"Freedom Flotilla volunteers who were abducted and jailed by Israeli authorities while in international waters have reported being subjected to sexual abuse and torture while in Israeli captivity. Some 430 Samaritans, who were held after Israeli forces raided the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla, were deported to Istanbul on Thursday evening.

  • One of the many victims: "IDF soldiers beat us up. They kicked us and punched us and shouted Welcome to Israel'."
  • Miriam Azem, from the Israeli human rights group Adalah, reported that one of the volunteers "was forced to strip naked and run while guards laughed."
    Israeli National Security Advisor Itamar Ben-Gvir taunted the captured humanitarians. He is not a good human being.
    The kind-hearted members of Israeli human rights groups Adalah and B'Tselem are powerless against the loathsome ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu and his sinister, murderous junta.


    California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) proclaimed a state of emergency in Orange County following a massive chemical leak at the GKN Aerospace manufacturing plant in Garden Grove.

    At least 40,000 people evacuated in this "unprecedented" situation


    Unable to cheat at golf at his health department-sanctioned Bedminster resort in NJ because of heavy rain and opting out of attending his good-for-nothing son's wedding in the Bahamas this weekend, Dummkopf Trumpf unleashed a maelstrom of idiotic AI-generated images confirming that his cognitive skills are in deep irreversible decline and/or he is mixing medications.

    The morbidly obese draft-dodging geriatric pedophile may also be a stroke victim
    The 25th Amendment to the US Constitution specifically addresses the issue of replacing a POTUS because of physical or mental infirmity or incapacitation.

    NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's (D) administration has mandated over two dozen policy changes aimed at bolstering NYC's sanctuary laws protecting immigrants, including requiring city agencies to provide more training for workers and stepped-up reporting of interactions with federal immigration officials.

    US authorities have charged Iraqi national Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi (32) for allegedly plotting to assassinate Ivanka Trump in order to avenge IRGC-QF General Qasem Soleimani, a beloved Iranian military leader who Donald Trump recklessly ordered murdered by a drone strike in Baghdad Iraq on 3 Jan 2020.

    In Mafia parlance, Dummkopf Trumpf "crossed a line" and the unforgiving IRGC-QF and MOIS will maintain a KGB-like personal vendetta against him and members of the Trumpf Crime Family (TCF) for some time to come.

    In Gaza, the death toll has now risen to 72,834 human beings; 20,179 children; 12,500 women. Since 7 Oct 2023, a staggering 172,779 Palestinians have been wounded or maimed by the IDF in an area the size of Philadelphia, PA.

    The peace-loving, hardworking American taxpayer is sick and tired of sending billions of dollars every year to this Pariah nation/Rogue state that offers world class universal healthcare to all its residents while Americans languish in an insidious for-profit system with the effects of the Big Beautiful Bill already starting to impact poor and vulnerable people this year.



    Last century my friend in the IDF and I scuba-dived in the Red Sea (Eilat).

    On the seabed lies a Jordanian warship that sank in one of the wars-- probably 1967.

    Undersea death trap

    I don't recall the thought of going into the shipwreck itself passed our young military minds.

    Scuba-diving, and sky-diving for that matter, are just a bit more dangerous than the industry and vendors will let on.

    "Mandelbaum! Mandelbaum!"


    On top of widespread pillaging by the undisciplined IDF, Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon killed ten people, including six paramedics and a Syrian girl, Lebanon's Health Ministry reported. The updated toll in Lebanon since Israel invaded is 3,111 killed and 9,342 wounded.

    Israeli media reported that in Syria, IDF troops stole a herd of around 250 goats and smuggled them into the occupied West Bank.

    In 2025, the hardworking American taxpayer sent wealthy, nuclear-armed Israel $12 billion in military funding to murder Arabs; that amount could have instead paid for free or low-cost healthcare for 3.5 million children in the US.

    While Israelis enjoy world class universal healthcare, Americans are trapped in an insidious for-profit healthcare system that results in terrible outcomes and tens of thousands of personal bankruptcies every year caused by exorbitant medical bills.

    US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.
