"Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." — Karl Popper, The Open Society and Its Enemies, Volume 1, 1945.

Not a single actor, actress, or singer has said a word.

BREAKIMG: 🇩🇪 Former Chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel: “Trump does not see politics as a service to the common good, but as a game of absolute power. I was surprised by his fascination with authoritarian leaders. He seemed to look at figures like Vladimir Putin or Kim Jong-un with a mix of envy and admiration—men who did not have to answer to parliaments, who did not face the scrutiny of a free press, or the constraints of an independent judicial system.”

Greenland, i think you can sleep tight 👍

Ik wil het niet geloven. Zeg @KatiPiri dat het niet waar is. Defensieve wapens geven aan terroristen? Defensieve wapens geven aan ayatollahs? Zie hier waarom VVD onder geen beding met GL/PvdA in een kabinet wil zitten. Ook Rutte wilde nooit met GL in een kabinet zitten.

Reminder: Er is na 2,5 jaar aan intimiderende praktijken met gezichtsbedekking op universiteitsterreinen NUL KEER gehandhaafd. Nul boetes. Nul sancties. Burgemeesters en universiteitsbesturen hebben HELEMAAL NIETS gedaan om te zorgen dat de wet werd nageleefd.

@EdNijpels Wat bent u een beroerde VVD’er

Wat een beroerd begin van de coalitie, de VVD die nog voor het debat over het coalitie akkoord met billboards haar sucessen uitdraagt. Waar is dat goed voor, schandelijk!

t.co/kgNnkLNLow It took 13 years for Douglas Murray’s prophecy to come true. Thirteen years. And now it’s happening exactly as he said, word for word. He stood at the Oxford Union and warned that the West would once again abandon the Jews—and this time, Israel would be forced to stand alone. He said it when it was unpopular. He said it when it was “offensive.” And now it’s reality. This isn’t just a clip. It’s a time bomb going off. Make it viral. The world needs to see what cowardice looks like in hindsight.

Over twenty-five years in the U.S. Navy, thirty-nine combat missions, and four missions to space, I risked my life for this country and to defend our Constitution – including the First Amendment rights of every American to speak out. I never expected that the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense would attack me for doing exactly that. My rank and retirement are things that I earned through my service and sacrifice for this country. I got shot at. I missed holidays and birthdays. I commanded a space shuttle mission while my wife Gabby recovered from a gunshot wound to the head– all while proudly wearing the American flag on my shoulder. Generations of servicemembers have made these same patriotic sacrifices for this country, earning the respect, appreciation, and rank they deserve. Pete Hegseth wants to send the message to every single retired servicemember that if they say something he or Donald Trump doesn’t like, they will come after them the same way. It’s outrageous and it is wrong. There is nothing more un-American than that. If Pete Hegseth, the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in our country’s history, thinks he can intimidate me with a censure or threats to demote me or prosecute me, he still doesn’t get it. I will fight this with everything I’ve got — not for myself, but to send a message back that Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump don’t get to decide what Americans in this country get to say about their government.

"Fear of escalation must not become an excuse for inaction.. Neutrality in the face of aggression always helps the aggressor" - Kaja Kallas She is right 😉

The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie amplified the arts, celebrated the arts, stood up for the arts and artists. It is beyond comprehension that this sitting president has sought to rename this great memorial dedicated to President Kennedy. It is beyond wild that he would think adding his name in front of President Kennedy’s name is acceptable. It is not. Next thing perhaps he will want to rename JFK Airport, rename the Lincoln Memorial, the Trump Lincoln Memorial. The Trump Jefferson Memorial. The Trump Smithsonian. The list goes on. Can we not see what is happening here? C’mon, my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny. This is way beneath the stature of the job. It’s downright weird. It’s obsessive in a weird way. Just when you think somone can’t stoop any lower, down they go…

@AylinBilic Dit is Bethlehem, Westelijke Jordaanoever

Dan neem je toch lekker ontslag. Met je boos zijn. Of ga je richten op Sudan. Dat de publieke opinie mede door onze media vrijwel meteen vanaf 8 oktober 2023 gekanteld is, is één maar ga op je werk gewoon je werk doen. Zo dat is eruit. Met je boos.

Oorverdovende stilte in de Stopera over afzeggen van Shai Abramson. Dat wekt verwondering. In #Amsterdam zetelt een burgemeester die naar Boedapest afreist om lhbti’ers te steunen. Maar Joden in háár eigen stad ontberen zulke steun jammerlijk. #Halsema #Concertgebouw #Joden

Vandaag is onze lijst voor de GR-verkiezingen bekend gemaakt!

BREAKING: Pro-Palestinian activists go to Sudan and tell children that their suffering is nothing compared to Gaza. Such a demonic movement. In reality, more people have died in Sudan and a famine is actually taking place.

The same look of fear. The same inhumanity.

Islamist militants are killing women and children and terrorizing civilians. It is so heartbreaking to see loud voices on social media stay silent. Those who have been lecturing us on “genocide” for the past two years are suddenly out of words.

Two Sudanese orphans. Their parents were just murdered by the RSF. Where is the UN? Where is the ICJ? Where is Greta? Where is UNICEF? Where is Amnesty International? Where is Gutteres? Where is Karim Khan? Where is Francesca Albanese? Where is MSF? Where is the media? Where is the EU? Where is Starmer? Where is Macron? Where is Sanchez? Where is Bernie Sanders? Where is AOC? Where is...
