Mara Gergolet

@TheBorisBecker è venuto a trovarci in via Solferino, curioso di tutto (ha voluto vedere la Sala Albertini), regalandoci dieci titoli diversi. Personaggio enorme. Bisognava solo stare ad ascoltarlo con @mgergolet. Intervista @Corriere corriere.it/cronache/25_no…

Solidarity and support DO matter ❤️

@rustyrockets @JDVance This is an extraordinary lie. Who’s going to arrest a US soldier? On a US base? When the US didn’t even hand over the soldier convicted of shooting an Italy’s top intelligence officer in Iraq, Calipari? Or the pilot who cut the cable at Cermis out of bravado, killing 20 people?

This is an EXTRAORDINARY piece of analysis from @JDVance

@DouglasCarswell @JDVance NO

Any American “apologising” for what @JDVance said at Munich needs to meet some actual Europeans, not the Euro elite on CNN or the BBC. Vance message is welcomed by millions

@zucca64 @Corriere Ma cosa vuole. E come si permette

@Corriere Poi vi chiedete perché ai giornalisti non crede più nessuno. Perché siete falsi @mgergolet

Islamofobo, paranoico e simpatizzante di destra: il profilo «caotico» del saudita killer solitario di Magdeburgo trib.al/bh6hiyk

The Tragic End of Mazen al-Hamada: A Symbol of Syrian Torture and Resistance The international community mourns the death of Mazen al-Hamada, the Syrian activist who for years embodied the resistance against the brutalities of Bashar al-Assad's regime. Al-Hamada was found dead in Saydnaya prison, infamous for systematic torture, just days after the fall of the Baathist regime and the release of numerous detainees. Al-Hamada's body was discovered in the morgue of #Harasta Hospital near #Saydnaya, where the regime often disposed of detainees' corpses in mass graves. Sources reported that his body bore visible signs of torture and beatings, serving as a final testament to the atrocities he endured. Tributes and messages of condolence have flooded social media. Among them, activist Mouaz Moustafa @SoccerMouaz wrote: "I’m sorry I couldn’t save you. I hope you know in heaven that, in the end, we have freed #Syria. My friend, brother, colleague, and martyr for freedom." Originally from Deir az-Zour, al-Hamada was a prominent figure in the 2011 anti-government protests that emerged during the Arab Spring. Arrested multiple times by the regime, he endured physical and psychological violence, including sexual abuse and torture, and was coerced into confessing to crimes he never committed. In 2014, after his release, he sought refuge in the Netherlands, where he continued to expose the Assad regime's violence. He participated in conferences, testified about the conditions faced by detainees, and supported legal proceedings against the regime. In one of his testimonies, al-Hamada shared harrowing accounts of the torture he suffered: "As soon as we entered, they started beating us with sticks, made us strip naked, and forced us to remain that way. They tied our hands and threw us into overcrowded cells." Other testimonies included details of mock hangings, cigarette burns, and boiling oil being poured over his body. In 2020, al-Hamada returned to Syria from Germany, lured by the regime’s promise of amnesty. However, he was immediately arrested, disappeared into government custody, and was not heard from again until the discovery of his body. Al-Hamada’s death comes at a pivotal moment for Syria, during the rebel capture of #Damascus, which led to the fall of Assad’s regime. Saydnaya prison, a notorious symbol of the regime’s atrocities, was taken over by the rebels, and hundreds of prisoners were freed. For al-Hamada, however, freedom came too late. Journalist @wardnajjar2 wrote: "They killed Mazen many times: in his heart, his mind, and his spirit. Now his physical death strikes us, but his memory will live on in us and will be passed on to future generations." Mazen al-Hamada will remain a symbol of the fight against oppression, resilience, and courage. His tragic end serves as a stark reminder of the suffering endured by millions of Syrians and the ongoing need for justice for the victims of one of history’s most brutal regimes.

@stefanomassini Complimenti. Letto Manhattan Project la scorsa settimana, bellissimo. Eh sì, l’Ft ci capisce e ci sa fare…

Oggi mi accade qualcosa di abbastanza incredibile: uno dei massimi giornali al mondo, il Financial Times , ha deciso di dedicarmi un’ampia intervista-ritratto che esce oggi nei 5 continenti sul loro famoso supplemento del week-end. Di cuore GRAZIE.

@EdLopez86 Hallo, von Corriere della Sera hier. Können wir sprechen? Danke, Mara (Uber DM wenn du mich folgst. Danke!)

Montag beginnt in #Budapest das Verfahren gg. zwei Deutsche & eine Italienerin, die Feb. '23 am Rande des SS-Gedenkens "Tag der Ehre" mutmaßliche Teilnehmer angegriffen haben sollen. Eine weitere Person sitzt deswegen in DD in U-Haft. Ein Überblick. #LinaE mdr.de/nachrichten/de…

Luce su una strage: il 3 agosto 1944 venne massacrata in una villa vicino Firenze la famiglia di Robert Einstein, cugino del Nobel. Ora l’accesso ai fascicoli del tribunale potrebbe aprire nuovi scenari. Su «la Lettura» nell'App, l’articolo di @mgergolet bit.ly/3RpDsbR

@thomasharding @ReporterOG @DJVde Hello I am a journalist at Corriere della Sera. Very interested in the case. Could you dm me? Would like to talk to you. Tks! Mara

Last week we won the right to gain access to prosecutor files in Rheinland-Pfalz - apparently the first time journalists have been given access to such files in Germany. See FAZ article below. @ReporterOG @DJVde

@Thaidigsmann Sehr interessant. Ich werde Sie was fragen MD, wenn sie mich folgen können. Danke

"Was wird aus den Geiseln in Gaza?" Habe mich mit dem Ex-BND-Agenten Gerhard Conrad unterhalten über die Lage in Nahost und die Geiseln. Er verhandelte Anfang der 2000er Jahre mehrere Geiselaustausche zwischen Hisbollah und Hamas einerseits und #Israel andererseits. juedische-allgemeine.de/politik/was-wi…

It is senseless to shelter Putin from the sense that he is losing. He will figure that out for himself, and he will act to protect himself. 1/17
