To speak of justice today is to name the catastrophe of 1948 and to recognise that no future can be built on forgetting. Freedom and https://t.co/8vkAFsy16V #Nakba78 #Justice #Memory #IL #PS

On the 78th Anniversary of the Nakba – 15 May 2026 Seventy-eight years ago, Britain committed one of the most catastrophic acts of colonial injustice in modern history. With the stroke of a pen, the British government disposed of a land it had no right to give – uprooting an #Nakba78 #ColonialInjustice #RightToReturn #GB #IL

(TR) And the levies (of the banks that you saved so that they can be given to foreign predators to plunder you) continue to increase!

(TR) We demonstrated today in Lod, Jews and Arabs together, against the crime and violence raging in the streets. This is not a coincidence or culture - it is a policy.

In order to declare outright that although they do not agree with me on everything, they enjoyed our conversation on "The Rest Is Politics," the most important political podcast in Britain, something must have been said correctly. In their own words, with "academic credibility," "without selling something old." (Original: Για να δηλώνουν ευθέως ότι παρότι δεν συμφωνούν μαζί μου σε όλα, το ευχαριστήθηκαν που μιλήσαμε στο "The Rest Is Politics", το σημαντικότερο πολιτικό podcast της Βρετανίας, κάτι θα ειπώθηκε σωστά.

Tonight on OPEN tv, we discussed (besides why I did not legitimize SKAI's 'documentary') the oil populism of ND, the legitimized corruption, the wiretaps, as well as how MeRA25 understands the cooperation of progressive forces. (Original: Στο OPEN tv σήμερα το βράδυ συζητήσαμε (πέραν του γιατί δεν νομιμοποίησα το 'ντοκιμαντέρ' του ΣΚΑΙ) τον πετρελαϊκό λαϊκισμό της ΝΔ, την νομιμοποιημένη διαφθορά, τις υποκλοπές, καθώς και το πως κατανοεί το ΜέΡΑ25 την συνεργασία προοδευτικών δυνάμεων https://t.co/RvQwl7v9s6) #Corruption #PoliticalDiscussion #ProgressiveForces #GR

BREAKING: The Israeli naval vessel that abducted the 180 Sumud Flotilla crews off the coast of Crete (an act of piracy and a gross violation of the Law of the Sea) is intend on victimising two of them: Saif Abukeshek, a Spanish citizen of Palestinian origin, and Thiago Ávila, a #MaritimeLaw #HumanRights #InternationalRelations

Just spoke to friends on the Global Sumud Flotilla. Israeli vessels & drones are harassing them off the coast of Crete. The Greek gvt is either complicit or incapable of defending our seas from Israel. So much for Freedom of Navigation & Int. Law #FreedomOfNavigation #InternationalLaw #MaritimeSecurity
