If the White House leaves a wounded beast alive in Tehran, whatever is left of the regime will come back and rebuild its nuclear program, its terrorist infrastructure, and the regime. It will only be a matter of time.

Yousef al-Otaiba, UAE Ambassador to the US: “A simple cease-fire isn’t enough. We need a conclusive outcome that addresses Iran’s full range of threats: nuclear capabilities, missiles, drones, terror proxies and blockades of international sea lanes…We want Iran as a normal neighbor. It can be reclusive and even unwelcoming, but it can’t attack its neighbors, blockade international waters, or export extremism.” wsj.com/opinion/the-u-…

Tucker Carlson is now justifying ISIS and Al-Qaeda by claiming that “colonialism” made them “so angry” that they became violent. Notice also how he adds quotation marks when referring to these terrorist groups as “Muslim extremists.”

For those mourning the ghoul. The fall of the regime in Iran was predetermined on the day when a father was publicly hanged in front of his daughter for a post on social media. In his final moments, the father kept smiling while looking into his daughter’s eyes, so that her courage would not break. Who does not remember that scene — and hundreds of similar scenes that shook the hearts of people all over the world? In a place where women have their hair cut off for not wearing a burqa, where they are paraded naked and beaten so brutally that they die in hospital in agony… A culture and a system of values that treat women and children with such contempt and exploit them are doomed to destruction.

Rabbi Linda Goldstein (🇵🇸🍉I/P Commentary)
Spain has a rich history of fighting against and resisting colonialism. That’s why Spanish is only spoken in Spain. On the flip side, Hebrew is spoken throughout Mexico, South America, the Caribbean, and other lands of Israel’s conquest.

@BernieSanders Bernie - I hope the people of Iran one day get to enjoy the privilege you so casually abuse every day: to speak your mind, condemn your government, and go to sleep knowing you’ll be free to do it again tomorrow.

Did you know? The Struma Disaster, 1941 On December 12, 1941, 769 Jewish passengers boarded the MV Struma, a ship that was to set sail from Axis-allied Romania to seek refuge in Israel. The passengers each paid an exuberant amount and were promised a luxurious ship that would transport them to Israel. However, when they reached the boat, they discovered that the Struma was in fact an old dilapidated vessel, containing one bathroom, no kitchen, and hardly any space. After a three day journey filled with engine failures, the Struma arrived at Turkey, where they were told they would be going to pick up their immigration certificates – but there were no immigration certificates waiting for them. The Turks refused to let the ship board, and towed the broken ship to a quarantine section while they figured out what to do with them. The British refused to let the ship sail to Israel, and Romania refused to allow them return. While Turkey was deliberating what to do, the boat remained anchored and isolated for ten weeks, its passengers suffering from starvation inhumane conditions. Reaching no agreement with England and Romania, the Turkish government decided to tow the Struma out of Turkish waters and into the Black Sea. On 23 February 1942 Turkish police boarded Struma. Her engine still did not work so they towed her back out into the Black Sea and cast her adrift about 10 miles off Istanbul, where they left the inoperative ship and its passengers to rot with no fresh water, food, or fuel. After just a few hours of drifting, a Russian ship torpedoed the Struma. Struma sank quickly and many people were trapped below decks and drowned. Many others aboard survived the sinking and clung to pieces of wreckage, but for hours no rescue came and all but one of them died from drowning or hypothermia. Struma's First Officer clung to a piece of wreckage that was floating in the sea along with a 19-year-old refugee, David Stoliar. The officer died overnight but Turks in a rowing boat rescued Stoliar the next day: the only survivor of 791 people, including crew members. Photo: monument in Ashdod commemorates the Struma disaster

