  1. "To counter this insidious attempt at #Nakba memoricide by U.S. politicians and others, it is instructive to review the archives of U.S. diplomats stationed in #Palestine and surrounding Arab countries who witnessed the Nakba unfold and reported back to the #StateDepartment on the magnitude and gravity of #Israel’s dispossession of Palestine’s indigenous inhabitants." - #JoshRuebner

  6. "The US actually understood quite early on that the partition plan as proposed by #UNSCOP was not workable and not feasible [...] The US did more than think about going back on partition. In March 1948 [...] the US actually proposed in the Security Council that an international trusteeship be appointed for #Palestine instead of partition." - #JoshRuebner

  8. "As Kamala Harris weighs another run in 2028, the #DemocraticParty faces a split over #Israel policy. A new report suggests it may have cost votes in 2024. With a base that has shifted dramatically, can the party keep up with what its voters now expect?"

  15. "There has perhaps never been a conflict anticipated by American and Israeli warmongers in this degree of detail, or for longer. [...] It is within reason to assume that the current joint operations against #Iran—dubbed Epic Fury—are one of the maximalist options from a long series of both individual and joint war plans whose specific pedigree go back to at least the 1990s."

  16. "What is at stake in this confrontation is the future of the entire region [...] Arab political elites have been so thoroughly subordinated that they stood idly by, or even aided and abetted, as #Israel slaughtered Palestinians by the tens of thousands, which gives some sense of what they hope to accomplish in #Iran."

  17. Good 🧵 by Sam Sacks about the already much hyped resignation of #JoeKent.

    Worth bearing in mind Kent's record in case he starts getting marketed as some kind of peacenik and making the rounds of podcasts à la Ray McGovern and Scott Ritter (who lots of "left" folk credulously package as "peaceniks" too...)

  18. "Adam Shatz is joined by Robert Malley and Esfandyar Batmanghelidj to discuss the chaos of #Trump’s #Iran strategy, whether the United States and #Israel are aligned in their objectives for the region, and what Iran’s future might look like if Trump decides to bring the conflict to an end in the near term."

  19. "While the war expands across the region, and the death toll mounts—including at least 180 people incinerated at a primary school in Minab, most of them young girls—the Democratic response to what could end up being the biggest geopolitical disaster of the 21st century is foot-dragging, silence, and sleepy, feigned opposition long after the deed is done."

  24. "The absence of justification is not incidental. It is a morbid symptom of an international system in crisis. The certainties of the United States’ hegemonic stewardship of the ‘international rules-based order’ have been deformed beyond recognition by the Gaza genocide, but no alternative architecture has cohered in their place."
