So many broken hearts💔

Thousands honored Mazen who advocated for rights & justice

The regime’s answer? It disappeared, #tortured & killed him & countless more

Assad & his thugs counted on impunity, but they will face justice for their atrocity crimes

Rest in power dear Mazen

A rock band is performing and the singer sees a kid with a banner asking to play guitar with them. The singer asks him:

- Do you really know how to play guitar?
- Yeah!
- What's your favorite band?
- Guns N' Roses

What happens next is incredible.

15 June 1215: The Magna Carta is sealed by King John of England. It guarantees feudal rights and privileges, upheld the freedom of the church, and maintain the nation’s laws. It was annulled by #Pope Innocent III, leading to the First Barons' War. #OTD #ad https://t.co/QKy3me8qdg

Children live on familiar terms with disrupting emotions, fear & anxiety are an intrinsic part of their everyday lives, they continually cope with frustrations as best they can. It is through fantasy that children achieve catharsis.

Donald Trump faces 37 criminal charges, Boris Johnson is forced to resign from Parliament. As Shakespeare puts it in ‘Twelfth Night’, "And thus the whirligig of time brings in his revenges.”

.@UN faces huge dilemmas in Afghanistan. But UN agencies now find themselves simultaneously making unprincipled concessions to Taliban demands-/banning female workers—& facing further Taliban attacks on their programs. Lesson? Unprincipled acts to placate Taliban get you nothing.
