Yup. And no one is talking about the theft of 250 million acres of public land, either. Netanyahu and Trump are both bombing Iran for political reasons and blaming it on nukes that probably don’t exist.
Of course they don’t exist, US intelligence even said so. The fact that there is zero radiation measured after the attacks shows there wasn’t even any nuclear bomb producing equipment in the areas.
The public lands thing is breaking my heart. I hope they’re used by Magas and they now can’t use them anymore. The one in Washington State is definitely like that.
It’s so sad! I can’t stop crying about it. Hiking is my entire life. I live in Washington and looked at an interactive map of the land they’re trying to sell. All of my favorite spots are in danger.
If you look at the map you’ll see how stupid it is… they’re cutting everything into tiny pieces so that even the land they don’t sell will lose it’s recreational value. The PCT will likely be completely ruined because of this. The way they’re cutting it up… there’s no logic to it. They’re doing this to hurt us.
I hope it’s like in Florida when they tried to do the same thing for golf courses and the public came in and shot it down. We have to get louder, Magas won’t like this either.
I’m willing to stand in front of a bulldozer if it comes down to that.
The thing in Florida is encouraging, although that was at the State level rather than Federal. I’m sure there are organizations who are going to oppose this… if this happens it will be irreversible and will effectively ruin western states, and put a huge dent in local economies. This will also hurt the people who don’t hike. People come to the western US from all over the world to use our public land.
People don’t understand what’s happening, there are a lot of people willing to stand in front of bulldozers. This is their technique:
“The opposition party is the media,” Steve Bannon, who helped run Trump’s 2016 campaign, told PBS Frontline five years ago. “And the media can only — because they’re dumb and they’re lazy — they can only focus on one thing at a time.”
So the solution, per Bannon? Overwhelm them.
“All we have to do is flood the zone,” he said. “Every day we hit them with three things. They’ll bite on one, and we’ll get all of our stuff done, bang, bang, bang. These guys will never — will never be able to recover. But we’ve got to start with muzzle velocity.”
They’re selling public land (trying to, anyway) to the highest bidder, with no rules about how the land will be used. Expect private golf courses, Airbnbs, luxury summer homes, etc.

The Republican strategy seems to be to get the public to resort to violence against them
what is the story about the public land? I missed that
Here’s an interactive map which shows the scale of the looting:

Here’s an article that goes into the specifics a bit more:

Interesting. thanks for sharing
The buyers should expect “nonviolent” resistance.
