„I‘m here to commemorate all the Aboriginal people who were murdered during the first stage of settlement,“ said one protester.

Tulsi Gabbard – Die Menschen in Syrien wollen verzweifelt Frieden
Während ein großer Teil Washingtons sich auf die Amtseinführung von Präsident Donald Trump vorbereitete, verbrachte ich die vergangene Woche auf einer Fact-finding-Mission (Informationstour) in Syrien und Libanon, um direkt von den Menschen in Syrien zu sehen und zu hören.

Aleppo: Medien nach Scheitern des „syrischen Bengasi-Plans“ verstummt
Wer Freunde hat wie die „Freunde Syriens“, braucht keine Feinde mehr. Auch nach der Befreiung Aleppos fließen westliche Hilfsmittel nur an die Islamisten. An den einfachen Menschen der Stadt, die sich ihre Normalität zurückerkämpfen, haben sie kein Interesse.
I was raised Catholic, became Episcopalian & found out later my family was Jewish. I stand ready to register as Muslim in #solidarity.

Palestinian MK injured ahead of home demolitions: ‚The police are liars‘
(19.1.2017) Although all evidence points to wounds from sponge-tipped bullets, police claim Joint List head Ayman Odeh was hit by stones thrown by Bedouin protesters in Umm el-Hiran. If the police are proven wrong, it means they shot the leader of the third-largest party in Israel in the face without any justification.
Ayman Odeh, der Vorsitzende der gemeinsamen linken Liste in Israel, wurde heute von der Polizei schwer verletzt:

Uncut Chronicles: Blood & Tears. Gaza August 2014
Israel and Gaza‘s ruling Hamas agreed to an open-ended ceasefire on August 26 after seven weeks of fighting – an uneasy deal that halted the Protective Edge operation, with more than 2,200 killed.

Israelischer Verteidigungsminister: Zerfallende EU nicht in der Position, uns zu schulmeistern
Für Territorien wie den Gazastreifen, in und um den es in den letzten Jahren mehrfach zu militärischen Eskalationen nach Raketenangriffen radikal-islamischer Palästinensergruppen auf israelische Städte gekommen war, könnte das auch einen Einmarsch von Bodentruppen bedeuten.
Wenn wir ein Viertel des Streifens einnehmen müssen, nehmen wir ein Viertel des Streifens ein“, erklärte Lieberman. „Wenn mehr nötig werden sollte, dann mehr.“
Die gesamte Führungsriege des State Department (US-Außenministerium) ist gerade zurückgetreten.

