@LoschSandra Und auch: es war meine Eltern ihr vllt größtes Ziel, das zu ermöglichen.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Many people are rediscovering the Gospel and embracing the faith against the backdrop of a society marked by a deeply secularized culture. With pastoral tenderness and fraternal charity, we must recognize, welcome, and protect the small flame that the Holy Spirit has kindled in the darkness of the night. #ApostolicJourney #France https://t.co/Uhu1qqqrzO

Twenty-five years ago, a woman stood in the hole an airliner had punched through the North Tower and waved for a hundred minutes.

She is in dozens of photographs and several video clips. People have been arguing about her for a quarter century. Her name, almost certainly, was Edna Cintrón.

She was 46. She worked as an assistant billing administrator at Marsh & McLennan, on the 97th floor.

Flight 11 hit that building at 8:46 and tore open floors 93 through 99. It went through her company. Marsh lost 295 employees and 63 consultants that morning, more than any other firm in the North Tower.

Minutes after the impact, people on the street and photographers on rooftops started noticing movement in the gash itself. A woman had made it to the torn edge of the floor slab, where the aluminum had peeled the wall open and there was outside air. She was leaning against a piece of the ruined exterior column, and she was waving her right arm.

She kept doing it.

Here is the part that is hard to sit with. Nobody was coming. All three stairwells in the North Tower were severed at impact. The roof doors were locked and the smoke made a helicopter landing impossible. Not one person at or above the 92nd floor of that building survived, 1,355 people in total, and that was already true at 8:46, before she ever reached the opening.

She had no way of knowing that. So she stood there in the wind, 1,300 feet up, and signaled for help to a city that could see her perfectly and could not reach her.

Witnesses and footage put her still there, still waving, until roughly ten seconds before the tower came down at 10:28.

She was never formally identified. Her remains were never recovered, and the identification rests on video and photographic analysis and on the people who knew her recognizing her. Her husband William believed it was her. They had been through a lot together, including a period without a home, and she had carried him through his drinking.

So the honest way to say it is this. We are nearly certain who she was, and we are completely certain what she did, which was refuse to stop asking for help for a hundred minutes on the worst morning in American history.

Her name was Edna Cintrón.

25 years ago, america mourned together. a long, confusing process. but we were a country. if it happened today the streamers would be blaming trump and the jews by this afternoon, and leftoids on tiktok would be saying the bankers deserved it. we’ve lost more than we realize.

Il passaggio da Cesare Maldini a Gianni Rivera, a Franco Baresi e poi a Paolo Maldini e una sequenza praticamente irripetibile.

Che cosa abbiamo vissuto, ed è questo il dolore più grande. L'immenso Milanismo in campo, non esiste più.
Il saluto a Franco è il saluto al Milan

🚨🎙️Paolo Maldini Breaks His Silence on the Current FIGC Situation:

“When Leonardo and I accepted these roles, we did so with one clear understanding: that we would be trusted to lead the sporting project and be given the authority to make football decisions. Unfortunately, it became clear that we were handed responsibilities without the power to fulfil them.”

“Many will assume this decision is simply about Andrea Pirlo. It is not. We supported him because, after careful evaluation, we believed he was the right man to begin Italy’s rebuild. You may agree or disagree with that choice—that is football. What cannot happen is asking people to carry responsibility while denying them the authority to act.”

“I have always been a man of principles. Throughout my career, whether as a player or an executive, I have never believed in compromising my values to protect a position. If I cannot defend a vision I genuinely believe in, then I have no reason to remain.”

“We accepted these roles believing we had the mandate to make difficult decisions for the future of Italian football. The moment we realised that mandate no longer existed, our decision was simple.”

“We did not resign because our preferred candidate was rejected. We resigned because the trust that brought us here disappeared. Without trust, leadership becomes a title, not a responsibility.”

Der Eindruck, die britische Polizei messe mit zweierlei Maß, ist leider keine Verschwörungstheorie. In der Einwanderungsgesellschaft Großbritannien passieren immer wieder Tragödien, weil Verantwortliche sich lieber wegducken, als das Risiko einzugehen, des Rassismus bezichtigt zu werden. Etwas breiterer Hintergrund zum Fall Henry Nowak.

[Jochen Bittner @JochenBittner]

Dieser Post des britischen Premiers löst so viel Wut aus, weil er nicht den Mut aufbringt, hinreichend kritisch mit sich selbst zu sein.

Der 18jährige Henry Nowak starb an Stichverletzungen, nachdem Polizisten ihn in Handschellen gelegt hatten. Sie glaubten seinem Mörder die Behauptung, Nowak habe ihn rassistisch beleidigt.

Nach der Tötung von George Floyd ging Starmer auf die Knie.
Der Tod eines eigenen Staatsbürgers unter den Augen von Polizisten löste dagegen keine vergleichbare politische Anteilnahme aus.

Die Leute sind eben nicht so sehr wütend wegen „knife crime“, sondern wegen der Doppelmoral, die ihnen geboten wurde.

Aber genau die kann Starmer natürlich nicht thematisieren, ohne sich selbst zu hinterfragen.

This feels less like a failure of Italy and more like a failure of judgment.

Moving to a rural part of a foreign country with a young family, praising its beauty, cheap rent, free childcare, warm people, and better quality of life.

Then, deciding to leave because bureaucracy was annoying, Catholic culture felt too strong, and learning the language was too hard.

That is a confession that you wanted the rewards of another civilization without paying the price of entering it.

If you cannot adapt to the language, the customs, or the pace of the place, the problem is not that the country failed you.

The problem is that you mistook tourism with better weather for belonging.
