Q: Have you told Elon Musk to stop messing around with Ukraine's Starlink connection?

TRUMP: I have not spoken to him. I might have to, but I have not. I've heard it was fixed, but if it's not, I'll speak to him

Point de vue | Sur la guerre à #Gaza, les commentaires sont trop souvent polarisés et les points de vue tranchés. Cet article du New Yorker sur la lente évolution de l'un des plus célèbres philosophes juifs américains – Michael Walzer – est passionnant.

Face à la guerre à Gaza, Walzer a d’abord estimé que la cause israélienne était juste (répondre à l’attaque du 7 octobre), tout en critiquant certaines conduites (le siège, les bombes de 2000 kg). Mais au fil des mois et des carnages répétés, il en est arrivé à une conclusion qui ébranle le fondement même de sa propre théorie : le niveau de carnage peut être tel qu’il rend la guerre injuste dans son ensemble, même si la cause initiale était juste.

En d’autres termes : une guerre peut commencer juste, mais si la manière de la conduire atteint un seuil de destruction extrême et prolongée, la justice de la cause disparaît. C’est la grande révision intellectuelle d’un philosophe de 90 ans face à Gaza – admettre que sa propre théorie, élaborée sur cinquante ans, avait besoin d’être affinée.

@vonderleyen @piyushmittal Right on the doorstep of the EU and NATO, people are dying as a result of Russian terror attacks.
And the EU is "deeply alarmed."

@K_Moessbauer Ich halte mich politisch nicht an solchen Blendern und Dummschwätzern fest.
Dann lieber als politisches Vorbild
Mark Carney.

[Scott Robertson @sarobertson_]

Mark Carney on Elon Musk throttling Starlink: "I search for the right adjective to describe whoever took this decision or group of people took this decision against a country that is literally fighting for the lives of the citizens against naked aggression."

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

🇨🇦 Mark Carney says he’s "concerned" about Starlink slowdown in Ukraine, which led to human casualties and reduced Ukraine’s ability to defend itself. He says Canada can’t rely on a single provider that could flip like that and put Canadians at risk, so he’s going to diversify.

Seventy years ago, Europe and the entire world faced a very important and, in many ways, decisive crossroads, when the people of Hungary rose up for freedom and against the Soviet system. The courage and love of freedom shown by Hungarians proved remarkably strong, and they still amaze all of us in Europe.

Unfortunately, the world did not make the strong decisions needed to help them at that time. This led to further decades of totalitarian rule across much of Europe, which ended only with the revolutions of the 1980s.

The year 1956 could have changed a great deal. This lesson now gives us grounds to say with absolute certainty: when people show courage and love of freedom, it is worth supporting. It deserves support everywhere in the world, so that freedom grows.

I thank everyone who remembers history, honors people's courage and love of freedom, and does not shy away from decisions when decisions are needed. We honor the heroes of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956!

The situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory is out of control.

In Gaza, essential aid is still being severely restricted by Israel.

In the occupied West Bank, Palestinians continue to suffer daily attacks by Israeli settlers and journalists & diplomats are being attacked.

There must be a credible political path towards lasting peace, ending the occupation and realizing a two-State solution, with Israel & Palestine living side by side in peace & security.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

When President Trump says we need to find a compromise – we live with this. A ceasefire and sitting down at the negotiating table – it is a huge compromise.

Nobody can step into the shoes of all these people whose children were tortured. And you can't force people to forgive. How can you force them when their child was tortured? How do you forgive? It's impossible. I desperately want justice. I just really want. I know so many people had their hearts ripped out, and there won't be a new heart.

That's why we say a ceasefire is the only step, because people’s hatred isn't going anywhere. It takes time and justice. And that's why it's a huge compromise. I've tried many times to tell the President of the United States: understand us. This is a huge compromise just to hold the lines where we are. Trump can bring Putin to the negotiating table very easily. The way President Trump talks about me, he needs to adopt that kind of rhetoric about Putin.

@zeitonline Sehr gut.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Bucha. It was a genocide, recognized by everyone. They buried hundreds of people. They tortured people. We found the grave. There were, I believe, around 500 people. When we liberated those towns near Kyiv, there emerged this, you know, this kind of hatred for the Russians, right at that moment. Not even at the moment when they started the full-scale war. Back then nobody understood what it really was yet. People understood what this war was and what Putin did personally when we found those mass graves of tortured adults, children. I mean they didn't just kill them, they tortured and killed them.

When we liberated Bucha, I said, bring every journalist here. Don't touch anything, just bring the journalists. The whole world simply has to see this. Imagine finding a mass grave in the U.S. or in Britain, God forbid, with 500 tortured people, adults, kids, dogs, animals shot dead. I mean, they held hunting sprees there from military vehicles. People were running, they were shooting, just hunting, playing games. They literally just played with people, like slavery. So how, after this, can you listen to Putin? And how, after this, can you forgive?

@bundeskanzler @MickeySpajic Die EU muss wachsen sagen Sie.
Gleichzeitig wollen Sie das kommende Budget so quasi einfrieren.
Für wie dumm halten Sie Ihre Bürger.
Sollen die Neu Abkömmlinge das bezahlen indem Sie deren Bürger finanziell schröpfen?

Wäre es nicht so ernst, man könnte sich darüber totlachen, wie das gesamte BSW inklusive seiner Chefin @SWagenknecht Forderungen an den „kompromisslosen“ Selenskyj formuliert, die dieser bereits akzeptiert hat und nur Putin ablehnt.
Die ganze Bande lebt in ihrer eigenen Realität.
