Last weekend I activated Semaforo IS0/IS-266 (“Traffic Light”) on the island of Sardinia. This special hill hosts the ruins of a radio laboratory used by Marconi, who was born 150 years ago. #sardegna#hamradio#sota#italy#SummitsOnTheAir#PortableOps
One clear sign of how ignorant and immature the college protesters are is how they all don't seem to want to be held accountable for the crimes they committed.
I wish that our U.S. campuses would at least still assign students to read MLK's Letter from a Birmingham jail, and Thoreau's essay on Civil Disobedience.
I think these protesters have failed the guidelines of: collection of the facts to determine whether injustices exist; negotiation; self-purification; and effective direct action.
Everyone should try to take a 1930's perspective and mentally substitute #Israel by the #ThirdReich or #Mussolini's #Italy and Iran by an opposing Allied Power like the UK or the US.
After listening to this debate, the West's, including Israel's, position doesn't have that much standing anymore.
#Italy : A female singer in an outfit that makes me think of those reddish henna tattoos that was the shit a few years ago.
The song is a nice uptempo song, the singer has a decent voice, and there is a whole lot of flowers and some pyro on stage. Hey, its pretty nice! I would dig to this if I was driving in my car...!
Huge yachts, private planes, luxury villas and flashy cars. All belonging to Russian oligarchs whose assets in Italy have been frozen since the invasion of Ukraine two years ago, and, according to data collected by the European commission, this amounts to 2.3 billion euros.

#EU#Italy#PressFreedom#RAI#TV#Television#News#Media#Journalism: "An Italian union has called for political parties to be “eliminated from Rai” as journalists with the public broadcaster went on strike in protest against the “suffocating control” allegedly being wielded by Giorgia Meloni’s rightwing government over their work.
The ruling coalition has been accused of influencing programming, including censoring themes that are not in tune with its rightwing stance.
The strike on Monday came amid a growing debate in Italy about political influence in the media after Rai was accused of censoring an antifascism monologue that was due to be read on one of its TV talkshows by the high-profile author Antonio Scurati.
“This strike is in response to industrial themes … but also there is an aspect linked to the independence and autonomy of journalists,” Daniele Macheda, the president of Usigrai, the main union representing Rai journalists, told reporters in Rome. “Things have happened in Italy, also recently, that do not give us much hope in [the way] things are going.”
They are calling for “innovative ways” to address migration & migrant smuggling...such as increased cooperation between the EU and #NATO, and more #deportations
