@larryelder People wanted to end US support to a genocide where Israel had massacred 15.000 innocent children, are not Hamas-supporters.
They are the pro-life, America-first moral fabric of the US
Quite a statement by the International Criminal Court, asking that they stop being "intimidated" and "threatened" (no brownie point for guessing by whom...)
We can only imagine the pressure they must be under...
And those threats are real: remember that the US has a law colloquially known as the "Hague Invasion Act", that authorizes the president of the U.S. "to use all means necessary to bring about the release of any person described in subsection (b) who is being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court" (https://t.co/w328JmbVXF).
And a reminder that starting in 2019 the US DID implemented sanctions and travel restrictions against ICC employees engaged in investigating potential allied war crimes in Afghanistan. As part of this the ICC's Chief Prosecutor at the time, Fatou Bensouda, and the Head of the Jurisdiction, Complementarity, and Cooperation Division, Phakiso Mochochoko, were both subjected to asset freezes and travel bans!
I am at Charles De Gaule airport. O was supposed to speak in tge French parliament. They are preventing me from entering France. They say the Germans put a 1 year ban on my entry to Europe
@wrdcsc She talks about Zionists.
You start talking about Jews. Seems like you are the problem here?
Zionism is a political movement.
Most Zionists are not Jews. Many Jews are not Zionists.
Quite incredible (but not surprised) to see Macron tell a lie in his interview to the Economist.
He says "today, China has an overcapacity of vehicles and exports them on a massive scale, particularly to Europe".
So let's look at the facts. China indeed is the most important source of imports for cars into Europe (https://t.co/reDHvzR1lO) BUT, and this is very important, Chinese brands only claimed a ridiculously small 2.5% market share of the European market last year (https://t.co/NyjtEpLVOq), with 75% of that being MG, a British car brand bought by Chinese group SAIC Motor. Without MG, Chinese car brands only have a 0.6% market share in Europe!
Why the discrepancy? Because the immense majority of cars imported from China into Europe aren't Chinese cars, they're made-in-China cars by foreign brands. For instance, if you look at EV cars specifically, Tesla alone accounts for 68% of the EVs imported from China and registered in Western Europe (https://t.co/Mq5HAa1H5V).
Can you then say that "China has an overcapacity of vehicles and exports them on a massive scale" when those vehicles are in fact not Chinese, but American, like Tesla? No, of course not. It'd be like blaming China for Apple's dominant market share in the phone market, because they're made there...
The truth is that China, as in Chinese brands, sell a ridiculously low number of vehicles in Europe, so small it's almost a rounding error. Which is a key reason why this "overcapacity" rhetoric vs China is so misleading.
@thehealthb0t Does it matter if they continue to produce healthy products?
Sincere question!
I am not so much into who owns the production line. But I want healthy, affordable, non-toxic food and drink
Here, let me destroy Bari Weiss' "argument" in less than 1 minute of writing:
Bari Weiss can't find a single example of an anti-Semitic student or professor not being expelled or fired for actual racist slurs directed at Jewish students, because they always are. In fact, countless professors have been fired for just being critical of Israel. Here's a test: Find one student who said an anti-Semitic slur to a Jewish student, and wasn't expelled. Find one. You can't, because they don't exist. Bari Weiss knows they don't exist, so she has to lie.
And she lies by conflating "Intifada" and "From the River to the Sea" chants with anti-Semitism, and then conflates that with the N-word, and then goes "well students get expelled for the N-word, but not Intifada, ergo contradiction!!!"
"Now censor more for Zionism after having already passed a bill to make it illegal across the US."
This is the most asinine pathetic propaganda that a 6 year old can easily uncover, but it works on Zionists because they want it to work. They're in a genocidal death-cult, and will grasp at anything to defend it and push for more censorship to safeguard it.
@bariweiss Intifada means resistance.
It is not racist or anti-Semitic.
If you can't stand to hear people supporting Palestine's right to resistance against occupation and genocide, stay away from the protests.
I’ve been wearing a nice big Star of David necklace this entire time at Columbia, and oddly experienced no “Anti-Semitic Harassment.” It’s almost like the people who claim to experience such “harassment” deliberately go around trying to provoke it for social media clout
@ElonMuskAOC You really think we need more America-last groups going out of their way to support Biden's policies of transferring US tax payers' money to foreign wars?
Weird
@savsays Weird logic.
Israel massacres 14000 children in deliberate attacks on civilians.
Bit students can't use their 1st amendment right to object because George Floyd had a record?
Israel's genocide destroyed conservatives' brains in no time
@NYPDDaughtry @CityCollegeNY@NYPDPC@NYPD1stDep@NYPDChiefOfDept@NYPDChiefPatrol@NYPDnews Greta that you stopped a legal protest using 1st Amendment rights to oppose Biden policies.
All it took was resistance to Israel's genocide, and so-called conservatives joined the America last train.
Foreign wars are more important than freedom and the US constitution.
@BBCBreaking Wow. Zionist extremists attack a peaceful protest against Israel's genocide.
And BBC somehow frames it as something very different.
Is this the kind of disinformation they warned us about?
@CitizenFreePres Arrested for using his 1st Amendment rights to oppose Biden policies of America last.
All it took was resistance to Israel's genocide, and so-called conservatives joined the America last train.
Foreign wars are more important than freedom and the US constitution.
Sad
@OopsGuess@CollinRugg It will also minimize our carbon footprint, as the number of flights between US/Europe and the Middle East would be drastically reduced.
Israel's bombing raids against Arabs also contribute enormously to pollution.
It would be a win for Mother Earth
@areichardt@panyiszabolcs But isn't it ok to monitor how foreign money is used to influence politics and elections?
Who demonstrates for the right to receive funding from abroad to influence elections?
US has a very similar law, that seems to be ok?
