So gut es die Autorin dieses Textes vielleicht auch gemeint haben mag - der Text bleibt dennoch einseitig.
Gerade in so einem Konflikt, wäre es wichtig nicht von einem Prämisse auszugehen, dass der Angreifer gute Gründe gehabt hat. So sehr ich das iranische Regime verabscheue, und einen Fall dieses sehen möchte - so muss man doch die Motive des israelischen Regimes auch hinterfragen. Es ist ja völlig richtig Unterdrückung im Iran zu erwähnen, aber nicht nur dort. 🧵

Plenty of genocidal, zionist, racists are NOT jewish - many of the people horrified by the actions of the Israeli government ARE jewish
So...if you believe #Starmer's wife to be a problem, (idk or care) its a problem of Zionism, racism, support for genocide - not a question of jewishness

Quoting Noa Limona on media shift from from "casualties" to "murdered" when talking about Israelis killed by Iranian missile strikes:
Limona argues that this change diverts responsibility from internal factors like inadequate protection for citizens and blames the “enemy” solely, but it’s also hypocritical:
[…] According to this logic, the Iranian missile launchers are not soldiers but murderers. Of course, this is a logic that is only true for one side of the equation, since the civilians who die in Gaza or Iran are never murdered. Any talk of IDF pilots as "murderers," or the phrase "killing babies as a hobby," which also assumes intent—is immediately met with condemnation from all parts of the political spectrum. It is inconceivable to call the dead in Gaza "murdered," even if they are pregnant women, small children, or babies in incubators. And as far as the media and politicians in Israel are concerned, it is difficult even to say that they are "killed," since most of the time their deaths are not mentioned at all. As IDF spokesman, Effie Defrin, said yesterday, without a hint of irony, "Unlike us, who only target military targets, it is the nature of the Iranian terrorist regime to target civilian targets."
Also,
[…] In recent days, we have felt on our own skin a fraction of the terror that the residents of the Gaza Strip have felt on their skin for over a year and a half. In a panicked run with the children to the neighborhood shelter, as the missiles fly over our heads, one thing is clear: there is no difference between the civilians who die in wars, and there is nothing more terrible for any parent, anywhere in the world, than the feeling that it is impossible to protect their children.

#GazaGenocide #Israel #Iran #usa
Quoting Michael Sfard, a lawyer specializing in human rights law and the laws of war, on why Israel's actions in #Gaza cannot be erased by a war with #Iran, and why attention must remain focused on Gaza:Sfard says that many Israelis are caught up in nationalistic fervor, encouraged by media that amplifies pro-war voices. There's a danger that the government will exploit a potential conflict with Iran to intensify its actions in Gaza, possibly leading to further ethnic cleansing and mass killings. The destruction in Gaza is indefensible and potentially constitutes war crimes, with future generations bearing the burden of these actions.
[…] "No war with Iran will erase our crimes in Gaza. Over the weekend, a shocking article by Nir Hasson, Yarden Michaeli, and Avi Sharf was published here about the destruction of Gaza. Read it. Look at the aerial photographs. This is us, the Israeli people of the 21st century, erasing cities, destroying towns, crushing villages. There is no military explanation that can even come close to justifying this destruction, which from a legal standpoint is a clear crime. And that's before we talk about starvation and the use of humanitarian aid to carry out transfer. Generations of Israelis will have to live with the mark of Cain that we have branded ourselves with, in actions that in the worst case are crimes against humanity and war crimes, and in the even worse case accumulate to the suspicion of genocide."

Sensitive content
Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.
We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.
There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.
Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.
Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.
Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.
Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the entire network.
Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. There are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.
We offer the following federated services:
Friendica.Eskimo.Com
Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.
Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com
Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s primary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.
Mastodon.Eskimo.Com
Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another instance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.
NextCloud.Eskimo.Com
If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.
Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com
Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. Instance is new as of April 6th, 2025.
Yacy.Eskimo.Com
Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl, but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.

