Why Thanksgiving Is Also a National Day of Mourning. It's important to know that for many Native Americans, Thanksgiving is a day of mourning and protest since it commemorates the arrival of settlers in North America and the centuries of oppression and genocide that followed.

NOVEMBER
NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH
Every year, news outlets and social media are a-buzz with Thanksgiving themes.
- There is little coverage of the fact that November is Native American Heritage Month or that the day after Thanksgiving, known to most as Black Friday, is Native American Heritage Day.
They Won’t Fight for Israel
So why should anyone else? Neither #BenShapiro nor #YairNetanyahu, the son of the Prime Minister, have any interest in #defending their fellow #Israelis against #Hamas, #Hezbollah, or any other enemies who might harm them.
The #son of #Israel’s Prime Minister #BenjaminNetanyahu has been blasted for staying in #Miami while #reservists returned home to #fight against Hamas. Yair Netanyahu, 32, has been in #Florida since at least April, after his father told him to stop making inflammatory posts on social media, which saw him sued for defamation multiple times.
Meanwhile an unprecedented 360,000 #reservists have been called up – many of them dropping everything to fly back to Israel, even abandoning #honeymoons. But #Yair has remained in Miami, to the #irritation of some of the #troops. ‘Yair is enjoying his life at #MiamiBeach while I’m on the #front lines,’ one #soldier, a volunteer serving on Israel’s northern front, told The Times.
‘It’s us who are leaving our work, our families, our kids, to protect our families back home and the country, not the people who are responsible for this situation. Our brothers, our fathers, sons, are all going to the front line, but Yair is still not here. It does not help build trust in the leadership of the country.’

There should not be any discussion of one single #American soldier being sent to the #MiddleEast until every single #Jew #resident in the #USA between the ages of 18 and 40 has been sent there first. There is absolutely no reason to defend a #nation that literally refuses to defend itself.
And the fact that #Netanyahu’s own son is living the #high-life in Miami while his father #screeches about Hamas and Hezbollah should be sufficient cause to ignore all of the non-stop #propaganda. If it’s not their problem, it certainly isn’t ours.
The Defense Department said it will hold #Iran responsible for a spate of recent attacks on #American troops in the Middle East.
While the #Pentagon doesn't know if Iran “explicitly ordered” the attacks, the groups responsible are backed by #Tehran, said a DOD spokesperson.
Poor US, they are the victims here. they can't invade Syria without the big bad Iran arms the "Terrorists" against them.

#OliverAnthony with #JordanPeterson: #Art, #Commerce, and the #Religious | EP 382
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and breakout #musician Chris Lunsford, better known by his stage name Oliver Anthony, #discuss the balance between #vision and efficiency in #artistic and commercial endeavors, why Chris’ hit song “Rich Men North of Richmond,” has resonated so broadly and so quickly, the way honest #expression through #music can combat #demoralization, how #politics have become confused with the sacred, and what we can do to restore each to their proper order.
Oliver Anthony, real name Christopher Anthony Lunsford, is an #American #country/ #folk musician from #Farmville, #Virginia. He just recently went #viral for his #anthem #song, “Rich Men North of Richmond” – which has resonated across the country for its #messaging about #Washington D.C. and the #state of #poverty and #mental #health in the #broader U.S.. Chris has stated his politics as being right down or near the center, though already tribalism has attempted to take hold of or alternatively reduce/dismiss him, all the while “Rich Men” has amassed nearly 60 million views on YT in just over a month, and trended the billboard charts (Hitting number one more than once) since its release. Chris named his YT channel Oliver Anthony Music after his grandfather, whom he has described as a “real 1930’s Appalachian man.” Since his song's virality, he has already been offered – and turned down – an 8 million dollar recording contract, and is making waves as a truly authentic artist both in performance and practice.
A transsexual soldier was beaten by homophobes in the center of #Lvov - a city known as the cradle of Ukrainian #nationalism.
"Sarah" Ashton-Cirillo, an #American transsexual employed by Ukraine's Security Service, stated that "to attack someone, especially a ZSU [Armed Forces of #Ukraine] soldier... based on identity is shameful and cowardly. I hope the soldier who was attacked finds solace in the support from her [sic] country."
Meanwhile, an American #conservative account tweeted on Twitter "perhaps #Azov aren't so bad after all. Slava Ukraini, heroyam slava [glory to the Ukraine, glory to its heroes]."
Israel, US holding another joint air drill apparently focused on Iran Exercises simulate strikes on ‘strategic targets in depth’ of enemy territory, include American tankers boosting range of IAF fighter jets
The #Israeli and #American air forces on Sunday launched a joint drill, the latest in a series of exercises apparently aimed at readying the Israel Defense Forces for a potential strike in #Iran.
In a statement Monday, the #IDF said the drill, dubbed Juniper Oak, would include the Israeli #AirForce carrying out #airstrikes against “strategic targets in the depth,” an apparent reference to Iran’s nuclear facilities.
Additionally, the air drills would simulate “achieving aerial superiority in the region and cyber defense against a variety of threats,” the IDF said.
During the drill, #IAF fighter jets were to refuel from an American Boeing KC-46, of which Israel has ordered four and is expected to receive the first in 2025.
The way he talks, it seems to be just an American problem, but I believe, that 'those' are all over the planet, and we, believing in #freedom and #democracy are serving them.