The images emerging now from Iran of young people, older people, boys and girls, who were murdered in the last few weeks by the Iranian Islamic dictator, the Islamic Corps of Revolutionary Guards, Basij militia and imported killers from Iraq, are heartbreaking but also enraging. Some depict beautiful people at play, at the gym, dancing, on motorbikes; some makeshift morgues full of bodies; some streetscenes where killers shoot down unarmed protesters; and many show families opening bodybags to find their dead children shot in the head; others discover bodies of protesters wounded then executed in hospital beds and particularly women with uteruses removed or other horrors to conceal brutal rapes... Many are not young but it looks like the slaughter of the best and brightest of Iran Gen Z. Ive tried to repost these here. I dont want us to tire of theses or look away. So many are these images that it is hard to open the images or repost them. I have been contacted by people in Iran (who weirdly read my books in pirated Farsi editions) who manage to come online in various ways and they beg me to keep posting these images and faces and keep talking about them. Embarrassingly they thank me just for doing this! That is why i am writing this now. We must keep going and keep doing so. The numbers killed are astonishing: based on sources within the murderous dictatorship, it may be as many as 36000 were murdered just in the first days of the terror 8/9 January and more later - making it likely that 40,000 is a horribly plausible estimate. This makes this event the most greatest massacre in modern Iranian history by far, the greatest single event slaughter in modern MIddle Eastern history since 1900 - along with the Assad's liquidation of an entire town, site of Islamist insurgents, Hama, in 1982 when around 30,000 were killed. Both of them not taking place in wars but in cold blood - and this Iranian atrocity being far more terrible since none of the protesters were armed. We live in a time of egregious comparisons to the Holocaust when the Holocaust is repellently abused and minimized by cynical cretins - radiohosts, podders, politicians- to criticize anything from vaccination to ICE raids. But here is a comparison that stands in its scale and horror: in size and horror this does resemble the two days of Babi Yar near Kiev in Sept 1941 where 33,000 Jews were killed. It is also worth pointing out that an entire progressive movement arose against the autocracy of the Shah. And his was an autocracy. But in his forty year one reign, only around 3000 people were killed, mainly in the last year before his downfall. This week alone would have murdered in the streets, torturechambers, hospitals of Iran. It is very striking that the UN has barely commented on this; its sec-general has been shamed publically by dissident @AlinejadMasih; many countries have refused to vote against Iran; many of those formerly known as 'progressives' are silent or supporting the regime - incredibly; some famous so-called 'humanitarian' NGOs - many of them organizations i revered since my childhood; hello Amnesty where is your other ball now - are silent. In doing so, they have discredited any claim to humanitarian credentials and exposed themselves. Many Iranians dissidents have asked where are all the 'humanitarian' protesters who filled our streets, where are the righteous actors and other boobies now? It says alot that a comedian @omid9 is still doing more than BBC or Sky to cover this story. There are a plethora of great Iranian writers historians activists on X covering this. The killing is still going on. The tyranny is fatally damaged, it may fall on its own ultimately, it is now even more tainted, more likely metamorphose into an ICRG dictatorship. But history shows declining damaged regiimes can survive for years. Britain - as usual desperately doing a lamely virtuous catchup following more determinated players in foreign policy, sometimes sensible things, othertimes foolish - is i think banning ICRG but when the lumbering EU is ahead of you, we should worry; it should also seize the properties owned by Khamenei family and dynasties; and do more. For now all depends on the US President; depending on the details, a US strike might make its downfall more likely or it might not. What can we do? Not enough but keep posting the pictures for a start....

Colapso. No se me ocurre una explicación para algo tan simultáneo en todo el mundo (aunque con distinta intensidad), a pesar de contextos económicos muy diferentes, que un cambio cultural global.

Argentina registered a massive drop of 10.4% of the number of births in 2024, bringing down the TFR to a new all-time-low of 1.19, barely more than half as high as it was in 2015 (2.3). Argentina experienced one of the steepest post-2015 fertility drops globally.

How does @a16z have the geographical reach that it does? Gabriel Vasquez (@GEVS94), a partner at @a16z, has just invested in a $2m pre-seed in Stockholm (Dentio). It's founded by high school friends building AI in dentistry. The same fund that just raised $15bn is investing $2m into a tiny startup in Stockholm. The closest @a16z office to Stockholm is literally 4,000 miles away. They invested alongside local @OliverMolander and his @inceptionfundvc. But there are literally HUNDREDS of other closer VCs with stronger ties to the region. Would love to know the origination story behind this
