And our vile government refuses visas to Palestinian students signed up for courses here — just days after President Catherine Connolly welcomed an earlier group who were allowed enter and wished them well in their studies.

Absolutely outrageous from our government, the reasons for refusal are a disgrace and the appeals process is impossible.

HOLY SHIT 🇩🇪🚨
A woman in Germany says “Free Palestine.” Police swarm, cover her mouth, drag her down like a beast
That slogan is now banned in Germany because it’s considered antisemitic
If you say it, the state silences you by force

Italy, France, Greece did it again.
Three Rome Statute parties opened their airspace to fugitive Netanyahu, in breach of their obligation to cooperate with the ICC.
I call on competent authorities to investigate possible complicity.
The people of Albania have not stopped protesting against their government and prime minister for selling off public land to Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. Today they blasted their politicians’ cars with eggs. This is day 54 of the Flamingo Revolution. 🦩
@wallacemick I asked Claude to find any analysis of the Irish media’s coverage of the Gaza #genocide from any journalism college, academic, or student. After almost three years of slaughter, Claude could not find a single one.
If people are unaware of the truth about Western Powers over the last 80 years,"it is because the Western Media has functioned as a powerful propaganda system of lies, narrative control + manipulation of the public. That negates the very Western notions of democracy + freedom"...
It is absolutely astonishing what Israel has been able to achieve in the West in the last 24-48 hours.
First, they made the US announce they will give Saudi Arabia nuclear technologies and materials, only to then condition it on joining the Open Zionist Whore Program, aka 'Abraham Accords'.
Second, they passed a legislation in the House of Representatives in the US that will make the US military a subdivision of the IDF.
Third, they got France and the UK to support the expansion of the war against Iran, with both countries evacuating their diplomatic staff from Tehran.
Fourth, they installed a new puppet in Britain that immediately quadrupled the UK's involvement in this war: yes to use of British bases everywhere; a reported yes to participating in demining the Persian Gulf, and what looks like a general agreement to support the war effort in every way possible.
This is only the 5% of that we can publicly see; imagine all the other 95%.
We live in an entirely, 100% Israeli-made theater production. Every event and every news coverage have been carefully curated to advance Israel's ambitions.
The power that this country has, 3 years into the worst televised catastrophe in human history, is simply staggering. It is almost unnatural, almost supernatural (only it's not).
It also tells us that we're very close to the end. They are rushing like this because all the windows and doors are closing. They have to be visibly awkward, hasty and clumsy. They have to expose themselves.
The one power that won't play along according to the provided script is proving an insurmountable obstacle, and the whole house of cards is shaking, and soon will come down.
Israel's unnatural power over the West will be the doom of both. Because Khamenei and his people saw all this 40 years ago, and they prepared like no one ever prepared for anything (after milenia of civilizational self-reliance, independence, and dignity).
I don't know why anyone watches any dumb movie. Reality now is arguably the most fascinating thing ever put up
French actor and former footballer Eric Cantona has called for a sporting boycott of Israeli teams, urging clubs and players around the world to refuse participation against them.
Exactly right. The truth is that the EU was never on the side of Ukrainians. Behind all of the fatuous sloganeering about "listening to" and "standing with" Ukrainians "as long as it takes," nobody in European capitals has ever actually given a damn about them.
Their deaths have been treated as an abstraction. The catastrophic violence that is being done to Ukrainians is not only being done by Russian military. It is also being done by the Ukrainian war state and the merciless conditionalities imposed by its sponsors in the EU, who will only accept what is clearly impossible - outright Russian defeat on the battlefield - as an end to this vile war.
Ukrainian men are literally trapped inside a nightmare by this intransigence, blocked from leaving the country, denied temporary protection by EU countries and sent back, beaten into submission on their streets and stuffed into recruitment vans by mobilisation squads, sent to be slaughtered in a horrific war that European leaders insist must continue, but would never dream of fighting in themselves.
All while the war consumes every vestige of state capacity, heaving the people of Ukraine into generational debt, converting public wealth into ruins, transferring state assets into private hands, minting a new brood of oligarchs out of the grand scale embezzlement of war funds, digging a deeper and deeper hole for the people of Ukraine, from which even if the war ended they could never climb out of.
I agree that "we" cannot keep telling Ukrainians "we" are "on their side." Nobody who has any power in Europe ever was.
🇺🇸 Trump y Marco Rubio repiten una y otra vez que el socialismo trae pobreza.
Mientras tanto, las calles de Los Ángeles ofrecen esta imagen del “éxito” del capitalismo: miles de personas sobreviviendo entre tiendas de campaña, durmiendo en las aceras, atrapadas por la pobreza, la exclusión y las adicciones, mientras unos pocos acumulan una riqueza obscena.
Qué curioso. Quienes se presentan como defensores de la libertad no parecen tener ningún problema con que millones de personas carezcan de lo más básico, siempre que los beneficios de las grandes fortunas sigan creciendo.
Quizá el problema no sea el socialismo del que tanto hablan, sino un sistema que convierte derechos en privilegios y abandona a quienes ya no son rentables.
Menos propaganda neofascista y anticomunista y más responsabilidad con su propio pueblo.

