The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent
— Hanna Notte (@HannaNotte) February 29, 2024
Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

Location: U.S. Embassy and residential compounds
Events: Heavy gunfire is occuring around the area of the U.S. Embassy and residential compounds adjacent to the Trutier area of Tabarre. All Embassy personnel have been instructed to remain indoors and shelter-in-place until further notice. All others should avoid the area.
Actions to take:
- Avoid the area;
- Avoid demonstrations and any large gatherings of people;
- Do not attempt to drive through roadblocks; and
- If you encounter a roadblock, turn around and get to a safe area.

A mass expulsion of Afghan migrants could destabilize the region and fuel radicalization. The West should pressure Islamabad to change course.
All eyes on #Chad right now
Chad has two internet trunks coming into the country: One from the Red Sea via Sudan; the other from Cameroon. Not possible for the totality of the country's internet network to be shut unless done centrally. A lot of rumors swirling; few facts. https://t.co/N6bDJZ2ixO

Thinking of the actual hate crime committed in the video at the top of this thread while I read of Jussie Smollet bitching about his sentence for creating a fake hate crime for attention purposes, and all the many people supporting his bitching because he already supposedly paid for his "error".
by artappraiser on Tue, 03/15/2022 - 1:21pm
P.S. The race baiters are out in force commenting on Smollett as they often do with others. One of the common false arguments to reinforce their belief in systemically racist justice system that I see is that "look at the Jan. 6 rioters, they are getting hand slaps because they are white." I just ran across another example that is simply not true.
plus they are expressing guilt and remorse; lots of garden-variety urban criminals don't ever bother to do that, they think they are owed mulligans for criminal behavior because they were born poor or some such reason

how can one not use the word 'predators' when the perps themselves proudly film and share?! they're proud of it!
they've been reading comments on this video by parent types on News 12 Bronx, they're all freaking out, i.e., they should all be locked up, their parents should turn them in or they're lost, etc.

Glorifying the culture of rapper shot dead, very gruesomely, as in SICKO
REALLY, it really happened -
even tho "Moses" claims above that he didn't aks for that, makes sense to me, as when he was living, looks like he loved to glorify the live-fast-and-dangerously-and-die-young culture, including dissing authorities -
