    As has been noted, this is more comprehensible than actual Judith Butler.

    Here's a real Aya from Gaza, and what she's learned at her UNRWA school:

  • A necessary fiction

    — in the Oval Office itself. If you must lie, and sometimes you must, it may be best to lie bigly. This is a strange form of leadership but it is leadership nonetheless.

    I very much doubt that Starmer sees any of this as a humiliation. He's a lawyer by training: he's used to this kind of necessary prevarication. 

  • Exporting untraceable drones to the Middle East and Africa

    g-left: 40px”>According to the source, North Korea is eyeing Syria, Iran, and other long-time military cooperation partners as major drone export markets, along with Yemen’s Houthi rebels and armed groups in Africa. The regime has also approached Russia, suggesting significant demand for North Korean drones.

    North Korea is developing various strategies to conceal its role as the manufacturer when exporting these weapons, aiming to avoid detection by the international community.

    “There was an order early this year not to include manufacturing numbers or markings on the drones,” the source said. “This was to avoid leaving evidence that they were made in North Korea.”

    Additionally, the North Korean authorities have planned to disguise weapon shipments by exporting drone components through multiple channels for assembly at their final destinations, rather than shipping fully-assembled drones. According to the source, North Korea has frequently used this method for past arms exports.

    Payment methods are also becoming more covert. North Korea particularly favors cryptocurrency payments, attempting to sell arms using Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Monero to avoid transaction tracking.

    North Korea further evades international surveillance by using overseas front companies to complicate transaction trails.

    “Munitions Industry Department officials quietly boast that selling drones while circumventing sanctions is their specialty,” the source said. “They’re constantly developing new methods to avoid international detection.”

    This is not good news.

  • Hamas propaganda at the BBC

    David Collier – the journalist who broke the story about that BBC Gaza documentary – has another piece today on the Beeb and its Gaza coverage…This is what terrorist propaganda looks like:

    Just a few weeks after the BBC were forced to take down a documentary because of Hamas family ties to the narrator – the BBC anti-Israel factory has churned out another classic.

    In this latest example, the BBC disgracefully whitewash two terrorist families in order to portray Israel as bloodthirsty child killers. It is a classic antisemitic smear.

    The BBC article in question covered Israel’s renewed attack on Gaza a few days ago. The Hamas propaganda arm works quickly, and following the attacks the news channels became full of claims of hundreds of dead – with an emphasis as always on children…

    The BBC cannot help itself – and taking its cues from news channels that support the ‘resistance’, it jumped swiftly into action. The end product was a piece written by Jon Donnison that relied on two grieving fathers – both with children who were killed in the Israeli strikes.

    Jon Donnison, has a long history of ‘missteps‘ when it comes to reporting on Israel. And this piece is a classic of its type:

      • It is driven by the ignorance and anti-Israel bias of the journalist
      • The article makes important factual errors (which always lean towards demonising Israel)
      • Focuses on grieving parents and dead children (to break everyone’s heart)
      • And then lays the blame for all of the death and destruction on Israel (so people can be sure where to point their anger)

    The truth, as Collier goes on to demonstrate, is that the BBC presented this as a case of two innocent and grieving families torn apart by Israeli army thuggery, when in fact these were two terrorist households precisely targeted by the IDF. 

    The BBC even let one father talk about how the children wanted to grow up to be doctors. The Hamas PR agency could not have scripted it any better. The BBC may just as well be spokespeople for the Gazan terrorists.

    Too many red lines have been crossed. It goes way beyond just the BBC – and it is spreading poison deep into the veins of British society. We need an urgent independent inquiry set up NOW to investigate just how deeply our own media organisations have been turned into propaganda arms of radical Islamic terror groups.

  • “He’s super smart”

    d "straight up" with him. Putin told him, he added, that he had prayed for Trump after an assassination attempt against him last year. He also said Putin had commissioned a portrait of the US president as a gift and Trump was "clearly touched by it".

    During the interview, Witkoff repeated various Russian arguments, including that Ukraine was "a false country" and asked when the world would recognise occupied Ukrainian territory as Russian.

    Witkoff is leading the US ceasefire negotiations with both Russia and Ukraine but he was unable to name the five regions of Ukraine either annexed or partially occupied by Russian forces.

    Another of Trump's army of incompetents.

  • At the South Pyongan Province annual spring agricultural tool exhibition

    11pt”>According to a source in South Pyongan Province, the annual spring agricultural tool exhibition in North Korea’s farming sector was once again conducted as a mere formality this year, drawing criticism for providing no actual benefit to agricultural production or farm household income.

    This year’s agricultural tool exhibition was reportedly branded as “the worst ever.” The exhibition was not only small in scale, but the agricultural tools on display were uniformly old ones that had been hastily repaired or simply repainted.

    At a time when the leadership is cracking down on corruption, the responsible officials were predictably dismissed from their positions.

    They can count themselves lucky they weren't shot.

    However, among ordinary citizens, there were sympathetic voices saying, “In these difficult times, even maintaining appearances is challenging.”

    In reality, “formalism” has become chronic in North Korea. The authorities impose unrealistic demands, forcing those on the ground to obsess over ceremonies and procedures. Local officials, working with limited resources, have simply been going through the motions of implementing directives.

    Meanwhile, the Workers’ Party continues to pressure local officials to reduce their “formalistic working attitude,” creating a disconnect.

    They have to do things a certain way, implementing party directives, yet they have to do it spontaneously. It's a hard one…but they'll get there in the end. True freedom comes with obeying the party. "Freedom is slavery".

  • At St Helier hospital

    text:

    The convicted paedophile, ‘Mr X’, is in a high security male prison after multiple convictions for luring boys into sex acts while pretending to be a teenage girl on social media.

    After refusing to refer to Mr X as a ‘she’ while on duty, Jennifer Melle was racially abused and physically threatened.

    Instead of supporting her, however, Epsom and St Helier University Hospital Trust has abandoned Jennifer and treated her like the criminal.

    The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) has also said Jennifer is ‘a potential risk’ for not using Mr X’s preferred ‘gender identity.’

    The story is the latest in a series of cases where NHS policy supports trans ideology over biological reality. It also follows the publication of the Sullivan report this week which revealed that the police are allowing criminals to ‘self-identify’ their gender on official records.

    In this case, policy has led, in the name of inclusivity, to the NHS siding with a paedophile convicted of serious offences, while pretending to be the opposite sex, over members of staff with Christian and gender-critical beliefs.

    Supported by the Christian Legal Centre, the case Jennifer has now launched against the Trust on the grounds of harassment, discrimination and human rights’ breaches, is believed to be unprecedented.

    In response to her claims, NHS lawyers have said that Christian beliefs Mis holds, that we are born male and female, are ‘not worthy of respect in a democratic society.’
