My review of @MargotTudor book in @coldwarhistoryj is live. An excellent book on UN peacekeepers and peacekeeping as an actor in a rapidly decolonizing world! doi.org/10.1080/14682745.202…

Death brings blindness and deafness. Many communities in Nigeria remember him as the "Butcher of the North" for his scorched earth campaign in the Awka-Abagana-Onitsha region during the Nigerian-Biafran War and his brutal military regime from '83-'85. Let's not forget his victims

My union organizing grandma who stood bedside for over 30 years would slap you silly for thinking she never thought of her patients before deciding to go on strike.
What happens when nurses go on strike? Patients die.

Take one minute to consider that choosing to scab extends a strike and almost guarantees future strikes. Corps want you to scab so they can drain workers financially and mentally to accept a bad deal now. This process then happens again in 3-4 years. Scabbing hurts the public!
Replying to @lxeagle17
if trash isn’t getting picked up because you’re on strike, the best way to stop “scabs” is to just do your job. if you say the contracts aren’t fair, that’s your right, but don’t expect society to go to bat for your negotiations. people want the trash to be picked up.

We are appalled and saddened as Abdullah Hammad, who worked with us until 30 June, was killed yesterday in Gaza while trying to collect a bag of flour.  Israeli forces deliberately targeted a group of people waiting for aid trucks, killing at least 16. msf.org/msf-mourns-killing-t…

In “Lamine Senghor, Anti-Imperialism and Afro-Arab Solidarity in Interwar Paris,” Ba argues that the interwar period in Metropolitan France was an era of transnational and transracial coalition building amongst colonized people. Read now on our website! soufflesmonde.com/posts/lami…

I visited another @GHFUpdates food delivery sites today. Thousands of Gazans collecting the free aid they need. Almost 50 million meals delivered in the last month & now around 2 million a day. Don’t believe the lies.

Every. Single. Day. I watch Israelis admit to new atrocities. Genocide is painfully clear and gut-wrenching to witness.

A lot of people are asking what we see in this image. The two orange circles show where the impacts were, 3 holes at each circle making it 6 in total. There is no other visible damage. Image from @michaelh992

So...Israel can do deliberate, targeted strikes? What happened in the pager attacks across Lebanon? Gaza City? Khan Younis? Rafah? Every dumbfounded reaction is an admission of decades of Israeli ethnic cleansing, genocide, and war crimes across the Levant.
If you can’t see the difference by now, then there’s no point in explaining.

There are numerous histories of blockade runners delivering food and medical supplies to civilians from Biafra to Darfur when IHOs fail. His logic simultaneously curbs all humanitarian aid to war zones and political control of it. It's justifying mass starvation of people.
As predicted, the show's over. An external sea vessel couldn't enter the territorial waters of an area under ferocious combat conditions. So, what was achieved by this stunt? The suffering of Gaza persists, nothing has changed thanks to European activists' self-righteousness!

Israel has designated the majority of the Gaza Strip for evacuation. 34 evacuation orders have been issued to civilians in Gaza since the dissolution of the ceasefire on 18 March 2025. Many of these orders define differing boundaries for the militarised buffer zone in the east of Gaza, gradually expanding the area designated for evacuation. See more: frames.forensic-architecture…

Maybe...don't justify the murder of humanitarian actors in clandestine or conventional military strikes. It's a pretty easy standard to avoid crossing.
