Hamra, Beirut where last night’s Israeli strike took place hours before the ceasefire. Looks like it hit a currency exchange shop.

Many displaced families in the commercial neighborhood have already packed up to return to southern Lebanon and Beirut southern suburbs.

From the Editor Published in Journal of Palestine Studies (Vol. 53, No. 3, 2024)

Our lives have been a one long intractable war interrupted by short intervals of ceasefires and not the other way around. We will never know peace until liberation from Israel‘s oppression and domination.

truly thrilled to find you on here god knows you are missed on fascist bird site!

This is the musical arm of the e/acc movement, it’s apocalyptic kleptocracy in aims of an accelerated downfall to further fund more profitable surveillance miltech and using AI to deny ppl healthcare, much like Daniel Ek’s other startup ventures. You need to grasp there is no apolitical media now.
