In 2004, an Israeli court sentenced #MarwanBarghouti to five life sentences because he was responsible for 3 terrorist attacks in which 5 people were killed, including a shooting in a restaurant in Tel Aviv. At the invitation of #PRO MP @KatiPiri, Marwan's son, Arab Barghouti, will advocate for his father's release this afternoon in the House of Representatives. Arab downplays his father's terrorism. In a recent interview with 'the Internationalist,' Arab says, "terrorism is a colonial word used against those defending their land." He calls his father "a role model." Kati Piri has truly lost her way. The Israeli politician #BenGvir is rightly not allowed in the Netherlands because of his inflammatory language. But a Palestinian who calls his terrorist father a "role model" receives a warm welcome from the PRO faction in our parliament. (translated)
Lukáš Valášek has been doing great journalism for years. The decision of the Russian fifth column from SPD to ban him from entering the PS for 3 months is exactly according to the pattern of teachers from the Kremlin.

After years of senseless, colonial war, Vladimir Putin has achieved nothing. His resources are running out, he lacks recruits. For over 12 years he has been trying to conquer Donbas, and for over 4 - Kyiv. That's enough. 📍 New York, @UN Security Council on Ukraine. (translated)
‼️Radosław Sikorski at the UN Security Council. "Unable to break through the front, Russia deliberately strikes at Ukrainian civilians. At train passengers, street vendors, cyclists. At power plants, factories, shopping centers. At the port in Odessa, through which normally 50 million tons of grain are sent annually to countries in Africa and Asia," said Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Radosław Sikorski @sikorskiradek during his speech at the UN Security Council. "Russia is escalating because its leaders are afraid. After more than four years of senseless, colonial war, Vladimir Putin has achieved nothing. His resources are running out, he lacks recruits. He needs a pretext for another mobilization. This unnecessary war has cost the lives or health of one and a half million Russians. The threat to millions of Ukrainians and other Europeans is growing. At any moment, Putin may try to provoke a NATO member state and expand the area of the war. To the representatives of the Russian Federation, I want to say: for more than twelve years you have tried to conquer Donbas, and for more than four years - Kyiv. You have been stopped by the heroic Ukraine - a country with an economy ten times smaller than yours. But Poland's economy is now only half as small as yours. Europe's economy is ten times larger, and the NATO countries' economies are twenty-five times larger. You can kill significantly more people. But you are unable to win. You can end this imperial war of your choice at any moment. Don't expose Europe and the world to even greater danger. Stop destroying Russia's future," emphasized Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Radosław Sikorski, who addressed Sergey Lavrov, the head of Russian diplomacy, to tell his boss that enough is enough. @RMF24pl, @Radio_RMF24 (translated)

Why hide the facts? (translated)
