Excited to share that my article on the Palestinian diaspora in Latin America has been published! Read the full article here‼️

"Everyone from the diaspora can relate to how moving it is to return home; it changes you as a person."

[Asoc.Diplomática y Consular de Colombia @asodiplo]

Invitamos a leer la entrada del día, en nuestro blog “Ese extraño oficio llamado Diplomacia”. Importante reflexión sobre lo que significa pertenecer a la Carrera Diplomática y Consular, como funcionarios que trabajan para el Estado y no para el Gobierno de turno. La autora pone bajo escrutinio las palabras de Weber en el contexto actual para argumentar que “(…) el funcionario no puede “despojarse de sí mismo”; por el contrario, debe hallar valor en el disentimiento y más aún, hallar el valor en la humanidad y el criterio del diplomático, en lugar de en su capacidad de seguir órdenes ciegamente.”

Just a few thoughts jotted down: https://t.co/7erHxf1e8d

Important meeting with young advocates at the Youth Rights Academy, hosted by my Office with Education Above All @EAA_Foundation.

The passion and activism of young leaders is not just inspiring — it is the clearest hope for a just and peaceful world.

🇨🇴🤝🇶🇦 | En un año clave para la relación bilateral, Odette Marie Yidi David, tomó posesión como Embajadora de Colombia en Qatar, coincidiendo con la apertura de nuestra Embajada y los 30 años del establecimiento de relaciones diplomáticas.

Su labor fortalecerá los lazos de amistad y cooperación entre ambos países.

Grateful for the opportunity to present a research paper I co-authored with @fairuz1510, titled “Decolonizing Genocide”. This research paper critically examines the persistent contestation of genocide and investigates media’s role in obstructing recognition.

Excited to kick off the #Rawabet conference on Journalism in the Global South @NUQatar. Over the next two days, we’ll examine the challenges and opportunities facing journalism today. Grateful to everyone who helped bring this timely dialogue to life.

🔵 #MinAmbienteCol | En el evento Voces hacia la #COP16, reafirmé, como ministra, que la movilización de los pueblos es clave para enfrentar la crisis ambiental. No basta con decisiones de gobiernos; necesitamos la fuerza de la sociedad, de nuestras comunidades, para lograr transiciones justas. Vamos a seguir construyendo redes y visibilizando las luchas por la #PazConLaNaturaleza, porque la vida debe estar en el centro de nuestras palabras y de nuestros actos.

[Northwestern Qatar @NUQatar]

@NUQatar student Fairuz Yosef explores the intricate relationship between displacement and identity for Latin American Palestinians in an article for @The_NewArab, emphasizing how "return" influences their cultural identity as a blend of physical and emotional yearning.

She’s desperate to be attacked but no one is giving a shit lol

[zeead yaghi | زياد ياغي @7_eead]

I know Israelis are fine desecrating anything, but I can't emphasize how jarring it is that their bombing on Beirut yesterday damaged one of the oldest sacred cemeteries in the city. It's the final resting place of many old Beirut Sunni families, of Ottoman Pashas and governors.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Bravo BBC, that’s a headline. We knew you could do it.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Apparently, Beirut is just exploding on its own.

[Ghida @ghidaarnaout]

This @MTVLebanonNews reporter is justifying the killing of the 7 paramedics who lost their lives yesterday
night.
In other words, she's saying that if you belong to any entity of the party that she hates, it's okay if you die.
MTV should move their channel to Tel Aviv.

We are hosting the last sprint race of the 2024 season. What exactly is a sprint weekend, and how does it differ from a regular race weekend? 🤔

Welcome to #F101, where we break it all down for you! 🏆

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

You have to admire the @WashingtonPost editors, who show unmatched creativity in finding ways not to use the word “invasion” when discussing what Israel is doing to Lebanon right now. 🇱🇧

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

It was never about the hostages.

[Laila Al-Arian @LailaAlarian]

Israel won’t stop killing Arab journalists in multiple countries

[reb @rebmasel]

“what radicalized you?” probably my basic human empathy

[Fai @fairuz1510]

Western journalism has completely discarded accurate, factual terms like "ground invasion" in favor of softer language like "sends troops."

[Eli Clifton @EliClifton]

Is there another word for sending troops across an internationally recognized border without the other country’s permission?

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

How do you ‘soften’ news of an invasion your government is funding and supporting?

Call it anything other than what it is.

As it has done every single day for 12 months straight, the U.S. news media puckers up and does exactly what it has been built and expected to do.
