Hallo #DerSpiegel, wieso "rügte" Bundestagsministerin Klöckner die Abgeordnete nach dem Zwischenruf, wenn sie korrigiert, dass es sich bei dem Völkermord in #gaza nicht um einen Krieg handele, sondern um Genozid? Und was hat dies mit Staatsräson zu tun, wenn UN und Den Haag selbst von Genozid sprechen? Eine "Relativierung" verbietet sich hier tatsächlich: die internationalen Gesetze sind nämlich klar, an Hunger sterbende Zivilisten gibt es nicht erst seit dem 15.Mai, wie Herr Merz behauptet.


The ancient Romans were masters of building and engineering. Even today one of their structures, the Pantheon, is still intact nearly 2,000 years after it was built, a long time for concrete to last. Researchers from MIT may now know why. @ScienceAlert has the story:

Anoche le conté a Pato del sueño que tuve donde conocíamos al Che. Y cantamos juntos la canción de la Adarga al brazo de Frank Delgado, que se la canto desde que era un bebé.

Me preguntó quién era Camilo y quién era Changó.

Y hablamos de cómo murió el Che, cuándo se fue de Cuba, de cuando Fidel visitó Chile en el 72 y de otras cosas de esa América Latina.

Al final, le dije que muchos de los compañeros de él no sabían quién era el Che, o Fidel, Pepe Mujica, Lula o Allende, ni sabían del golpe en Chile o las dictaduras. Nunca habían oído las canciones que nosotros cantamos. Y que era posible que nunca se le hablara de eso en el colegio o en estudios sociales y era importante saber la historia de los pueblos.

Se sorprendió mucho

A thing I really didn't expect in this parliament was that the UK's immigration debate would get more *weird and stupid*. More anti-immigration, yeah, I expected that, that always happens when we have a Labour government. But more detached from 'actual countries', I did not expect that.

Deadly Israeli strikes pound Gaza

Israeli strikes on Gaza have killed more than 250 people since Thursday morning, local health authorities said on Friday, one of the deadliest phases of bombardment since a truce collapsed in March, with a new ground offensive expected soon. U.S. President Donald Trump, who ended a Middle East tour on Friday with no apparent progress […]

President Maduro Vows to Rescue Kidnapped Venezuelan Migrants in El Salvador and Reunite Families telesurenglish.net/president-m…
in reply to Acta Populi

Announcing this goal ahead of time might make it more difficult to accomplish.


If Keir Starmer thinks (as being reported) that the real political opponent is ReformUK, then his brazen attempts to move Labour nearer them makes no sense - they already occupy that political ground convincingly, and their voters will not vote for an ersatz version.

At the vey same time there is a centre & centre-left segment of the public, outnumbering Reform voters who Starmer seems to think he can just rely on, even while alternatives (including refusing to vote) are burgeoning!

#politics

in reply to Emeritus Prof Christopher May

I try to give him benefit of doubt. No point in just aiming for change, if you've no power. If Starmer stays in we also get Rayner and Milliband voice heard. And since (with media help) many voters see immigration as a problem, democrats have to listen to them. I campaign hard for climate, but back Starmer as PM. I don't want Farage or Jenrick to win through a single wasted vote!
in reply to Irena

@ORIOliver

yes the centre left & left finds itself in a difficult position, but Starmer is spending what diminished credit he had very fast & with no attempt to store up credit - however equally as you say there are other MPs in the cabinet whose views, if heard, would promise some sensible policies

In Graduation Speech, NYU Student Condemns U.S.-backed Israeli War in Gaza


in reply to MangioneDontMiss

Before you post this garbage again, look into the history of what Israel has been doing to Gaza since we helped Israel become a thing.
in reply to MangioneDontMiss

It did. And then the following years happened. And before Oct 7, a whole bunch of other years and days happened. Those all factor in too you know, right?
in reply to MangioneDontMiss

Why do you think that someone attacking you gives you the right to murder children, starve the entire population, and kill off any aid workers or journalists trying to mitigate your war crimes?
in reply to Peter Link

I don’t understand why there’s any crackdown on any of this. Not liking a war is kinda traditional around here. Or was.

Maybe that’s it. Maybe they’re planning another unpopular war and this is the preliminary work.

"We commend Logan for using this opportunity to demand an end to the bloodshed in Gaza,” said Afaf Nasher, executive director of CAIR-NY, a Muslim civil rights organization. “We demand that NYU formally release Logan’s diploma, which he rightfully earned, and suspend any disciplinary proceedings against him.”"

Pond Sprites spawn when water has high levels of miasma. They're incredibly shy and can often be found hiding underneath lotus leaves. If you've ever seen one moving across the water, it is likely you have been in the presence of one of these round creatures.

Researchers believe the tainted waters feel rejuvenating to them, balancing their miasma levels so they can continue to exist. These creatures, although cute, are toxic to humans. Just being in the water with them can cause a rash.

Das Bild zeigt den hinteren Teil eines pinken Elektroscooters, der auf einem gepflasterten Gehweg steht. Der Stoßfänger des Scooters ist schwarz und trägt ein rotes Etikett mit der Aufschrift "Respect the street park mich richtig". Der Scooter hat eine schwarze Pedalebene mit einem rutschfesten Muster. Die Reifen sind dunkel und der Hinterradabdeckung ist ein kleines rotes Licht angebracht. Auf der Rückseite des Scooters ist eine Nummernschildplatte mit der Kennung "993 BXE" sichtbar. Der Gehweg besteht aus grauen, gepflasterten Steinen, und im Hintergrund ist ein Bereich aus cobblestone-ähnlichen Steinen zu sehen.

How did we miss Biden's infirmities? Because the economy was recovering nicely from the disaster the previous administration left it. Because our relationship with other countries was healing nicely after the previous administration had wrecked everything. Federal government was working in spite of Republicans efforts to jam up the works.
Somehow, this guy that was supposed to be so infirm built a highly competent administration that was taking care of business.