First they came for the Iranians
I don’t think anyone on earth can accuse me of secret sympathies for the Iranian government.
But when it comes to student visas, I can’t see that my feelings about the mullahs have anything to do with the matter. We’re talking about people who happen to have been born in Iran, who came to the US to do math and science. Would we rather have these young scientists here, filled with gratitude for the opportunities we’ve given them, or back in Iran filled with justified anger over our having expelled them?
To the Trump regime, I make one request: if you ever decide that it’s the policy of the US government to deport my PhD students, then deport me first.
Netanyahu in 1993: Iran will have bomb by 1999
(4.3.2015) The prime minister has been warning for over 20 years that Tehran is close to achieving its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
Netanyahu enters never-never land
(5.3.2015) Netanyahu declared that Washington should reject the current deal, demand that Tehran dismantle almost its entire nuclear program and commit never to restart it. In the world according to Bibi, the Chinese, Russians and Europeans will cheer, tighten sanctions, and increase pressure — which would then lead Iran to capitulate. “Dreams do come true, if only we wish hard enough,” said Peter Pan.
We have some history that can inform us on the more likely course.
Netanyahu: Trump understands ‚danger‘ of Iran nuclear deal
Benjamin Netanyahu said that in a conversation with Trump a few days ago, the U.S. president spoke „about Iran‘s commitment to destroy Israel.“
The 2015 deal between Iran and world powers imposed curbs on Tehran‘s nuclear program in exchange for lifting sanctions. Netanyahu has said the deal won‘t stop Iran from gaining nuclear weapons‘ capability, which he views as a threat to Israel‘s existence
Trumps Drohungen wegen Südchinesischem Meer verstärken Gefahr von Atomkrieg
Bei seiner Anhörung vor dem Senat knöpfte sich Tillerson China vor und verglich dessen Landgewinnung „mit der Annektierung der Krim durch Russland“. Das Aufschütten von Inseln durch China müsse aufhören, erklärte er, und fügte hinzu, dass „dem Land der Zugang zu diesen Inseln verwehrt“ werde.
Diese Äußerungen sind eine Kehrtwende gegenüber der bisherigen Haltung Washingtons, das sich zumindest nominell in Bezug auf die Gebietsstreitigkeiten neutral verhalten hatte, zugleich jedoch sein „nationales Interesse“ an der freien Schifffahrt im Südchinesischen Meer betonte. Unter der Obama-Regierung schickte die US-Navy dreimal provokativ Lenkwaffenzerstörer in die Zwölf-Meilen-Zone um kleine chinesische Inseln.
Die Trump-Regierung stellt jetzt direkt die Kontrolle Chinas über diese Inseln in Frage. Auf die Frage, wie die USA ihre Drohung, China den Zugang zu den Inseln zu verwehren, umsetzen wolle, sagte Spider, darüber werde man genauere Auskünfte geben, wenn sich die Lage weiterentwickle.
Is Trump ready for war in the South China Sea, or is his team just not being clear?
“It’s a question of if those islands are in fact in international waters and not part of China proper, then yeah, we’re going to make sure that we defend international territories from being taken over by one country.”
Experts had initially thought Tillerson might have misspoken, but Spicer‘s remarks appeared to raise the likelihood that the administration was indeed considering blocking China‘s access to its new islands in the Spratlys.
Flugverbotszone in Syrien: Plötzlich stellt sich Trump gegen Putin
Erst im Oktober hatte Russland im Uno-Sicherheitsrat eine von Frankreich eingebrachte Resolution verhindert, in der die Einrichtung einer Flugverbotszone in Nordsyrien gefordert wurde.
Entsprechend reserviert reagierte Wladimir Putins Sprecher Dimitrij Peskow auf Trumps Ankündigung. Das Weiße Haus habe den Kreml nicht vorab über die Pläne informiert. Die US-Regierung solle alle möglichen Konsequenzen bedenken, die eine Flugverbotszone mit sich brächte, mahnte Peskow.
Russia says no direct contacts yet between White House and Kremlin
„Contacts at the level of the administrations are not taking place at the moment, there haven‘t been any yet, such contacts are yet to be established,“ Peskov told a conference call with reporters.
Turkey says waiting to see outcome of Trump‘s Syria safe zones call
Turkey is waiting to see the outcome of U.S. President Donald Trump‘s pledge to order safe zones in Syria, and has long advocated such a plan, Turkish foreign ministry spokesman Huseyin Muftuoglu said on Thursday.
RESISTANCE IN PHILLY: FIGHTING FOR OUR LIVES
Fight for health care in Philadelphia!
When: On 11am on Thursday, January 26, rally with us to save our health care. Donald Trump and GOP leaders will be in town for a retreat, and we can’t let them ignore our message about the importance of our care.
Together, we made a big impact when we marched last weekend—don’t miss this next opportunity to take action.
Trump in Philly for GOP retreat: Live updates
11:39 a.m.: At the protest at Thomas Paine Plaza across from City Hall, much of the crowd is middle-aged or older. Far from anarchists, many in the group described themselves as concerned citizens somewhat puzzled and alarmed by what they see as a radical change in American politics.
A few said they remember the anti-war protests of the 1960s, in which the heads of government were also the subject of collective ire.
@POTUS will speak at today‘s #GOPretreat in Philadelphia alongside British Prime Minister @theresa_may. Watch here
