    So, the US is willing to suffocate the Iranian people over the perceived threat of nuclear activity, but sees no problem with cozying up to the brutal Saudi regime, who is reportedly producing nuclear fuel?? 🤔 Talk about a double standard.

    Lol. Sen. Ted Cruz at hearing on China asks what the State Dept is going to stop lithium from Bolivia, Argentina and Chile from getting into the hands of “predatory Chinese companies.” I guess he means as opposed to predatory US companies???

    You know how with these webinars, you can see the books people have on their shelves? I know it makes the speaker look smart, but do you think that keeping so many books instead of passing them on might be considered a form of hoarding?

    As Trump woos Israel, Bahrain, and the UAE in DC, Palestinians are bombed and killed for simply existing. What could better illustrate the reality of these "peace" deals?

    Israel bombed the besieged Gaza Strip overnight as the UAE and Bahrain signed normalisation deals

    Let’s be clear. Any peace deal with Israel that does not include Palestinians is not a peace deal. Period.

    It’s shameful to see Arab “leaders” from UAE and Bahrain join Trump and Netanyahu in betraying Palestinians. No talk of illegal settlements, home demolitions, the siege of Gaza. In “normalizing” relations with Israel, they are normalizing Israeli apartheid.

    So weird to see apartheid Israel leader Netanyahu with reps from Gulf dictatorships sign a peace deal while outside the region (White House) and WITHOUT PALESTINIANS. What a sham.

    At ceremony, foreign minister of Bahrain talks about peace, while he represents a dictatorship that imprisons, tortures and executes dissidents. are a sham.

    Interesting that neither leaders of Bahrain or UAE went to the White House ceremony for signing the —just their foreign ministers. Perhaps they were embarrassed to stand next to Netanyahu and sign a fake “peace deal” that throws Palestinians under the bus?

    At ceremony, UAE foreign minister actually said that signing this agreement with Israel will allow UAE to stand by the Palestinian people. WHHHATTT? Palestinians oppose this fake “peace deal.”

    Some advice to the Emirates: Instead of signing a fake peace deal with Israel that actually harms Palestinians, they should make a peace deal in Yemen to stop that horrific war.
