There is a special kind of obscenity reserved for empire’s inner circle when they start competing for credit. This week in Washington, Netanyahu eulogised the late Senator Lindsey Graham as “Israel’s number one friend,” and Trump corrected him on the spot: no, actually, I’m israel’s number one friend, Lindsey was only ever number two. Two men who between them have overseen a war on Iran, a permission structure for continued strikes on Gaza, and arms sales to a NATO member Israel considers hostile, spent a public moment jockeying over a rivalry medal. That is what passes for statecraft at the top of the imperial core: theatre about loyalty, staged for cameras, while the actual violence those loyalties produce goes on without commentary.

Ali Khamenei is dead, and the two things happening on either side of that fact are not the two things Western coverage keeps trying to merge into one story. On one side: PMOI Resistance Units launched a nationwide campaign of defiance on 10 July, following what the same outlets describe as lavish, militarised state funeral ceremonies for a man whose regime spent decades disappearing and executing its own dissidents. On the other side: the United States is now nine consecutive nights into a bombing campaign that has nothing to do with Iranian civil society and everything to do with a strait oil needs to move through. These are not the same story wearing two faces. One is Iranians deciding, on their own terms, what comes after a dead theocrat. The other is a foreign military using the resulting instability as cover to keep dropping ordnance on Bushehr and Jask.

If you only track wars by whether missiles are currently in the air, you’ll miss most of what empire actually does for a living. This week the US carried out a new round of strikes on Iran, hitting more than 80 targets, air defence systems, command networks, coastal radar, and dozens of small boats near the Strait of Hormuz, and in the same breath reimposed the oil sanctions it had only recently, briefly, lifted. Iran has called it a “clear violation” of the memorandum the two countries signed last month and promised a “crushing response.” Buyers of Iranian oil now have until 17 July to unwind their transactions or face secondary sanctions themselves. Watch how quickly the headlines move on to the missiles and skip past that sentence. The missiles get the airtime. The sanctions get the casualties.

📣MUTUAL AID CHECKPOINT 26 JUNE 2026📣

Salaam from Jakarta

My people are on the streets again. Jakarta, Bandung, North Sumatra, South Sumatra; students have been tearing down police barricades since 12 June, naming what they are watching in real time: a government letting a 32% fuel price hike become the benchmark for a wider cost-of-living crisis while spending 268 trillion rupiah on programmes riddled with corruption, expanding military presence into civilian institutions, resurrecting the logic of dwifungsi ABRI that Reformasi was supposed to have buried in 1998. The protest name this time is “Heading to Bankrupt Indonesia.” Precise, not dramatic.

I know that’s right. It’s around this month that I usually fought misogynists and bigots on the internet, who unsurprisingly were both men… and some women, for some patriarchal reasons. And usually around this month, I had inner turmoil about whether or not I should channel my inner murabiyyah to remind fellow Muslims about the moral lessons behind the story of people of Luth (Prophet Lot), which always ended up forgotten and I got distracted by more pressing matters like doxxing and death threats for instance. But those were my Threads days, which also allegedly contributed to my getting permanently banned. Your girl was deranged, and positively unsafe for the harmful.

You can find other requests under my last week’s mutual aid checkpoint. Please go through the posts, support what is possible, and boost the original requests directly. Some need urgent financial help, some need wider circulation, and many need both.

This is a mutual aid checkpoint. #mutualaidspace
