Trump Finds Support After the Pittsburgh Massacre, From the Israeli Government
When President Trump arrived Tuesday at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh to pay his respects to the 11 victims of a mass shooting three days earlier, the only public official standing there to greet him was Israel’s ambassador to the United States, Ron Dermer.The symbolism was stark, and it didn’t end there. A few hours later, another prominent Israeli official, Naftali Bennett, took to Twitter to defend Mr. Trump from critics, including some in the American Jewish community, who said the president’s divisive, inflammatory language sowed the seeds for the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in the United States in recent memory…

Almost 1 in 5 Germans is ‘at risk of poverty’ despite record employment
Germany may be Europe’s biggest and strongest economy and is enjoying record employment, but one fifth of its citizens are struggling to make ends meet, a new study reveals.
Some 15.5 million people or 19 percent of the population in Germany were “at risk of poverty” or “social exclusion” in 2017, the Federal Statistics Office said.Even though the unemployment rate in Germany has fallen to record lows, many people still do not earn enough to pay their bills and keep themselves above the poverty line.

Amazon Raises Minimum Pay for Everyone—Except These Workers
After finishing up his day job at a charter school, Sherwin Karunungan heads to a nondescript warehouse in San Francisco that serves as a shipment hub for Amazon.com Inc. In a windowless breakroom, Karunungan presses a single button on his phone, over and over, to request a gig through Amazon Flex. The program lets anyone sign up to shuttle packages for the world’s largest online store using their own cars and get paid by the delivery. But first, they need to score some actual work. On a recent Tuesday night, a crowd of other workers are hunched nearby with their phones, all furiously tapping and swiping to refresh a sparse page of job offers.

Someone should print off copies of Marxist propaganda in Spanish and put incorrect covers on them and go down posing as humanitarian workers handing out books on American culture or whatever and turn the place into a leftist hotbed.

Bernie and Barbara: What’s Wrong With This Picture?
For starters, Barbara Lee did not support Bernie Sanders at the 2016 Democratic Convention. As a superdelegate, she cast her vote for Hillary Clinton. And she did that despite support for Bernie in the district she represents—California Congressional District 13—which includes Berkeley and Oakland. Bernie yard and window signs were more common than not in many D-13 neighborhoods, most of all in those two cities.

Barack Obama’s Great Tower of Nothing: Gentrification on a Presidential Level
In Chicago, a low but persistent rumbling is heard these days, especially on the South Side. It is Frederick Law Olmsted, America’s greatest landscape architect and the planner of what would become the city’s Jackson Park, turning in his grave and muttering Victorian imprecations against Barack Obama and his eponymous foundation.

Brazil: Why Did a Far-Right Demagogue Win the Election?
Bolsonaro's electoral victory is a setback for the working class. The task now is not to despair but rather to prepare for the battles to come. Bolsonaro won the second round of the Brazilian presidential election with 55 percent of the vote, defeating Haddad—the Workers’ Party (PT) candidate—who received 45 percent. Any hopes of a last-minute rally were dashed. This result is a setback for the working class and the poor. We need to understand what it means, what led to this situation and what strategy the workers’ movement should follow, faced with this reactionary government.

That's not addressing the issue, that's merely attacking the source, leading me to assume you cannot refute the content.
I don't. I'm sure that it's not just Israel and me that are opposed to how iran is governed - how human rights as we know them do not exist in countries that elected to sign up to the cairo declaration instead of the UN declaration…
…fucking 'zionist' ha ha ha
The quote layered over jeremy corbyn was not said by him, btw…
I'm not anything you'd label me as, i'm centrist af which means I get to laugh at all sides… thanks for the lols :D
