Amnesty is too busy with the "genocide' in Gaza and "Islamophobia" in the West.

Trans-identified men in Edinburgh are fortunate enough to be welcome at the Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre, which was headed for a while by a trans-identified man who believed, and said publicly, that women who wanted a female-only service were bigots. That same rape centre admitted a male as a client because he called himself non-binary. The man was subsequently convicted for rape.

Beira’s Place was set up by me to provide women in Edinburgh and the Lothians with the female-only service they were being denied. Internal emails between ERRC staff were revealed during an unrelated court case, which showed them to be angry and dismayed that there was now an alternative service for women. One might have thought, reading those emails, that ERRC staff’s priority was the ideological conversion of rape survivors rather than the provision of a service that traumatised women required to feel safe after rape.

Beira’s Place has been exceptionally busy since it opened. We’ve taken on more staff and are currently looking for larger premises. We’ve helped women who’ve admitted that they didn’t want to use the alternative rape centre because of its very loud and public ‘trans women are women’ stance. We are also open to any and all trans-identified women who need support after rape.

In short, you’ll be relieved to hear that the trans-identified men for whom you feel such empathy and compassion aren’t losing out. It was biological women who were being shamed for their entirely legitimate desire for a male-free space. Apparently you’d have preferred that situation to continue, but I think you’ll find that most people, whether male or female, will see that as evidence of your cruelty, not mine.

🚨🗣️ Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter:

"The hydration breaks were just the start. On Sunday, the World Cup final will see the highlight of the tournament – the longest half-time-break in football-history. The World Cup final as a copy of the Super Bowl. Quo vadis, FIFA?"

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Amnesty is no longer the organisation that defended all who were persecuted for their freedom of speech. It has become a self-appointed, vainglorious policeman of wrongthink. It tweets out ideological slogans. It demonises those who disagree with those slogans. It intervened in FWS v Scottish Ministers, on the side of those determined to keep men in women’s prisons and rape crisis centres.

Some of us haven’t forgotten that Amnesty stopped supporting the since-murdered prisoner of conscience Alexei Navalny because they deemed he’d said unacceptable things in the past. They reversed that decision due to public backlash, exactly as they withdrew the recent defamatory report, before I or anyone else had responded to it, because they panicked on seeing the reaction. A cynic might think they changed their minds on both occasions, not on principle, but because they were afraid of losing money.

You cannot be simultaneously an impartial defender of freedom and speech and a wealthy international witch hunter that publicly vilifies and intimidates small campaigning groups with whom you disagree. As for ‘silencing’ Amnesty, I have neither the power nor the desire to do so. I want them to explain as loudly and extensively as possible why they are using their might and formerly lustrous reputation to attack small non-violent campaigning organisations with legally protected beliefs.

Terechte woede van Rowling. In regio Edinburgh is één opvangcentrum voor getraumatiseerde vrouwen na seksueel geweld, alleen voor en door vrouwen. Eéntje.

En dát is door het ontspoorde @AmnestyUK op een lijst "GEVAARLIJK" gezet. Want alleen vrouwen.

De schade is nu al enorm

[Elica Le Bon الیکا‌ ل بن @elicalebon]

You can tell that a movement seeks destruction of the west if it targets Jews.

Socialism -> “anti-Zionists”
Islamism -> anti-Jews
Naziism -> anti-Jews

Why? Because the west is built on Judeo-Christian values. Knocking down one pillar, or turning them against each other, leads to collapse.

That’s why the socialist far-left always joins the Islamist and Nazi far-right at their extremes. They may use different language, but they mean the same thing.

Amnesty International used to stand with the victims of sexual abuse, not the perpetrators. Something is very wrong at Amnesty.

UEFA banned Spain players for Gibraltar chants after the Euros final - not even in the stadium but the next day in Madrid?
So what should FIFA do about Argentina's Falklands banner?
It could be a test case to determine political messaging in stadiums in future

🚨 𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗖𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: FIFA has appointed Slavko Vinčić to officiate the World Cup final despite a disastrous season in Europe.

He is the same referee who allowed Germany’s offside goal against Portugal in the Nations League semifinal, even after VAR flagged it.

He was also arrested at a sex party six years ago where cocaine and firearms were reportedly found.

FIFA is trolling the entire world at this point. 😂

🚨⚠️📢 𝗠𝗔𝗝𝗢𝗥 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: UEFA distances itself from FIFA.

Italy, Germany, Portugal, Norway, and Ireland say Euro 2028 will prioritize transparency and the true spirit of football.

They are reportedly unhappy with Gianni Infantino’s political ties to Donald Trump, perceived favoritism toward certain teams at the World Cup, the treatment of Iran’s team during the tournament, and the controversies surrounding FIFA and the AFA.

They are also considering backing a candidate to challenge Gianni Infantino for the FIFA presidency amid growing criticism of FIFA.

God bless JK Rowling for her moral courage.

Divide and conquer. There's always one or two EU nations corrupt enough to block action against Russia, which is big reason Putin can keep the war on Ukraine going, and gives him hope to outlast the pressure.

“UNRWA exists only to perpetuate war, grievance, and terrorism. They’re not there for solutions. They’re there to make war. UNRWA has to be dismantled if we want peace with Israel and Palestinians.”
