Most people will hopefully respond to this statement by Gottheimer by saying “I recognize that it is false to accuse Newsom of antisemitism for this.” But some will say, “If this is antisemitism, I don’t care about antisemitism.” Which is why this sort of rhetoric is so irresponsible.
Every single person in the entire chain of command that massacred the schoolgirls in Minab, and that is currently carpet bombing Iranian civilians, needs to be tried and jailed in The Hague. Sick, depraved monsters drunk on imperial hubris.
The great Antonio Lobo Antunes passed away. A psychiatrist profoundly impacted by the colonial war in Angola, Lobo wrote brilliant visceral books about violence and otherness, doubling down on the legacy of modernists like Celine.

I am so looking forward to reading this.

Devemos estar quase a sentir a bonança nos nossos bolsos, é só esperar mais um pouco.
Jesse singal literally wrote a whole article about an imaginary me and then asked people to be furious at his fantasy version of me.
I wish I had this job
"Today I will talk about a rupture in the world order...the beginning of a harsh reality where large power geopolitics is submitted to no limits, no constraints. On the other hand, I would like to tell you that other countries...are not powerless. They have the capacity to support, with Regrets."
This bronze coin from around the time of the name change bears the word "BENVENTOD", showing the old D ending of the ablative case that's lost in later Classical Latin – that is, 'from Beneventum'.

In ancient southern Italy, there was a settlement known as something like Malies in the local Oscan language, rendered in Greek as Malioenton.
This became Maleventum to the Romans, but that by accident sounded unlucky (like 'evil-wind'). So, it got renamed Beneventum – today, the city of Benevento.

For all that we can talk about the value of medieval literature for the present and the space it creates to think about issues at a bit of a remove, I’m finding it awfully hard to concentrate on 12th-century Neoplatonism with my country unsystematically destabilizing the entire globe.

Top of the Guardian vs top of the Times. I’d love to hear about the latter’s editorial decision-making process on this one.
Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez: “Today more than ever, it is essential to remember that one can be against a hateful regime as is the case with the Iranian regime…and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.”
I tucked my trowser-ends in my boots and went and had a good time,
I have never seen a politician more directly copy this speech in my life
Segundo as regras da fifa se um país tá em guerra, a copa deve ser feita no país anterior, que foi o Catar, que foi atacado, antes do Catar foi na Rússia que também tá em guerra, ou seja, a copa pode ser no Brasil
Europe has lost any credibility - assuming it ever had it - regarding its so-called commitment to the rule of law. Just as it stands on the brink of losing Greenland, its hypocritical approach to intl law will come to bite it in the end….

OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN "The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic. "Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.' "Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people. "Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different. "In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.

This is an unjust, illegal war. It violates our treaties and our laws. Presidential impunity must end.
