Another “conference-exhibition” in Modena, in the Emilia-Romagna region, focuses on the occupied Ukrainian city of Mariupol and is titled The Rebirth of Mariupol.
The website of the association Russia Emilia Romagna, which organised the event, describes Mariupol, which was the scene of a Russian siege that the Red Cross called “apocalyptic”, as a “symbolic city of the popular uprising in Donbas against Kyiv, now facing a rapid reconstruction process under the auspices of the Russian Federation, of which it has become an integral part”.

As the renowned journalist Chris Hedges once wrote, “Children have been shot in other conflicts I have covered, but I have never before watched soldiers entice children like mice into a trap and murder them for sport.” It is this level of depravity, this wanton disregard for human life, that has rightfully earned Israel the condemnation of the international community

Here’s the thing: they would do just fine. The most outrageous thing about this is, they don’t need a single penny.
I’m German and idk, one state here already started to include a new requirement in the process of application to become a German citizen: you must state your support for Israel.

My family lives in the neighboring state, Santa Catarina. The whole country is pretty shocked by this. There were also floods here in Germany, in Italy and i read about some more happening around the same time.
In Polyester, a John Waters movie, starring Divine, they handed out scratch & sniff cards. You were supposed to sniff at certain points in the movie. This was done by showing a number corresponding to the number to scratch.
Those were not your average nice smell scratch & sniff card.
Zombi Holocaust was shot on the other side of the world ( i think Maluku Islands ) , but it also has a great vibe. The almost sacrifice was great.
I worked for a few years in the Traumathek, an alternative video rental in the aughts - in Cologne, Germany. Right before DVDs started replacing VHS for good.
I miss the long movie talks with customers. One customer always stopped by when the new DS9 episode dropped, so we could watch it together at the store.
The video rental is still going, meanwhile renting mostly DVD and opening their space for movie screenings.
Edit: one of our main sources for buying uncensored versions of lots of movies, was Holland. Before the internet, Germany was much harder at censoring and most Italian classics were still banned.
You guys always had as much more open approach, to many things.