>> On top of all the contradicting emotions came a sobering realization: This war was not Gaza's. While missiles crossed multiple regional borders, Gaza remained trapped. Aid was still blocked and Israeli airstrikes continued to rain down.
>> As global attention pivoted toward Tehran, Gaza continued to pay a heavy price. In the 48 hours following Israel's initial strike on Iran, the number of Palestinians killed in the Strip exceeded the combined death toll in both #Iran and Israel.

The IRGC announced a more powerful wave of missile strikes on Israeli targets, claiming improved tactics disrupted Israeli military command systems and caused defense units to misfire on each other.
They credit the operation to strategies inspired by commanders Bagheri, Salami, and Hajizadeh, and assert that despite Western support for Israel, the missiles struck with high precision.
The IRGC vowed to continue the strikes until the collapse of the Israeli regime.

Man in custody after Arthur Folasa Ah Loo, 39, was apparently shot by member of event’s peacekeeping teamGuardian staff reporter (The Guardian)
So if I'm reading this right, there were armed peacekeeping volunteers organized with the event (not necessarily by the protest organizers but they were part of the protest). One of them saw a guy grab an AR-15 from an alley and confronted him. The rifle-weilder raised his rifle, the peacekeeper fired several shots, killing a random person and wounding the rifleman. The rifleman is being charged with the murder because Utah law probably counts anybody dying as the result of a crime to be murder for the person committing (a few states do that). They're currently investigating the peacekeeper.
I'm curious to know more about this peacekeeper business. Were they openly armed? Were they all armed? How big was this group? How were they organized? Presumably the rifleman was trying to start shooting or at least threatening to shoot. If the police weren't sure of that much, they wouldn't have charged him with murder. If the peacekeeper isn't even being arrested, my guess is the police feel very confident about how this went down.
Hi
Can someone recommend some decent bike lights? I have a front one that attaches with the rubber band type thing that's pretty good except it turns on in my bag every time so it's always dead when I go to use it.
Needs be removable from the bike easily.
I would prefer USB C over micro USB. Or maybe rechargeable AA battery which I already own.
Also the rear light is gonna be attached to milk crate on the back rack.
It's for a city just to be seen so I don't need 7150 lumens.
Thanks!
I mainly use this rear light. It comes with a bracket so you can mount it to the back of your rear rack. Then you just clip it in. I hate the rubber band lights.
I'm also quite happy with this front light. The mount stays on your bars and the light really easily clips in and out.
Borth are usb-c. Don't bother with the planet bike front lights. Maybe their nicer ones are better but the mount is ass for the cheaper ones.
Illuminate your night rides with the ROCKBROS Bicycle Front Headlight RHL800LM. This high-brightness bicycle light provides up to 800 lumens, ensuring excellent visibility and safety.ROCKBROSUSA

Das Israel eine Bedrohung für den Iran, wie für das iranische Regime darstellt, sehen wir ja gerade deutlich. Wenn wir Israel das Recht auf einen Angriffskrieg bei Sicherheitsbedrohung zubilligen, muss logisch auch der Iran das Recht auf einen Krieg gegen Israel haben.

Wenn die Führung Israels, durch Leute ausgetauscht würde, die friedliebender sind, und eher davon abgeneigt in 6 Ländern Krieg zu führen wäre das für den Iran und die anderen Nachbarn auch besser. Plädieren wir auf das Recht auf gewaltsamen Regimechange in Israel?

Wenn es nur ein Vorwand wäre, dann wäre das Gerede vom "preemptiv-Angriff" ohnehin komplett bedeutungslos. (-> Völkerrechtswidriger Angriffskrieg)
Auch Israel hat übrigens ein Atomprogramm. Soll das iranische Regime das auch als Vorwand für irgendwas nehmen?

in reply to stephie • • •>>Seit Jahren hat Israel diese Militäroperation vorbereitet<<
-> Also ein vorbereiter völkerrechtswidriger Angrifsskrieg.
>>Luftschläge auf Irans Nuklearanlagen<<
Verbietet die Genfer Konvention.
Wollen wir das Iran Atomanlagen in Israel angreift?

