Across #China, tens of thousands of people tagged as troublemakers…are trapped in a #digital cage, barred from leaving their province & sometimes even their homes by the world’s largest digital #surveillance apparatus. Most of this #technology came from companies in a country that has long claimed to support freedoms worldwide: the #UnitedStates.

Israel is a rogue state.
No country, no region, no city, no village, no building, no hospital, no school, no home, no person, no child is safe from Israel.

Critically, American #surveillance #technologies allowed a brutal mass #detention campaign in the far west region of #Xinjiang — targeting, tracking & grading virtually the entire native #Uyghur population to forcibly assimilate & subdue them.

Such systems mine a vast array of information — texts, calls, payments, flights, video, DNA swabs, mail deliveries, the internet, even water & power use — to unearth individuals deemed suspicious & predict their behavior. But they also allow Chinese #police to threaten friends & family & preemptively detain people for crimes they have not even committed.

Courage. Resilience. Freedom.
Ukraine’s flag carries them all.
On Ukraine’s Flag Day, it proudly stands before our Brussels headquarters.
A strong signal that Europe continues to stand united united on Ukraine's side for a just and lasting peace. Today, like every day.
Ми з вами. We are with you.
Or I are your values reserved for fellow #whites maybe?
It has strategic value for #Ukraine. 2 cities, Kramatorsk & Sloviansk, have served as a Ukrainian military hub since #Russia mounted a hybrid invasion of the area in 2014 & are among the most heavily fortified parts of the front. If Ukrainian forces were to fall back, they would lose those defenses. At least 200,000 Ukrainians also still live on the land.
“Some of Ukraine’s strongest defensive positions are in #Donetsk, & ceding those defenses would position #Russia to reattack in the future from a much more advantageous position,” said David Shimer, who led #Ukraine policy on the White House #NationalSecurity Council during the #Biden admin. Ceding the region, he said, would be a “massive concession.”

The collapse of all respect for #HumanRights, #InternationalLaw and the #UN is having consequences.
It's become clear that utter #genocide may be openly announced, planned, and carried out, supported by other nations (like mine) with weapons deliveries, and with "good reasons" why infants and their mothers need to die, and why their blood on our hands should be considered somebody else's fault.
Every scumbag in every rotten government on this planet has realized by now that if others can get away with open genocide, they can get away with any other item on their agendas, as well. The law of the jungle is back.
#Resistance will have to reconsider what being effective means, under such circumstances. Hundreds of thousands on the streets obviously aren't, this should be clear by now.
Do not expose yourself to harm by discussing your conclusions openly.

"Our Genocide": Israeli human rights groups declare Israel committing genocide in Gaza
B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel have published reports concluding that Israel is committing #genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The organizations document mass killing, destruction of infrastructure, forced displacement, and systematic dismantling of healthcare systems over 21 months of military operations.
According to #haaretz numerous international organizations have reached similar conclusions, including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Doctors Without Borders, and several Israeli genocide researchers and Holocaust scholars.
B'Tselem warns the genocide may expand to other areas where Palestinians live under Israeli rule and calls for urgent international action using all available means under international law to halt the violence.

In a First, Leading Israeli Rights Groups Accuse #Israel of #Gaza#Genocide
Israel says it is fighting against Hamas, not #Palestinians as a group. But 2 of Israel’s best-known #HumanRights groups said Monday that Israel was committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, adding fuel to a passionately fought international debate over whether the death & destruction there have crossed a moral red line.
