When r*ssia kills Ukrainian civilians in their residential blocks - it’s just a normal day online. When Ukraine wants to defend itself - it’s a major WW3 escalation. Doomed. This world is doomed.

1,000 days of Ukraine’s fight for freedom - your bravery defends not only your independence but the shared values of Europe against Russian aggression. Today, in occupied Abkhazia, Georgians stand firm against Russia’s annexation efforts. Freedom and independence will triumph!

Tbilisi, Kyiv, Aleppo, and Bucharest. All resisting Moscow.

The fall of Aleppo in 2016 was a grim prelude to Bucha, Mariupol, and Bakhmut in 2022. It was in Syria that Russian pilots learned how to raze Ukrainian cities to the ground. The world’s failure to stand up to Putin and Assad back then became an open invitation for Putin to

Damascus today Crimea tomorrow

Syria Is Free

Bloody Assad regime is gone. While Syrian people face many challenges and uncertainties ahead, we celebrate the demise of a dictator. Also a message to other autocrats: you are much more vulnerable than you think. Also a strategic blow to Russia and Iran. Not a bad day.

Some Russians, even Putin’s critics like Navalnaya, claim the breakup of their empire would bring chaos. Why should we believe that? History says otherwise. Russia itself creates instability. Its imperialism has caused far more violence than its collapse ever would.

When a devastating earthquake struck Syria in 2023, Ukraine was one of the only countries to send aid to the people of Idlib disregarding the Assad regime's demands that all aid should flow through Damascus Syria-Ukraine solidarity has always been more then just internet culture

My support for Ukraine was not in vain. They are kind and incredibly brave people. I stand with Ukraine not just because we share a common enemy, but because they are in the right, and everyone should support them. My ongoing experience with Ukrainians has been truly remarkable.

My essay for the Guardian. ‘The world is looking at the body of truth that is dying and bleeding before our eyes. I beg you, if you can’t stop the bleeding, at least don’t turn away from the sight of blood’. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Facts that are missing from public discourse: Russia is torturing, disappearing & erasing Ukrainians in all territories that they occupy. They are bringing in a replacement population as fast as possible. This is settler colonialism & genocide. Facts inconvenient for Trump & co.

The soviet strategy of "russification" of occupied territories was a real thing. Hundreds of thousands of people were deported from the small Baltic countries, in cattle cars, and dropped in the middle of nowhere in Siberia, and russians moved in. Nothing has changed.

This is one of the main villages you saw in No Other Land. Today it was destroyed by the Israeli army.

These are the four pieces for which I won the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary. All published in 2024. Blessings to the souls of 31 members of my family who were killed in one air strike in 2023. Blessings to the souls of my four first cousins, two of whom were killed with their

Esam redzējuši "Straume". Šovakar 8. maijā 18:30, Splendid Palace, ir iespēja noskatīt citu ar Oskara apbalvoto filmu par Rietumkrastu. (bezmaksas) Latvijas Ārlietu ministrija 2024.g. ANO balsojumā nosodīja Palestīnas okupāciju. Latvieši tīri labi izprot ko nozīmē 50+ gadu

This is textbook settler colonialism. Mariupol isn’t being rebuilt for the native inhabitants. It’s being rebuilt to erase them. If Russia succeeds in its plans, less than 10% of Mariupol’s projected 420,000 residents will have any memory of the city before Russian occupation.

If mass starvation and the ethnic cleansing of 2.1 million people is to be avoided, we need to cut off all arms sales and sanction this murderous regime with immediate effect

A reminder that even now, at the peak of Iran's attack, many more innocent people are being killed in Gaza than in Israel, and that you won't read a word about them in any Western news source. It's as if they are invisible, or at least regarded as subhuman, by our newsrooms
