New report from me: Starlink’s Secret War: How Musk Is Powering a Covert Campaign Against Iran

By actively partnering with the U.S. government to smuggle communications hardware into Iran, Elon Musk is once again aiding Washington’s attempts at regime change. This fits into a long pattern of both American efforts to dislodge the government in Tehran and Musk’s close collaboration with the U.S. national security state, helping it to achieve its objectives around the world.

Argentina Announces Privatization of State Water, With Israeli State Firm Principal Beneficiary

The government of Argentina have announced plans to privatize the country's water resources, selling it off to foreign firms.

Israeli state-owned water company, Mekorot — accused of complicity in war crimes against Palestine — is in pole position to take advantage.Mekorot has already made confidential deals with 12 Argentinian provinces.

The move is part of far-right "anarcho-capitalist" president Javier Milei's fire sale of state assets. Milei's administration has fired tens of thousands of public employees, shuttered 13 government ministries, and removed price controls on rent and key goods. As a result, poverty has drastically increased.

Internationally, Milei has been among Israel's loudest supporters, designating Hamas as a terrorist group and flying to Israel to support his "dear friend" Benjamin Netanyahu.

Israel could not be doing what it is doing without significant support from the West. And they have found some very powerful allies in Silicon Valley. Chief among these is Google, which has allowed the Israeli government to use its platforms to target tens of millions of Europeans with propaganda.

I spoke with Mnar Adley about the collaboration between Israel and Google.
