"En l vida encontrarás a muchos imbéciles. Si te hieren, piensa que es su estupidez l que les empuja a hacerte daño. Así evitarás responder a su maldad, porque no hay nada peor en el mundo que el rencor y l venganza...Mantén siempre dignidad, integridad y fidelidad a ti misma"

Marjane Satrapi (1969-2026).

Casi 20 años después, “Persepolis” sigue siendo un enorme relato resistencia y Marjane un icono de resiliencia.

Hoy la recordamos de forma especial.

La elección es simple:

#FREEPALESTİNE

[Rawan Osman روان عثمان @RawaneOsmane]

“Free Palestine.”

I grew up on those words.

In Lebanon, most people around me wanted a free Palestine for a very practical reason — to send the Palestinian refugees back. The civil war that tore my country apart was ignited in no small part by the Palestinian armed factions who turned Lebanon into their launching pad. “Free Palestine” meant: free us from them.

In Damascus, where my father’s family lived, the sentiment was different but equally self-serving. Palestine must be returned to the Arabs, its righteous owners. No one asked follow-up questions. No one was expected to.

Palestine was central to Islam, most Arabs are Muslim, therefore supporting the Palestinian cause was reflexive. A non-brainer in the most literal sense — no brain engaged at all.

Nobody stopped to point out that Palestine is not an Arabic word. Nobody found it strange that Jerusalem, the supposedly third holiest city in Islam, is not mentioned once in the Quran. Not once. Nor is Palestine. The entire theological and political architecture of this cause rests on a foundation that their own scripture doesn’t bother to acknowledge.

What was actually happening was indoctrination. A systematic, generational rejection of Jewish sovereignty — and frankly, of any minority sovereignty. Jews, Christians, Druze, Kurds, Assyrians, Yazidis — the Arab world has been remarkably consistent in how it treats people who are different. We just don’t talk about that.

Instead, in the West, we talk about Palestine.

In the West, a civilization that has elevated human rights to its highest moral currency, the Palestinian cause has become the one exception to every rule. In the queue of human suffering, Palestinians cut the line every time. Homosexuals executed in Gaza and hanged from cranes in Iran? Palestine first. Women imprisoned in Saudi Arabia for campaigning for the right to drive — a right they were denied until 2018 — girls sold into marriage in Afghanistan, women erased from public life entirely under the Taliban? After Palestine. Political dissidents ground into dust in Syrian and Egyptian prisons, journalists disappeared in Libya, children starving in Yemen while their rulers wage proxy wars, entire populations hollowed out by hunger in Sudan? All of it waits. Christians ethnically cleansed from Iraq and Syria, the Arab world methodically emptied of every Jewish community it once held — a demographic erasure carried out across a century with surgical patience and near-total Western silence?

Palestine is still first.

So let’s end where we started. Free Palestine. Which Palestine, exactly? The Roman invention? The British administrative line? The British Mandate covered the entire territory of what is today Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and Jordan. In 1921, 78% of that mandate was handed to the Hashemite family — a dynasty imported from Hijaz in present-day Saudi Arabia — and became the Kingdom of Jordan, which it remains to this day. A foreign royal family, on the majority of historic Palestine, ruling it as a monarchy. Nobody protests that. No flags, no chants, no encampments. The remaining 22% was designated for the Jews, became Israel, and is the only part that any pro-Palestinian activist has ever had a problem with.

So when you say Free Palestine, you mean that 22%. You mean the Jews.

And free it from whom? From a people with a three-thousand-year-old documented presence in that land, to restore the glory of a name coined by Roman colonizers, a name lifted from the Torah, a name that has no roots in Arabic, no mention in the Quran, and no history as a sovereign state?

You are not chanting for liberation. You are chanting for colonialism — the Roman kind, repackaged for social media.

Free Palestine is not a cause. It is a colonial term, coined by invaders, recycled by the indoctrinated. The least you can do is have the intelligence to understand it and the decency to reflect on your position.

Me enviaron esta genialidad, no sé quién la hizo 👋👋👋

[Elisa Trotta @EliTrotta]

Hoy nos hemos enterado de la muerte de la señora Carmen Teresa Navas, de 82 años. Era la madre de Víctor Quero Navas, preso político de la dictadura chavista, secuestrado en enero de 2025 y quien murió bajo custodia de este régimen criminal. Pero su muerte nunca fue informada.

Durante meses, su madre lo buscó en todos los lugares posibles: centros de tortura, morgues, fiscalías. Nadie le dio jamás información. Se burlaron de ella y de su dolor. Hace exactamente diez días, el 7 de mayo, le informaron que Víctor había muerto hacía diez meses.

Ni siquiera permitieron que su madre pudiera despedirse de su hijo. Fue inhumano lo que les hicieron.

Tanto dolor no lo pudo soportar y hoy murió la señora Carmen Teresa. Otra muerte provocada por este régimen criminal, indolente y miserable.

Escribo esto desde el profundo dolor, porque lo que le han hecho a esta familia no tiene nombre. Y tampoco tiene perdón. Escribo esto con la convicción de que no vamos a dejar de luchar hasta que haya justicia, hasta que haya reparación, hasta que esta dictadura bárbara llegue a su fin y hasta que podamos estar seguros de que nunca más una familia venezolana tendrá que vivir tanto dolor por la decisión de unos cuantos salvajes.

Que su memoria sea bendita. Que pueda finalmente abrazar a su hijo.

#Bundibugyo #Ebola

[Cheng-Yi Lee, PhD. @cylee_tw]

Scientists from DRC and Uganda have released the first complete genomes of #Bundibugyo #Ebola virus from the May 2026 outbreak, indicating a possible new #spillover event from wild animals as case numbers continue to rise.

The genomes, posted on virological website on 17 May 2026, display a distinct genetic lineage that does NOT match any previously sequenced Bundibugyo strains, suggesting a recent introduction from an animal reservoir into humans rather than sustained human‑to‑human transmission. Phylogenetic analysis shows that the new sequences form a separate cluster, supporting the inference of a fresh zoonotic spillover.

The most plausible source of this spillover is wildlife inhabiting the Ituri forest, particularly fruit bats or other mammals known to harbor filoviruses, which could have been implicated in earlier outbreaks through hunting or contact with infected animal tissues. Ongoing ecological surveillance in the region will be essential to identify the exact reservoir and to mitigate the risk of future spillover events.
