Even candidates funded by AIPAC are turning against Israel.
 
Maxine Dexter won in Oregon with AIPAC money & went to Congress, compared Gaza to the Holocaust & voted for Rashida Tlaib's bill calling it genocide.
 
Chris Menefee won with AIPAC backing. AIPAC tweeted congratulating him. He then voted for the bill to stop weapons going to Israel.
 
James Fishback in Florida is openly saying he doesn't want to give $385 million to Israel & wants to keep it in Florida.
 
Israeli media says this may be the final Congress & president willing to listen to Israel because they have lost a generation of Americans about to come into power.

UEFA says FIFA crossed a "red line" by letting USA striker Folarin Balogun avoid an automatic one-match ban after his red card, arguing the rules are clear and "cannot be made subject to exceptions."

Record-distance strike: Ukraine hit Omsk oil refinery — the largest in Russia — located 2,700 km from Ukrainian territory.

Zohran Mamdani was 20 points behind Cuomo. The turning point was him saying he wouldn't visit Israel & stay in New York.
 
Adam Hamway in New Jersey & Chris Rabb in Pennsylvania won the primary as anti-AIPAC candidates.
 
Anna Lilia Mejia beat the incumbent Malinowski - despite AIPAC backing him - running as pro-Palestinian & anti-genocide.
 
In France, a petition protesting the bill equating criticism of Israel with antisemitism became the second most-signed petition in French history. The bill failed.
 
In Germany, Scholz supported Israel on every front - then quickly reversed on the Iran war & refused Trump's request to involve due to domestic pressure.
 
The shift is structural. Being pro-Israel was once a political asset. It has now become a political liability.

Ukraine's RAM-2X kamikaze drones destroyed two launchers of Russian S-400 Triumf air defense system in Bryansk region.

NOW: NATO's Rutte arrives in Ankara for the NATO Summit.

Netanyahu:

Iran is a nation of about 90 million. About 80% of them hate this regime.

But you still have quite a few million that they can bring to the streets.

And they are screaming, "Death to Trump" and "Death to me," of course.

Sami Hamdi | Geopolitical Analyst | The International Interest:
 

Ta-Nehisi Coates went to visit a Palestinian woman to vote for Kamala Harris & she told him Israel killed 200 of her family members.
 
He said convincing her to vote for Harris would have required giving up some of his own humanity so he didn't try to.
 
He said telling people to set aside genocide for "other issues" is something no African-American would have accepted during slavery.
 
In the UK, Starmer won a landslide - then resigned after council elections, because people no longer believe in a vision that tolerates genocide.
 
Politics is becoming more humanized. People are now asking candidates where they stand on moral issues.

FULL INTERVIEW

Q: Why is that government still standing in Iran?

Netanyahu: Because it has a few hundred thousand goons who kill, murder in broad daylight, and at night they murder their own people.

Netanyahu on Trump:

We see eye to eye just about everything, and sometimes as happens among the best of allies — and we are the best of allies — there can be differences of opinion.

We're your model ally.

Netanyahu on his upcoming visit to the U.S:

Well, we haven't yet set a date for the visit.

WATCH: Netanyahu on Türkiye:

I don't think they should be given F-35s or the engines for their fighter jets, because that'll upset the power balance in the Middle East, which is ultimately guaranteed by Israeli air superiority and also by, I think, America's posture in the Middle East.

Netanyahu on Türkiye:

They finance Hamas, they harbor Hamas. They roll out the red carpet for Hamas.

They're in fact supporting the bad guys.

Omsk is Russia's largest oil refinery, processing 21–22 million tons of oil per year.

It's now on fire.

Netanyahu on Türkiye:

Türkiye didn't lift a finger to help you in Iran.

We did. We fought next to your great soldiers.

We forget how rapidly the world changes. Assad was supposed to be there forever. Syria today is on a different path - toward rebuilding.
 
Ben Ali of Tunisia was supposed to be there forever but a street vendor burned himself in protest & sparked an Arab Spring that toppled regimes across the region.
 
The outcomes weren't always what people hoped for. But the dictators fell - when nobody thought they would.
 
The natural progression of history is that the oppressed always wins. Even when you least expect it.

In 1991 Mladić & Karadžić said there will be no Muslims left by the end of the war. But they ended up in the Hague.
 
Muslims of Bosnia are still there today, rebuilding & returning to ethnically cleansed areas, surviving a genocide against all odds.
 
You don't predict the future by who holds power today. You predict it by one simple metric: injustice doesn't last.
 
Israel tried to colonize Palestine for 78 years - with military superiority, British then American backing, superior technology.
 
But it still hasn't taken all of Palestine & is stuck in existential crisis, losing support because Palestinians keep standing in the way.
 
The real measure of power is not having weapons, but a people's willingness to sacrifice.
 
They sacrificed in Algeria - it became free. They sacrificed in Egypt - it became free. They are sacrificing in Palestine & it is destined to be free.
