After 8 years working at the International Committee of the Red Cross, one thing I'm certain of is that the world is a better place with the @ICRC in it. A @nytimes op-ed that I drafted along with @ICRCPresident:

The @ICRC's neutrality allows us to help people suffering in conflict.

Not everyone needs to be neutral, but nations need to support the space for humanitarian neutrality.

Because when the world takes sides, we side with humanity.

@IlyaGridneff Hey, how about coming up with your own story ideas instead of blatantly ripping off others'? https://t.co/yFOwABQISS

[Jason Straziuso @jstraziusoICRC]

@motjuste_terry @MattGertz No.

@ralphDrussoAP They just can’t stomach it. Moooooo.

@markcarrato @InvestinKEA @PowerAfricaUS @FortescueFuture Looks like they’re Oregon fans.

@andrewselsky Get that battery percentage looked at there boss. (Also: had dinner with Ed Harris and Todd Pitman last night)

@jennyrogersDC No where did the letter writer or columnist suggest the girlfriend could — after a whole year — learn more words in French than hello.

This is an outstanding, chilling version of one of U2’s best songs. A global choir infused with emotion. Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking for captures the desperation of families searching for a missing family member. #DayOfTheDisappeared https://t.co/3jTj0ema04

@JakeKurtzer If you’re going to be quoting Seinfeld up here at least post a clip. I don’t even remember that episode.

@IlyaGridneff Sensing deep conflict of interest vibes here.

@ron_fournier Editors congratulate reporters for 60 second “beats” over the competition, promoting a rushed process that risks bad info, weak writing. READERS DONT CARE WHO IS FIRST.

[Jason Straziuso @jstraziusoICRC]

I searched Twitter for “beautiful song” and this was the top hit. Not bad.

This is beautiful to watch.

The perfect pronunciation of Igbo words gives joy to listen to. #Igboamaka

@AlexThomp As the replies to this tweet show, readers don't care which journalist had the story first. A 10-minute scoop is meaningless in the real world.

[Jason Straziuso @jstraziusoICRC]

@arieljrubin @AlexaKilroy Same message I used to send you every month or so.

@jeromestarkey I love international development Twitter poetry

@devi_lockwood @rachsyme @jesmimi Ordered it based on your red.

@Mike_Hixenbaugh The 2 papers are AP members/subscribers. The AP always credits its members; it’s good business.
