Jack Smith may have failed in the US, but the politicized indictment he left behind at the KSC in The Hague is not yet dead.
He was seconded by the State Department and funded by US taxpayers.
It's time his activities in The Hague are fully investigated.

Horrific gang-rape and torture ordeal of Iranian nurses: Medics 'subjected to brutal sex attacks in revenge for caring for wounded rioters with one victim begging surgeons to let her die' https://t.co/IsTL7F5Yzs

👏👏👏 A young actress born in a village near Ferizaj, Kosovo, Luàna Bajrami-Rahmani, has just won an Oscar as part of the team behind the short film Two People Exchanging Saliva. #Kosovo was mentioned during the acceptance speech at the Oscars—the most watched film event in the world. Once again, the girls of Kosovo are making us proud. #OscarNight #oscars #oscars2026

For 47 years, the people of Iran have yearned for justice, freedom, peace, and prosperity—and have paid for it with their blood.

If your outrage at Iranian lives lost began only today, but you were silent as the regime slaughtered thousands of its own people in recent weeks, Iranian lives did not suddenly become worthy of your concern. Their lives have always mattered.

Many Iranians today are experiencing a profound and painful dissonance: waiting with bated breath for the fall of their tormentors, while grieving every innocent life lost—and knowing it was decades of the regime’s violence, repression, and recklessness that led the country to this precipice.

Imagine the profound dissonance of living under such injustice for so long that war begins to feel like the lesser evil.

It pains me deeply that the Islamic Republic has led Iran to this moment. The Iranian people are not this regime. They are its first victims—and they have never stopped fighting to rid themselves of it.

I stand with the people of Iran and their right to self-determination. May freedom, justice and peace swiftly prevail.

My earliest memory: pedaling my bike at age 5 to warn my parents about the Basijis. At 6, I heard my mother’s screams as she was arrested for nail polish.

I tell my kids the story of Zahhak—the tyrant who fed on youth until he was overthrown. The Zahhak of our time is falling.🕊️

Miku im @LeartAjvazaj shkruan shumë bukur dhe ka analiza të shkëlqyeshme. Është atraktiv për tu lexuar. Më shumë se kaq, edhe i dobishëm. E shkrimin e mëposhtëm është mirë me e lexu sidomos votuesi i VV(iktimës).

UPDATE: The chief editor of RTK's nightly news resigns (asks to be reassigned) after he admits that he was pressured by senior management to publish a "story" which falsely labelled two critical media in Kosovo as being on Vucic's payroll.

This is shocking! The Serbian “secret police” took opposition politician yesterday from his home presenting no warrant. Today he is in the hospital allegedly after being severely beaten. His crime: one day before he visited Reçak in 🇽🇰 & apologized for Jashari family massacre. Remember, this is happening in Europe, in Vučić’s 🇷🇸, not in Lukashenko’s 🇧🇾 or Putin’s 🇷🇺!

2023 #NobelPeacePrize laureate Narges Mohammadi’s brave struggle has come with tremendous personal costs. The Iranian regime has arrested her 13 times, convicted her five times, and sentenced her to a total of 31 years in prison and 154 lashes. Mohammadi is still in prison.

New evidence links Serbia's state to the terrorist group behind the Banjska, Kosovo attack. A Serbian army document during a grenade launcher handover to the terrorists, seized by Kosovo Police on Sept 24, supports this. Details: Launcher 30mm M93, Seal: Serbian Army.
