Namibian Presidency
Namibian Presidency@NamPresidency·
Namibia rejects Germany’s Support of the Genocidal Intent of the Racist Israeli State against Innocent Civilians in Gaza On Namibian soil, #Germany committed the first genocide of the 20th century in 1904-1908, in which tens of thousands of innocent Namibians died in the most inhumane and brutal conditions. The German Government is yet to fully atone for the genocide it committed on Namibian soil. Therefore, in light of Germany’s inability to draw lessons from its horrific history, President @hagegeingob expresses deep concern with the shocking decision communicated by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany yesterday, 12 January 2024, in which it rejected the morally upright indictment brought forward by South Africa before the #InternationalCourtofJustice that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in #Gaza. Worryingly, ignoring the violent deaths of over 23 000 Palestinians in Gaza and various United Nations reports disturbingly highlighting the internal displacement of 85% of civilians in Gaza amid acute shortages of food and essential services, the German Government has chosen to defend in the International Court of Justice the genocidal and gruesome acts of the Israeli Government against innocent civilians in Gaza and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Germany cannot morally express commitment to the United Nations Convention against genocide, including atonement for the genocide in Namibia, whilst supporting the equivalent of a holocaust and genocide in Gaza. Various international organizations, such as Human Rights Watch have chillingly concluded that Israel is committing war crimes in Gaza. President Geingob reiterates his call made on 31 December 2023, “No peace-loving human being can ignore the carnage waged against Palestinians in Gaza”. In that vein, President Geingob appeals to the German Government to reconsider its untimely decision to intervene as a third-party in defence and support of the genocidal acts of Israel before the International Court of Justice.

When Bernie Sanders says the richest Americans should pay more taxes a Fox reporter tries to tell him, "People say the Wall Street tax would hit the average American saving for retirement." So he says, "What people say that? People on Wall Street." And walks away.

Every time you hear a Tory MP saying we can't afford to give workers a proper pay rise remember this: Total wealth of Britain's billionaires ▪️2012: £212 Billion ▪️2022: £653 Billion That's up 3-fold. While pay is falling. It's time for a Wealth Tax on the super-rich!

Braverman led expertly by @timloughton to the realisation that if she continues talking she will be forced to admit that the only way for a refugee to get here is in a dinghy. So she stops talking...

Dozens of young children are being held at Manston detention camp in Kent. Mothers, fathers, children and babies from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and elsewhere. We went today and heard them chanting for their freedom. This is persecution. FREE THEM AND CLOSE IT DOWN.

The primitive United Kingdom has shown themselves incapable of self-governance. Their barbaric form of government has failed again, and we must launch a civilizing mission upon their shores.

We’ve gone from leaving the EU so we can give our NHS £350m per week instead… To making cuts to our NHS so we can give to our richest instead.

wages haven’t gone up in a decade, inflation is 10%, you can’t get an ambulance, GP, or dentist, energy bills have doubled, interest rates are heading to 6%, the rental market has gone mad, rail fares up, childcare is bonkers, and a pound is now worth one dollar. what did I miss

If Jeremy Corbyn had crashed the pound to its lowest level since 1985, the entire media would now be describing it as an ‘economic apocalypse’, the BBC would be reporting outside his house 24/7, and there’d probably have been some type of military coup instigated against him.
