La nouvelle loi sur le hijab obligatoire est suspendue à la suite de l’intervention du Conseil suprême de sécurité nationale
À la suite d’une vive réaction contre la nouvelle loi sur le hijab obligatoire, le régime clérical, craignant des soulèvements généralisés après la chute du dictateur syrien – un événement qui a ébranlé le régime jusqu’à la moelle – a été contraint d’interrompre la mise en œuvre et l’application de la loi.
Dans la soirée du 14 décembre 2024, il a été annoncé que le secrétariat du Conseil suprême de sécurité nationale avait officiellement demandé au Parlement des mollahs de suspendre la promulgation et l’application de la nouvelle loi sur le hijab obligatoire.

Plus de 400 000 mégots ramassés dans les rues de Toulouse
"Un mégot est un déchet dangereux qui contient 2 500 substances toxiques : acide cyanhydrique, naphtalène, nicotine, ammoniac, cadmium, arsenic, mercure, et même du plomb.
Aucun ne devrait se trouver au sol, car dès les premières pluies, il est emporté vers les égouts et finit dans l’eau, où il met à peine 27 minutes pour diffuser ses molécules toxiques qu’on ne peut pas éliminer après ; alors qu’à la fin c’est cette même eau que l’on boit", peste Florence Ducroquetz, fondatrice et présidente de l’association Champ d’actions, défenseure de l’environnement."Un tiers des mégots que nous avons ramassés se trouvent aux abords des stations de métro, bus et tram de Tisséo. Là, les cendriers ont été enlevés alors que le réseau transporte près de 800 000 personnes par jour. Ensuite nous en trouvons aux abords des bars où il n’y a plus de cendriers sur les tables et où les responsables passent un jet d’eau sur le sol pour les évacuer… et tout part à la Garonne".

I wish to say out loud, here and now, that I think that a component of Trump's win in 2024 will be the large chunks of traditionally Democrat voters such as retired or soon to retire boomers, liberal soccer moms with family salaries being plowed into 401k accounts, and union workers with pension funds similarly invested.
I think it is a very good time to protect yourself from a share market collapse. Hopefully you are not mortgaged to the hilt with a high interest loan such that you can ride out a dip in prices. And perhaps look at hedges like gold too.
There is yet another storm brewing, and it is odd indeed that a terrible financial calamity is actually the better of two horrible options.
Plan for it.

@Taweret btw this is like the most sublimely #monsterdon movie i have ever seen and if we haven't watched it together it is like an absolute maximum priority kind of movie.
I'm uploading a decent rip to IA now and can also put it on youtube if that works for most people? I think we would also want to offer a "no violence against children" version which blanks out maybe 1 minute of the movie that isn't graphic per se but is unnecessarily distressing and totally irrelevant to what's going on

#Israel just killed journalist Mohammed #Baalousha in a bombing that targeted his home on Ahmed Yassin Street in Northern #Gaza.This isn't the first time Mohammed was targeted. In January, he was shot by an Israeli sniper while reporting and denied medical treatment for six agonizing hours as tanks blocked his evacuation.
Since October 7, Israel has killed 193 #journalists in Gaza. It has also killed many of their family members.
These aren't random tragedies-they are part of a systemic effort to blind the world to what's happening in Gaza.Targeting journalists isn't just about controlling the narrative; it's about erasing it. Killing journalists in Gaza isn't just an attack on Palestinian voices-it's an attack on every journalist, everywhere.
When a journalist is murdered for doing their job, it sends a chilling message: No story is safe. No truth is sacred. It endangers every journalist who dares to ask uncomfortable questions or expose inconvenient truths, whether in Gaza, Sydney, or New York.The complicity of Western governments and media in turning a blind eye to these killings is a disgrace. By failing to demand accountability, they enable the silencing of dissent and the erosion of the public's right to know.
But here's the truth they cannot bomb into silence:
Journalism is not a crime. And justice-for journalists, for Palestinians, for all oppressed people-is not optional.
Every journalist lost in Gaza is a reminder that we cannot afford to look away. Our voices are their voices.
Raise yours. Demand an end to the killing of journalists.
Demand an end to the mass murder of men, women, and children.

@wjmaggos Problem is that Biden also had very serious issues and Harris indicated she agreed with his policies. The goal was to get a less shitty Dem--first by having Biden replaced and then, when Harris became the candidate, to attempt to push her to change some of her policies.
It was clear that if Harris did not change her policies, there was no path to victory in the electoral college so no point in compromising principles and voting for her.
It is impossible to describe the relief I feel reading a student paper that has grammar errors, typos, missing words, or second-language idiosyncracies and I can confidently read the work knowing my student actually wrote it and is expressing their knowledge in their own words.
@Dave_Goldsmith i actually had an assignment where i asked them whether and how they opened to use it. I haven't actually read all the responses yet because my heart can't take it. I had them read three issues, labor exploitation, water consumption, and linguistic discrimination, first.

I hear you. I agree with freeing political prisoners, i.e. dissidents. I'd be very cautious releasing ex ISIS (or other takfiri factions) into society. I'd be very cautious releasing criminals without vetting what they got sentenced for.
As for torture camps, how about the Israeli prisons? Palestinian prisoners tortured for decades, tortured to death in cases. Where's the outrage?
How about Guantanamo or many more states prisons where torture is routine.

I would add that HTS and affiliated groups have already started extrajudicial executions, roadside and some I've seen in a hospital. Gruesome to watch. Horrific practice, which is true to form for an offshoot of Al-Qaeda with a pinch of ISIS in it.
They've been persecuting Christians and Alawites already and dictating what women should / shouldn't do. It's only gonna get worse.
There is no good coming out of this regime change
I'm no supporter of Assad.

Of course! Then it can be claimed it doesn't work! Standard reactionary back-sliding logic.
