UK officials destroyed files on one of the most brutal post-war conflicts they fought - the forgotten war for rubber in 1950s Malaya.
It was to cover up their crimes - mass bombings, decapitations, lying, forced villageisation👇

Almighty. Help those who are broken; with broken hearts and broken lives. Comfort them. Bless them with healing. Change their circumstances. Help them make sense of all the chaos going on around them. Make them feel whole again. Aameen.

Delving into our Rough Trade Essential album range, one weekend at a time.
An essential masterpiece that sits right up there alongside punk's most revered first-born. If we're talking landmark albums, The Slits' debut is a cut above the rest.
Why can’t we be happy when others do well? Be prepared for haters to come out in full force when you share your success story especially on social media. They might ridicule you, spread rumours about you or even spew harsh words. Don’t worry. Focus on what’s right & keep going.
America killed Bin Laden, what did it offer the people of Afghanistan afterward?
America killed Saddam Hussein, what did it offer the people of Iraq afterward?
America killed Yasser Arafat, what did it offer the people of Palestine afterward?
America killed Muammar Gaddafi, what did it offer the people of Libya afterward?
America killed Ali Abdullah Saleh, what did it offer the people of Yemen afterward?
America overthrew Bashar al-Assad, what did it offer the people of Syria afterward?
America arrested Nicolás Maduro, what did it offer the people of Venezuela?
America cannot be trusted; it is merely a colonial power exploiting peoples and resources.

I hate everyone who inflicted this nightmare upon my species. If you stand by this senseless US-Israeli act of depravity, then I consider you an enemy. And I will never stop reminding everyone of the psychotic agenda you supported.
You own this. This is on you. It's on you forever.
Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.
MEP MARC BOTENGA DROPS TRUTH BOMBS: “Why do we accept that Israel has a nuclear bomb? This is absolutely unacceptable”
“You call Iran the main threat, but look at Israel. Bombing Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Qatar”
“Secondly, why did you not condemn or even mention the fact that it was the United States that pulled out of the nuclear deal? It was not Iran..”
"Hey ho, let's go
Shoot them in the back now
What they want, I don't know
They're all revved up and ready to go"

Yes, you’re right. Singapore is the food haven. The precious gem. Tourists should visit Singapore for their cuisine. They serve the best laksa, nasi kerabu, nasi dagang, akok and asam pedas in this region. Don’t come to Malaysia. Our food is not very good.
Russia remains banned from participating in the Olympics for being at war with Ukraine.
Israel is allowed to participate after killing nearly 73,600 people in a genocide, around 20,000 of whom are children.
Can someone explain this to me?
