Get into the car in the morning and drive through France into Belgium on the way to the Netherlands. And the only sign of change of country is a sign along the road that I almost missed. Nobody checked our (German) IDs and we did not need a passport.

Living in the #EU, we tend to take it for granted that we can easily cross borders. But it's an wonder, an achievement, something worth fighting for.

#Europa #Europe

@vicgrinberg It is with regret that humanity has not advanced to the point where fighting is not necessary. We need a global community where differences are resolved in a more human manner. War is hell, and should be avoided at all costs. There is no glory in war.

In the 13 months since the US ended the public health emergency on May 11, 2023, more Americans have been killed by COVID than died in the eight years of the Vietnam War (which was the US's fourth most deadly war following the Civil War, WW1 and WW2).

COVID deaths since May 11, 2023: 61,070

US deaths in Vietnam from 1965 to 1973: 58,281

I ran a little survey over the past week, to see which problems people were facing on , and I must say the results surprised me!

We got 3300 answers, on the general skill level, hardware or software problems, most problematic areas, the terminal, the community, the ease of finding online help, and more! So, here are my conclusions:

Macron urges Abbas to 'reform' Palestinian Authority with 'prospect of recognition'

French President Emmanuel Macron urged Palestinian Authority chief Mahmoud Abbas to "implement necessary reforms," offering the "prospect of recognition of the state of Palestine" during a phone call on Wednesday, May 29, his office said.

Bosnian Serbs withdraw proposed ‘foreign agent’ law

“Since the Republika Srpska is committed to the European path, we agreed to withdraw it (the bill) and additionally harmonise it with the laws that some European countries have and… bring it in line with European legal practise,” Dodik said on X, formerly Twitter.

@eunews I actually agree with the foreign agent law. But apparently the problem is that the law signifies Russia in some manner. Unfortunately the espionage community will use these NGO's as havens. The maneuver itself is not worthy of International coverage or massive protests. There is something else going on.

Europe is distancing their leadership role from America in such a way as to benefit all mankind. I pray for success.

Israel’s military is tipping off far-right settler terrorists to the location of aid trucks delivering vital supplies to Gaza to block delivery.

This. Is. A. War. Crime.

Israel is claiming “Hamas” is diverting aid. That is a claim all relief agencies reject. US officials also state Israel has offered no evidence to support allegations that Hamas is diverting aid.

Imagine being more upset at ICC for prosecuting this than at the famine its enabling: https://t.co/t9umHxFsUQ

Teop_Versant,

@QasimRashid Then the settlers are culpable. But more likely than not they are being empowered by the state to save their own settlements. Blackmail by proxy. The settlers, like Palestine - need someplace to live.

"The ICC prosecutor said on Monday he had applied for arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant for crimes including "wilful killing", "extermination and/or murder", and "starvation" during the war in Gaza."
Hamas-""bear criminal responsibility" for actions committed during the October 7 attack."
