BREAKING: Masked Islamists are now making their way Rockefeller Christmas Tree and St Patrick's Cathedral.
Many have already been arrested for assaulting police.
Min morfar hette Wilhelm Zev Meyersohn, men han kallades för Willy. Han var 27 år gammal den 9-10 november 1938 under Kristallnatten då tyskarna, uppiskade av nazistpartiets stormtrupper, plundrade och förstörde judiska affärer och hem, sjukhus och skolor, synagogor och byggnader över hela Tyskland, Österrike och Sudet. 30 000 judiska män arresterades och spärrades in i koncentrationsläger.
Morfar var smart nog att inte vara hemma. Han visste att de som var hemma snart plockades upp och föstes samman, trakasserades och skickades till koncentrationsläger. Morfar drog istället runt på staden i två dygn. Han höll sig till skuggorna i utkanten av de eldar där nazisterna och deras anhang brände böcker och konst. Judiska böcker och judisk konst. Han vandrade i två dygn över krossat glas från butiksfönster och kristallkronor som slängts ur lägenheterna ned på gatan medan hans landsmän härjade besatta av sitt hat gentemot judarna. I två dygn höll sig morfar undan nazisterna. Den tredje dagen blev han gripen och förd till Dachau.
Morfar sa att det var fruktansvärt i Dachau. Det var i november så det var kallt och ingen värme fanns att få. För att inte förfrysa sina fingrar urinerade de på dem. Morfar sade också att även om judarna behandlades som djur så var det värre för romerna och de homosexuella. De behandlades värre än djur.
Min morfar, Wilhelm ”Willy” Meyersohn, lyckades fly från Dachau, ut ur Tyskland, och sedan först till Danmark och när tyskarna tog Danmark, till Sverige. Min morfar överlevde. Men han lyckades inte rädda sin egen mor. Hon fördes senare till koncentrationsläger och dog.
Många överlevde inte kristallnatten. En historiker räknar också att över 600 judar tog livet av sig. Trakasserierna, hatet och besvikelsen över deras landsmäns brist på anständighet dödade dem.
Det är viktigt att komma ihåg att nazisterna inte gjorde detta för att de trodde sig vara onda. Tvärtom. Nazisterna trodde sig vara goda, rättrådiga och rättfärdiga. En viktig påminnelse om att de som tror sig moraliskt överlägsna är kapabla till vad som helst.
En påminnelse om att de som säger sig vara goda inte nödvändigtvis är goda. Oavsett hur ädla deras avsikter kan verka. Det är handlingar som avgör huruvida du är god eller ej. Om ditt mål är världsfred, jämställdhet eller en grönare värld spelar det mindre roll om du måste dreva på nätet, eller förstör andras liv och egendom, för att nå det målet.
De som överlevde Förintelsen hanterade det faktum att de överlevde på olika sätt. Min morfar var en oerhört snäll och godmodig man. Trots det han varit med om, och allt han förlorat, var han en mensch. Kanske var han mensch just på grund av det han förlorade?
De mekanismer som möjliggjorde kristallnatten är samma mekanismer som ledde till Förintelsen. De mekanismerna behöver inte klä sig i bruna skjortor. De kan klä sig i vilken dräkt som helst. Prydas av vilken symbol som helst. Det de har gemensamt är en fanatisk övertygelse om sin egen moraliska överlägsenhet.
De senaste åren har vi sett digitala drev omvandlas till horder av människor som tror sig marschera för en god sak. Nästan alltid urartar dessa till skenande flockar som förstör allt i sin väg.
Vägen till helvetet är som bekant lagd med goda föresatser. Det sägs också att Djävulen inte tar sig samma skepnad två gånger. Ändå stirrar vi oss blinda efter de där bruna skjortorna, när hon lika gärna kan ha flätor, regnbågsfärgat hår och glitter i ansiktet.
Vila i frid morfar,
A

