We cannot say this enough: giving in to Russian demands to let them keep illegally obtained sovereign Ukrainian land, including Crimea, will not ensure lasting peace!

If Russia wins this war, this will only be the start of bigger wars to come.

In regards to Dutch Joker Poker, I can explain with this that the IP’s of DJP I previously had under my pass-through company but afterwards (with a licensing deal) sold that too to TDG, so that’s why I’m saying I don’t know when the cards will be produced because now TDG has other priorities 😎

For the ones following this journey; it’s a small change, and now even using a newly learned word for the intro of the legacy horizon slide, but I went with this approach to explain how Tiiendemanns Group started and the long term vision I have for it 😊

The Legacy Horizon slide with the new title: A Foundation Built for Permanence. We don't just plan for the next exit. We are building the institutional infrastructure to steward the circular economy for the next 1000 years.

Just “stumbled” on these as I haven’t seen them for years already, and now my urge to go play Dutch Joker Poker came full-blown back 😭

But no, unfortunately can’t dedicate time to organize a regular event for this anymore, at least not for the foreseeable future 😏

But feel feel to try it out, if..
What is Dutch Joker Poker? In Dutch Joker Poker, you play poker with a twist. Where there are normally two jokers in a game of joker poker, Dutch Joker Poker has three to six. You decide with how many Jokers you play the game. These Jokers can pretend to be all cards. You can play Dutch Joker Poker with any existing poker variant. And at the underside of the image you can see the 6 Jokers in the ranking order from highest to lowest ranked Jokers: Orange Willem, Purple Peter, Blue Bas, White Wim, Red Rick and Black Barry. Rules of Dutch Joker Poker 1. All the Jokers can pose as any of the normal cards. 2. You decide with how many Jokers you play. The minimum amount is three; the maximum is all six. Your selection of Jokers always includes Orange Willem. 3. Black Barry can pose as any other Joker, as long as it's not played against that Joker. Thus, you can make an Orange Willem hand with a Black Barry posing as an Orange Willem, as long as none of the other hands contain an Orange Willem. 4. The highest hand possible is a Five-of-a-Kind with Queens (instead of Aces). This rule is only true for the Five-of-a-Kind, not for the other hands. There, the Ace is the highest card. 5. You can make an Orange Willem hand by making a Royal Flush with the Orange Willem as the Ace. An Orange Willem cannot contain any other Jokers: this would simply make it a Royal Flush. 6. When players end with the same hand and the same number of Jokers, the ranking of the Jokers decides the vinner. When players end with the same hand but a different number of Jokers, the player with the least number of Jokers wins. A hand of the same ranking and card level with no Jokers, or less Jokers than the other players, always wins.

What Israel is doing to the Palestinians is in itself an anti-Jewish act because it breaks the trust of people in Jewish people.

That is/was not what she was arguing, so stop spreading misinformation Malcolm!

She was arguing the semantics that the UN needs to conform to only de jure labeling of genocide. Also, she wasn’t “the expert” only one of the experts on Genocide at the UN.

Lastly, any “anti-woke” media is garbage.
The Free Press (The FP) "Thefp" refers to The Free Press, an American media company founded in 2021 by journalist Bari Weiss (formerly of The New York Times). The publication markets itself as an independent, centrist, or "anti-woke" alternative to mainstream legacy media. It covers culture, politics, and current events, often highlighting stories it claims are ignored or distorted by other outlets due to ideological narratives. The URL you provided is for an article by Johanna Berkman, a contributor to The Free Press (and Air Mail). Alice Wairimu Nderitu Alice Wairimu Nderitu is a Kenyan diplomat who served as the United Nations Special Adviser on the Prevention of Genocide from 2020 until late 2024. Here is a summary of the situation involving her departure: • Employment Status: Her contract was not renewed by UN Secretary-General António Guterres in November 2024, effectively ending her tenure. • The Controversy: Nderitu faced intense internal and external pressure regarding the Israel-Hamas war. Unlike other UN officials and human rights experts who explicitly labeled Israel's actions in Gaza as "genocide" or "plausible genocide," Nderitu refused to make that designation. • She maintained that the legal determination of genocide can only be made by a competent court of law (such as the International Court of Justice), not by her office.

Pro-Palestinian groups and some human rights organizations criticized her for "dereliction of duty" and failing to issue sufficient warnings about the risk of genocide in Gaza. • Recent Claims: In interviews (including with Johanna Berkman for Air Mail and The Free Press), Nderitu has claimed she was pushed out for refusing to bow to political pressure to declare a genocide in Gaza without a court ruling. She has described the environment as hostile, stating she was "bullied" and "hounded day in, day out" for not toeing a specific political line. The article you linked likely details this narrative: her refusal to use the "genocide" label for Gaza, the resulting backlash from UN colleagues and activists, and the subsequent non-renewal of her contract, which she and her supporters view as a politically motivated firing.

If it ever becomes de jure I want to see how you’ll react to that fact.

Also, being anti-oppression and being against the extremist regime of Netanyahu is not anti-jewish, on the contrary even, more pro-jewish you cannot be!

