Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.
Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.
You think about how many cultural expressions would be invisible archeologically.
Prehistoric archeological cultures that appear to us as relatively artistically impoverished may have had a tradition of song or dance that was central to their identities that we can never see.
This is a ridiculous scandal. There is an acute shortage of doctors in the NHS yet thousands of qualified doctors are being turned away because there are no jobs for them.
The argument that the NHS is cash-strapped is a government choice.

It is absolutely wild that we’ve had a 10yr health plan that doesn’t significantly expand on doctor training, but implicitly expands on non-medical people playing doctor.
And the public have85 failed to pay attention.
Instead they quibble over paying doctors £4 more/hr

@RfnCostello@MiaDautaj The Kingdom of Serbia colonized Kosovo after 1912, settling Serbs to shift demographics, displacing Albanians. Throughout the 20th century, Albanians faced massacres, land confiscation, and repression, peaking under Milošević in the '80s-'90s with ethnic cleansing. In 1989, Serbia curbed Kosovo's autonomy, sparking protests, a parallel Albanian government, and KLA resistance. This led to the 1998-99 war, NATO strikes, and Kosovo’s 2008 independence, still disputed by Serbia.
‘This year there will be qualified doctors without a job.’
‘We’re seeing GPs driving Uber now.’
Caller Dave is dismayed by the continued expansion of physician associates when places for doctors are shrinking.
Say whatever you want about NATO, but bombing Serbia was the right thing to do to prevent/stop genocide in Kosovo and Bosnia.
Serbia was objectively the aggressor state when they slaughtered Bosnian and Kosovan civilians.
It’s really weird to see an American conservative sympathising with a communist regime which committed genocides and crimes in Bosnia, Croatia and Kosovo...
Amnesty International’s new landmark report concludes that Israeli authorities have committed – and still are committing - genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip.
Full report, out now.

Just now -- acclaimed British surgeon testifies to #UK Parliament, detailing how #IDF "quadcopters" would arrive at the scene of airstrikes in #Gaza & "pick-off" / "shoot" the injured, including children.
Emergency medicine don’t do waiting lists. We are, however, asked almost daily if we can work extra hours to plug rota gaps & keep patients safe. The job is stressful & exhausting. Any A&E doctor doing extra risks burnout. It is right and fair to expect fair pay for overtime.
