Human Rights Watch now also condemning Nusseibeh - if her mere
candidacy is drawing such outrage, her winning would be nothing short of a crisis for the human rights community.
Lana Zaki Nusseibeh, a long-serving UAE diplomat and foreign affairs official, has an extensive record of denying and whitewashing the country’s rights abuses in Sudan and Yemen. New from @hrw :

So you don't view Arab citizens as Israelis? Thanks for clarifying, Mr. Ambassador.
Today is election day in Israel, which is a national holiday. All voting is in person, ID required. No mail-in or absentee ballots. Arabs vote same as Israelis. Contentious process, but it's a democracy-not many of those in this region!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Arab voters are Israeli citizens. Listing them in contrast to Israelis is misconstruing the facts.

I am following with concern the grave humanitarian situation in Yemen, particularly in the city of Taiz, where the population is suffering from a lack of food, water and medical care. I make a heartfelt appeal for hostilities to cease and for the Yemeni people and all the peoples of the region to be guaranteed the right to live in peace.

The US holds another secret meeting with Myanmar's military government, which continues to bomb and kill its own people. Washington's support of democracy in Myanmar has been abandoned in favour of a "transactionalist" approach, @hmarston4 told us. reuters.com/world/asia-pacif…

Genocidal slaughter is tiring work.
With the scale of the killing its a miracle they can find time for anything else.

Not proud, but I once got creative and registered a team of 20-year-olds in a U10s tournament. Other coaches kept saying "you can't use them" and "they have beards" and "I think that's Myles Lewis-Skelly." But whatever happened behind the scenes, the game is won on the pitch.

Hot off successfully replacing Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei, Trump has now successfully replaced the 1951 US-Denmark treaty with the 1951 US-Denmark treaty. A record to run on!
This historic deal is a huge win for the United States and the American people. Thanks to President Trump’s vision and leadership, this historic agreement permanently guarantees U.S. security interests in the Arctic at zero cost to the U.S. taxpayer.
Greenland will forever be part of the strategic defense area of North America and exclude any adversary from it and the surrounding area.
This deal permanently and completely addresses our national security concerns in Greenland.
It has also hypercharged anxiety and self preservation throughout a system OCHA has a mandate and responsibility to coordinate collectively.

Hoje começa mais uma Copa do Mundo.
A primeira sem Pelé. A primeira sem Zagallo.
Mas toda vez que a amarelinha entrar em campo, eles entram junto.
E olha só: hoje é dia 13.
Então já sabe. Bora acreditar.
Bora atrás da sexta estrela.
Pelo Brasil. Por eles. 🇧🇷⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The #Bangladesh DGFI recently summoned journalist @Miraajripon to interrogate and threaten him.
Now would be a good time for @trahmanbnp and the Great Minds at DGFI to read some of Miraj's reporting.
It's not 2023. Stay in your lane.