The chief of the general staff, Eyal Zamir, said Israel would hold on to its current military positions. These give Israel control of more than half of Gaza, including most agricultural land and the border crossing with Egypt. "The 'yellow line' is a new border line, serving as a forward defensive line for our communities and a line of operational activity," Zamir said during a visit to meet Israeli reservists in northern Gaza, where he also visited the ruins of the Palestinian towns of Beit Hanoun and Jabaliya. "We have operational control over extensive parts of the Gaza Strip and we will remain on those defence lines," Zamir said, according to an English-language transcript of his remarks provided by a military spokesperson. Palestinians were forced out of this eastern portion of Gaza by Israeli attacks and evacuation orders. Almost all the surviving population, over 2 million people, are now crowded into a narrow zone of coastal sand dunes that is smaller than Washington DC.

@malcolm, because words do matter and because I do think you mean well, I’m giving you with this more context why I too believe you’re choosing to defend an ignorant, socially unjust stance.

The genocide might not be de jure but there is no denying there is a de facto intend behind their actions!
Evaluating Genocide Claims in Gaza Malcolm P. Johnson @admiralmpj.bsky.... 8m MOST OF THE POPULATION OF GAZA STILL Now vou want to make an accusstion of the IDF committing War Crimes? I'll listen to that. Did too many Civilians die as a result of this war? Yeah. definitely? Of starvation? That's proven. Was it a Genocide?

What's your critical reaction to Malcolm, based on objective evaluation of the situation in Gaza? Analysis and 1 more Based on an objective evaluation of international law and the current situation in Gaza, Malcolm's argument contains a significant logical contradiction and a fundamental misunderstanding of what constitutes genocide. Here is a critical breakdown of his claims: 1. The "Numbers" Fallacy ("Most of the population... still alive") Malcolm's central premise is that because the majority of Gazans are still alive, genocide cannot be happening. This is legally incorrect. • Definition: Under the 1948 UN Genocide Convention, genocide is defined as acts committed with intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group "in whole or in part." It does not require the extinction of the entire group. • Historical Precedent: The Srebrenica maccacre (1995) was ruled a genocide by international courts. Approximately 8,00 sniak men and boys were killed, while the Evaluating Genocide Claims in Gaza 1. The "Numbers" Fallacy ("Most of the population.. still alive") Malcolm's central premise is that because the majority of Gazans are still alive, genocide cannot be happening. This is legally incorrect. • Definition: Under the 1948 UN Genocide Convention, genocide is defined as acts committed with intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group "in whole or in part." It does not require the extinction of the entire group. • Historical Precedent: The Srebrenica massacre (1995) was ruled a genocide by international courts. Approximately 8,000 Bosniak men and boys were killed, while the majority of the region's ~25,000-30,000 Bosniak population (women, children, and elderly) survived but were forcibly displaced. The survival of the majority did not negate the genocidal intent to destroy a distinct part of the group. 2. The Internal Contradiction (Admitting "Proven" Starvation) Malcolm explicitly admits that starvation is "proven." This admission actually undermines his conclusion that it is not a genocide. • Article II(c) of the Genocide Convention specifically lists one of the five genocidal acts as: "Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part." • The Implication: If one accepts that starvation is being inflicted (as Malcolm does), and if that starvation is man-made and deliberate (as "proven" implies), then the criteria for a genocidal act are met. The only remaining question is "intent." By conceding the act (starvation), he creates a massive hole in his defense against the charge of genocide. 3. "War Crimes" vs. "Genocide" Malcolm is willing to accept "War Crimes" but draws a hard line at "Genocide." • The Distinction: War crimes generally refer to violations of the laws of war (e.g., disproportionate force, targeting civilians).

"War Crimes" vs. "Genocide" Malcolm is willing to accept "War Crimes" but draws a hard line at "Genocide." • The Distinction: War crimes generally refer to violations of the laws of war (e.g., disproportionate force, targeting civilians). Genocide is distinguished by the special intent (dolus specialis) to destroy the group. • The Critical Flaw: He seems to believe the distinction lies in the death toll ("Did too many civilians die?"). In reality, the distinction lies in the objective (destruction of a people vs. military advantage). You can have a genocide with a lower death toll than a non-genocidal war, provided the intent to destroy the group exists. 4. Objective Reality Check • ICJ Ruling: The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has not yet ruled definitively on whether genocide has occurred (which takes years), but it did rule in January 2024 that there is a "plausible" risk of genocide in Gaza, ordering Israel to take measures to prevent it. • Starvation Data: As Malcolm notes, starvation is a major factor. The IPC (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification) has reported "catastrophic" levels of food insecurity affecting nearly the entire population, a condition historically linked to genocidal campaigns. Verdict Malcolm's tweet relies on a strawman definition of genocide (that it requires total or near-total extermination). By admitting to "proven starvation" and massive civilian casualties, he effectively concedes the material elements of genocide (the acts), while arbitrarily denying the legal label based on a misunderstanding of the threshold (survival rates). Adelunth's counter-argument-that the existence of survivors does not disprove genocide-is historically and legally accurate.
