The Lebanese government has accused Israel of committing mass ecocide over the past several years: "The scale and intentionality of the damage to forests, agricultural lands, marine ecosystems, water resources, and atmospheric quality constitute what must be recognised as an act of ecocide, with consequences that extend far beyond immediate destruction.

Scorched Earth Policies Like in Gaza
The State Department ordered consular officers to ask every applicant for a visitor, student, or temporary-work visa two new questions: 1) "Have you experienced harm or mistreatment in your country of nationality or last habitual residence?" and 2) "Do you fear harm or mistreatment in returning there?" Applicants who answer "yes" to either must be denied a visa on the spot. The directive-- signed by USSECSTATE Marco Rubio and rooted in a 2025 Donald Trump executive order-- seeks to choke off what the administration calls "asylum abuse" at the front end of the mobility pipeline.

*** Texas Republicans in Utter Disarray Against Genuine Christian ***
Young master James Talarico (D) leads both good-for-nothing Republican Senate candidates in the polls.
The young Democrat has a three point lead over dinosaur Sen. John Cornyn (44% to 41%) and a five point lead over Islamophobe Attorney General Ken Paxton (46% to 41%).
