While on trail, Taghi ordered and succeeded in the murder of:
This level of violence aimed at innocents was unheard of in the Netherlands. It’s what drug trafficking brings.
And Obama murdered hundreds of civilians with drones, yet we’re still able to acknowledge the freedoms that American people have.
Peter Santinello is a guy on YouTube who does very genuine interviews with people from all walks of life. He has a short series in Saudi Arabia where he talks with all kinds of people, including women. They talk about how women driving became a thing and you can see how modern some cities are. Women are not even wearing a headscarf everywhere.
Definitely recommended to watch if you want to get a different view on the country than the perspective you get from most western media.
I think the basic reasoning is some form of:
“If you support Palestina, you are against Israel. And you can’t be against Israel, because then you are an anti-semite and that means you support Hitler.”
It’s mainly prevelant in western countries that historically support Israel. I do think a big part of that is some historical shame/feeling the Jewish people are owed something, given the genocide they had to endure in WW2. And of course a touch of geopolitics. And right wing politicians using Israel as a way to position themselves (I guess they hate Muslims more than Jews?).
Really amazing how all nuance is lost when you discuss Israel online.
If you mean the person you’re responding to is downvoted: right now the comment has one downvote and two upvotes. Hardly any activity, let alone enough to argue for any voting conspiracies.
This is not how it will go down. PVV might briefly hurt when its government fails, but then they’ll start spewing their far right populist shit again and people will eat it up and vote. In the meantime the whole political conversation has shifted to the right and will nor recover.
Having PVV form a government is not good. Not on the short term, definitely not on the long term.
I like your optimism, but VVD and NSC are probably going to try to work with Wilders.
I don’t see a connection between climate justice and justice for Palestinians, other than that it’s both about justice. Could you elaborate why it’s necessary to bring these seemingly unrelated struggles for justice together?
I btw totally see how a lot of social justice is tied to climate justice, but specifically the Palestinian struggle seems totally unrelated. Happy to change my mind.
There are huge differences. One country came into existence due to a federation disintegrating, because its members called for independence. The other country came in existence because an occupier forced it upon the people living there.
There wasn’t also a huge amount of migration involved with Ukraine. People mostly continued their lives when Ukraine became independent. The founding of Israel involved many Jews for all over the world migrating to that area. You can imagine that affects the people already living there.
It’s also hard to imagine people will live in harmony when one side literally enforces an apartheid regime on the other side.
Every country that joined the EU after the 1992 Maastricht treaty has to adopt the euro. Denmark signed that treaty, UK as well, but if they rejoin, they’d more than likely be treated as a new member.
Netherlands too. Amsterdam is even planning to change major inner city roads to 30km/h (minor roads already are).
Ocean cleanup is also working on systems to prevent plastic from leaving rivers and flowing into the oceans.
Maybe Anne Frank is the vegetarian burger?
A DSLR doesn’t fit in your pocket… I’m really happy with my Pixel 6a camera. The night shot mode is really nice. Sure, I can get better shots with my mirrorless and a tripod, but I’m not gonna carry those with me all day (I hardly bring my mirrorless, let alone the tripod).
I haven’t explored other camera apps. I assume they haven’t implemented all the software magic that’s running on that Tensor chip?
Haven’t used my sous vide stick in ages, could use some inspiration that doesn’t involve meat!
Some (most?) Italians will do a bit of wiping and the move over. I guess you can even stand up and then sit on the bidet without wiping, as you’ll wash the whole area anyway?
It’s both.
Enough people need to reduce meat consumption and realize there are alternatives (and make it interesting to innovate alternatives for meat – just look at the explosion of alternatives over the last five years). They also contribute to creating awareness around this subject, influencing others to change or at least consider changing their behaviour.
Because in the end you need enough support to enact changes such as a meat tax. This has been tried in the Netherlands, but there still isn’t sufficient support to introduce this.
I doubt Trump puts so much thought into his choice of words.
