Netanyahu is a genocidal war criminal who belongs in the Hague, but Jews were not considered ethnic Poles based on the Polish government, and Polish Jewish last names were forced on families against their will. This kind of conspiratorial rhetoric about Jews faking their identity is gross.

Zelensky says the US government ordered the Starlink and Starshield speed limits, which SpaceX carried out technically. He confirms the restrictions haven't been lifted, with speed still capped at 161 km/h.
Do you believe that the NHS currently has the resources to provide single sex wards to every patient given, you know, the fiscal rules of the current government? (Not to mention, at no point was a genuine concern given for *banning trans people from mixed sex wards*)
The NHS knows that its new policy is going to harm patients, and it's doing it anyway. It is an active choice being made by this Labour government – don't let them pretend their hands are bound.
To reiterate: these huge benefit cuts are so disastrously unpopular that the current government had to conceal them from the public and lie about it to get elected, and then they cost the last PM his job. But these people are undeterred, they just reset the board for themselves then begin again.
To give an indication of the problem here's a chart of 12 government agencies around the world and numbers of applications / appeals / complaints etc... The dotted grey line is when ChatGPT was invented.

Outcry as Libyan rival government carries out public executions for first time since fall of Gaddafi
right. which is why i'm sort of baffled that people are that outright against the idea that the Canadian government + Canadian defense staff ran a wargame with the US as the opfor
The writer questioned why the New Zealand government was not demanding the release of the Epstein files and accused it of being complicit in a cover-up. They asked whether officials could contact Kash Patel through what they said was an FBI office in Wellington, and why the government was paying Trump’s tariffs. #EpsteinFiles #NewZealand #Transparency #NZ #US
the tl;dr is the kids are rightfully pissed that Macron has been cutting the education budget and current conditions for French students needs to improve tremendously, but the Macron government doesn't want to move on econ, so the harsh repression of protests was opted for instead
The author claimed that NGOs in Albania had mobilized to justify the violent overthrow of the democratically elected government and asked whether Europe was encouraging lawlessness. They also described the continent’s leaders in derogatory terms, accusing them of becoming violent and chaotic. #Albania #NGOs #Europe #AL
Huge benefit cuts are so intensely unpopular that this government hid their plan to make scything cuts until they’d won the election. They may have cost the last PM his job. But the main parties, the press and military all agree: fuck you, we’re slashing benefits to buy missiles.
