  4. "#Anglican #missionary Rev. #WBLewis describing the desperate situation of #Jews living in #Jerusalem under #Ottoman #Turkish rule in 1824.

    #Lewis wrote his letter from #Aintoura, a village in present-day #Lebanon, on February 23, 1824. His account is one of the most detailed non-#Jewish eyewitness reports of what life was really like for Jews in the #HolyLand at that time.

    He describes horrifying #extortion, #beatings, wrongful #imprisonment, #forcedlabor, and stolen property — all suffered by a community with no #European diplomatic protection in Jerusalem. The letter also covers the long Jewish struggle to reclaim the ruined #Hurva #Synagogue, which had been destroyed by #Arab creditors a century earlier.

    This document is historically valuable precisely because Lewis was a non-Jewish outsider with nothing to gain by exaggerating. His testimony confirms what Jewish sources also describe about life under Ottoman rule in Jerusalem."

  19. The world can no longer afford two things:
    🔸the costs of economic inequality;
    🔸and the rich.

    Between 2020 and 2022, the world’s most affluent 1% of people captured nearly twice as much of the new global wealth created as did the other 99% of individuals put together
    And in 2019 they emitted as much #carbon #dioxide as the poorest two-thirds of humanity.
    In the decade to 2022, the world’s billionaires more than doubled their wealth, to almost US$12 trillion.

    The evidence gathered by social epidemiologists, including us, shows that large differences in income are a powerful #social #stressor that is increasingly rendering societies dysfunctional.
    For example, bigger gaps between rich and poor are accompanied by higher rates of #homicide and #imprisonment.
    They also correspond to more #infant #mortality, #obesity, #drug #abuse and @COVID-19 #deaths, as well as higher rates of teenage pregnancy and lower levels of child well-being, social mobility and public trust
    The #homicide rate in the United States
    — the most unequal Western democracy
    — is more than 11 times that in Norway (see go.nature.com/49fuujr).
    #Imprisonment rates are ten times as high, and infant mortality and obesity rates twice as high.

    These problems don’t just hit the poorest individuals, although the poorest are most badly affected.
    Even #affluent people would enjoy a better quality of life if they lived in a country with a more equal distribution of wealth, similar to a Scandinavian nation.
    They might see improvements in their mental health and have a reduced chance of becoming victims of violence; their children might do better at school and be less likely to take dangerous drugs.

    The costs of inequality are also excruciatingly high for #governments.
    For example, the Equality Trust, a charity based in London (of which we are patrons and co-founders), estimated that the United Kingdom alone could save more than £100 billion ($126 billion) per year if it reduced its inequalities to the average of those in the five countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) that have the smallest income differentials
    — Denmark, Finland, Belgium, Norway and the Netherlands5.
    And that is considering just four areas: greater number of years lived in full health, better mental health, reduced homicide rates and lower imprisonment rates.
    Many commentators have drawn attention to the environmental need to limit economic growth and instead prioritize sustainability and well-being.
    Here we argue that tackling inequality is the foremost task of that transformation.
    Greater @equality will reduce unhealthy and excess consumption, and will increase the #solidarity and #cohesion that are needed to make societies more adaptable in the face of climate and other emergencies.

  20. The penalties for intentionally harming #animals are just too light. It's usually #probation, a small fine, and period of <5 years where the #offender isn't allowed to own animals. It's woefully inadequate, IMO. Intentionally abusing an #animal should come with a mandatory 3-year #imprisonment for a first #offense. If the animal dies as a result, the minimum should be 5-years. Those terms should go up for repeat offenders.

  21. Wet'suwet'en Testify on #PoliceBrutality, #Imprisonment, at Inter-American Commission on #HumanRights

    By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, July 10, 2023

    "Wet’suwet’en described their struggle to defend their land, waters, and rights to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (#IACHR) in a virtual hearing. Joined by #AmnestyInternational, representatives from the Nation described the ongoing unjust #criminalization and #harassment of #LandDefenders opposing the construction of the #CoastalGasLink (#CGL) #pipeline through Wet’suwet’en territory. The Canadian government responded to the testimony of the Wet’suwet’en delegation. The testimony described the attacks on the Nation’s rights, including the right to free, prior and informed consent to resource-extraction projects affecting their territory, as upheld in the UN’s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples."

  22. CW: Kremlin critic Ilya Yashin sentenced to 8.5 ys

    One of #Russia's most prominent #opposition politicians has been sentenced to eight and a half years #imprisonment. Ilya #Yashin was found guilty of spreading what the authorities claim is false information about the war in Ukraine. He had used his YouTube channel to discuss #evidence of #atrocities committed by #Russian #troops in #Bucha, #Ukraine. In his court statement he said Vladimir #Putin was responsible for the #slaughter in Ukraine.
