« Pourquoi un mouvement de défense des sciences et contre l’obscurantisme en France adopte un titre en anglais ? En lisant l’appel publié sur le site, on comprend vite la raison. »

“During the Algerian War of Independence, the French launched a campaign to “liberate” Algerian women from the veil, parading unveiled women in propaganda ceremonies while simultaneously brutalising and raping them in detention centres.
The French, of course, were never concerned about gender equality in Algeria (…)”

Haven't done one of those in a long time ! In these:
- a new fantasy movie from China, overall unconvincing,
- an early work of a dear old master, recently departed,
- two films about keeping good spirits in a very shitty context, one fiction and one documentary.

From the pov of Palestinian liberation, you could be quite critical of ‘No Other Land’, but on the other hand it’s a good film to show to people obsessed with ‘KHAMAS BAAAD’ I guess.

“Nato removed questions of war and peace from the equations of democratic governance. The EU, in turn, evolved to do the same for decisions about spending. Its founding mythos (…) obscured its function: to consolidate a capitalist bloc that could extract wealth from the global South, throttle Europe’s social democratic compact and insulate its elites from popular accountability (…) Today, the material pillars of that order are collapsing.”

The James Bond novels and movies were among other things (like indulgent fantaisies for men) a way for Great Britain to feel comfortable, reassured about their influence after the winding down of the empire.

In current times, the passing of the 007 icon from the UK to the US does feel very symbolic isn’t it ?

Question: imagine that your european country, in five years or so, enters a nasty civil conflict (death squads, non-functioning services, police surveillance etc). One of your neighboring countries is in the same case, the USA is worse. You can move, although you need access to normal (for you) medical care.

Where’d you go then, and why ?

Des fois un rien me fait toujours rire. Cette fois-ci c’était un titre de presse. Imaginez-vous déclamer les nouvelles à un public intéressé, peut-être anxieux. Vous prenez une grande inspiration, vous plongez la tête vers votre liste et d’une grande voix vous informez le monde que :

Sometimes I strongly miss the weekly column of Uri Avnery, who co-founded Gush Shalom and did many other things, like visiting Arafat when it was a big, big taboo.

His columns followed the news of the time until his passing in 2018, I can’t recall one that would specifically applied to the here and now, but for the curious, here are some (most ?) of them: http://zope.gush-shalom.org/home/en/channels/avnery
