A Financial Times investigative documentary has found evidence that Russian executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war are not isolated incidents but are likely to be part of a broader pattern that points to a systematic policy.

Warning: this film contains distressing images

Mr. Snyder wrote two books on nazism. That’s two more books than all the books MTG ever read.

She even whipped out the good old “proof card”. Low effort.

It might be more enlightening if they would have read it from Afganistan, together with the Afghan girls during their school time.

Over the past 24 hours, thousands of TikToks (at least) have been posted where people share how they just read Bin Laden’s infamous "Letter to America," in which he explained why he attacked the United States.

The TikToks are from people of all ages, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds. Many of them say that reading the letter has opened their eyes, and they’ll never see geopolitical matters the same way again.

Many of them — and I have watched a lot — say it has made them reevaluate their perspective on how what is often labeled as terrorism can be a legitimate form of resistance to a hostile power.

This is not limited to TikTok; similar videos have been posted on other social media platforms.

The Guardian had a copy of “Letter to America” posted, but once these TikToks went viral, the Guardian took it down, which has only led to more interest in the letter and conspiracies from TikTokers who say this is part of the media and the powers that control it trying to silence the truth.

Antisemitism is never about the Jews; it’s a warning system. It’s a sign that the society itself is breaking down, that it is dying. It is a symptom of a much deeper crisis.

Assad is talking about protecting Palestinians.
Meanwhile his army was executing Palestinians in Syria like shown in the upper video.

[Ted Deutch, CEO of American Jewish Committee @AJCCEO]

This is an excellent summary of Israel, Hamas, the history of this conflict, and why there cannot be a ceasefire.

Thank you @HillaryClinton.

Good video explaining why other Arab nations are unwilling to take in hundreds of thousands of refugees from Gaza.

Lebanon, Jordan and Kuwait all have terrible experiences with Palestinian refugees. This video explains it.

Iconic video of occupiers of Afrin demonstrating. Turkey ethnically cleansed this town & replaced the Kurds, Yazidis and Christians with Arabs. Nobody said NO. Nobody asked for a regional “peace” conference.

Dear @EdiRamaal, today at the UNSC you showed the world how to correctly handle Russia, its lies, and its hypocrisy. I thank you for steering the Presidency in such a principled manner.

Same-sex scandals from the Islamic Republic of Iran to the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: A video obtained by @AFIntlBrk shows influential Taliban official Mullah Ahmad Akhond sleeping with his bodyguard.
Sources say he has a history of similar relationships with young Talibs.

One of the largest opposition parties in Italy, the 5 Star Movement, continues to call on Meloni to stop sending weapons to Ukraine

Some of them even claim that it would make it possible for Russia to win the war and thus the killing would stop

Meloni answers like a boss!

🚨Former US Vice President Pence (R) urged the White House to immediately arm Ukraine to the teeth and act like the strongest military in the world that we are because Ukraine's victory against Russia is a victory for the entire free world including the US.💯Interview from Kyiv.
