Despite the genocide, Gaza’s children light candles on New Year’s Eve.
Amid rubble and shelling in the Gaza Strip, these small flames are acts of defiance — proof that hope, joy, and life itself refuse to be extinguished.

Amazing interview attacking Polanski as a "fantasist" "selling unicorns".
But Polanski has not said "squeezing a tiny elite of billionaires will pay for everything that we want and everything that we need.” He has simply argued, as many tax economists do, for a wealth tax.
So who is the fantasist?

Government sources say social media posts by British-Egyptian activist do not meet legal bar for such sanction
The Home Office will not strip the British-Egyptian activist Alaa Abd el-Fattah of his citizenship because his “abhorrent” past social media posts do not meet the legal bar for such a sanction, government sources have said.
Abd el-Fattah, who landed in London from Egypt on Boxing Day, has been at the centre of a political storm over social media posts he published more than a decade ago, including tweets in which he called for Zionists to be killed. Continue reading...

<p>"He can be very difficult on occasion, but you need a strong man," Trump conceded when asked about his personal relationship with Netanyahu, as he welcomed him at the doorstep of his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.</p>
