Soldiers’ Pills on the Table: A Cry for Help at the Knesset

IDF Soldiers Dump Psych Meds 

In Front Of Israeli Politicians

Israeli soldiers are suffering from mental illnesses from the genocide in Gaza.
Ana Kasparian discusses on The Young Turks.

Ex-soldiers and veterans dramatically dumped bags of psychiatric medications onto a table during a Knesset committee meeting meant to discuss rising suicide and mental-health problems among current and former soldiers. The action was meant as a protest — a visual, angry plea that lawmakers act faster to address PTSD, addiction and suicide risk in the ranks. 

Several of the veterans shouted that “we are mentally ill” and warned that more comrades were taking their own lives, while pushing piles of pills and pill bottles across the meeting table to make the point. Video and short clips of the moment circulated widely on social platforms and news sites, showing the raw emotion and the chaotic scene in the parliamentary room. 

This protest comes against a backdrop of rising mental-health strain in the Israeli military: recent reporting says thousands of wounded soldiers have been treated for PTSD and other mental health conditions since the fighting began, and official figures and medical sources indicate a sharp increase in diagnoses and treatment demand. Veterans and mental-health advocates argue that treatment availability, follow-up care and suicide prevention measures have not kept pace. 

Government officials in the Knesset session acknowledged gaps and problems, while MPs and ministry representatives traded blame and promises. Some politicians called the stunt disruptive and disrespectful to parliamentary procedure, while veterans said disruption is exactly what’s needed to make leaders face a problem they say has been ignored. The event has become another flashpoint in a bigger public debate about the social and human costs of the war. 

Why this matters: when uniformed people use public hearings to stage dramatic protests, it signals both desperation and political pressure. For lawmakers, it’s an urgent demand to fund mental-health services, improve tracking and follow-up care for wounded and traumatized soldiers, and to address factors — from deployment tempo to battlefield trauma — that feed the crisis. For the public, the images force a difficult conversation: how to balance military needs, medical care, and policy oversight during an ongoing conflict.

Charlie Talks About Epstein

Image
Between 28:52 and 30:00 of the video, Charlie Kirk frames Jeffrey Epstein not just as an isolated predator but as a tool of influence and compromise. The lies about Charlie. Charlie in his own words. Questions about the investigation. They Are Lying About Charlie Kirk. | Candace Ep 235 - YouTube Between 28:52 and 30:00 of the video, Charlie Kirk frames Jeffrey Epstein not just as an isolated predator but as a tool of influence and compromise. He suggests Epstein’s network functioned as a “lever” for powerful elites—politicians, financiers, even intelligence services—to entrap and control people. He stresses that the scandal wasn’t only about private depravity but about systematic blackmail designed to ensure loyalty and silence. Kirk points to the strange protection Epstein enjoyed for years, implying he was too useful to certain powerful interests to be stopped until he became a liability. What ties these threads together is the idea of influence bought or weaponized: Charlie Kirk’s c...

Supreme Court Issues 9-0 Unanimous Decision Changing Second Amendment & 4th Amendment

  Barnes v. Felix case, why the Court struck down the “moment of threat” rule, and how this changes self-defense cases, concealed carry laws, and police encounters forever. Supreme Court Issues 9-0 Unanimous Decision Changing  Second Amendment & 4th Amendment Fight! There were two separate 9–0 rulings in 2025 : Fourth Amendment — Barnes v. Felix (May 15, 2025): The Court unanimously rejected the “moment-of-the-threat” test in police-force cases and said courts must assess the totality of circumstances (including officers’ conduct leading up to a shooting) when judging reasonableness. That refines Fourth-Amendment excessive-force doctrine ; it doesn’t rewrite the Amendment’s text.  Example: Officers chase a teen for a busted taillight into a dim alley. Without waiting for backup or announcing themselves, they rush in with guns drawn, corner him, and shout conflicting commands. The teen, panicking, reaches toward his waistband to pull out a phone; an officer fires...

Why Charlie Kirk Looked That Way in His Casket (Embalmer Reacts)

Image
People are asking why Charlie Kirk looked the way he did in his open casket — from the yellow hands, to the “waxy” appearance, to conspiracy theories that it wasn’t even him. As a licensed funeral director and embalmer, I’m breaking down what you’re really seeing. Why Charlie Kirk Looked That Way in His Casket (Embalmer Reacts) This is just a general look at how embalming can affect appearance. Every case is unique, and my goal is simply to share understanding, not to speak about any one person. Yellow discoloration of hands or skin can come from a few common causes: jaundice (liver failure or medications), postmortem chemical shifts, or the interaction of embalming fluids with blood pigments. Some are pointing to the yellowing of Charlie Kirk’s hands in the casket as proof of something sinister, but what isn’t being said is that discoloration like this often signals more than just “jaundice.” In cases of sudden or violent death, the body’s chemistry can shift unpredictably, creating p...
