⚠️⚠️⚠️ In this column, @LorenzClimate , Vivien Fisch-Romito and myself expose the racist manipulation of "sustainability" by the far-right Swiss People's Party SVP/UDC. Their ultimate goal is to uphold inequality while scapegoating migrants.

Can’t recommend enough @thedigradio series on Indonesia from Dutch colonialism to present. Amazing how little most Americans know about the 4th largest population center in the world, whose history has been central to changes in the world system over hundreds of years. Links ⬇️

Israeli kanagaroo courts have a 99% conviction rate against Palestinians. Now theyre imposing the death penalty as part of sentencing. It goes w/o saying this punishment won’t b applied to Jewish IsraelIs. But pls cut our mics again when we say apartheid. apple.news/A1B-1NQqBROWohcZU…

From Gaza to Iran, the pattern is the same: precision weapons, chosen blindness, and dead children. The cost of failing to regulate AI warfare is already too high. ** My thoughts @guardian theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i…

I would say I’m fairly knowledgeable about the corruption, violence, coercive authority, and brutal imperial power that pervades extractive sectors and yet I am still in shock at this Trump admin move to secure Zambian minerals

You cannot protect "British lives" by committing the UK into aiding & abetting an illegal and illegitimate war of agression against Iran. The only task you can thus achieve is to continue to serve the murderous interests of the US/Israel in the Middle East. Disaster, Mr Starmer.
My update on the situation in the Middle East.

The US attacks on Iran are illegal, so the UK cannot aid or assist them. But Iran's attacks on Gulf States are also illegal, so the UK can join in their collective self-defense. Starmer therefore decides to defend the Gulf States ... by aiding the US. This man is a lawyer.

Europe continues to invoke the UN Charter when it suits them (Greenland) and ignore it when it doesn't (Iran).
The latest developments across the Middle East are perilous. Iran’s regime has killed thousands. Its ballistic missile and nuclear programmes, along with support for terror groups, pose a serious threat to global security. The EU has adopted strong sanctions against Iran and supported diplomatic solutions, including on the nuclear issue. I have spoken to Israel’s Foreign Minister Saar and other ministers in the region. The EU is also coordinating closely with Arab partners to explore diplomatic paths. Protection of civilians and international humanitarian law is a priority. Our consular network is fully engaged in facilitating departures for EU citizens. Non-essential EU personnel are being withdrawn from the region. Our Aspides naval mission remains on high alert in the Red Sea and stands ready to help keep the maritime corridor open.
