@GM7077 au moins, la cloture de l'article est plus nuancée, en donnant la parole à des organismes qui dénoncent le racisme de cet incident.

@lutzray D'accord, mais c'est tout de même une ridicule peur bleue. Comme si toutes les phrases arabes voulaient dirent "mort à l'Amérique"...

It's up to the people who create the pollution to fix it. China has been addressing their problem.

A bit of black humour from my favourite satire site

“I don’t understand what went wrong!” sighed the facility’s chief scientist. “I added a flawed constitution, an electoral system designed by slave owners, a biased and corrupt supreme court, and centuries of frothing racism, violent sexism, and misguided exceptionalism.

“A second Trump presidency is game over for meaningful climate action this decade, and stabilizing warming below 1.5C probably becomes impossible.”

Israeli warplanes have bombed a house in northern Gaza’s Beit Lahiya town, killing a mother and her three children, according to the Wafa news agency.

The Palestinian Information Centre (Palinfo) identified the mother as Shurooq al-Radhi, wife of Naseem al-Radhi, who is imprisoned by Israeli authorities.

“Dahiyeh Doctrine”

The doctrine, which takes its name from the Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut and entails the large-scale destruction of civilian infrastructure to pressure a hostile government or armed group, was devised in the context of Israel’s 2006 war on #Lebanon

Israeli jets dropped more than 80, 2000-pound “bunker-busting” bombs that have a destruction radius of 35 metres (115 feet) on their target. The strike that killed Nasrallah also flattened six residential buildings

The doctrine, for example, was clearly in play during Israel’s “Operation Cast Lead” in 2008 that killed 1,400 Palestinians, including 300 children, in Gaza. The Goldstone report from the UN’s post-war fact-finding mission found that Israeli soldiers “deliberately subjected civilians, including women and children, to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment… in order to terrorize, intimidate and humiliate them”.

It also detailed that the Israeli forces systematically destroyed Gaza’s civilian infrastructure, including flour mills, farms, wastewater treatment plants, water installations and residential buildings.

In the USA, you would have to be somewhat suicidal to ride a bike on many of our roads.

Israeli soldiers continue to bomb and destroy Kamal Adwan Hospital in war-battered northern Gaza, the territory’s Health Ministry says, suggesting that the plan seems to be to execute medical workers who refused to evacuate.

This is just pointless and cruel


Mark Longo, who rescued an orphaned squirrel that became a social media star, describes how authorities raided his New York state animal sanctuary and seized the furry creature, along with a rescued racoon. Both animals were later euthanized.

Conservative Senators block bill that would ban live export of horses from Canada for slaughter in Japan


100 more horses going for slaughter in Japan from Canada's Edmonton International Airport. The horses came from Grover feedlot near Hanna, so besides the time and stress of being loaded onto the trucks and the 3+ hour drive to Edmonton, they now face the loading onto the plane here and then a grueling journey to Japan. All this without food, water and rest.

Bill C-355 banning live export, is stalled in the Senate, largely due to delaying tactics by several Conservative Senators (led by Senate Opposition Leader, Don Plett).

Canadians can reach out to their provincial Senators. Go here to find your Senators sencanada.ca/en/senators/?v=li…
Then choose Province (Designation) to locate your provincial Senators. Phone numbers and email addresses for each Senator are to be found by clicking on individual names.

4 Lebanese civilians have been reported killed due to Israeli airstrikes targeting multiple areas in the ancient city of Tyre in southern Lebanon earlier today.


Just like the #Taliban and #ISIS, Israel is destroying #UNESCO sites, but with American and German bombs and money.

Our latest Honest Government Ad is out , and it features a very special guest actor:

her name is Ingyin Hlaing Hlaing and she is a refugee from the 2021 military coup in Myanmar. If you know about the conflict in Myanmar, you'll appreciate how brave it is of her to front this video. And If you don't, then this HGA will give you a good overview in under 5 minutes!

AirBus really are a criminal cartel that happens to manufacture aircraft. But at least they still have a safety regime, I'll give them that.
