🇮🇱🇵🇸 Exactly two years ago, the Palestinians decided for the first time to launch a counter-attack to the brutal bombardment of Gaza and the West Bank in previous years in the conflict that has lasted since 1948, when Israel, with the help of the US, UK and others, occupied a large area of Palestine, expelled Palestinians from their homes, crowded two million of them into Gaza and enclosed them with a high fence and declared the occupied territory as their state called Israel.

mexicans are now living in terror of ICE rappelling through their apartment window and you're laughing?
Feds rappelled from Black Hawk helicopters during Chicago raid to target alleged Tren de Aragua gang members.
The operation involved around 300 federal officers.
Israel's contract to pay influencers some $7,000 per post is running "right now," journalist Nick Cleveland-Stout tells Glenn Greenwald.
"We don't actually know as of right now who the influencers are," he says. "There's between 14 and 18 influencers that are part of this program."
Cleveland-Stout says he thinks this is "the first real smoking gun" that the Jewish state is "paying influencers to post on behalf of Israel."

🇺🇸 We have our first break in the matrix: Oracle.
A month ago Oracle stock soared after forecasting extraordinary growth: "We signed four multi-billion-dollar contracts with three different customers in Q1," said Oracle CEO, Safra Catz.
$455B in contract backlog. Multi-billion-dollar deals.
But according to The Information, newly surfaced internal documents paint a very different picture.
Oracle’s AI cloud margins are razor-thin around 14 cents of profit for every $1 in Nvidia server rentals.
That’s less than most retail businesses, and in some cases, the company’s actually losing money. The data shows margins fluctuating between 10% and 20%, averaging just 16%.
And reportedly, Oracle lost nearly $100 million last quarter renting out Blackwell chips, the very product driving its “AI boom.”
