I like your thinking, from now on i identify as Gen Z, i’ve had enough far-right bullshit.

It’s not personal, there just aren’t that many ways to commit genocide with this ceasefire going on.

Israel comits genocide.

As Russias neigbours neighbours neighbour I can confirm

It’s less weird if you understand distraction can be used to steer peoples attention away from real problems.

Russia is already at war with us and has considered us the enemy for a while now.

A relief to learn about this, really great.

Europe needs to rearm itself and should not buy from non-allied states and neither from authocratic governments. We should not only stop buying weapons from China, but also US, Israel and Turkey (at least as long as Erdogan is in power). We need to put our money in strengthening our own weapon industry and that of countries we either pledged protection to or allied ourselves to. In this light I’m really happy we are increasing purchases from Taiwan and Ukraine. Hopefully we will also continue doing business with South-Korea and Japan because Taiwain is hopelessly lost without the help of those two countries.

It’s not, it’s in the European broadcasting union. Armenia and Algeria are also member. Australia (kangaroo) also participates in the Songfestival.

For me personally there being a pro-israeli contestant isn’t enough to boycott or ban them from participating. I can see how for some people the large israeli sponsors might be enough to boycott or ban them. But for me what really does it is the political effort to gather votes for the israeli candidate - they’ve put out ads to get people to vote for israel, especially targeting people who normally wouldn’t watch it. There is plenty of social media posts of people saying they voted for israel 20 times and not having seen a single thing except maybe a performance on youtube. Manipulating the vote is a gross violation of the rules and Israel should be punished for that.

I have an old one with a battery, which is not what you’re asking for but it has a feauture i have really come to like: you have to put the alarm on everytime. Having it go off every day automatically is a huge convienienxe that radio alarms, wake-up lights and smartphones have; but setting the alarm to wake up at a specific time next day is some kind of magic agreement with the universe. I’m not necessarily a believer in manifesting your destiny, but setting an intention like this really helps me out in the morning. Just wanting to put that out there.

I totally agree Russia adds a lot of fuel to this fire, but it’s not like they started it or are the only one tending it. Far-right everywhere uses the narrative of ‘your country is changing and it’s all because of immigrants’, but don’t forget they are exploiting an underlying fear that was already there.

if IDF harms them it will more likely be the isreal equivalent of falling from a window. More likely they will arrest them at gunshot and sink the ship. In that case the west doesn’t need video evidence as it has eyewitness testimonies. Let’s hope they are not betting on a single horse here.

I think israel will be more careful with non-palestinians. Not saying they will let them stop the genocide, but can’t imagine Israel doing the people on the flotilla like they did the ambulance workers. But I have been wrong before, so i’m concerned for their safety too.

“To the antisemitic Greta and her fellow Hamas propaganda spokespeople, I say clearly: You should turn back—because you will not reach Gaza,” Katz said, referring to Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, one of the 12 people on board. “Israel will act against any attempt to break the blockade or assist terrorist organizations—at sea, in the air, and on land.”

I really don’t like the post-truth world :(.

Putin cannot keep the Russian economy going without spending a lot of money on weapons, he has no way back.
