I wonder how many of these bastards have dual nationality and quietly return to Europe, without
being worried by the justice, after having committed massacres
‘Deeply worried’ : China
“The Chinese side… is deeply worried about the severe consequences that such actions might bring,” foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian said, calling “on relevant parties to take actions that promote regional peace and stability and to avoid further escalation of tensions”.
‘Reasonable reaction’: Czech Republic -
Czech Republic Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky said Iran “is supporting so many players, including the Hezbollah and Hamas movements, with the intention to destroy the state of Israel, and also seeking a nuclear bomb”, that “I see that this was a reasonable reaction from the state of Israel towards a possible threat of a nuclear bomb”.
Avoid any escalation’ : France
“We call on all sides to exercise restraint and avoid any escalation that could undermine regional stability,” France’s foreign minister Jean-Noel Barrot said on X.
No ‘battleground’: Jordan
“Jordan has not and will not allow any violation of its airspace, reaffirming that the Kingdom will not be a battleground for any conflict,” a government spokesperson told AFP after Jordan closed its airspace.
‘Aggressive actions’: Turkey
“Israel must put an immediate end to its aggressive actions that could lead to further conflicts,” Turkey’s foreign ministry said in a statement.
‘Legitimate right to defend itself’: Yemen’s Huthi rebels
Tehran-backed Huthi rebels said on Telegram they backed “Iran’s full and legitimate right to… develop its nuclear programme” and that “we strongly condemn the brutal Israeli aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran and affirm its full and legitimate right to respond by all possible means”.
It is obvious that Israel obtained its nuclear force without deceit, is led by democratically elected humanists and is now a haven of peace in the region. 😊
As if criminals capable of such despicable massacres, destabilization of the region and constant insults without ever being the target of tough international sanctions were going to listen to this.
Soft Fascism
World leaders : We strongly condemn it!
Basic human being : Will you finally impose tough economic sanctions, as you did for Russia?
World leaders : Uh, no… It’s going to be complicated
Basic human being : Are you going to do anything to stop this genocide?
World leaders : We have no proof of genocide and Bibi is our buddy.
Basic human being : Okay, are you going to take action to stop this massacre?
World leaders : Condemning this massacre is the strongest action we can take!
Basic human being : -_-…
What a piece of crap.
Poor fascists, I’m going to cry
“The Russians are asking for a certain set of requirements, a certain set of concessions in order to end the conflict. We think they’re asking for too much,” Vance said.
So surprising
The US and Western companies thus plan to invest billions of dollars in Congolese mines and infrastructure projects to support mining in both countries, including the processing of minerals in Rwanda.
Extractivism is a curse

Studying mathematics is a difficult but also rewarding activity. This requires having a positive relationship with the effort. By analogy we could compare this to sport. To give up practicing mathematics because it is difficult is equivalent to giving up sport because it tires.
For those interested in the education of mathematics, I would recommend this book by mathematician David Bessis.

According to a police summons dated Friday and seen by AFP, Chambers is accused of “insulting or showing malice towards the king, queen, heir to the throne, or regent”, as well as “introducing counterfeit computer data that could threaten national security”.
Chambers told AFP the charge stems from remarks he made during a webinar held last year in which he discussed the relationship between the Thai military and the monarchy during a question-and-answer session.
Textile and garment production accounts for about 80 percent of exports in Bangladesh and the industry has been rebuilding after it was hit hard in a student-led revolution that toppled the government last year.
US President Donald Trump hit Bangladesh with biting new tariffs of 37 percent on Wednesday, hiking duties from the previous 16 percent on cotton products.
Reports of the swift biting impact come as interim leader Muhammad Yunus pleaded with Trump to “postpone the application of US reciprocal tariff measures”, the government said in a statement.
Yunus wrote to Trump to ask for “three months to allow the interim government to smoothly implement its initiative to substantially increase US exports to Bangladesh”, the statement added.
Those products include “cotton, wheat, corn and soybean which will offer benefits to US farmers”, it read.
“Bangladesh will take all necessary actions to fully support your trade agenda,” Yunus told Trump, according to the statement.
Manufacturers said the impact had been near immediate.
Mohammad Mushfiqur Rahman, managing director of Essensor Footwear and Leather Products, said he received a letter from one of his buyers requesting a shipment halt.
“My buyer asked me to stop a shipment of leather goods – including bags, belts, and wallets – worth $300,000 on Sunday,” Rahman told AFP.
“We will follow the example of Martin Luther King, who defended civil rights,”
Facists have no limit 😂
Syrian state media said the strikes hit close to a defence research centre in Damascus, among other sites, while a war monitor reported four dead in the latest Israeli attack on Syria since Islamist-led forces ousted longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad.
“In a blatant violation of international law and Syrian sovereignty, Israeli forces launched airstrikes on five locations across the country,” the Syrian foreign ministry said in a statement on Telegram.
“This unjustified escalation is a deliberate attempt to destabilise Syria and exacerbate the suffering of its people.”
It said the strikes resulted in the “near-total destruction” of a military airport in central Syrian province Hama, injuring dozens of civilians and soldiers.
Syria’s SANA news agency reported a strike that “targeted the vicinity of the scientific research building” in Damascus’s northern Barzeh neighbourhood, and a raid in the vicinity of Hama, without specifying what was hit.
