I am deeply saddened by the harrowing scenes of floods and landslides in Nepal and Tibet. My heartfelt condolences go to the families who have lost loved ones and to all those affected by this tragedy. My thoughts are also with the families and friends anxiously awaiting news of #NepalFloods #TibetTragedy #PrayersForNepal #NP #TW

George Orwell am 2. Februar 1945 in seiner Kolumne "As I please" in der "Tribune" zur geplanten Vertreibung der Deutschen: „Ein Flugblatt, das ich kürzlich vom Friends’ Peace Committee erhalten habe, stellt fest, dass, falls der gegenwärtige Plan, alle Polen aus den Gebieten, die von der UdSSR übernommen werden sollen, und als Ausgleich alle Deutschen aus den Teilen Deutschlands, die an Polen fallen sollen, umzusiedeln, durchgeführt wird, dies die Umsiedlung von nicht weniger als sieben Millionen Menschen mit sich bringen wird. Manche Schätzungen, glaube ich, liegen noch höher, aber nehmen wir an, es seien sieben Millionen. Das kommt der Entwurzelung und Umsiedlung der gesamten Bevölkerung Australiens oder der zusammengelegten Bevölkerungen Schottlands und Irlands gleich. Ich bin kein Experte für Transport oder Wohnungswesen und würde gerne von jemandem, der besser qualifiziert ist, eine grobe Schätzung hören: (a) wie viele Waggons und Lokomotiven, die wie lange laufen müssten, benötigt würden, um diese sieben Millionen Menschen plus ihr Vieh, ihre landwirtschaftlichen Maschinen und ihren Hausrat zu transportieren; oder alternativ (b) wie viele von ihnen an Hunger und Erschöpfung sterben werden, wenn man sie einfach ohne ihr Vieh usw. abtransportiert. Ich vermute, die Antwort auf (a) würde zeigen, dass dieses ungeheure Verbrechen tatsächlich nicht durchgeführt werden kann, obwohl es begonnen werden könnte – mit Verwirrung, Leid und der Aussaat unversöhnlicher Hassgefühle als Folge. In der Zwischenzeit sollte das britische Volk so konkret und detailliert wie möglich darüber aufgeklärt werden, auf welche Art von Politik seine Staatsmänner es festlegen.“ https://t.co/bIP8eK2QSw https://t.co/YKbgfMOxH0 #GeorgeOrwell #History #HumanRights

Ariana Grande reacted sharply to the use of her song We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love) in a film published by Team Trump on TikTok, stating that they should never use her music again and describing the film's message as false, which fits into the broader context of disputes between artists and politicians regarding the use of music in campaigns. (translated)

Ariana Grande odpowiada Trumpowi. "Nigdy więcej nie używaj mojej muzyki"

Allies used to worry whether America would. Now, friends and foes wonder whether America can.

Ορισθείσα Πρέσβης του @IsraelinGreece κ. Πνινάτ Γιανάι: «Το Ισραήλ και η Ινδία μοιράζονται πολλά περισσότερα από κοινά συμφέροντα - με την πάροδο των ετών, οι δύο χώρες έχουν οικοδομήσει μια ισχυρή, βαθιά και στρατηγική φιλία, βασισμένη στην εμπιστοσύνη, τις κοινές αξίες και την εκτεταμένη συνεργασία σε πολλούς τομείς. Ήταν ιδιαίτερα ενδιαφέρον να ανταλλάξουμε απόψεις, να ακούσω από την εμπειρία του Πρέσβη Ravi Shankar και να συζητήσουμε τις προκλήσεις και τις ευκαιρίες που μοιραζόμαστε. Η διπλωματία ξεκινά μεταξύ των χωρών, αλλά οι πραγματικές σχέσεις χτίζονται και μεταξύ των ανθρώπων. Ανυπομονώ για τη στενή συνεργασία εδώ στην Αθήνα, στο πνεύμα της ιδιαίτερης φιλίας μεταξύ του Ισραήλ και της Ινδίας». 🇮🇱🤝🇮🇳 Ambassador designate of Israel in Greece Ms. Pninat Yanay: “Israel and India share much more than common interests — over the years, our two countries have built a strong, deep and strategic friendship, based on trust, shared values and extensive cooperation across many fields. It was fascinating to exchange thoughts, learn from Ambassador Ravi Shankar’s experience, and discuss the challenges and opportunities we share. Diplomacy begins between countries, but true connections are also built between people. I look forward to close cooperation here in Athens, in the spirit of the special friendship between Israel and India”. 🇮🇱🤝🇮🇳 #Diplomacy #Israel #India

@POTUS is siding with brutal dictators like Kim Jong Un, he is threatening his friends in Europe, he invented stupid tariffs, he started a war that he cannot win, is lying to the American people … #Dictators #Tariffs #Lies #KR #US #EU

Som ni vet så granskade jag lobbygruppen Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast (JPB) nyligen. Expressens journalist Inas Hamdan valde dock att inte beskriva JPB som den lobbygrupp det faktiskt är, utan som en "kristen bönerörelse". I den konferens jag delat med mig av, går direktören Albert Veksler upp och ger direktiv till de närvarande. Sydafrikas delegater ska "fundera ut ett sätt som ni kan avbryta anmälan till Internationella domstolen" för det som Israel gör i Gaza. Alexander Christiansson (SD) utfrågas om vilken hans första motion i riksdagen var, varpå han svarar att det var att flytta Sveriges ambassad till Jerusalem. Nu har jag hittat ny information som visar att JBP själva hyllar den sionistiska lobbyismen. På hemsidan Israel Report beskriver JPB:s direktör Albert Veksler hur USA:s president Harry S Truman, tack vare att han hade en judisk vän som han gjorde affärer med, valde att godkänna Israel bara några minuter efter att staten bildades. Detta trots att USA:s regering inte ville det. 
 “Because of this friendship, Truman — against all odds and without the support of the State Department — was able to recognise Israel just eleven minutes after Ben Gurion declared the State of Israel." “This is what the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast is all about. We see miraculous things happen." Han beskriver hur nära kontakter med makthavare – ofta kristna sådana – varit en del av sionismens strategi ända från Theodor Herzls tid. "Albert Veksler describes how, in the late 19th century, Hechler [brittisk pastor] used his social connections to introduce Herzl to members of the German royal family and to the Sultan of Turkey, helping to elevate Herzl’s concept of a Jewish national homeland from the political fringe to a topic of discussion among world leaders.
– “This created the conditions for the Balfour Declaration and the British Mandate." I artikeln beskrivs också hur Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast lyckats bedriva framgångsrik lobbyverksamhet mot Nederländernas etablissemang. “The King acknowledged his great-grandmother, Queen Wilhelmina’s indifference to the fate of Dutch Jews during the Holocaust,” says Albert Veksler, who last April organised the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast in Stockholm at the Elite Hotel Marina Tower in Nacka, where around 400 delegates gathered." #Jerusalem #Lobbyism #Sionism
