The net result of some unwise decisions is negotiating over a nuclear program that was previously contained and trying to reopen a Strait that wasn't closed.

Yes, I know. Nothing I can do about it. YouTube refuses to take these deep fakes down. And even if they do, they spring up faster than I can shut them down. I suppose we must all learn to doubt all we see and hear. Perhaps this is the beginning of social media's self-immolation...

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Israel’s bombs and starvation tactics in Gaza, along with their ethnic cleansing of East Jerusalem and the West Bank have not only placed a whole people on death row, have not only aimed at extinguishing Palestinian life from Palestine – no, they have done something else, something of universal, global significance. They have trashed the idea of Int Law, propelling humanity back to the prewar era where might-was-right even in law.

With the Int Court of Justice ignored, with the Int Criminal Court sanctioned and annulled, it is down to the Global Majority to defend human, political rights – to uphold Int Law. This is what the Gaza Tribunal is doing this week between 23rd and 26th October at Istanbul University. Watch, attend and support the Gaza Tribunal. For humanity’s sake.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

This moment isn’t just about one man’s greed, one man’s corruption or one man’s contempt for our Constitution.

It’s about the wealthiest people on earth who, in their insatiable greed, have hijacked our economy & politics to enrich themselves at the expense of working families.

Israel just bombed the Baptist Hospital killing 500 Palestinians (doctors, children, patients) just like that.

@POTUS this is what happens when you refuse to facilitate a ceasefire & help de-escalate.

Your war and destruction only approach has opened my eyes and many Palestinian Americans and Muslims Americans like me. We will remember where you stood.

Surprisingly, this might just be the most disappointed I have been in a US President #PalestineGenocide

@OwenJones84 In an information war, where one group has power to shape the narrative, deciding what's shared, how it's shared, when it's shared and by whom (US President's remarks), what chance in hell does a journalist have of getting "the facts" without a fair representation of real sources

[Séamus Malekafzali @Seamus_Malek]

If anybody wants to know what an actual level-headed mainstream media report on this should look like. It's physically possible.

[Séamus Malekafzali @Seamus_Malek]

And the Israeli PM's office has deleted their publishing of the video as well. Guess this narrative didn't work out so well, they'll try another tomorrow.https://t.co/yZXiB2W9Xb

🚨The UK taxpayer is covering 91% the cost of developing Rosebank.

Rosebank's owner Equinor is set to receive £3.75 BILLION in tax breaks for the field.

Equinor made £62 BILLION in profits last year.

@ThermoFisher is profiting from Tibetan human rights abuses. It's making thousands of dollars supplying the government of China with DNA kits. No company should be enabling the suppression of Tibetan freedoms. Sign the petition here:https://t.co/PYBzHfRzZw
