National Endowment for Democracy funds Slovene Socialist who established diplomatic ties with a nonexistent State of Palestine in 2024, and extreme on youth trans issues, leads US election team to Bosnia Herzegovina. The country suffers from deep tensions between Muslims and Christians. Wrong person. Americans pay. Absurd.
Please @SecRubio rebuke NED's parallel leftwing foreign policy with $300 million of taxpayer money.

NED is at it again. National Endowment for Democracy was nearly defunded by @SenEricSchmitt and @RepEliCrane for funding anti-US foreign NGOs. Tax-funded NED supports the Sarajevo-based Balkan Investigative Research Network, which "accuses" @Heritage of shifting European politics to the right with a terrible smear of @POTUS accusing him of a "plan to revive the white, Christian, supremacist world order, supported by the fossil fuel industry." Taxpayer money funding this!

Excellent exchange of opinions with @USEmbassySJJ Chargé d'Affaires Ginkel, speaking on 🇧🇦-🇺🇸relations and a number of ongoing high-priority topics for BiH. Urgent progress on the Southern Interconnection remains imperative, as does ensuring further US investments in #BiH.
Sretan Dan pobjede i domovinske zahvalnosti, Dan hrvatskih branitelja i 30. obljetnica VRO #Oluja! Iznova podsjećeni na junačku hrabrost i žrtvu hrvatskih branitelja za ostvarenje sna slobodne Domovine 🇭🇷, neka nas zauvijek štiti i prati neraskidivo zajedništvo našega naroda.
According to award winning journalist Esad Hecimovic, Bosnia ("BiH") only achieved independence because Alija knew that 1992 independence referendum wouldn't pass w/o Croat support, so he promised Croats establishment of ethnic regions in independent BiH. https://t.co/lVR3rte8Ok
""Do kada će žene u Bosni i Hercegovini doživljavati ovakve stvari od strane sujetnih muškaraca? Nikada više kao društvo nismo govorili o pravima žena i položajima žena u politici, a žene nam dobivaju ovakav vid diskriminacije, uznemiravanja i ponižavanja jer se usude da govore"
U Ljubuškom u četvrtak, 7. prosinca u Parku hrvatskih banova u Ljubuškom svečanost otkrivanja spomenika Petru Hercegu Tomiću - heroju Pearl Harbora🥰🥰🥰
Bravo Ljubuški!

The mayor of Sarajevo refuses to condemn publicly the atrocities of October 7th. She supports a terror organisation that has committed crimes against humanity.
She continues to instigate and fuel hatred and antisemitism. History will not forgive this. #NeverAgainIsNow
Why won’t Egypt and Jordan take refugees from Gaza?
Arabs know their history better than the anti-Israel protesters marching in universities.
Those students know nothing about what Palestinian migrants did in Kuwait, Jordan or Lebanon
Share this & some of them might find out!
The extent of destruction in Gaza is horrifying 👇
Sorry for the typo, this is Homs, Syria 🇸🇾, bombed by the Assad regime.
Nobody cared. No rage, no ceasefire demand. Just a few hundred thousand civilians killed. Carry on.

18.11. - Dan kada je 1991. slomljena herojska obrana grada Vukovara i kada je u Škabrnji počinjen stravičan zločin nad stanovništvom.
“I reći ću vam samo još jednu stvar. Zapamtite Vukovar.”

How many Arabs lived in “Palestine” before the establishment of the State of Israel 🇮🇱?
A thread 🧵 with historical sources:
🔸In 1785, Constantine Francois Volney describes the "ruined" and "desolate" state of the country: "We with difficulty recognized Jerusalem... The population is supposed to amount to twelve to fourteen thousands..."
🔸In 1843, Alexander Keith wrote that "in this [Volney's] day the land had not fully reached its last prophetic degree of desolation and depopulation."
🔸In 1816, J.S. Buckingham had described Jaffa as "a poor village", and Ramleh as a place "where, as throughout the greater portion of Palestine, the ruined portion seemed more extensive than that which was inhabited."
🔸In 1835, Alphonse de Lamartine gave this description: "Outside gates of Jerusalem, we saw indeed no living object, heard no living sound. We found the same void, the same silence as we should have found in the enrombed gates of Pompeii and Herculaneum... a complete, eternal silence resigns in the town, in the highways, in the country... The tomb of a whole people."
🔸In 1857, the British consul in Palestine, James Finn, reported back to England: "The country is in a considerable degree empty of inhabitants and therefore its greatest need is that of a body of population."
🔸In 1867, Mark Twain wrote in The Innocents Abroad: "Stirring senses... occur in this valley no more. There is not a solitary village throughout its whole extent – not for thirty miles in either direction." He goes on to describe Galilee, Judea, and around Jerusalem as deserts devoid of population. And for the country as a whole: "Palestine sits in sackcloth and ashes. Over it broods the spell of a curse that has withered its fields and fettered its energies... Palestine is desolate and unlovely... It is hopeless, dreary, heartbroken land."
🔸In 1881 (the year designated by Arafat as the beginning of the Zionist "invasion" and "displacement" of the local population), English cartographer Arthur Penrhyn Stanley wrote: "In Judea it is hardly an exaggeration to say that for miles and miles there was no appearance of life or habitation."
🔸By the third quarter of the 19th century, the total population of the entire country, Arabs and Jews, was only 400,000. Less than 3% of today's figure.
November 18, 1991 Croatian city of Vukovar fell to Yugoslav-Serbian forces. Following days hundreds of Croatian war peosoners, wounded, medical staff and other civillians were murdered. Hundreds are still unaccounted for, their families grieving and seeking.
