Before enhancing photos on Twitter, my feed once focused entirely on London history. But always having an interest in old colour film, I made this edit of colour footage of the Fascists gatherings in the capital in 1939 under Oswald Mosely. It seems relevant to retweet it today. They never did go away.

Hamas begged the Arabs who live in Israel to join them and fight Israel.
This photo gives you an idea of what the Arabs in Israel decided to do!
It's doesn't matter of you are an Arab or a Jew - if you are an Israeli, you are a target of Hamas terrorism!

An emperor shrimp hitches a ride on a Spanish dancer during a Photo Ark shoot. Spanish dancers, named because their movement is reminiscent of flamenco dancers, are one of the largest sea slug species known to science, growing up to 15 inches in length.