Militärbasen sind legitime Ziele in einem Krieg.
Ölraffinierien, Gasinfrastuktur nicht unbedingt. Da kann der vorprogrammierte Schaden für Umwelt und Menschen erheblich sein.

Unser Kampf gilt nicht euch, den tapferen Menschen Irans, die ich respektiere und bewundere. Unser Kampf gilt einem mörderischen Regime, das euch unterdrückt und verarmen lässt.“<<
Schon ziemlich dreist, sich dieses Motto anzueignen.

in reply to stephie • • •Dann ist es natürlich auch vollkommen irrwitzig, wenn Israel bei seinen Angriffen auch auf Privatwohnungen zielt, wo die Tötung von Zivilisten, auch Regimegegnern. wahrscheinlich ist.
Es wurden ja gezielt Wissenschaftler angegegriffen - im Iran und in Israel.
Beides sind meistens keine legitimen Ziele nach dem internationalen Recht.
Netanyahu möchte einfach, dass die iranischen Bevölkerung für ihn die Drecksarbeit macht, während er sie beschiesst. Kennen wir aus Palästina.

in reply to stephie • • •Die Autorin schreibt dann über die Unterdrückung, die ambivalente Haltung im Iran und so weiter. Alles völlig okay.
Nur dürfen wir an diesem Punkt ja nicht vergessen, dass Netanyahu ja auch die Bevölkerung unterdrückt. Es ist nur eine andere Form der Unterdrückung. Es ist ja all die Bevölkerung, die der Staat Israel kontrolliert, in den besetzten Gebieten, wo die meisten weniger oder gar keine Rechte haben, keinerlei Mitsprache. Millionen Menschen - seit Jahrzehnten.

in reply to stephie • • •Das müsste man ja auch mit erwähnen in einem ausgewogenen Artikel.
Bedeutet nämlich, auch dass man das Recht des Irans Israel anzugreifen, um eine Regimechange bzw. ein ende der völkerrechtswidrigen Besatzung legitimieren müsste.
Ich weiss nicht ob man das Argument machen sollte, aber es folgerrichtig dieses Argument zu machen, wenn man das Recht Israel zubilligt wegen Unterdrückung einen militärischen Regimechange im Iran einzuleiten.
stephie
in reply to stephie • • •Die Autorin geht ja davon aus, dass das Atomprogramm ein willkommener Vorwand für den lange vorbereiteten Krieg - zum Regimenchange sein könnte.
Das bedeutet dann aber auch konkret, dass man deutlich macht, dass der Iran in letzten Woche, vor der Nacht zum Freitag das Recht auf einen präemptiven Angriff gehabt hätte, wenn er vom bevorstehenden Angiff Israels gewusst hätte.
Sicherlich würde man in deutschen Medien dann nicht so argumentieren. Andere Maßstäbe. Nicht das Völkerrecht.

Hier ist zu Fragen, was war das für ein Nuklearphysiker? War er ein Militär? War er wirklich essentiell / nicht ersetzbar für die Entwicklung von Atomwaffen?
Wenn er Zivilist war, dann war das in den meisten Fällen dennoch ein Kriegsverbrechen.
Will man dem Iran das Recht einräumen Wissenschaftler in ihren Schlafzimmern zu töten? Ich denke nicht.

Das ist die üblichen Drohungen. Wir wissen ja dass der israelische Staat/Militär oft die Doktrin verfolgt, auf Angriffe hundertfach zurückzuschlagen. Hat mit dem internationalen Recht eher nix zu tun. Wir haben es ja auch in Gaza gesehen dort steht kein Stein mehr auf dem anderen.

Unknown parent • • •Naja das ist halt der wohlmeinende Teil des etwas progressiveren deutschen Bürgertums, dass mit ganz viel Verständnis für Israel von den eigenen Rassismen ablenken will und dabei genau das tut was die politische Rechte will, aber mit 'Bauchschmerzen' und dem Gefühl "zu den guten" zu gehören.
