Israeli billionaire Shlomo Kramer's New Year's resolution is to eliminate America's First Amendment.

"I know it's difficult to hear, but it's time to limit the First Amendment in order to protect it."

#Algeria on Friday received the skulls of 24 colonial resistance fighters which were lying in a French museum.
The fighters’ heads were decapitated during #France’s conquest of the North African country, and were transported to the European country as war trophie.

Canadian ICC Judge Kimberly Prost has told Al Jazeera's @stepvaessen that US sanctions have had a ‘crippling effect’ on her life. She’s one of nine officials sanctioned by the US for trying to prosecute American and Israeli nationals.

In 1663, King Louis XIV launched a bold plan to strengthen French Quebec by sending around 800 women, known as the “Daughters of the King”...

In mid-17th Century, New France, what is now Quebec, was sparsely populated and overwhelmingly male. Few European women had chosen to make the perilous Atlantic voyage to a harsh, unfamiliar colony. To stabilize and grow the settlement, King Louis XIV and his finance minister Jean-Baptiste Colbert launched an unprecedented program. Between 1663-1673, approximately 800 young women, mostly from modest or orphaned backgrounds, were sent to New France at the Crown’s expense.

These women were called Filles du Roi (Daughters of the King), a title that reflected royal sponsorship. Each received a small dowry, clothing, and basic supplies to help them start a new life. Upon arrival, they were quickly courted by settlers, soldiers, and traders who needed wives to establish families and secure land grants. The initiative was remarkably effective, within a decade, the colony’s population nearly doubled, and family life became central to its survival and culture.

While life in New France was challenging, marked by brutal winters, limited resources, and isolation, the Filles du Roi played a defining role in shaping the demographic and cultural identity of French Canada. Their descendants would go on to populate much of Quebec and other parts of Canada. Today, historians estimate that as many as two-thirds of French Canadians can trace their ancestry to these women.

Many Filles du Roi left detailed marriage contracts and baptismal records, which have become invaluable sources for genealogical research, allowing modern Canadians to trace family histories across more than 300 years.

I’d love to see a modern English lecture on Antara bin Shaddad—the Black warrior-poet, romantic, and PR genius of pre-Islamic Arabia. His poetry is still recited over 1,500 years later. @RoyCasagranda would be the perfect person to tell his story. Worth a Netflix miniseries imo.

@RoyCasagranda you say a Syrian dropped in Algeria would struggle with the language without clarifying the difficulty level. I say it's similar to a Jordie being dropped in Texas, is that a fair analogy?

On this day, May 8, 1945:

ON THIS DAY, THE FRENCH MASSACRED 45,000 MUSLIM CHILDREN, WOMEN, AND CIVILIAN MEN WHO WERE CELEBRATING THE END OF WORLD WAR II.

In the cities of Sétif, Guelma, and Kherrata, hundreds of thousands of Algerian Muslims flooded the streets to celebrate the Allies victory over Germany on May 7, 1945.

Why would Algerians celebrate a European victory?

This is because France had forcibly recruited 240,000 Algerians to fight its wars. They were promised independence and rights if the Allies won.

As the Algerians took to the streets to celebrate the end of World War II, the French army opened fire on children, women, and civilian men, killing 45,000 Muslims.

In retaliation, the Algerians killed 100-200 settlers.

At that moment, the Algerians realized that the only path to independence was through iron and fire.

Nine years later, on November 1, 1954, Algerians initiated a revolution against the French. This revolution was planned by 22 young men in their 20s.

The French were eventually forced to grant independence to Algeria after planting operatives who fought against the Algerians and later took over the country.

These "France's Officers" are the ones who have ruled Algeria since their coup against the Islamic Salvation Front party. which won the elections in 1991.
