Tanks Repulsed in Lebanon: Invasion Stalls On Second Day

Check Us Out on Patreon:   / colonialoutcasts   and sorry for the bad internet today... What is the overall strategic situation in Palestine/Lebanon? On one hand, just like Gaza, Israel is spiraling into war in Lebanon without a strategy or clear goals, and even if they wanted to invade, they can’t. Second: The U.S. faces a strategic dilemma as Israel escalates attacks on Hezbollah, risking broader conflict. While Washington seeks to prevent war, its constrained by limited policy options, political timing, and Netanyahu's brinkmanship. In short this madness won’t end any time soon, but I don’t see it getting out of control.

Check us out on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcasts The fighting between Israel and Hezbollah has escalated for nearly two weeks. It began when Israeli intelligence detonated thousands of pagers, killing and injuring thousands Hezbollah operatives and civilians in an operation that would have been roundly condemned as a catastrophic act of terror had Hezbollah conducted the same operation against Israel. It continued with detonating walky-talkies at a series of funerals for the people killed the day before.

Thee Jerusalem Gangster - The Life Story of Emad U. Deen

Prior to October 7th, the only bulwark against Israel’s complete strangle of the narrative in America’s culture was the Black liberation movement and the stories of American Palestinians. The story behind every Palestinian who immigrated to the US is often a story of tragedy and resourcefulness. What makes Emad’s life story so unique and powerful is that it connects the struggles of American street life with the struggles of Palestinian oppression by the Zionist state through ironic parallels. Emad was born in Jerusalem a year before the ‘67 War to a strong mother of faith, a father who was a resistance fighter abused and tortured by Israel and in turn became abusive to his family. After immigrating to the United States, Emad gets involved in the notorious gang life of Chicago, is incarcerated into a brutal prison system and finds Islam. Emad U Deen is harnessing the wisdom he has accumulated from his tumultuous but fascinating life as a Palestinian immigrant and Chicago Saint to fight for his people facing extermination and ethnic cleansing and helping young kids find purpose in a world deprived of integrity and infested with top-down hypocrisy. We discuss the cycle of abuse, how the legacy of trauma is imposed on the innocent from the abused, making the abused the abuser and the importance of breaking that cycle. We also dive into the glory of Islam’s legacy throughout the world and the coming revolution which appears to be on the horizon in Muslim nations who are under regimes corrupted by Western empire.
