February 2014. Maidan Square, Kyiv. John McCain filming the protests, standing shoulder to shoulder with US Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt, while Victoria Nuland stands just behind them. A striking snapshot of Washington’s direct involvement in Ukraine’s political upheaval. The same officials who spoke so confidently about democracy were right there amid the turmoil surrounding the removal of a democratically elected president. This raises an uncomfortable question: was this truly about defending Ukrainian democracy, or about Washington advancing its own geopolitical agenda at Ukraine’s expense?

Por si no entendéis el francés, lo que esta señora viene a decir es: "Eh, que os equivocáis. Estoy con vosotros y apoyo vuestra causa, pero esta es mi tienda". La revolución siempre es más dolorosa cuando el cuello que está en la guillotina es el propio.

🚨🇫🇷 Holy sh*t... "They came prepared. They had the addresses of town halls. They had addresses of Jewish shop owners. In a street in Marseille, all businesses owned by Jews were set on fire. Businesses run by Muslims weren’t." (French journalist Paul Amar) Writer: Michael x.com/JeremBenhaim/status/21…

Dat meen je niet

Rioters in Marseille torched all the Jewish owned shops, while intentionally not attacking the Muslim owned shops. Tell me again how this is about “students”?

Story of Europe in nutshell

Pour moi, c'est l'image la plus horrible de ce 17 octobre: Un couple d'octogénaire dépouillé de tout, en pleine rue, laissé à moitié nu. Comme si les Rolex, les Vuiton, les Hermès, les Dior, les Sephora pillés n'étaient pas suffisants pour la revente. L'image qui devrait être un signal d'alarme pour tout l'occident. L'image d'un pseudo président qui a perdu le contrôle. Qui a totalement échoué envers son peuple. L'image d'une gauche radicale qui a sacrifié votre propre identité pour faire de votre pays une zone de guerre, aux arrières-plans culturels qui n'ont rien à voir avec les vôtres. Cette image est effrayante!

The Coen Brothers made THE ODYSSEY long before Christopher Nolan. O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? (2000) is one of the funniest and most inventive modern retellings of Homer’s epic ever put on screen.

Encapuchados irrumpieron en la alcaldía de Marsella y destrozaron este busto de La Marianne, figura de la libertad y símbolo oficial de la República Francesa. Verla rota, tirada, con el rostro contra el suelo, es hoy una metáfora de la decadencia en la que se encuentra Francia.

The stories @BBCWorld somehow just doesn't see.

Watched multiple livestreams out of Paris today and posted some of them. Across the footage, not a single police officer. Not one police car. Zero enforcement of basic public order while the streets were being torn apart. Whoever gave the orders for law enforcement to stand down is actively choosing to let Paris burn.

Congratulations, your Intifada has been globalized 🔥

Voor iedereen die echt denkt dat Rusland de schuld van alles is..... Deze opname helpt je uit de droom en geeft dus eindelijk eens aan HOE het ZIT! Dit is wat de media niet WIL dat wij het WETEN! Al die miljarden worden gewoon van ons gestolen!

My daughter has a book on the ancient Egyptians and has been quite animated by it so we took her to Kelvingrove Museum to see their mummy. Except, it’s no longer there. All ‘human remains’ gone with the following sign up in place of exhibits that have been there for years.

I was reporting when THIS happened 😳🚨

BREAKING: Palestinians themselves just shattered the media narrative that Israeli ‘settlers’ randomly attacked innocent olive harvesters. They’re so proud of their attack that they just released a video of them undertaking it.

Met de juiste bril voorkom je een troebele blik.