Que un Estado terrorista nos declare terroristas a nosotros marca de qué lado estamos.
Un país que le niega la libertad y los derechos humanos a su propio pueblo, que cometió dos atentados en nuestro país, asesinó a más de 35.000 personas por manifestarse a principios de este año y ejecutó en la horca a 1.700 mujeres por "exceder sus derechos", además de homosexuales, manifestantes y otros ciudadanos.
IRÁN DECLARÓ “TERRORISTAS” A LA ARMADA Y LA FUERZA AÉREA DE ARGENTINA
Irán declaró este miércoles a la Armada y la Fuerza Aérea argentinas como “organizaciones terroristas”, en respuesta a la decisión de Javier Milei de aplicar esa calificación a los Guardianes de la Revolución en marzo. La Cancillería iraní invocó el “principio de reciprocidad” y una ley de 2019 que permite adoptar represalias contra países que declaren terroristas a sus fuerzas militares. “El Gobierno argentino asumirá la responsabilidad de todas las consecuencias derivadas de esta acción”, advirtió Teherán.
El Gobierno argentino acusa a los Guardianes de la Revolución de apoyar a Hezbolá, organización a la que atribuye los atentados contra la Embajada de Israel en 1992 y la AMIA en 1994, que dejaron decenas de muertos. En enero, Argentina ya había declarado terrorista a la Fuerza Quds, una unidad de los Guardianes, y en abril expulsó al máximo representante diplomático iraní en Buenos Aires, Mohsen Soltani Tehrani. La nueva medida se produce en un contexto de tensiones diplomáticas y de alineamiento del Gobierno con Estados Unidos e Israel.

Alice Huang — the suspected Chinese intelligence asset who had an affair with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang — has returned to China and is living in Beijing with the knowledge of Chinese security officials.
Full Story: bloom.bg/4kJQnW7

Watch this story very closely. China’s Megaspeed received between 5 and 7 billion dollars worth of Nvidia chips, or in reality, China did, which they should not have. Jensen and Alice may only be part of the story which eventually emerges. The race for the narrative, blame, and hearings has begun. Eyes wide open.

China’s overseas police stations never closed. They expanded into nearly 1,250 liaison points across 91 countries.
A new Safeguard Defenders report finds the structure exposed in 2022 stayed in place and grew. The points now export China’s domestic grid management abroad: neighbors watching neighbors, dossiers on “unstable factors,” and targeting of groups the CCP labels “xie jiao”—evil cults. More than ten police forces from five Chinese provinces are involved, and more jurisdictions run the system today than four years ago.
The Party’s category of “overseas Chinese” covers Chinese citizens abroad and foreign nationals of Chinese origin, with no generation limit. A 2023 State Council report put the total at more than 60 million people. The Overseas Chinese Federation, the United Front’s bridge to the diaspora, runs the system so that “when the Party calls, the overseas Chinese act.”
Beijing took the nameplates off the doors. The surveillance stayed. The grid is now global.

Lewis Hamilton, the Formula 1 driver and Kim Kardashian's boyfriend, visited the Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing this week, shown around by the governor of North Sinai. He wrote that he saw walls stretching for miles, built to keep Gazans in, and in the post to his 44M followers he blamed Israel.
Except those walls are Egyptian. Egypt razed the homes of their own people near the border to make room for them, and reinforced them during the war so that Palestinians fleeing the fighting could not cross into Sinai.
He stood in the country that built the wall, next to the official who runs the province it sits in, and never thought to ask who put up the wall or why.
He's not wrong about aid and how Palestinians need it, but advocacy sort of loses its efficiency when you show that you are either entirely ignorant about the situation or lying to feed a narrative.
Oh and Shawn Mendes reposted it too. I guess fact-checking is for a bygone era.

اهمیت مساله انویدیا اصلا بخاطر خیانتش نیست، مساله اینه که اون زن جاسوس چینی بوده و قطعاتی که انویدیا اجازه نداشته به چین بفروشه رو بهشون فروخته.
قبلا هم جنسن هوآنگ چندین بار تاکید کرده بود که کاملا از بازار چین خارج شدن که خب الان این مساله نشون میده یا میدونسته این قطعات دارن به چین میرن و دروغ گفته، یا نمیدونسته که در اون صورت احمقه. در هر دو صورت ضرر بزرگی به انویدیا میزنه.
خیانت بده، ولی یه مسئله خصوصیه بین آدم و خانوادهش. هزاران نفر خیانت میکنن و جز همسرشون کسی نمیفهمه. فقط وقتی طرف پولدار و معروفه، میشه تیتر خبر و ابزار نابود کردنش.اگه قانونگذارها روابط باز رو به رسمیت میشناختن،این موضوع اصلاً اینقدر قابل سوءاستفاده نبود🤷♀️