Netanyahu ispanya'yı
açıkça tehdit ediyor:
"Bunun bedelini ödemek üzeresiniz. İspanya İsrail’e karşı durduktan hemen sonra yaşanan elektrik kesintilerini ve gizemli tren kazalarını asla unutmayın.”
Ne diyor bu?
İspanya içinde terör saldırıları yapacaklarını söylüyor.
Dünya bunu böyle not etmeli.
Ve İspanya'nın cevabı:
"Sizi karalamıyoruz, tanımlıyoruz: Siz soykırımcı ve suçlu bir rejimsiniz. Hepiniz Uluslararası Ceza Mahkemesi'nin önüne çıkacaksınız."
According to my analysis of current events in the Gulf, titanic changes in power are about to happen.
* Kuwait will be taken over by Shia Muslims in southern Iraq with help from Iranian Quds forces.
* in northern Iraq, Iranian backed militias will overthrow the Iraqi government and attack the Kurds.
* Turkish military may attack the Kurds and take parts of Syria.
* Hezbollah will expel the IDF from Southern Lebanon and they will seize settlements in in Northern Israel, the West Bank, and the Golan Heights.
* Hamas will take over Gaza and Southern Israel.
* Iran will destroy the financial, economic, commercial, government, and technological sectors in Israel. It will become a failed state with a collection of settlements and citizens who can’t afford to leave.
* The House of Saud will fall. Saudi Arabia imports 90 percent of food and is wholly dependent on desalination plants for water. With the blockade they have about 3 weeks of food. When Iran takes out their power & water plants the rich including MBS will flee.
* Ansar Allah will overthrow the Saudi backed Yemeni government.
* The Shia majority population of Bahrain will take over. Once the bridge connecting Saudi Arabia to Bahrain is completely destroyed they can’t stop them.
* Iran has systematically destroyed all the possible forward operating bases used by American military bases in the region. Leaving only one, Ben Gurion in Israel.
* I think the large build up of American troops and assets is not for offensive purposes but rather to DEFEND ISRAEL.

A months-long Sky News investigation into the US double-tap strike on a Minab girls' school found the Pentagon had tracked the site by satellite since 1987 and could still count children's shadows in the courtyard before firing anyway.
What the evidence shows:
Three Tomahawk missiles fired from the USS Spruance, 716 kilometers away in the Arabian Sea, hit the Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab on Feb 28, the opening day of the US-Israeli war on Iran. Witnesses described a second strike hitting the exact spot where a teacher had moved surviving students for shelter, killing nearly everyone who had taken cover there. A third strike followed on the same site. Death tolls range from 156 to over 170, most of them girls aged seven to twelve. The school had been walled off from the adjacent IRGC naval base since at least 2015, had its own website, and was geolocatable through open-source materials any analyst could have pulled in minutes.
Built to fail:
The Pentagon's own machinery for preventing exactly this outcome had already been dismantled. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth slashed the Civilian Protection Center of Excellence workforce by roughly 90 percent and cut CENTCOM's civilian casualty assessment team from ten people to one, months before the war started. A May Pentagon Inspector General report found the office had become a shell on paper with no budget, no mandate, no real mission. A functioning warning system was defunded on purpose, then blamed for not warning anyone.
Accountability buried:
Four months on, CENTCOM's commander told reporters the investigation was near complete, yet nothing has been released. Asked in June whether anyone would face consequences, Trump called it a strange question, adding that mistakes are made and war is nasty. The mistake was choosing not to fund the office that exists to catch mistakes like this one.
My take: A military that surveilled a schoolyard for four decades didn't fail to see the children, it decided in advance that seeing them wouldn't change the targeting. Nobody in this chain lacked information.
