Is the Israel-Palestine Conflict the graveyard of international relations or its rebirth newvision.co.ug/category/blogs…

A civilization that proves incapable of solving the problems it creates is a decadent civilization; A civilization that chooses to close its eyes to its most crucial problems is a sick civilization; A civilization that plays fast and loose with its principles is a dying civilization; … increasingly, it takes refuge in a hypocrisy which is all the more odious because it is less and less likely to deceive. Aimé Césaire Discourse on Colonialism

Only a year ago, I would have never imagined to witness a European leader, let alone of one of the largest countries in the heart of Europe, to be so unequivocally and unapologetically on the right side of history - at least not in my lifetime. This isn’t just about Israel or Trump - Sánchez is standing up to the entire powerful political propaganda and control machinery that has been in place for decades - deciding over the political rise and fate of politicians in virtually all Western nations. This is truly remarkable. The world is waking up at a criminally slow pace -but it is finally waking up.

Big Money dominates every aspect of Washington. Unless we get rid of super PACs, it’s going to get even worse.

On the 78th anniversary of the Nakba, we remember that dispossession and exile are not mere footnotes of the past but living, ongoing realities. To speak of justice today is to name the catastrophe of 1948 and to recognise that no future can be built on forgetting. Freedom and equal rights for all, from the river to the sea, is the only vision worthy of the name. As we mark another Nakba anniversary, the genocide that started then is intensifying. What we witness in Gaza and across the occupied territories is not a war, not clash of equals, nor a tragic but inevitable conflict — it is the violent, relentless logic of white settler terra nullius colonialism, dressed in modern military hardware and sustained by western complicity. A people is being erased, deemed superfluous, their humanity denied so that their erasure may be justified. To commemorate the Nakba is to stand with the living against the coloniser’s lie that some lives are mere obstacles. It is to insist that remembrance must become resistance, and resistance is not only a prerequisite for liberty but also of existence.

Israel has carried out air strikes targeting a residential building in Gaza City. One person has been confirmed killed and several injured. The Israeli army claims the strikes in Gaza targeted Izz al-Din al-Haddad, currently considered Hamas’s most senior figure in Gaza.

Iran has nothing to negotiate with genocidal child killers.

@AgapeFcolam It takes dedication and team work to get where we are... It's not yet done as we prepare for the playoffs!!!

The Power doesn't, early... Ever forward, last season was us testing the waters, the title is ours this time round

Told BRICS FMs summit: Iran's resistance against U.S. bullying is not an unfamiliar battle. So many of us encounter slight variations of same repugnant coercion. High time for us to jointly step up and work towards making clear that those practices belong in dustbin of history.

Sanctions cannot substitute dialogue, nor can pressure replace diplomacy

President Sánchez on Lamine Yamal waving a Palestinian flag at La Liga Barça’s celebrations: “Those who see waving a country’s flag as incitement to hatred are lost in their judgement or blinded by their own ignominy. Lamine was simply showing solidarity felt by millions”.

I’ve missed this: a mind and voice used to connect the dots, link struggles, cut through quiet conformism and cloying neutrality that becomes unbearable in times of atrocities. Thank you for this piece, Ahmed. Justice is the sum of collective effort. zeteo.com/p/misan-harrim…

It's not a Disney movie unfortunately

"What the UAE gave Hemedti wasn't the means, but the cover." Sky News Africa correspondent @YousraElbagir speaks to Mohamed Hashem about the UAE's role in Sudan's war, and why European policymakers are choosing to look away. Watch it on Real Talk ➡: youtu.be/OfUzAhXaH9U

We no longer attach great importance to the arts & history but I also came here to say that the mighty Robespierre, when he started the reign of terror, accused Jacques Roux of being, rather oddly and interestingly, a ‘foreign agent’. Roux was chased from the Jacobin Club

Quienes consideran que ondear la bandera de un Estado es “incitar al odio”, o han perdido el juicio o han sido cegados por su propia ignominia. Lamine solo ha expresado la solidaridad por Palestina que sentimos millones de españoles. Otro motivo más para estar orgullosos de él.