WSJ: "As recently as the summer of last year, Singapore was officially one of Nvidia’s biggest markets, generating 22% of the chip maker’s revenue. Then, practically overnight, it disappeared from the company’s financial disclosures. Investors deserve to know why, and Nvidia needs to start explaining, with or without Jensen Huang at the helm. The timeline indicates that Nvidia altered its methodology for reporting the geographic breakdown of its revenue shortly after placing Megaspeed International on an internal block list. It isn’t clear if the two are related, but the shift had the effect of removing visibility into Nvidia’s sales tied to Singapore. That is the home to Megaspeed, the cloud-computing company embroiled in a sex-and-espionage scandal that has engulfed Nvidia and its chief executive."

Europe's Forgotten Untouchables.
For more than seven centuries, a caste of people across the French and Spanish Pyrenees were forced to wear a red duck's foot sewn onto their clothing, shake a rattle to warn others of their approach, and enter churches through doors built deliberately low so they had to bow. They were called Cagots. Their first documented appearance is around 1288. Nobody, not then, not now, has ever established who they were, or why the hatred started.
They had no distinguishable characteristics. The Cagots spoke the same languages as their neighbors, practiced the same religion, and were physically indistinguishable from the general population. Medieval legends claimed they were lepers, heretics, or cannibals, claims contemporaneous writers admitted were baseless. They had no distinct faith, no distinct language, no known common ancestry. The only thing that made a person a Cagot was being born to a family already identified as one.
What they could do was carpentry. They became the woodworkers of the Pyrenees, building barrels, coffins, bridges, and churches. In the same churches they built, they received communion on the end of a long stick. Their holy water fonts were separate. Baptisms were held at nightfall, without bells. They were buried in separate corners of cemeteries. In the 18th century in Quimperlé, Brittany, a wealthy Cagot touched the holy water font reserved for "clean" citizens. His hand was cut off and nailed to the church door. The Victorian novelist Elizabeth Gaskell documented the story; the socket in the wall where it hung was still there when she visited.
In 1517, a group of Cagots petitioned Pope Leo X for relief. He issued a papal bull saying they should be treated fairly. It changed nothing. In 1789, the French Revolution formally abolished the laws against them. Many Cagots immediately raided local archives and destroyed any record of their ancestry, seven centuries of documentation, burned. As late as the 1840s, researcher Francisque Michel estimated more than 10,000 Cagots still living across Gascony and Navarre. By the 20th century, they had disappeared entirely into the general population. In 2008, a journalist in southwest France located a woman who believed she was a Cagot descendant and said the social stigma had persisted within living memory.
No theory of their origins has been proven. Visigoths. Cathars. Converted Moors. A medieval woodworkers' guild whose commercial rivals started a rumor. No one knows. They endured seven centuries of hatred for being different, and no one, including their persecutors, could ever say what made them different at all.
Seven centuries of hatred for a crime no one could define, against a people no one could identify.

HISTORIC MOMENT IN ANTALYA: CYPRUS PRESIDENT TELLS TURKEY, ON TURKISH SOIL, IN FRONT OF THEIR FLAG, THE REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS IS A SOVEREIGN, EQUAL AND INDEPENDENT UN MEMBER STATE🚨
President Nikos Christodoulides took the stage at COP31 in Antalya, Turkey, a country that illegally occupies almost half of the Republic of Cyprus since 1974 and is the only country on earth that refuses to recognise it.
He opened with the line that matters most:
“The Republic of Cyprus, a sovereign, equal and independent member state of the United Nations, comes to Antalya with a clear message.”
Erdogan’s response? He walked off the stage and refused to welcome the President of an EU and UN member state, UNSG @AntonioGuterres did the welcoming instead.
Turkey tried to keep Cyprus off the invitation list but the EU forced them to issue one. Christodoulides stood tall and told Turkey on their soil that the Republic of Cyprus exists.
Turkey’s occupation, non recognition and refusal to treat a UN member as a sovereign state are deliberate political choices. Standing in Antalya and stating the obvious that Cyprus is a sovereign state, was a direct blow to Turkey’s decades long fiction.
The flag was behind President Christodoulides, his words were unambiguous and the snub only made the point louder.
52 years of occupation does not rewrite international law or UN membership.
