Just sickened watching standing ovations for a war criminal. Shameful. #PalestineGenocide #PalestiniansLivesMatter

Colonial injustice continues even today at Diego Garcia by the keepers of democracy and rules based order. Of course no one could challenges their atrocity ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ. Thank you @firstpost @palkisu ๐๐ฝ

#FirstpostFlashback: In the 1960s and 1970s, the United States and the United Kingdom stole an island located in the Indian Ocean. They emptied the island of its local population and converted it into a military base in the middle of the ocean.
How did the UK and the US take control of this strategically important island? Who is the rightful owner of this land? And what happened to the locals who once lived there? @Palkisu tells you on Flashback.
Duty of judges to speak out in defence of the judiciary!
Is it appropriate for judges to speak out in defense of the judiciary? Yes. Judges have a right to free expression. More importantly, they are experts on incursions against judicial independence such as political pressure, targeted disinformation, and personalized threats. (1/n)

Another fantastic Animation Dingle comes to an end. The students work is extremely impressive, and over 38k raised for UNICEF at the animation art auction. Well done Maurice, Dingle crew and Jam Media ๐๐ โ at Kerry, Ireland

โ๏ธ Why do countries appoint foreign judges? What functions do these outsiders perform? How are they received by local actors? How well do they do their job? This excellent book answers all of these questions, and many more.

On this St. Patrick's Day, as we remember the trials of Ireland, our hearts turn to Palestine, where the somber echoes of 'Never Again' ring hollow amid a fresh holocaust. Over 31,000 lives lost - mostly women and children, the very essence of innocence - this day is not for celebration but for igniting the flames of justice, standing in unwavering solidarity against the barbarism of genocide and occupation.
Our shared struggles ignite a relentless pursuit of justice, and we will not rest, we will not falter until the architects of these crimes against humanity are dragged into the unforgiving light of accountability.
Today, we raise our voices not in joy, but in a fiery vow to shepherd Palestine from the shadows of oppression into a dawn radiant with freedom - a pledge sealed with the tears of the Emerald Isle, crying out for nothing less than Palestinian liberation and peace.

Al Shifa Hospital Director, Mohammed Abu Salmiyeh, has been in Israeli jails for months without any info about him. His only guilt is refusing to leave his patients behind.
Keep talking about the dozens of Gaza's medical staff who were unlawfully detained by Israeli soldiers.
