Report: Whistleblower says US has taken no action on several American citizens killed by the Israeli military.

Steve Gabavics was sent to investigate the 2022 murder of journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who the IDF fired at 16 times while she was wearing a “press" vest.

Gabavics found that Israel intentionally killed Abu Akleh, but the US labelled it “accidental” to appease Israel.

ICE hasn't gone after 1000s of “white” undocumented immigrants, only those coded “brown” or “black."

Ie, "Stephen Miller’s project is a racialist one, not purely about immigration or undocumented immigration."

One of the symbols of whiteness in the US is Europeanness. But Hitler said Italians weren't white. He initially rebuffed Mussolini, preferring to ally with Britain if possible.

Axis: Bold As Love

December 1, 1967 ~ Axis: bold as love is born. The album is released just 7 months after Are You Experienced and critics and fans both took notice. The title track features the first recording of stereo phasing and one of my favorite Hendrix guitar solos. It's #92 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" Listen to Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix on Amazon Music ... #jimihendrix #axisboldaslove #jimihendrixexperience #60srock #rock…

Probably better because why should we subject our brave warriors to propaganda about stopping 8-12 wars, prices are the lowest in the history of man and ...ramble incoherent diatribes about political opponents that has no place in military events ( by a draft dodger no less).

Call it a blessing and thanks for your service!
