I tweet in 🇪🇸🇫🇷🇬🇧 which means you probably don’t want to follow me.

I work in the energy industry so I might rant about that occasionally.

Et si je vous disais que l'expression "Which way, Greenland man" est inspiré d'un livre raciste, antisémiste et complotiste ?

“If they hate the US, I like them” is a child’s politics, not leftism, and it’s going to have you supporting some of the most brutal regimes on the planet.

Russia has used its new Geran-5 drone for the first time. The drone is 6 meters long with a 5.5-meter wingspan, carries a ~90 kg warhead, and has a range of up to 1,000 km. It's equipped with 12-chan satellite navigation and may eventually be launched from aircraft or even armed with R-73 missiles.

Je pense à l'année passée, à ce que j'ai écrit. Des papiers moyens, d'autres meilleurs, des sujets pénibles à traiter, inintéressants au possible. Mais j'ai (encore) la chance de choisir ce que je veux écrire. Et le sujet dont je suis le plus fière, c'est celui-là:

Richard Glazar : la solidarité des Juifs tchécoslovaques au cœur de la révolte de Treblinka
Entretien avec Valéry Pratt, un des deux traducteurs français de « Derrière la clôture verte : survivre à Treblinka » de Richard Glazar.

Danish guy gets it
@luhmann@hachyderm.io on Mastodon: So when Trump decides to go get Greenland he’s just going to fly in and kidnap our prime minister. Great. You have a unscrupulous and clinically insane idiot elected as your president and he wants to own the world. I have absolutely no trust in any of you Americans whether you are pronounced MAGA or if you “didn’t vote for the guy”: Your elected president is a megalomaniac dictator and it’s your fucking responsibility to stop him.

I am mostly reserving judgement on Venezuela while things develop. But my initial thoughts.

1) Maduro’s rendition probably doesn’t advance any U.S. foreign policy objectives, per se.
2) It invites significant reputational damage.
3) The WH doesn’t appear to have planned beyond this point.

Best thing I’ve read this morning, from a human rights lawyer in Mexico. Translation is in the ALT-text.
Twitter thread in Spanish by José Mario de la Garza, a human rights lawyer in Mexico, translated using Google Translate: 1. Overthrowing a dictator sounds morally right. No one mourns a tyrant. But international law wasn't built to protect the good, but to restrain the powerful. That's why it prohibits force almost without exception: not because it ignores injustice, but because it knows that if each country decides whom to "liberate" by force, the world reverts to the law of the strongest. 2. The problem is not Maduro. The problem is the precedent. When military force is used to change governments without clear rules, sovereignty ceases to be a limit and becomes an obstacle. Today it is “overthrowing a dictator”; tomorrow it will be “correcting an election,” “protecting interests,” “restoring order.” The law does not absolve dictatorships, but neither does it legitimize unilateral crusades. Cont’d: 3. The uncomfortable question is not whether a tyrant deserves to fall, but who decides when and how. Because history teaches something brutal: removing a dictator is easy; building justice afterward is not. And when legality is broken in the name of good, what almost always follows is not freedom, but chaos, violence, and new victims. The law exists to remind us of this, even when it makes us uncomfortable. Maduro isn't the problem: he's the face of the problem. Removing him from power would be merely opening the door. Behind him is the machine: Rodríguez, Cabello, the military command, the operators of repression and plunder. If you only change the person at the top and leave the system intact, what follows isn't democracy: it's a reshuffling. And there's something even more difficult: Chavismo didn't just capture institutions, it captured daily life. Economy, media, bureaucracy, employment, fear, favors, blackmail. A country can't be "de-Chavistaized" by decree or by an electoral miracle. The real transition begins when that network is broken without setting the country ablaze. The challenge is enormous, and it's also a moral one: to unite without vengeance, but without impunity. Targeted justice for those most responsible, truth for the victims, guarantees that the rest will dismantle the system, and a plan for people to live again—not just survive. Because freedom doesn't come with a new president: it comes when the state ceases to be a threat.

The last time Gabbard mentioned the nation of Venezuela was in early 2019. It’s a big mystery why she’s apparently out of the loop.
Tulsi Gabbard It's about the oil ... again. @Tulsi...• 1/28/19 X Bolton just exposed real motive for intervention in Venezuela: "We're in conversation with major American companies now...It would make a difference if we could have American companies produce the oil in Venezuela.

Non-Western countries will laugh, rightfully so, at the EU for its double speech: when it is Russian imperialism, the EU fights back, when it is US imperialism, the EU calls for “restraint” and “monitors the situation”

The EU is burning a massive opportunity to act as the leader of the free world
