Pour élaborer un petit peu le pourquoi cette histoire me tend autant (et aussi faire un peu d'introspection en public, dans l'espoir que ça puisse servir à d'autres, même si, désolé, ça va être très long), soyons très clairs: (1/79)
Suite à ça, un petit thread #123-Bashar-wa-bass sur la cantatrice Soumaya Hallak. Mme Hallak doit être libre de ses opinions: même si ses amis l'ôtent à d'autres, c'est son droit le plus strict. Par contre, les médias ont un devoir de contextualisation, et le droit de s'abstenir.

There can be no peace with russia. Full stop. Let's stop saying otherwise, spreading nonsense. It's high time for Western leaders to grow up.

One of the most terrifying images you'll ever see (and no, not because of what happened in the fight).

"No pardon or forgiveness. Your return (ex-Regime) is an insult to the blood of the martyrs". After Kafranbel banners denouncing Regime war crimes and the International silence, banners are now denouncing the flaws of the transitional justice. It reflects a broader wave of popular anger, with protests spreading from Idlib to Deir Ezzor, demanding accountability for all Regime elements who committed crimes, rather than selective arrests. While the current arrest campaign appears to be a deliberate Government choice - prioritizing emblematic figures over large scale detentions in attempt to preserve the civil peace - it's also indirectly fueling further tensions. In areas where communities endured years of Regime war crimes, anger is increasingly growing and could lead to an uptick of violence, including mobs and assassinations.
#Syria: delayed and partial transitional justice is fueling growing popular anger. Protests erupted past ~24h in several areas demanding expulsion of those who collaborated or fought with Assad's Regime. Video from S. Idlib countryside. #Aleppo witnessed same situation: x.com/zamanalwsl/status/2065… It comes amid a renewed wave of killings targeting former Regime elements, most of whom were low-level fighters who were left free - while the arrests focus on emblematic figures.

There's an easy way to end it. Next time they drive their country to collapse, don't bail them out. Let them suffer. Don't protect their territorial integrity. Encourage separatism.
In a new book, Mark B. Smith not only pushes back against the idea that the Soviet collapse guaranteed Putin’s rise to power, but also that Russia is stuck in an unending cycle of authoritarianism. foreignpolicy.com/2026/06/12…

This is the Israeli military justification for attacking a Lebanese army patrol inside Leb territory - ‘the area is an active combat zone, and movement in the area requires coordination with the IDF’ The Israeli military is demanding Leb troops asks its permission to move around its own country 🧵

Il se plaint (à juste titre) des files d'attente "incroyables" à Disneyland. Il veut "vomir" après un mauvais restaurant à Florence. Et on le pense juste comme un énième touriste bougon. Pourtant, Aleksei Kolotilov ne devrait pas être là. Il est le créateur d'un programme 1/

Maybe journalists on the cyber beat (bonjour @Anouch) should start asking @andyyen if sponsoring far right French activists while censoring user discussion on it is part of his foundation's missions,and if not,how his governance structure protects from it. mastodon.green/@koos/1167081…

One more thing that might raise eyebrows is that either @VincLapierre is lying about the nature of the financial arrangement, or @ProtonPrivacy is. Is it "@ProtonMail a choisi de mettre fin à son partenariat avec moi" or "a single video sponsorship, not a partnership"?

Both standards publicly voiced by @andyyen are very flawed. "Legality": well, Godwin point but the 1935 Nuremberg laws were legal. "Divisiveness": homosexual sex is divisive enough to be a capital crime in,for example,Uganda. Does Yen thus believe in defunding LGBTQ creators?

A theory voiced by one of my contacts tonight: All this talk of discussions with russia being pushed by certain European leaders is just a charade intended for the Americans. They aren’t that stupid: they know it would lead nowhere and there’s nothing to discuss. Hope he’s right.

Hikvision is part owned by the PRC & supplies 60% of UK public bodies w CCTV cameras. Cameras from Hikvision & Dahua are in 73% of local authorities, 35% of police forces, and 63% of schools in the UK. This is a huge problem which no one is talking about. ft.com/content/6f4d806c-eb22…

I’m loving this sort of thing. For years, Russia has been yelling about “Ukrainian Nazis,” the “Kyiv junta,” the “protection of the people of Donbas,” the “NATO threat,” and “we didn’t start this war, Ukraine attacked us.” And then, as if nothing happened, Russian officials openly and publicly threaten Armenia with a “Ukrainian scenario” if its pro-Western government, which has been confidently re-elected, continues moving closer to the European Union and European countries.

Tankies: now that Ukraine has taken out the Black Sea Fleet, you can't call Russia an empire any more.
Only final dismantling (due to #decolonization & #deimperialization) of so-called "Russian Federation" and full independence for all 41 independent states of #PostRussianSpaces💪 p.s. example of the collapse of #USSR🤮 was best thing that happened in second part of XX century, not only to all of its citizens (except for a few percent of the "beneficiaries" of the late Soviet era, represented by the nomenklatura🤮, #KGB🤮🤮🤮, Komsomol members🤮, "military pensioners"🤮, "internationalist soldiers"🤮🤮🤮, "profsous leaders"🤡 & other "red castes"), not only to all of its neighbors, but also to the entire world, globally💯 #MakeMoscoviaSmallAgain ✌️ #PostRussia #DecolonizationRF #MoscoviaDelendaEst 🔥

Subtle yet crucial messages that I fully agree with, notably this one. "The final London Declaration (1941) was not about ending a war. It was about uniting those willing to win it and shape the peace that followed. One can only hope today’s meeting is guided by the same logic."
Today, Zelenskyy, Starmer, Macron, and Merz meet in London. The format itself is worth welcoming, even if the EU has once again been left on the sidelines. The real question is what mindset the E3 brings to the table. Zelenskyy set the tone with his open letter to Putin. While his European partners likely share its substance, they are unlikely to be ready to openly put their signatures beneath it. But they do see that Russia is not looking for middle ground. It is set on war. Seeking a balanced compromise with an aggressor committed to conquest is not diplomacy. It is self-deception. The predecessors of today’s leaders understood this well. Symbolically, eighty-five years ago, London hosted another gathering. In June 1941, representatives of fourteen Allied governments and liberation movements met there to unite against Nazism. The final London Declaration was not about ending a war. It was about uniting those willing to win it and shape the peace that followed. One can only hope today’s meeting is guided by the same logic. Europe’s prosperity depends on its security. Europe’s security depends on Ukraine. It is time to turn that truth into effective policy. And fast.
