With great sadness, we received information about the passing of Auschwitz Survivor Julia Wallach, who died at the age of 101.
Julia Wallach, née Kac, was born on 14 June 1925 in Paris as the only daughter of Polish Jewish immigrants. During the German occupation of France in July 1942, her mother Marie was arrested in the Vel’ d’Hiv roundup. Julia never saw her again.
On 24 April 1943, Julia and her father Joseph were arrested after being denounced. They were imprisoned in Drancy. On 23 June 1943, they were deported to Auschwitz in transport no. 55. Julia was 18 years old. In the camp, she was registered as prisoner no. 46645.
Her father did not survive. Julia owed her survival in part to one of her cousins, whom she met there, and who advised her never to miss work, under any circumstances, or she too would go "up the chimney". Julia listened and went to work, even though she was extremely ill with typhus.
In January 1945, she was taken on an evacuation march. During the following months, she was transferred westward, including to Ravensbrück. In April 1945, she managed to escape during a death march and eventually reached American soldiers.
After the war, she recovered the family apartment in Paris, married a fellow survivor, and raised two children. From the 1960s onward, and with growing intensity in recent decades, Wallach spoke regularly in schools and public events about her deportation and life in Auschwitz. In the 2020s her testimony reached wider audiences through films made by her granddaughter, filmmaker Frankie Wallach. In 2022, she was awarded the Légion d’honneur for her educational work.
May her memory be a blessing.

PRICELESS! Israel's Ambassador to the UN approached the Iranian representative and offered him the Star-link internet service for free, after the Islamic regime cut off the internet in Iran to hide their crimes against Iranian people.
En 1991 fueron encontradas unas 40 fosas comunes en La Uribe, Meta, con restos atribuidos a ejecuciones internas de las #FARC. La cifra supera los 400 cuerpos o restos humanos.
No es ideología, es memoria. La sociedad nunca debe olvidar lo que las FARC le hicieron al pais. ¡Asesinos!
Heartbreaking to see this 10-month-old Siberian Husky tied to a pole and abandoned like he meant nothing.
We urgently need stricter animal welfare laws and heavy penalties for those who abandon pets!

Université de Liège (Bel) : le médiatique professeur et ingénieur Damien Ernst, proche du centre droit, a été agressé en plein cours aux cris de "facho" et "collabo". L'attaque a été revendiquée par le "Comité éthique ULiège", un groupe antifa.
This is the reality behind the bars at @karachi_zoo . A visibly emaciated lion stands on concrete. Where is the veterinary care, proper nutrition and basic welfare these animals deserve? This is not acceptable.@KmcPakistan@murtazawahab1
A black teenager beat a 9 year old white girl nearly to death.
Gets off with a “stern warning.”
I wonder what would have happened had a white teenager beat a black 9 years old girl?
Until we start throwing these monsters in prison for decades it’s only going to get worse.

#OBSERVE. Un intento de hurto fue frustrado en un restaurante de la loc/Usaquén, en Bogotá, cuando comensales y testigos alertaron a tiempo sobre la presencia de un par de muejeres y otro sujeto que al parecer actuaba como 'campanero' a las afueras del establecimiento comercial.

He's now charged with criminal homicide, aggravated assault, burglary, and criminal trespass.
Back in February, according to a criminal complaint, Hemingway forced his way into his ex-partner's home and stole her laptop and two cell phones.
He was arrested in July. Two felonies. Burglary and theft.
And he was released on a NONMONETARY bond. Not a dime. He just walked out.
Say his name. Dr. Idris Evans.
PLEASE PRAY FOR HIS WIFE TO PULL THROUGH!!!!!
WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!!

For nearly 20 days, feeders say they have been stopped from feeding community dogs across PAU, Ludhiana, with the feeding van denied access.
Dogs are now reportedly reduced to skin & bones. Students struggled just to get one sick dog out through Gate 8 for treatment.
Earlier, concerns were raised over the relocation of a mother dog with newborn pups. Now this.
What exactly is PAU trying to achieve by preventing animals from being FED?
Hunger is not population control.
Starvation is not management.
LET THEM EAT.

After 10 years guarding their home, the dogs owner, a Chinese lady, tied the dogs mouth shut and sold her to the butcher in front of her puppy, who is sold for soup.
#BoycottChina For the animals.
There is NO #ChinaAnimalProtectionLaw and no loyalty in return to dogs.
The deepest betrayal doesn't come from an enemy; it comes from the person you trusted to protect you.Abandoning a dog on a highway requires a specific kind of cold, calculated cruelty. You have to pack the car, put the dog in, drive to a desolate place, open the door, and look into those trusting eyes knowing you are about to sentence them to starvation or death under a truck. You drive away looking in the rearview mirror, while they sit there, completely confused, guarding the last spot they saw you. It is a level of cowardice that no other species on Earth exhibits.If you can dissolve a bond of unconditional love just because life got complicated, you haven't just failed as an owner—you’ve failed as a human being. How do we fix a society that treats living souls like roadside trash? 👇
