offsite link Losing to Win Thu Feb 13, 2025 14:00 | Dr James Allan
Sometimes politicians have to lose to win so the other side can show its true colours. Trump is the standout example, says Prof James Allan. Had he won in 2020, we would not have had the blitz of the last four weeks.

offsite link Don?t Blame Gen Z Thu Feb 13, 2025 09:00 | Joanna Gray
Joanna Gray says the Gen Zer she was mentoring had an epiphany: "It?s not us who suck; it?s you Gen Xers. No wonder you lot went along with all that trans BS, you'd all lost your bottle." Terrifyingly, he was right.

I'm just back from a trip to Athens, where I was visiting a friend. Whilst there, I had the privilege to march with our Greek brothers and sisters in a demonstration.
(In case you've been living under a rock, Greek police shot and killed a 15 year old boy on the 6th of December) I think its important that I share my experiences with as many people as possible because in general the media outside of Greece tends to show the police in a far more favorable light than they deserve. Before I write about what I saw yesterday, I must say the Greek student movement is incredible. I have never seen a student movement as informed, passionate, driven and well executed as I did in Greece. We should all be taking a lesson from them. read full story / add a comment

"At about 1 am GMT Free Gaza boat - Spirit of Humanity - which was in international waters was surrounded by 5 Israeli boats. They questioned the 21 civilians on board the Free Gaza, asking them their nationalities and the purpose for their trip, which was to take 5 tons of medical supplies.

They gave 3 warnings that if they didn't turn back they would be fired upon (all this in international waters) and effected dangerous manoevres that put the safety of the boat in doubt as there was a high risk of collision. "

While the attack on Gaza is pretty much continuous, reports from people in Gaza on Al Jazeera English say that the worst of it is always at night - with noticeable intensification at dawn. The dawn raids are deliberately timed to coincide with the early morning call to prayers from the minarets. It makes a hideous contrast.
Anyway, a bunch of media activists have decided to stay with the people of Gaza each night and to watch what is going on via A J English, if you can get it, and to post commentary on the Medialens messageboard. We're a small group yet, but hopefully more will join us each night.

Al Jazeera have a creative commons repository which permits people reuse their their footage of their Gaza related coverage in an attempt to help get the truth of the situation out - a tacit criticism of other mainstream media.

"Let us know! You can send us a message through our contact form.

According the license, you must attribute the footage to Al Jazeera (but not in any way that suggests that we endorse you or your use of our work).

You are required to leave our logos intact, reference this website and the license itself."
