Yemeni Security Services released video confessions of the group of 18 spies (the so-called "Force 400") that was caught spying for America and "israel" in western Yemen.

The spies confessed to being recruited to carry out intelligence, sabotage, and surveillance tasks such as monitoring missile, drone, and ship launch sites so that they could be targeted by American-British warplanes, under the leadership of the wanted spy Ammar Afash.

Spy Mohammed Mahnish said that he would relay information about missiles, drones, tanks, and sites when Ansarallah was targeting "israeli" ships, using a coded language (i.e "bees" to refer to drones and "cows" for tanks). They were also asked to monitor the increase in the number of new fighters to the Yemeni Armed Forces and the people's acceptance of them.

The spies were recruited at various times, some as early as October and some in December, according to their confessions. Spy Yusser Wahban said that he was paid 300 Saudi Riyals ($80 USD) to sell out his people.

Lieutenant General Al-Ruwaishan confirmed that the enemy's targeting of the internal front will fail in the face of the people's awareness and cohesion with the Yemeni Armed Forces, stressing that they are still working to reach enemy cells, with more to be announced soon. He affirmed that Yemen's position towards Palestine is unaffected by these security conspiracies.

The Nation:

Jerry Nadler, the most senior Jewish member of the US House of Representatives, who represents a New York City district with one of the largest Jewish populations in the United States, has for decades supported every effort to “genuinely counter the scourge of antisemitism.” But he did not support the bipartisan Antisemitism Awareness Act, which the House of Representatives passed Wednesday by a 320-91 vote.

Because, says the former chair of the House Judiciary Committee, “this legislation threatens freedom of speech, one of our most cherished values, while doing nothing to combat antisemitism.”

In particular, the House bill, adopts a definition of antisemitism that could be used to penalize criticism of Zionism, which many Jews oppose, and the actions of the state of Israel. Many Jews have condemned Israel’s policies, including independent US Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, who on Thursday warned Congress against accepting an argument made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “that equated criticism of his government’s illegal and immoral war against the Palestinian people with antisemitism.” Sanders, who lost much of his family in the Holocaust, counseled against falling for claims that “if you are protesting, or disagree with what Netanyahu and his extremist government are doing in Gaza, you are an antisemite.”

“That is an outrageous statement from a leader who is clearly trying—and I have to tell you, he seems to be succeeding with the American media—trying to deflect attention away from the horrific policies that he is pursuing that created an unprecedented humanitarian disaster,” said the senator.

The New Arab:

US business leaders have threatened pro-Palestinian students taking part in campus protests with denial of job opportunities and mortgages, warning that AI surveillance technology would be able to identify them.

Oil giant ExxonMobil's CEO Darren Woods said in an interview last week that he is "not interested" in hiring students who take part in US campus protests against Israel's war on Gaza.

"We wouldn't look to bring folks like that into our company and if that action or those protests reflect the values of the campuses where they're doing it, we wouldn't be interested in recruiting students from those campuses," Woods told CNBC on 26 April.

It takes McCarthyism to a whole new level.

Electronic Intifada:

A bank enabling Israel’s war crimes has issued a major loan for the purchase of a Dublin hotel owned by Bono and The Edge from the rock band U2.

The loan – worth more than $45 million – was announced this week at a time when the death toll resulting from Israel’s latest bombardment of Gaza is rising rapidly.

The deal means that U2 – a group that constantly preaches about peace and nonviolence – is now tangled up with a bank profiting from Israel’s violations of international law.

Not all the Irish are on the right side of history.
