  1. Life in Gaza has become nearly impossible. After the occupation forces received the last bodies of their soldiers, and under the pretext of moving to the second phase and pressuring the resistance to surrender its weapons, the occupation continues its violations of the supposed truce, killing and wounding several people daily. We live in constant fear and terror. Please help us obtain plane tickets and reach safety so we can live in peace. You are our only hope. 💔🙏gofund.me/69b0e26cb

  4. L'administration Trump franchit une ligne rouge : arrêter des journalistes qui couvraient une manifestation.

    Don Lemon et Georgia Fort poursuivis pour avoir filmé dans une église. Le prétexte juridique ? Une loi de 1994 sur les cliniques d'avortement. Le message est limpide : transformer la justice en outil de répression médiatique.

  7. Israeli occupation forces are escalating settler-colonial violence in illegally annexed East Jerusalem: 14 Palestinian homes in al-Bustan, Silwan face demolition, displacing 120 residents including children under the pretext of lacking building permits that Israel systematically denies Palestinians, while expropriating land for "parks" to complete cultural erasure.

    The occupation forces Palestinians to demolish their own homes in Wadi Qadum and Jabal Mukaber, and plans mass expulsion of 40 families in Sheikh Jarrah's Umm Haron community to build 316 illegal settler units on stolen land, severing northern Palestinian Jerusalem from the city center.

    This is demographic engineering through systematic home demolitions, forced displacement of indigenous Palestinians, and illegal settlement expansion around Al-Aqsa Mosque - war crimes under the Fourth Geneva Convention over which the ICC has jurisdiction.

    From the report:

    [...] These measures of uprooting hundreds of Palestinians on one hand and building large settlements on the other threaten to transform Sheikh Jarrah from a Palestinian neighborhood that is part of the Palestinian space surrounding the Old City into an Israeli settlement that severs the center of Palestinian Jerusalem from its northern sections, leaving beside it only a few small and threatened Palestinian enclaves. Over the years, Sheikh Jarrah has become a symbol and example of the struggle over the character and identity of all of Jerusalem. Now we must return and fight for it again," they emphasized.

    "As for the next presidential election, Trump has made his intentions clear: He is not planning to leave his throne. He may look for a pretext to cancel the vote. (When President Volodymyr Zelensky told him that Ukraine can’t have an election during the war, Trump visibly lit up: 'So you mean if we happen to be in a war with somebody, no more elections? Oh, that’s good.') He may find a way to invalidate the vote after the election — he has been laying the groundwork for such a move since his first term. Even if he doesn’t, it is foolish to think that this iteration of our national nightmare will end in three years.

    One term for regimes that maintain the trappings of democracy, such as legislatures, courts and elections, but use them primarily as decoration is 'electoral authoritarianism.' This is what we are becoming.

    (. . .)

    We can’t count on change being brought about by elections when we can’t count on elections. We can’t count on the freedoms and resources we enjoy today to still be available to us tomorrow."

  9. #Emails from July 2011 show that Jeffrey Epstein and an associate named Greg Brown discussed plans to extort Libyan officials and seize state assets under the pretext of helping rebuild the country, with involvement from former #MI6 and #Mossad.

    The correspondence took place during #Libya’s civil war, weeks before Muammar #Gaddafi was removed from power, indicating the plans were devised while the regime was still in control.

  10. A #RPC, ligada no PR à #GazetadoPovo, exibiria hoje uma reportagem sobre as #internaçõescompulsórias de #saúdemental em #Curitiba: pessoas em situação de vulnerabilidade sendo internadas contra a vontade pelo prefeito de Curitiba, sob o pretexto de "limpar as ruas".

    O tom, no anúncio, era de que as internações compulsórias são boas porque muitas pessoas estavam tão degradadas que não haveria outra opção.

    O tom é inteiramente de #exclusão e #medicalização, dois velhos temas mais do que comprovadamente ineficazes e criticados em saúde mental.

    O jornal rodou, rodou e, ao fim, o âncora anunciou que a reportagem não viria ao ar hoje, pois seria "reedit..., quer dizer, exibida, apenas amanhã" (sic.)

  14. Forget the saintly nonviolent tactics. They will get you killed. Stop brainwashing yourselves into believing that physical self-defense creates a pretext for worsening retaliations. That is what we call internalized victim-blaming. #2A #SelfDefense #ICE #ICEOut #FuckICE #ClassWar #Revolution2026

  15. Il y a une tendance dans les bib et archives, que je n'avais pas rencontrée jusqu'ici, à se dispenser de publier des politiques de développement des collections sous prétexte que "on ne fait que suivre la loi, notre mission nous est donnée par notre tutelle".

    D'abord c'est faux - il y a plein de décisions à prendre, même si on a un mandat. Ensuite c'est vraiment se cacher derrière une pseudo-neutralité. C'est paresseux et c'est servile.

    Pam Bondi just sent a letter to #Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

    Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

  22. On the off-chance that you're a subscriber to @TheEconomist (as I am), you might be interested in listening to their latest Babbage podcast, hosted by Alok Jha, a journalist friend of mine since #Rosetta days 🚀🛰️☄️

    The pretext for our conversation was my book, "111 Places in Space That You Must Not Miss", but if I recall the pre-Christmas recording well, we touched on many wider space-related topics too ✨🪐🌔🧑‍🚀
