@SpeakerPelosi Indeed. I believe it to be a fundamental and universal value of all democracies that no one is above the law. A breech of that maxim by the Supreme Court in America would have global consequences.
@OxfordDiplomat Terrifying is right. And the forces that repudiate these terrible truths dismantles the qualities that make us human and intimidates the voices of humanity into silence and stasis. Thanks for showing this
If you listen to anything today let it be this:
UN Under- Secretary- Generalfors Humanitarian Affairs, Martin Griffiths, and seasoned British Diplomat stated:
โ68% of the people killed in Gaza are killed are women and children. They stopped counting the number of children killed after 4,500 had been counted. Nobody knows what the future will is. Hospitals have become a place of war, not of curing. No, I donโt think Iโve seen anything like this before.โ
@MiddleEastEye
@HollyCairnsTD Grotesque injustice and war crimes without consequence for the perpetrators makes complicit those who fail to act in defence of the victims by the legal means available and the moral imperative of our humanity to intervene. Fuzzmumble words are no substitute for action.
@PoultryBulletin@the_dtic@iloverainbow_sa What an incredible achievement. 1,000 jobs could mean stability for as many as 10,000 people in the families of the newly employed. Brilliant.
@WafaMustafa9 I am certain that there are few experiences in life more painful than the eternal, aching presence of absence. As a dad, all I can say is I know that you are the beloved of your dad and he of you. This, in the end, will triumph. Love from my family always.
@DenesTorteli "We must not repeat the mistakes of our enemies." No ambiguity or obfuscation here. The message is clear as a bell and will ring in victory for Ukraine. Scotosis is the Russian disease.
Ukrainian deputy defence minister Hanna Maliar: "We should not repeat the mistakes of our enemies. They got involved in this losing war because they underestimated us and did not understand our mentality.
We have to fight them taking into account:
- that they have an advantage in terms of numbers of people, weapons and military equipment.
- they always lie. They lie to everyone and even to each other. Everything is built on lies, even their historical identity.
- they have a deep trauma of losing dominance in the post-Soviet space. Therefore, their key internal need, which underlies all conflicts, is the desire to dominate.
- This state has no red lines in its behavior at all.
- despite the outwardly totalitarian nature of the regime, the system is a mess inside, so anything can 'break out' anywhere.
Conclusion: no sentiments, hopes, or illusions. We are becoming even stronger and destroying the enemy even more powerfully." https://t.co/ug5qChcAJh
@Mariana_Betsa Whoever is giving this amazing granny a phone out of love and respect, kindness, and humanity is giving it to all of us, each and every one. Let us return, in whatever way we can, a gift we have to offer. My heart weeps. Thank God it has not forgotten how.
@mrjamesob These values I suspect, all emanate from scotosis, a common condition with these people : self-righteous indignation, the right to fuzzmumble speech in response to journalists or indeed anyone, the exclusive right to rights.
@OlenaHalushka Ar dheis Dรฉ go raibh a anam and may his memory and living spirit be a blessing. Every Ukrainian woman, child, and man is a beacon of hope for freedom, a bulwark against oppression.
The EBU'S decision to refuse President Zelensky the opportunity to speak at the Eurovision song contest on the grounds that it would politicise an event that by dint of its being held in Liverpool is already politicised is in itself a political decision by the EBU. Utter rubbish.
@OnlinePalEng The open-air prison of Gaza is covered by a dome of repression. It is not simplistically sustained by the brutality of military force and oppression,it feeds off our collective Western neglect. In that, we are deeply culpable. Our shame must stir us to action.
