Do you remember this man? He is #spycops Simon Wellings and he supposedly infiltrated anarchists and anti-G8 protesters between late-2004 and 2007 (incl. German G8). Looking for any memories of him. He'll be giving evidence to the UCPI the week after next.

For those I care about who are following this, like @pmmcc , it got worse. Flight was outright cancelled! Had to use the app to try to find a replacement flight, and now we get to our destination almost 20 hours later, effectively missing a day of our big ski trip.

@AirCanada please see DMs from me ASAP. You just delayed our flight tonight by enough time that we will miss our connecting flight in Frankfurt. I know the delay is under 3 hours, but something else needs to be arranged ASAP.

60 nautical miles? Wow. If ordinary citizens of the world, with small and underresourced boats can do that, why states don't break the blockade with their navies? Is this the world we live in? No, we do not accept it. Go, go Flotilla! Sail safe. God's wind.

Breaking | Israeli occupation forces are terrorizing activists on board the Global Sumud Flotilla with water cannons. At least two vessels, including Meteque and a yacht named All In, have defied Israeli orders to stop, continuing toward Gaza. They are reportedly within 60 nautical miles of the coast. Activist Ewa Jasiewicz confirmed her boat remains underway despite threats.

しばらくウィーンにいます。 写真はザッハトルテと空港で👶にねだられて買ったヒトカゲです。 私の子どもの頃って、ヒトカゲを選ぶと序盤大変なイメージだったんですが(初代ポケモン)今のはどうなんでしょうね。私も人生の序盤が一番苦労したので、30年近くお互いよく生きたよねと伝えました。

I've written an op-ed and bit of a deep dive (with some insider knowledge) into Canada's silence in the face of American sanctions against the ICC. Any ideas for outlets that would be interested to run it? 🧐 Thanks for any help and suggestions!

We didn’t join other states expressing support for vital work of @IntlCrimCourt & now we are silent as Trump sanctions a Canadian judge on the court. @MarkJCarney @AnitaAnandMP is this piteous DT appeasement or has Canada given up on international justice when we need it most?
Alex Neve@AlexNeve24

Canada refused to join other states in expressing support for ⁦@IntlCrimCourt⁩ 2 times in recent weeks. Writing in ⁦@globeandmail⁩, ⁦@amandaghahreman⁩ & I call on ⁦@MarkJCarney⁩ ⁦@AnitaAnandMP⁩ to explain this troubling shift. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

The IDF targeted a press tent at the Al-Shifa hospital killing Al Jazeera’s most senior correspondent in Gaza, Anas Al-Sharif, and colleague Mohamed Qreiqeh. Sharif and Qreiqeh are the 261st and 262nd Palestinian journalists killed by Israel since Oct 2023.

I'm gravely alarmed by the decision of the Israeli Government to "take control of Gaza City". This marks a dangerous escalation & risks deepening the already catastrophic consequences for millions of Palestinians. It could further endanger more lives, including of the remaining hostages. I reiterate my urgent appeal for a permanent ceasefire, unimpeded humanitarian access across Gaza & the immediate & unconditional release of all hostages. un.org/sg/en/content/…

We call on @MarkJCarney to join @EmmanuelMacron in recognizing the State of Palestine. Unlike the text below, however, it must be done immediately and without conditions. The ICJ has clearly stated that the right of Palestinians to self-determination is inalienable and cannot be conditioned on the demands of the illegal occupier. However, as a mostly symbolic gesture, recognition must be accompanied by concrete sanctions to force Israel to end its illegal and illegitimate presence in the occupied Palestinian territory.
Emmanuel Macron@EmmanuelMacron

Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain. L’urgence est aujourd’hui que cesse la guerre à Gaza et que la population civile soit secourue. La paix est possible. Il faut immédiatement un cessez-le-feu, la libération de tous les otages et une aide humanitaire massive à la population de Gaza. Il faut aussi garantir la démilitarisation du Hamas, sécuriser et reconstruire Gaza. Il faut enfin bâtir l’État de Palestine, assurer sa viabilité et permettre qu’en acceptant sa démilitarisation et en reconnaissant pleinement Israël, il participe à la sécurité de tous au Proche-Orient. Il n’y a pas d’alternative. Les Français veulent la paix au Proche-Orient. Il nous appartient, à nous Français, avec les Israéliens, les Palestiniens, nos partenaires européens et internationaux, de démontrer que c’est possible. À la lumière des engagements que le président de l’Autorité palestinienne a pris auprès de moi, je lui ai donc écrit ma détermination à avancer. Confiance, clarté et engagement. Nous gagnerons la paix.

I am appalled by the deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The last lifelines for survival are being cut off. Without an urgent influx of fuel, incubators will shut down, ambulances will be unable to reach the injured and sick, and water cannot be purified. The @UN has a clear and proven plan, rooted in the humanitarian principles, to get vital assistance to civilians – safely and at scale, wherever they are. I renew my call for an immediate permanent ceasefire and for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.
