"Dit simplement, un mauvais cessez-le-feu pourrait rendre l’Ukraine plus fragile qu’elle ne l’est aujourd’hui. C’est là que réside la tragédie du calcul de Kiev : continuer la guerre peut relever d’une forme de rationalité stratégique, non parce que cette voie promettrait une victoire totale, mais parce que l’alternative immédiate risquerait d’être plus défavorable encore. Plus fondamentalement, la guerre est peut-être devenue le cadre politique permettant de maintenir les flux financiers extérieurs sans lesquels l’État ukrainien ne tiendrait plus."

On 5 June 1967, Israel launched a war of aggression against Egypt, Syria and Jordan, and came to occupy the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and Gaza, territory intended to form part of a future Palestinian State.
Within weeks, a young legal adviser at Israel's Foreign Ministry, Theodor Meron, set out the legal consequences with remarkable clarity. In a memorandum I recovered during archival research in 2019, he affirmed the applicability of the 1907 Hague Regulations and the Fourth Geneva Convention to the newly occupied territories, and recalled the prohibition on annexation.
Two months later, writing to Prime Minister Levi Eshkol, Meron advised that the establishment of civilian settlements in the occupied territories would be, in his words, in "contravention of explicit provisions" of international humanitarian law.
History has a habit of leaving breadcrumbs. Meron would later become President of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, and decades later advised the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court on atrocity crimes committed by Netanyahu and others in Gaza. The legal position he articulated in 1967 has not changed. What has changed is that nearly six decades later, the warnings were ignored, the occupation entrenched and metastasized into unlawful presence, and the consequences are before us all.

The authors described 5 other cases with recurrence of T-cell lymphoma or newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) shortly after BNT162b2 mRNA vaccination.

Russia’s crude exports in the first five months of this year are setting new post-Ukraine-invasion highs, helping Moscow reap maximum rewards from the war in Iran, writes @JLeeEnergy https://t.co/Jr6yAGGS1h
@maximkireev@RoPoppZurich Genau, mir scheint auch, die mediale Sau von aktuellen ukrainischen Erfolgen dient dazu, den absehbaren Fall von Konstantyniwka vorbeugend zu übertünchen, denn über das, was nicht ins Bild passt, lässt sich kaum mehr berichten.
@errkatze@RoPoppZurich@maximkireev Das „Lustige“ ist, das offenbar Leute, die - ziemlich unreflektiert - stramm Kriegspropaganda verbreiten und mitwirken, Tausende vom Schreibtisch aus per Federstrich in den Tod zu schicken, äußerst sensibel und zartbesaitet auf Kritik an ihrer Realitätsabkoppelung reagieren.
@maximkireev@RoPoppZurich Nicht ahnungslos, sondern propagandistisch unterwegs (was nicht heißt, dass sie nicht auf ihre eigene Propaganda auch reingefallen sein können).
