Even as a politics lecturer in a Middle East department, I am lost.

Israel has a right to self defence, but Lebanon does not?

Israelis have the right to be safe, but Palestinians do not?

Iran can’t launch missiles into civilian areas, but Israel can?

None of this is coherent.

[Alessandro Fiore @Ale_Fiorotto]

why does Israel always “have a right to respond” but no one else seems to? The 4 sovereign countries who’ve been bombed, or the innocent Lebanese or Palestinians who’ve had their neighbourhoods flattened - do they not also have a right to respond ? #Israel #Lebanon #Gaza #BBC

i’m sure @LCFC players must’ve enjoyed watching that game… 😂 something tells me a few players are going to come down with the flu on Friday.. if @ManCity play like that on Saturday it’s going to be total carnage #cityleicester

[Alessandro Fiore @Ale_Fiorotto]

wow, unreal @ManCity tonight. What a complete performance - as good as that famous Messi/Xavi/Iniesta barca team. it’s going to take something special to beat them if they keep playing like that. #citybayern

Russia: Don't cross our red lines in Ukraine or we'll take action.
US politicians: They're bluffing. Cross those red lines.

The #Russian military convoy 30 km outside the #Ukrainian capital #Kyiv is much longer than earlier thought - 40 miles long. Here in South Africa there's a phrase - Hier kom kak!

Long thread about how I think the first 96 hours have gone, still very early/incomplete impressions. The initial Russian operation was premised on terrible assumptions about Ukraine’s ability & will to fight, and an unworkable concept of operations. Moscow badly miscalculated. 1/

@_nightbirde was a gift. To me to you to us. She showed strength despite weakness...she worshiped the present ability to love and be loved. I will live her lesson best I can. Rest in peace,
