El actor judío Wallace Shawn: "Los israelíes son peores que los nazis, al menos los nazis tuvieron la decencia de intentar ocultar lo que estaban haciendo. Los israelíes alardean de ello. Es demoníacamente malvado"
during the Rwandan genocide did the world need to wait for a consensus from all Jewish people that a genocide was occuring??? since when did ethnicity and religion determine international law
When Donald Trump celebrates war profiteering, peddles conspiracy theories, threatens Iranians with annihilation, calls for a coup and slanders the ICC, what does our Prime Minister do? He takes a selfie with him. Seriously cringeworthy stuff.
At this point I am convinced that Labor’s entire media team, social & otherwise, are trying to destroy the party from within. In no universe could anyone with any awareness of the mood of the electorate think selfies with the world most famous pedophile &war criminal is positive
Just imagine for a moment if the Iranian president stood up at the UN, imagine if Ahmadinejad had come to the UNGA, and said: “Do I annihilate the Jewish state, and do it quickly? Do I drive Israel into hell?”
Imagine the Western and global and media response and outcry.
@Matt_Camenzuli You can dislike Albo enormously without being required to applaud every piece of dogshit launched in his general direction.
Latika's question advanced absolutely nothing, beyond perhaps our understanding of the lower limits of political journalism.
Club died when we sacked Ange
All we needed that summer was proper backing and a revamp of the medical team
Instead we told the squad winning doesn’t matter. Just an average league position does
Took all potential momentum we had as a club and went full throttle backwards
- reads from teleprompter
- immediately starts with October 7th
- still won’t call it a genocide
- says he doesn’t know enough about what’s happening
- makes no apology to Macklemore or addresses dropping him from the tour
- doesn’t mention where his donation will be going to
- doesn’t encourage anyone to donate
- won’t say Israel is the reason Gaza is suffering
- won’t say free Palestine
- only cries when he sees people showed up to the concert because that’s what he cares more about.
Fuck him.
The issues are 1) the 70 yr occupation 2) the apartheid used to enforce it 3) the settlements, all illegal under int’l law 4) the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank & Gaza 5) the war crimes that amount to a genocide. Not anti-semitism but the truth about what’s now a pariah state
AOC: When you see what Robert Kraft did to line up all the stadiums to censor speech in that one specific way, it's become clear it's not just about one music artist or two music artists, but this is about how just a handful of stadium owners and the elite can prevent an entire massive issue, in this case, the genocide in gaza—
Why is anyone surprised about Ed Sheeran? Gen Z music is all about either cosplaying music that's decades old or supermarket music with lyrics.
The fact a generation thinks it's some sort of genius rather than the unimaginative, toe the line corporate dirge that it is, tells you everything you need to know.
In the 70's and 80's there was Rock against racism, bands refused to play in anti apartheid South Africa Sun City, etc etc. Real bands made up of men and women who's music inherently had a message beyond " I love you, you're great, innit". The reason why Sheeran can have his huge success today is because the contract between artist and promoter/label is "be as bland as you can be, cause no trouble, you'll be rich ". Same in almost every media industry now.
So why would a bland, smiley moron with bland supermarket music for the musically semi literate have an opinion on anything? Seriously?
The music industry couldn't make money with bands who refused to toe the line 40 years ago, they were too unpredictable, too many songs banned on radio, too close to the truth, so they gave out deals based on compliance, mass market averageness and understanding of the rules, "say nothing, just play your fucking guitar".
That so many are looking at an industry talking head for some sort of political guidance is about as tragic as it fucking gets.
Vote! Join a party! March! Protest!
Ed Sheeran nor any other musician that's raking it in isn't coming to give you a voice.
En EEUU, un racista contrató a unos trabajadores latinos para que le cercaran su patio con costosas vallas de madera... pero cuando terminaron el trabajo, llamó a ICE para que les deportaran y ahorrarse pagarles.
Sin embargo, no salió como el racista esperaba, los trabajadores eran legales, volvieron a su casa y le arrancaron valla por valla de madera en su cara, deshaciendo el trabajo. Puro karma.
It’s not true Joe. It’s a fable to make you feel good. Read a fricking book. Read the 9/11 commission report. Read what the FBI agents who investigated 9/11 said. Read what OBL said. Read what actual experts say about radicalization. You’ve left the GOP so now try reading a book.
