I do not contest artistic freedom and, as I said, I find the cartoon drawing beautiful in and of themselves. But I would have preferred a drawing closer to reality...

Eric Morier-Genoud @emorier.bsky.social · Aug 19

It is a great idea and the drawings are great in and of themselves. But as a historian, I find the latter odd. The warriors are dressed Latin American style, the emperor's capital seems to be in a forest, and the huts are small when they were very large and well finished. I will let you compare...

Attacks in Niassa - the conservation perspective
#ISIS #insurgency
www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/...

Mozambique’s Niassa reserve was a conservation paradise. Then ISIS attacked.

The stunning nature reserve in Mozambique—known for its lions, elephants, and honeyguide birds, and home to some 70,000 people—is reeling in the aftermath of a brutal terror assault.

French courts flatly reject the case the family brought against the state for grave errors and denial of justice. 37 years after her assassination in Paris, the family is left with no answers... #apartheid #ANC #France
