Hundreds of masked white nationalists marched on Washington DC waving Confederate flags and chanting anti-immigrant slogans on the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States.

Israel runs one of the worst mass torture programs in all of human history. Believe me, this is no exaggeration. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were detained and tortured since 1948. People lost their mind, some never spoke again, and others did not recognize their family when they were freed.
People still don't get the true meaning of Zionism and Israel. Maybe someday they will. A great service to humanity, this show by Carlson

Medianoche del 25 de abril en Portugal. La gente se reúne en el Convento do Carmo a cantar Grândola Vila Morena, la canción que inició la Revolución de los Claveles en 1974. Comenzaba así la tercera ola mundial de democratización.

"Veteran's Against Fascism," including disabled veterans, were arrested inside of the Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran.
This is Trump's America.

BREAKING: Fareed Zakaria just gave a masterclass on everything that’s wrong with Donald Trump’s second term policies. This is incredible.

After the right to torture Palestinians, Apartheid Israel claims the right to HANG Palestinians. The shame of the century continues.
Ben Gvir belongs in The Hague.
URGENT: UN experts @FranceskAlbs and @profbensaul deplore #Israel’s adoption of the death penalty law which violates international law and risks discriminatory application against #Palestinians and call for its immediate repeal.

"The question Member States must answer is clear: are they going to stand up for just political solution for the OPT and for Palestinian refugees? Are they going to stand up for international law? Are they going to stand up for the UN, including for @UNRWA?"

Rosetta Tharpe was shredding an electric guitar and electrifying crowds in the 1930s and 40s while most people had never even heard the term rock and roll yet. Her gospel fire, rhythm, and guitar style directly influenced artists like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Little Richard, and Chuck Berry. Long before stadium tours and rock legends, she was already doing it. Put some respect on her name — Rosetta Tharpe is the true founder of rock and roll.

Let us in.
For more than two years, we’ve been barred from entering Gaza to report freely. It’s long past time for Israel to lift this ban and #LetUsIn.

Crónica de una muerte anunciada en el Sáhara Occidental.
El abandono de España y los intereses de Estados Unidos y Marruecos entierran el derecho de autodeterminación del Sáhara.
Estados Unidos quiere regalar el Sáhara a Marruecos con el beneplácito de la ONU.
Sólo Rusia o China pueden vetar el plan de Trump. Espero equivocarme pero creo que no lo harán.
Rusia tiene un gran acuerdo pesquero con Marruecos en aguas del Sáhara y hace poco, lo renovaron. China parece que se inclina ligeramente hacia Marruecos.
El plan de Estados Unidos anexiona el Sáhara Occidental a Marruecos y le dota de "cierta autonomía". España, aún potencia administradora del territorio, apoya el plan y guarda silencio.
Los intereses de Estados Unidos y Marruecos son claros, los recursos naturales y minerales del territorio saharaui.
Dos factores diferenciales. Las minas de fosfatos (Marruecos dice tener el 70% de todas las reservas mundiales de roca de fosfato) y uno de los caladeros de pesca más productivos del mundo.
