we bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade but it was an 'oopsie you changed the address on us'. nothing really happened in response.

Fun fact about that bombing, it was the CIA and not the Air Force that planned it.

I think it is useful to note that this episode is unusual because the CIA does not normally assemble, on its own, target nomination packages containing the coordinates of specific installations or buildings. The targeting support typically provided by CIA is usually at the strategic and planning level, such as analytical judgments on the kinds of targets that are the most important, commentary or specific information concerning targets selected by the military or others, and information that assists the military in identifying future targets.

They lost in Gaza and might see salvation in a regional war and they are confident all these dumbass countries like the US, UK, and Germany will support them.

wait is "shut up" short for "shut up shop"

im reeling now. gently caress britain.

'Shut up' in the sense of 'to close up' goes back in English at least as far as the king james bible. Pretty sure 'shut up shop' is just another example of this and 'shut up' (your mouth) is too, related but one doesn't precede from the other.

An early example of the sense of 'be quite' from Kipling I think makes this clear.

the global south and much of the arab world has extremely pissed off populations, and at least in several global north/western countries the ruling party is at risk at losing power over this

I think there are true believers who care that the universalism they were taught is a sham, because they're either too young or too ignorant of history to realize this is part of a pattern, and the rest is to try to appease their pissed off population.

FUNDRAISING INFO POST, SORRY FOR THE LENGTH

I have seen people asking about fundraisers in the past, and I found this one Arab blogger who put together a masterpost of Gazan fundraisers they have been able to vet by actually talking with the people behind them. Scammers who were not even able to speak Arabic or pass a basic background check were not highlighted.

quote:

Fundraiser masterpost

This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.

These are generally easy enough to find by appending "GoFundMe" to the names in a google search. The blogger is "el-shab-hussein" on tumblr but their blog is set to private so you need an account to view it.

Also, there's another Palestinian blogger who has been able to establish a fundraising pipeline with her friends and relatives in Gaza. Their hastily-assembled operation has been able to provide food to some hundreds of people in the past few months, and provided proof of it besides. Some of the updates she has provided:

quote:

There are a couple new updates that go along with this this proof of purchase update. But first!

With your donations, Hussam managed to put together 500 bags of 25 Kilo flour for refugees in Rafah! This is truly amazing and we couldn�t have done it without your help!

Not only that, but he also managed to find 500 bags of dried milk (0.9 kilos each bag).

quote:

Today, Hussam and his team in Rafah were busy sorting and packaging vegetables. They managed to put 200 packages, each with 10kilo of vegetables (potatoes, eggplants, lemon, jalape�os, tomatoes, and cucumber) and 3 packs of feta cheese for each family.

A few days ago, Hussam also bought diapers, soaps, and buckets to distribute to families with babies. All your donations go directly to Hussam. He still is able to withdraw cash from limited money sources but with high fees due to shortage of cash throughout Gaza. He now pays 15% in fees, which might increase in time. Please keep up the good work in spreading the word and donating.

quote:

Hussam and his team put together a joyful event for the kids in Rafah camps and wanted to share it with all of us here on Tumblr! This included games, songs, competitions, and face painting all of which the kids adored, and even the adults joined in on the good times. They were beyond happy to see their little ones having fun!

Thanks thank you so much everyone for supporting Hussam�s efforts in Rafah, as you can see you�re bringing a bit of joy to children�s lives. Hussam said everyone was on cloud nine with the amount of fun they were having.

finally, tomorrow April 12th at 4PM EST, videogame streamer wayneradiotv will launch a 3-day marathon fundraising stream, spotlighting Gazan fundraising efforts. He and his team have had no trouble raising $100,000+ on previous 24-hour charity marathon streams for RAICES and No Kid Hungry, so it should end up amounting to quite a bit of something!

quote:

This weekend, Radio TV Solutions will be holding a 3 day marathon fundraiser event for the people of Palestine.
All weekend long, we will be streaming a variety of games and events in an effort to raise money for on-the-ground aid groups and direct Palestinian support campaigns.

The event will not be a traditional stream fundraiser, rather than pointing people at one donation point, we will be suggesting many different support recipients, and you may donate to any of them. You can then submit your donation amount to be tallied into our rough total.

The information document detailing suggested groups/campaigns to support will open up closer to when the event starts, as well as a schedule of events for the weekend. The event will be hosted on my twitch channel, where http://stream.rtvsfundraiser.live/ links to.

Lastly, if you know of any GoFundMe�s or similar site campaigns for Palestinians that you trust as legitimate, please send an e-mail to info@rtvsfundraiser.live with links and details, and I will add as many as I can to the event document.

Please tune in and support however you can, whether that be through donations, spreading the word, anything and everything helps. Even if you can�t or don�t want to tune in, please consider donating. See you this weekend!

Do be mindful of Twitch's dumb "civility" requirements and such if you join, who knows if people saying DTI and DTA in chat could get the stream in trouble. Saying Free Palestine and using watermelon emojis never hurt anyone though.

Canadian officials are saying little publicly about the state of the Canadian Embassy in Damascus, Syria, a week after an Israeli bomb or missile demolished an Iranian Embassy annex next door.

A source at Global Affairs Canada (GAC)�told CBC News that Canada's embassy building sustained damage in the April 1 airstrike, including the destruction of at least some of its windows. Officials have not yet been able to assess the building for structural damage.
...
Foreign Affairs Minister M�lanie�Joly told reporters that Canada was not warned in advance.

"What I can tell you is indeed we have an embassy in Syria that was not occupied because we've closed this embassy, and indeed it is an embassy that has been damaged," Joly said, adding that she can't go into further details for security reasons.

Canadian diplomats and other personnel,�including RCMP officers, have entered Syria on several occasions since the embassy was closed. It's not clear whether they used the embassy as a base of operations.

The GAC source told CBC News the embassy building remains the property of the Government of Canada.

Right wingers picking now to be anti-Israel is really loving aggravating knowing that these were the same people who wanted to glass the Middle East 20 years ago and supported Israel every step of the way, until they got bored of doing the war of civilizations on Islam and wanted to move on to persecuting trans people.

Maybe that's their beef with Iran.
