📷: The original manuscript of the United Nations Charter.
The creation of the UN was the result of a global commitment to “save succeeding generations from the scourge of war."
80 years later, the UN remains essential for advancing peace, prosperity & human rights.
#UN80

Ukrainians have their suits. Hundreds of thousands changed their office attire for military uniforms to protect homes and families. For others, daily outfits symbolize saving lives. ⬇️
Apart from the general mess of the UA/US meeting it’s very telling that a fatigues-wearing leader of a country defending western interests against a war of aggression is berated for not wearing a suit whereas a slimey tech billionaire can walk around in the oval wearing whatever.

Doctors Without Borders just had access to the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza after the ceasefire, and this is the testimony of the emergency coordinator about Israel’s techniques of genocide: deliberate destruction of life saving machines to completely depopulate the area.

The Berlin section of Germany’s largest pacifist organisation is protesting *against* the demo for a “just peace in Palestine and Israel”
This a society in genocidal mania, again

Anyone who cared about No Other Land should care about what is actually happening on the ground: today our water tanks, 9 homes and 3 ancient caves were destroyed. Masafer Yatta is disappearing in front of my eyes. Only one name for these actions: ethnic cleansing.

Today Israeli undercover forces raided both branches of the Educational Bookshop, a well-respected Palestinian institution in Jerusalem.
After an hour search, they confiscated English and Arabic books, and detained the owners Ahmad Muna and Mahmoud Muna.

🚨 NEWS: Former Israeli Minister Yoav Gallant makes two major admissions:
1. Israel killed its own citizens on Oct. 7 under the "Hannibal Directive."
2. Hamas agreed to the current ceasefire in July, yet Biden backed 6 more months of Gaza massacres.

The Palestinian people have the right to simply live as human beings in their own land.
The @UN is fully committed to peace, stability, and the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people.

What Trump said he wants to do fits the dictionary definition of ethnic cleansing. There is no need for media to hedge and call it “relocation”, “resettlement”, “transfer” or anything else. Journalism is supposed to be about accuracy.

How can this now be an almost daily occurrence? There needs to be a serious clampdown on this extremist settler violence. It is a question of human rights (of the Palestinians living there) and of security (because nobody can have an interest in setting the Westbank aflame).

Europe needs a surge in defence.
For years, we have underinvested in defence.
We need to catch up.
And strengthen our defence industrial base ↓ xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1lDxLlBnP…

Israel’s ban on UNRWA threatens life-saving aid, education and healthcare for millions of #PalestineRefugees.
"It will deepen and further the suffering of the Palestinian people who rely on the agency for survival," @JulietteTouma tells @BBC. bbc.com/news/articles/cx257j…

🚨🚨 Ich habe eine Frage @oe1
Wieso wurde gerade eben bei der Sendung mit UN Sonderberichterstatterin Francesca Albanese ein Disclaimer eingefügt, in dem darauf hingewiesen wird, dass es zu „Reaktionen“ gekommen ist? Wurde die Redaktion unter Druck gesetzt? Wenn ja, von wem?
🚨 Ganz große Empfehlung! HEUTE um 21.00 Uhr kann man auf Ö1 nochmal das großartige Gespräch mit der UN-Sonderberichterstatterin für die besetzten palästinensischen Gebiete, @FranceskAlbs nachhören.
Sachlich und sehr gut aufbereitet! oe1.orf.at/programm/20250130…

I am excited that my new book, Iran’s Grand Strategy: A Political History will be out in late spring. It is comprehensive examination of how Iran sees its national security and interests and why it adopts particular strategies to achieve them.
