La marche contre l'antisémitisme, c'est une double négation

[Thomas Fazi @battleforeurope]

Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled “What the Wounds Tell” and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. “A single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targeted“, the two journalists write.

L'allemagne a perdu son siège au Conseil de Sécurité de l'ONU à cause de son colonialisme✌️

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

For the first time, Germany has failed to win a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council.

German FM Johann Wadephul blamed Russia, but also admitted Berlin's steadfast support for Israel cost it votes.

Le suicide est la 3eme cause de mortalité dans l’armée, les soldats en service ont représenté 78 % de tous les suicides en Israël. Des drogues sont administrées à des milliers de militaires au retour de Gaza. Le professeur Shaul Lev-Ran estime qu’entre 30 % et 50 % des Israéliens sont sous l’emprise d’une substance addictive. Une société coloniale finit toujours par tomber malade des crimes qu’elle commet et cautionne. https://t.co/xLuUh4bBts

Israel has kidnapped the sister of the president of Ireland.

[Red Collective @RedCollectiveUK]

We really need to talk more about how Israel admits it killed many of its own civilians on October 7th 2023.

Look how friendly they are.

In Jerusalem, nuns have to be escorted by members of the volunteer group Standing Together to protect them against Israeli settlers.

Yes, nuns need protection against Israeli settlers...

[Leïla Chaibi @leilachaibi]

C’est officiel : l’ingérence numérique visant Sébastien Delogu, David Guiraud et François Piquemal aux municipales serait liée... à la société israélienne BlackCore.

Les autorités "enquêtent pour déterminer qui aurait commandité la campagne".

D'une extrême gravité démocratique.

Announcing the preliminary program for Cedarcrypt — our inaugural applied cryptography summer school and conference, July 13–16, 2026 at the American University of Beirut - Mediterraneo in Paphos, Cyprus!

We've put together a program we're genuinely proud of — a pedagogical progression from accessible foundations to state-of-the-art constructions, featuring lectures, hands-on workshops, and research talks from leading voices across academia and industry.

The program spans everything from accessible foundations to cutting-edge research: Bart Preneel (KU Leuven) opens with a keynote, followed by deep dives into FHE with Emad Heydari Beni (Nokia Bell Labs), state-of-the-art hash-based SNARKs with Giacomo Fenzi (EPFL), and Zero-Knowledge Proofs with Tarek Galal (TU Berlin). Practitioners will hear from Zeke Hunter-Green how The Guardian built their anonymous whistleblowing system (CoverDrop + MLS), and a host of other guest speakers who will help attendees learn post-quantum migration strategies across lattices, isogenies, and codes, and get hands-on with threshold signing, MPC engineering, and constant-time programming — all in four days on the Mediterranean coast.

Organized in collaboration with the IACR, and hosted on Cyprus's Mediterranean coast — a UNESCO World Heritage city where you can step from a workshop on threshold signing straight to a seaside taverna.

Thanks to our generous sponsors — Electi, PQShield, Symbolic Software, Zama, and several anonymous donors — we're offering FULL SCHOLARSHIPS (travel + lodging) to students and early-career researchers, awarded on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted.

Graduate students, early-career researchers, and practitioners in applied cryptography: we built this for you!

Join us this July in sunny Paphos! Let's make this an inaugural event to remember!

Le Liban appelle à l'aide contre le carnage organisé par Netanyahu et son armée. La France doit intervenir. La Finul doit être mise en état d'empêcher l'agression. Il est temps de mettre Netanyahu hors d'état de nuire au monde.

So many of you are shocked by Trump's behavior & methods.
But this is what Israel has been doing almost continuously for 80 years & you fucks kept looking the other way.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

BREAKING: Greta Thunberg just eviscerated Trump for his comments about wiping out an entire civilization, dropping multiple F-bombs in the process.

"The President of the United States just said that a whole civilization will die tonight and never to be brought back again and no one is reacting. This speaks for itself, what the f--k is anyone even doing at this point? We have normalized genocide, total annihilation of entire people, the systematic destruction of the biosphere which we are all depending on to survive, and that corrupt racist war criminals can act with complete impunity. But even though we have allowed far too much so far, it is not too late to say 'stop!' If we don’t, we shouldn’t f--king be able to call ourselves human"

TRUMP: “The Iranians are animals. That’s why blowing up their bridges and power stations isn’t a war crime.”

I’m at loss for words.

This is a public library in Iran. This is what the uneducated Epstein class wants to destroy.

You could tell an American this was filmed in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and they’d believe you. It’s Tehran.

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

Absolute bombshell on Al Jazeera. The US and Israel have deliberately bombed over 30 universities across Iran, assassinating professors in their homes and massacring over 60 students. Washington is systematically trying to destroy Iranian scientific progress.
