Four Arabs have won the Nobel peace prize for science & medical achievements.

Steve Jobs was half Syrian.

Algebra, chemistry, the first alphabet, the modern hospital system and pulmonary circulation were all discovered or created in the Mideast.

Fleeing justice, Flávio Bolsonaro, the far-right presidential candidate defeated in Sunday’s election in Brazil, has left for the United States (and Trump's protection), a day after Brazilian police asked him to hand over his passports because he was being investigated in a money-laundering case. https://t.co/4ob6o8VmUY

Under President Trump, U.S. Military servicemen and women are being killed and injured, reportedly at higher numbers than we are being told and innocent children were killed at a school in Iran by U.S. bombs.

The price of oil is skyrocketing, tankers are being bombed, and today the President released half of our Strategic Oil Reserves to try to stop gas prices from going out of control.

And with all this, President Trump, who promised Americans “no more foreign wars, no more regime change” spent the day in Kentucky telling approximately 500 Fox News brainwashed boomers (most not even from the district) that Massie is bad because Massie didn’t vote for Trump’s COVID lockdowns and COVID bailouts and COVID vaccines in 2020 and because Massie (and me) voted to release the Epstein files which embarrassed a bunch of the President’s friends.

Maybe it has something to do with him not believing he’s going to heaven, which is extremely concerning by the way!

By the time Trump’s presidency and wars are over, we will be nearing $60 trillion dollars in debt and the only man in Washington that will have voted NO to all the insanity will be Thomas Massie.

NEW from @nytimes: The definitive story of how Trump took an almost inevitable path to a new US war in the Middle East: Netanyahu repeatedly urged him to attack Iran with Israel, and no aides voiced opposition. Netanyahu also undermined diplomacy. Regime change became the goal.

Israel has now killed more journalists than any other government since the Committee to Project Journalists began collecting records in 1992.

The Israel-Gaza war is the deadliest conflict on record for journalists, the CPJ found. https://t.co/v9Nfkwlupa

The world's two rogue states, Israel and the USA, have started a war not against Iran but against the whole world. We stand with Iranians, with Humanity, against the notion that Israel and the US can bomb anyone their fancy takes them to bomb. https://t.co/Xn8bo7q5Xc

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

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.

Δύο παραβατικά κράτη, με παράδοση στην υπονόμευση του Διεθνούς Δικαίου, ξεκίνησαν πόλεμο όχι εναντίον του Ιράν, αλλά της Ανθρωπότητας. Στεκόμαστε στο πλευρό των Ιρανών κόντρα στην ιδέα ότι το Ισραήλ και οι ΗΠΑ μπορούν να βομβαρδίζουν όποιον τους καπνίσει https://t.co/Xn8bo7q5Xc

Just over 50,000 people have now been killed in Gaza: 2.1% of the pre-war population of 2.3 million. That’s one person in every 46. The figures come from Gaza’s ministry of health, which is partly run by Hamas, but most international organisations accept them as accurate.

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

I have just asked the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and call a federal election on April 28.

We need to build the strongest economy in the G7. We need to deal with President Trump’s tariffs. Canadians deserve a choice about who should lead that effort for our country.

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

So many Canadians are doing everything right. They’ve worked hard, secured good jobs, and saved for the future. But often, it’s not enough to buy a home.

It shouldn’t be this way. So we’re making it easier to buy your first home — and removing the GST on homes up to $1 million.

در شب شانزدهم ماه رمضان، در سرزمین ویران غزه، میان آوار ها، دو میلیون آواره، گرسنه و بی‌سرپناه در زیر دیوارهای داغ‌دار، طیاره های امریکایی ارتش اسرائیل زمین و زمان را به قیامت تبدیل می‌کنند. در میان چهار صد تن از قربانیان، ده ها کودک، پیر و مریض قرار دارند. کم‌بود غذا، دارو، شفاخانه، انسانیت و کرامت نصیب این مردم بدبخت شد. آنان رمضان را با خون وداع کردند.

اما در آن‌شب عربستان سعودی، حوثی های یمن را با امریکا معامله کرد، مصر از برای قطع باج‌هایش سکوت کرد، ترکیه از برای ثبات شکننده سوریه آبش را نوشید، ایران مشغول نامه‌ی تهدید‌آمیز ترامپ شد و رهبران پنجاه و یک کشور دیگر اسلامی مست در مهمانی‌های افطاری پر زرق و برق بودند.

این‌ست واقعیت الم‌ناک جامعه مسلمان در جهان!

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks.

Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again.

NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

The consumer carbon tax is not working. It’s become too divisive — at a time when Canada needs to be united.

As my government’s first order of business, I have cancelled it.
