WATCH NOW: 'Gaza: Doctors Under Attack' – The Full Film They Didn't Want You To See zeteo.com/p/watch-now-...

This is unbelievable. I'm ashamed to be a member of the human race that can participate in these atrocities. Sickening. Criminal.

Gaza and the Palestinians are being systematically erased. Do Israelis expect us to believe that every citizen is Hamas. This is utter genocide of an entire innocent population to justify revenge on a radicalized few. Indiscriminate retribution against women and children, who are flesh and blood like your own loved ones.

Netanyahu is undeniably a war criminal deserving of the harshest of punishments. That so many enthusiastically condone and follow his orders is a scary reality.

That America's Commander in Chief can witness the carnage and not only assist in its execution, but gleefully see the devastation as a golden real estate opportunity speaks volumes of the perilous times ahead for the US.

That Trump can openly support another attempted genocide perpetrated by Putin in Ukraine, further demonstrates his corrupt criminality and lack of a soul.

Whenever I think of the despicable actions of Adolph Hitler in the past, I cannot help myself from condemning Netanyahu, Putin and Trump as the Hitlers of the present.

I just finished reading Chris Hedge’s recent post regarding the dissolution of American society. He posits that our nation is well down the road to failure in the same way that Rome fell. It took many years for Rome to fall. In our current age of mass surveillance, instant access to the populace by the state via the internet and the cell phone, the fall of the United States is complete. I believe that there is, at this point, no turning back from the total breakdown of society.

The genocide in Gaza is nearly complete. The death of all those who remain there is just a matter of time. Netanyahu will arrive here next week, and the complicity

of the people of the United States in the mass murder of over 200 thousand fellow human beings will be on full display for the world to see. But it will not matter, nor will it change the course of the extermination.

I regret having to write this.

It often takes reaching that point where we realize—like those who recognized too late what was happening in 1930s Germany—that we're watching something unthinkable unfold before our eyes. That sick, helpless feeling so many have today about the direction we're heading.

While protests are necessary and valuable, we need more! We need forceful leadership with an integrated federal, state, and local strategy that includes: a comprehensive 2028 playbook for returning the country to decency and humanity; a focus on elections (if they still occur as we know them); expansive public outreach across social channels; continued legal initiatives (though now hampered by a compromised Supreme Court); strategic fundraising for the most critical causes and those directly threatened by current policies; and other innovative tactical components.

We need a multi-dimensional, multi-functional resistance infrastructure to make this happen.

The question is: How do we build it? The talent exists and the anger is brewing—we need to channel both into coordinated action before it's too late.

I am curious, aren't the atrocities being committed with the immigrants, cutting basic needs for citizens including food and medical care , fall under crimes against humanity?

Jim, who's the creative genius that did the cartoon of SCOTUS? Super great article, and as always, I agree with you completely.

Unfortunately the rest of the world hates the USA now, and who can blame them! We have to figure out how to rescue ourselves. Jim, you're the right person at this time to help us see clearly and act wisely.

We love our American neighbours, Mark.

The trouble is that no one wants to take on the country with the biggest military industrial complex in human history. Even if every democracy works together, it’s still a one sided fight to save you all.

I sincerely hope that the Americans can work together to shut down this regime via a strike or something similar.

The key is to cut off the money that supports the regime. Trump’s regime is part of a transnational organized criminal syndicate, and the tentacles are absolutely everywhere. Crypto just makes it harder to see the cash flow but it’s there.

I agree - Jim has consistently had the right instincts on this. I believe that’s why “they” have been after you, Jim.

I live in one of the reddest counties in SE Michigan. It’s always in play. The horrible bill will be devastating to this county. People are already getting mad about the stupid ICE actions. They didn’t vote for ICE to grab people married to Americans or people in mixed American families or parents of American military. That’s NOT what Trump and DHS told them ICE was going after. Now Trump is threatening to have, ICE threaten Americans, while cutting SNAP, Medicaid and Veterans Benefits???

Republicans are playing with a Grizzly that is starting to come out of hibernation and they are standing between that bear and food - without a weapon.

And in the end Hitler blamed his own people for being weak and losing the war. I could see taco breath doing as much.

"The cruelty isn’t the point, it’s the death. This is a racist, genocidal regime . . ." I've been waiting to see the word genocide used in describing what's been coming at us since Project 2025 and the second trump regime. Thanks for having the honesty to do so, Jim.

Trump's scapegoating of the left has been a sustained effort to dehumanize us. His supporters have been ginned up to the point where they believe acts of extreme violence will be justifiable. First, they came for the immigrants, and next they will come for us, that's their final solution.

Rome is burning, and we're playing fiddles. There are no guardrails; they have been systematically dismantled. Great work, Jim. You are a warrior. Thing is we need millions more.

As Trump incites MAGA and MAGA targets first responders like the IDF does in Israel, our hometown police are being forced to make difficult choices every day. Their brotherhood includes paramedics, firefighters and ER workers, and if MAGA wants to turn America into Gaza I think our locals will unite against that. However, Trump's cabal may plagiarize the Nazis again here and use this moment to neutralize MAGA (our SA), which is a potential armed threat to a flip-flopping ttrant like Trump. Trump aims to have Netenyahu-like control of the police and military through DHS, and the power treat his enemies as Bibi does the Palestinians. When I think of an American Kristallnacht happening, I would not be surprised to be on that list along with many MAGAs.

Keep in mind, when the shit hits the inevitable fan, you have allies on both of your borders. Canada and Mexico will have to get involved.

Canada and Mexico will get involved but to protect themselves from Trump. I live within an hour from the Canadian border. My grandfather came in from 🇨🇦. They are “elbows up” against this administration. That’s why King Charles paid a visit - to make it clear to Trump - whose family he is threatening.

If/ when the US ends up in a civil war, which I don’t rule out unfortunately, Canada and Mexico will have to get involved. If it gets to that point, Trump will be thinking of creating The United States Of North America. I’m Canadian. I know I will be doing everything in my limited power to assist my American neighbours survive the criminal in the Oval Office.

You are right on the money. I'll say it in plain English. This insane motherfucker needs to be stopped at all costs. America is almost out of time. Stop fucking around. Get organized and shut the damn country down in protest. Help your communities manage the tough times ahead. Shut down the money flow to those that consider you disposable.
