ALT Cover of draGons! - a quadrilingual picture book for young children and their parents. There is an 84-year age difference between the author and the illustrator. (Over 3,000 years difference between them and their protagonists!) More information at https://la-granota.com/list.htm
ALT Poster inviting people to lead their dragons on invasions of literature (must be literature in public domain, that is: free of copyright, e.g. © expired). The poster shows the proposed cover of the anthology: a painting of a dragon invading "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll. It's tossing the White Rabbit into the air, and Alice is running away in the background, throwing the book she was reading into the air. The title of the anthology is "And Then The Dragons Came! an anthology of dragon invasions of famous works of literature". At the foot of the cover are the La Gr@not@ logo and the words "ALL profits to Amnesty International". Full instructions for participating can be read at the head of the page linked to in the main post. (The link itself takes you to the 2nd of 4 poems by William Wordsworth, after invasions by dragons.)
ALT Not worth reading. It's a public statement by Sir Keir "Genocide Enabler" Starmer praising the UN Security Council's passing of a virtually worthless resolution. The resolution itself calls for increased aid to be sent to Gaza, but - due to the justified fear of a US veto - stops short of calling for a ceasefire. The probable result is that Israel will also bomb, shell, and snipe at aid convoys, in addition to hospitals, UN facilities, and journalists - its favourite targets. It should be remembered that Keir "Useless, Bad-Liar Arsehole" Starmer has argued against a ceasefire, ordered his party's MPs to vote against one, fired those who voted for one, and openly supported the starving (including cutting off water & electricity supplies) of millions of Palestinians, including - of course - babies and little children. Now that the tide of public opinion is turning against him, Sir Keir is trying to save his political skin /cling to power as Labour's leader with these empty platitudes.
ALT A red square. The headline, in black, capital letters, reads "THINK ABOUT THIS!" White letters (mostly lower case) continue: "If your Judaism - your Jewish identity - means that you must UNCONDITIONALLY support an Israeli government which is bombing hospitals and refugee camps, killing innocent civilians (including children); if it means that you must call "antisemitic" ANYONE who calls for an end to the war, ANYONE who supports the concept of Palestinian Rights, ANYONE who says that Palestinian Rights are HUMAN Rights... then you're saying that Judaism = Barbarism + Cruelty + Inhumanity. You are INSULTING Judaism and ALL Jewish People. so it's YOU who are antisemitic!
