THREAD: Extraordinary. What has so long been talked about appears to be finally happening. Israel is attacking the Iranian nuclear sites.

I spent over a decade studying and analysing Iran's nuclear program. I will be posting my thoughts here as news comes in.

Most immediately, what has happened?

Police force in Argentina attacked and arrested journalists trying to cover anti-austerity protests. Police are seen dragging journalists and camera crews into vehicles to prevent them from showing images of the violent repression against protestors.

On the first day of a hearing at the International Court of Justice, South African representatives said that Israel communicated the intent to commit genocide. Israel categorically denies the genocide accusation and will present its defense on Friday. https://t.co/4tnutsTtfm

I dag behandler den internationale domstol i Haag Sydafrikas m.fl. anklage mod Israel om folkemord.

Jeg vil opfordre alle til at læse Sydafrikas dokumentation. Den er detaljeret, velunderbygget og rystende. Jeg har lavet en tråd her med nogle udpluk.

Nu har #ISIS (IS, "Islamisk Stat") taget ansvaret for det store terrorangreb i #Kerman, #Iran, i går. Hvis det ellers er sandt - og intet her kan verificeres - så er der flere mulige grunde til denne mildest talt spektakulære udvikling:

Dedicated teacher alert!

Not even the 2023 #NobelPrize in Physics could tear Anne L'Huillier from her students.

Our new physics laureate was busy teaching a class. During a scheduled break, she heard the news.

After the phone call, L'Huillier went right back to her students.

I have a new favourite runestone: the Læborg stone that Ravnunge-Tue carved in honour of his queen Thyra. Because of his signature and his carving technique on this stone, Laila Kitzler Åhfeldt and I discovered that he also carved the larger Jelling stone.

Det var bedre, da Kurt var her.

[Sebastian Stanbury @SebStanbury]

Kom uden særlig grund til at tænke på dengang, da bombemanden Lors Doukajev blev anholdt i København, og Ekstra Bladet så ringede til Kurt Thyboe for at få en karakteristik af ham på baggrund af nogle boksevideoer.
En strålende artikel!

News: NPR becomes first major news org to stop using Twitter, saying that the Elon Musk-owned platform “is taking actions that undermine our credibility.”

“We are not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermining our credibility…”

China does not support Russia in the war with Ukraine, and the declaration of "boundless friendship" between the countries is a rhetorical device," the Chinese ambassador to the EU said. He added that China does not recognize the territories annexed by the Russian Federation.

@Sbtoft Sæt tid af - fedt ikke at gøre det til en stroppetur. Så hellere en overnatning undervejs. Og tag gerne en rute med nattog. Budapest har fx en god forbindelse fra Berlin. Og jeg ville klart bruge https://t.co/c5qMze143T - har brugt dem både til ture med 3børn og 56 højskoleelever
