@SjoerdvanHoorn @Athenaeum Je kunt op vrijdagen beter naar de antiquarische boekenmarkt op het spui gaan, pal voor Athenaeum. Wat betreft Duits- en Franstalige (en Nederlands- en Engelstalige) boeken veel beter.

This left-right alliance between libertarian non-interventionists with peace advocates — is the unrecognized axis that runs through everything happening today, and it is invisible because people are wrapped around the axle of partisan division.

@GeorgyKantor Here you can see the weaselly response from “a spokesperson for Cardiff University”, nicely skewered by a genuine university source who asks (inter alia) “If they are not removing or disposing of books, where are they all going to go?”: https://t.co/WT8lPKzRSf

Nederlands schip in Middellandse Zee weggestuurd door Turkse marine. Dat gebeurde begin april toen het schip tussen het Griekse eiland Rhodos en Egypte werkzaamheden wilde uitvoeren. Dat werd niet toegestaan door Turkije. Meer: https://t.co/FrLTIlVksL

In the village of Shama in southern Lebanon, the IDF has reduced the mausoleum of Simon Peter,an apostle of Christ, to ruins.
Two thousand years of history, wiped away in a single moment......

Seems like Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 🇺🇦 Lviv is burning after being hit by a Russian shahed drone.

Russia’s war on God goes on.

[Mark Galeotti @MarkGaleotti]

This. The Russians love to stoke the “Narva next” myth because it suits their narrative goals. But why do western journalists and commentators also so often fall for it? Sure, it’s handy clickbait and suits those eager to present an imminent threat, but it’s deeply unhelpful

[John Bolton @AmbJohnBolton]

I favor regime change in Iran, but I'm deeply worried that inadequate preparation will prevent that goal from being achieved. There seem to be holes in the strategy, from the lack of coordination with the opposition, to the lapse in preparing the American people ahead of the attack.

Messias Vladimir Poetin heeft de Rooms Katholieke en de Grieks Katholieke kerk vrijwel volledig ontmanteld in door Rusland bezet gebied in Oekraïne.

[Ukraine - Combat Footage Archive 🇬🇪 🇺🇦 @Bodbe6]

Dear Lindsey Graham, I wish the same speed, courage, and determination you have shown toward Iran had also been shown toward Russia. I do not criticize your actions against the Iranian regime. - but I cant ignore the contrast.

You probably remember the police officer from Mariupol who pleaded with American lawmakers to help deliver air defense systems as quickly as possible. You may also recall the period when all of Ukraine was asking for the sky to be closed.

Ukrainians were not asking for Russia to be bombed or for actions like those taken in Iran - they were simply asking for protection of their airspace and for the interception of the Russian and Iranian drones and missiles that were striking peaceful cities.

Four years have passed since this video address, and not much has changed. Saying that Ukraine is far away and that someone else should worry about it changes nothing - Iran is even farther away than Ukraine.

If justice shouldn’t depend on geography, then neither should support for Ukraine - yet hesitation and escalation fears constantly slow the help Ukrainians need to survive an ongoing invasion. . .
