The Long Covid Sessions Podcast

Many people continue to live with the effects of long COVID. We have a responsibility to acknowledge this condition, to listen to those affected, and to champion the research needed to advance treatment and rehabilitation. @WHO is working closely with governments and partners to translate emerging evidence into practical, effective guidance to support those living with long COVID.

@ABlinken No you just facilitated a genocide.

(10/10) So no, I would not have done it. For the record.

(1/10) @realDonaldTrump cited me as supporting his attack on Iran and expressing regret we didn’t do it during the Biden Administration. Except I didn’t.

While covering the latest Israeli settler attack in the West Bank, Israeli soldiers assaulted my photojournalist @cyrilthps and detained my team. But our 2-hour detention revealed a lot about the motives of these Israeli soldiers: acting in service of the settler movement. W/ @AbeerSalmanCNN

Palestinian children killed with their hands behind their back and dumped in a mass grave. This is Israeli army “morality.”

“…her turbulent six-month tenure as editor in chief, it appears the proud anti-woke warrior has instead helped destroy that trust—something that is now laid bare in the network’s rapidly shrinking ratings. Indeed, new ratings data obtained by Status isn’t just bad for Weiss. It is catastrophic.” status.news/p/cbs-news-rat…

Absolute bombshell. Former Counterterrorism Director Joe Kent admits the US government intentionally armed Al Qaeda and created ISIS in Syria. They deliberately unleashed a global terror network just to overthrow Assad and protect Israel.

If there is precisely one thing you watch today, make it this. French Senator Claude Malhuret. A microphone. And the most magnificently savage dismantling of the Trump administration ever delivered in a language they almost certainly don’t speak. He covers Iran. He covers corruption. He covers the kind of staggering, industrial-scale incompetence that would get you fired from managing a car park. And he does it with the calm, unhurried certainty of a man who has read every page of the indictment and found it, if anything, worse than expected. France has never pretended to like these people. But this is contempt elevated to an art form. The kind of refined, aristocratic disdain that takes centuries of civilization to produce and approximately ninety seconds to deploy. Malhuret sounds like he is four seconds from the button. Not out of panic. Out of sheer, exhausted disgust. Honestly? Understandable. Watch it. Share it. The adults are speaking.

More guidance for foreign news desks. Memo 3. Things are slipping again. Correspondents please note the following: 1) Lebanon is a country, even though majority Muslim. It includes ‘south Lebanon’. Another country setting up a ‘security zone’ there is called ‘an invasion.’ 👇

Sounds like an important and timely book

Brilliant essay in this month’s Harper’s on living in dark times, the immaturity and complacency of Western elites, especially journalists, and “the mental self-mutilation of mankind through its press.”

Wired has THE BEST write up of the incredible scientists who did the work to prove the WHO’s claims about COVID wrong. Their original instructions about spread: social distancing, surgical masks- these were inadequate. But we didn’t know until 2021 wired.com/story/the-teen…

The New York Times calls Israel’s invasion of southern Lebanon a ‘widening buffer zone.’ This is how language is used to desensitise the public and legitimise illegal actions. @nytimes A ‘buffer zone’ inside the territory of another sovereign state is an invasion. Call it what it is.

Why does the British editor-in-chief of the Economist have a prescription for governance in the Levant like who the fuck are you

@saadmohseni Tucker is right: The Economist was a cheerleader for the genocide until this year

@kennardmatt @CounsellingSam Thats it thats the explanation

I saw this at the Financial Times. British establishment journalists have been indoctrinated—starting young at elite private schools—with the views needed to oversee the propaganda system Many have literally never had an independent thought. What they do is spout received wisdom So when someone probes one of their ideas it falls apart because they’ve learnt it by rote - there has been no conscious processing of information. They believe something, but don’t know why. They’ve just heard some authority say it The top echelons of British journalism industry are, consequently, some of the most unimpressive people on the planet. Anyone capable of independent thought - and critical analysis outside the confines of establishment shibboleths - is filtered out very early

Im here for the @TuckerCarlson and @mehdirhasan podcast
