We are not here to curse the darkness, but to light the candle that can guide us through that darkness to a safe and sane future. - John F. Kennedy

Assad was a monster. This man is a monster too. Syria is filled with monsters. The vast majority of its peoples fled for a reason. Let’s not sugarcoat this continuing monstrousness just to appease delicate western sensibilities. x.com/thehonestlypod/status/…

Important interview: HTS leader Jolani says he has no intention to turn Syria into Afghanistan since these are two different societies with separate culture and history. Strong support for the ethnic and religious diversity. He supports women’s education and says alcohol is a matter that should he decided by the committee that will draft the constitution

It’s not as if Syrians haven’t cried out for 50 years about Assad’s murderous regime - yet, here we are once again - mute and dumbfounded about what we all knew what was happening. God help us

Australians of all faiths and none need to speak up against this Jew hate spreading relentlessly through our country. I will not accept this. And I will let my political leaders know. I want the force of law applied against this and I want it now.
Last night’s arson attack on a Melbourne synagogue is a shocking antisemitic crime. It should be condemned by all people of good will, whether those of faith or not. Those who incite hate or perpetrate such crimes must be prosecuted by the law.

This should be of interest to all pondering the issue of assisted dying
I have written in today’s @Glasgow_Times about assisted dying. It is an issue I feel very conflicted about - but the more deeply I consider it, the more I find myself veering against. I summarise my reasons here. However, I would very much welcome views from constituents ahead of a vote in @ScotParl

🎉🌼🌸April Fools! 🌸🌼🎉 Only kidding. Obviously, the people mentioned in the above tweets aren't women at all, but men, every last one of them. In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls. The new legislation is wide open to abuse by activists who wish to silence those of us speaking out about the dangers of eliminating women's and girls’ single-sex spaces, the nonsense made of crime data if violent and sexual assaults committed by men are recorded as female crimes, the grotesque unfairness of allowing males to compete in female sports, the injustice of women’s jobs, honours and opportunities being taken by trans-identified men, and the reality and immutability of biological sex. For several years now, Scottish women have been pressured by their government and members of the police force to deny the evidence of their eyes and ears, repudiate biological facts and embrace a neo-religious concept of gender that is unprovable and untestable. The re-definition of 'woman' to include every man who declares himself one has already had serious consequences for women's and girls’ rights and safety in Scotland, with the strongest impact felt, as ever, by the most vulnerable, including female prisoners and rape survivors. It is impossible to accurately describe or tackle the reality of violence and sexual violence committed against women and girls, or address the current assault on women’s and girls’ rights, unless we are allowed to call a man a man. Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal. I'm currently out of the country, but if what I've written here qualifies as an offence under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment. If you agree with the views set out in this tweet, please retweet it. #ArrestMe #AprilFools #HateCrimeActScotland 11/X

Photographed by Mark Shaw in Hyannisport in 1959 it is said to have been JFK’s favourite photo of himself. It certainly captures a certain something about him that makes JFK so fascinating

According to the Rest Is History podcast, JFK’s grandfather John Fitzgerald was the first public official in the US to light a public Christmas Tree as Mayor of Boston in 1912

You’re saying that Eisenhower went to church more regularly than any President until Biden, yes? That’s just silly. JFK attended mass at least weekly every Sunday as President - as required by any Catholic. But he certainly “attended church” way more than obligation demanded.
📸 President Joe Biden just quietly attended Mass at St. Joseph on the Brandywine Roman Catholic Church. According to reports, President Biden has attended church more while in office than any president in at least 70 years. Christian Conservatives, however, still overwhelemly support a man who has been married 3 times, cheated on his pregnant wife with a porn star, was found liable for rape and is currently facing 91 felony counts. Make it make sense.

My dear non-cricket followers and friends, its not that hard to understand. You just have to devote 5 days in a row of your life to one test match between 2 nations and ALL will be explained by the new friends you discover in the stands And then they become friends for life

What I love about JFK photos as President is that he almost always carries a hat in 1961 and 1962 that he will never put on his head, purely because of pressure from milliners that he was single-handedly destroying their business

It’s one thing to have someone all Australians once admired disappoint us, but it’s repugnant to discover that she’s revealed herself to be something utterly disgusting
Replying to @MaryKostakidis
‘If the Jews being shot and shoveled into ovens could just break through that wall, of course, they would kill anyone they found partying right on the other side of it! And, of course, they would take women and children hostage and drag them back into their hell inside if doing so would give them leverage to free their fellow Jews from torture and death! This thought, of course, set in motion an obvious but taboo moral question in my mind about one of the most pressing matters of our time: Is it understandable why people in Gaza, similarly trapped behind a wall in a concentration camp and experiencing genocide, would kill or take hostage people they found partying on the other side of the wall holding them in?’

JFK saved the entire world from utter annihilation. But other than that yes of course FDR is above and beyond. A fantastic war leader.

These two guys remind me of Beevis and Butthead so much. Imagine being so ideologically brain dead you can’t recognize most Americans to-this-day appreciate FDR despite his faults.. and FDR overseeing the US victory in WWII is a pretty big deal… still…

A very good president whose term was cut as short as was his life - only 46 years old. A life dedicated public service November 22 1963 -#JFK

This captures John & Jacqueline Kennedy as a couple on the day he died on 22 November 1963. Neither were ever comfortable with public displays of affection, but here they are, caught by camera, hand in hand, less than an hour before his death At Love Field Dallas #JFK
