His family immigrated to the US in 1998. He became a US citizen in 2018. And a short 6 years later, he became Mayor of its largest and greatest city and the most popular politician in the country. That possibility, offered by America, is worth fighting for. Thank you Mr. Mayor.
Studies in AUS found that since the social media ban went into effect teenagers are significantly less educated on news and events and more ignorant on what’s going on in the world. This is the goal. Western govts saw the rise of the information age and are seeking to quash it
Prof. Michael Hudson on the vocabulary of deception:
"Liberalism" is central planning by Wall Street and the Pentagon. "Democracy" is oligarchy with a vote for the manager. China, by acting on behalf of its population, is more democratic than the West.
UK Jewish MP: "Israel acting like Nazis in Gaza"
"Israel was born out of Jewish Terrorism - Tzipi Livni's Father was a Terrorist"
Astonishing claims in the House of Parliament. SIR Gerald Kaufman, the veteran Labour MP, compared the actions of Israeli troops in Gaza to the Nazis who forced his family to flee Poland.
During a Commons debate on the fighting in Gaza, he urged the government to impose an arms embargo on Israel.
Sir Gerald, who was brought up as an orthodox Jew and Zionist, said: "My grandmother was ill in bed when the Nazis came to her home town a German soldier shot her dead in her bed.
"My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza. The present Israeli government ruthlessly and cynically exploits the continuing guilt from gentiles over the slaughter of Jews in the Holocaust as justification for their murder of Palestinians."
He said the claim that many of the Palestinian victims were militants "was the reply of the Nazi" and added: "I suppose the Jews fighting for their lives in the Warsaw ghetto could have been dismissed as militants."
He accused the Israeli government of seeking "conquest" and added: "They are not simply war criminals, they are fools."
This was in 2009 when the truth could still be spoken in the UK Parliament
A lot of people are under the mistaken impression that progress means advances in tech. Real progress is kids who are literate, free meals for public school students, a culture in which human art & poetry are celebrated. We're regressing rapidly & the only way forward is to read.
2 prédios caindo no em Nova York foram suficientes para os EUA se meterem em 20 anos de guerra no Afeganistão. Israel destrói milhares de prédios civis e o povo local tem que aceitar calado. E quem contrariar, a porra da deputada chata pra caralho vai enquadrar como racista. TNC
Hussein Saleh lost 8 members of his family in an Israeli strike on their home, including his pregnant wife.
He found the head of his young daughter amid the rubble. “When I picked up her head, everything changed. Something in my heart broke and went silent.”
It is one of the most heartbreaking stories @NadaOHomsi and I have worked on during the war.
Nothing could justify such a horrific attack.
If 300+ people died and 1,000+ got injured in any place in the world.
London, NYC, Dubai, Toronto, Paris or any "major city" everyone would be screaming TERRORISM.
But when that HAPPENS within 10 minutes in an afternoon in Beirut, Lebanon by Israel suddenly the world switches up.
Disgusting.
Soviet Venera missions to Venus were pure peak human will. They launched probe after probe into the abyss, dozens over 20 yrs even after knowing Venus was a hellscape that have temperatures that melt lead, atmospheric pressure 90 times that of Earth, acid clouds that eat metal. There Early missions failed spectacularly. Crash landed. Parachutes ripped. Signals died. But they iterated like madlads obsessed with the game, for the raw pursuit of knowledge. In an era of "why go if it's not profitable", they did it for the love of the game.
Carroll, now a bright spot on our Moon, because four people, who traveled farther from Earth than any human in the 4.5-billion-year history of Earth has ever been, loved someone so much, they carried her the whole way there.
