The belief in a “new world disorder” isn’t new but nostalgic and rearguard, reflects Atlanticist and American rather than cosmopolitan priors, and misses opportunity in its reduction of all change to risk. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Asset managers define "Ultra-High Net Worth" as individuals worth $30m+.
There are about 500,000 such individuals in the world, worth a total of about $60 trillion.
If we busted all those guys down to a mere $30m each <sad-face emoji> it would free up $45 trillion for global poverty reduction.

Die Hungersnot in Gaza ist das Ergebnis der israelischen Politik, Hunger als Kriegswaffe einzusetzen. Israel hat sich des Verbrechens gegen die Menschlichkeit der Ausrottung und der Völkermordhandlungen schuldig gemacht.

Die verzweifelten Hilferufe hungernder Palästinenser*innen dürfen nicht ignoriert werden
Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie sehen Ihre Kinder untröstlich weinen, weil sie vor Hunger Bauchkrämpfe haben und Sie nichts tun können. Das sind die verzweifelten Hilferufe, die aus Gaza kommen.

Es ist unglaublich dass in der EU noch immer ueber die Aussetzung des Assozierungsabkommens und Sanktionen gegen Israel gestritten wird. Shame on Deutschland.
Now in English:
"IDF officers and soldiers told Haaretz they were ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present."

Europe is just amazing. They are producing a most extraordinary combination of the 1990s "I lecture you about peace and democracy" with blatant lies.
What an astonishing thing for the President of the European Commission to say in the present context in a long readout of her call with Netanyahu published on socials.
