  • Again, No. Algerian, by example, don’t recognize the State of Israel, and it’s not the only that not recognize it. I expect that they don’t accept their passports (but I can’t confirm it).

    Jordan historically has had a strange relation with Palestine and the PLO. A pro-Palestine population with their elites and monarchy fearing them. Then, I will be not surprised if they changed their mind with the recognition, that was done just after the Oslo accords.

    But my comment was to explain that I disagree with your claim that’s just fucking stupid to use quotes for ‘Israel’ and that the generalization you used to justify your position was not accurate.






  • But Spain’s leftwing labour minister and deputy prime minister, Yolanda Díaz, has blasted Trump’s plan in a video posted on Bluesky. “Trump and Netanyahu’s plan for Palestine isn’t a peace plan; it’s an imposition. It’s an ultimatum, dressed up as an agreement, which comes without any guarantees and without any timeframe for a Palestinian state,” she said.

    At least they have reported one political leader critical with those bullshit.

    Btw, it not cites the positon of any palestinian party.









  • Students have developed effective self-governance through student plenums or assemblies, where each student has the right to speak and all decisions are voted on. Ad hoc working groups are put in place to deal with various issues, from security and logistics to PR and legal questions.

    The university occupations function without a discernable leadership, alternating the representatives who speak to the public. They are adamant about their autonomy, vocally distancing themselves from all political parties and party politics, as well as from established civil society organisations and even informal groups.

    In doing so, they are creating a new political space and new means for the political to be enacted, breaking through the confines of ossified institutionalised politics and representative democracy.

    […] students in Serbia are fully controlling the institutions they have occupied while enjoying an overwhelming support of the public: around 80 percent of Serbian citizens support their demands.

    All my support for the students and the Serbian working class, I was not aware of their conflict. The struggle reminds me of the Spanish 15M and, a bit, the US Occupy Wall Street. I hope they have better luck.



  • Sorry for the poor quality of that response. But I did not have much time at the time, and it’s hard for me to write in English (it’s not my native language). I thought it was important to point out that in your post, well argued in general, you had introduced a statement without arguments that I don’t think fits reality.[1].

    Although this may be a licence to give more force to an argument, I find it especially alarming when this is aligned with the construction of a narrative to promote American imperialism —Yankee anti-imperialism as my subjective position— with an argument with a clearly racist bias —for example: removing the whiteness and Europeaness of ethnic Russians, inciting hatred of Asians, especially those of Han ethnicity and those of Chinese origin—. All of this promotes the fascist drift of the USA and its Western allies.

    In any case, and to clarify, I am not accusing you of doing so intentionally, but rather that these types of statements, which seem to me to be at the level of QAnon or flat-earthers, strengthen this fascist drift. BTW, I would have upvoted it without that phrase.


    1. Elon Musk lives in the USA, is a member of the US government, has not disagreed (or I am not aware of it) with the tariffs on China or Russia, most of his businesses are based in the USA, he has used the Skyline satellites concurrently with the geostrategic interests of the USA —at least in Ukraine and Iran—,… He could be a detestable human being and an opportunist politician, but their interests seem aligned with the new techno-aristocrat group of the states-unitians oligarchy-only party, now controlled by their Republican faction. ↩︎
