So here we have retired US diplomat, Robert Ford, admitting that he and British MI6 helped in the rebranding of Syria's current president, Abu Mohammad al-Julani, who was a former terrorist and headchopper for ISIS. The CIA and MI6 shaved al-Julani's beard, and rehabilitated him into a president.

Just in case you thought this was about trans athletes. This was solely about creating a fascist and racist gender bureaucracy over what constitutes being feminine enough to be considered a woman.
They're targeting cis women who may be intersex and banning them from sport.

This move is based on pseudoscientific nonsense. Just ftr.
The International Olympic Committee is set to ban trans and intersex women from competition. This is despite the fact that for 20 years, the IOC has allowed trans athletes to compete and only 1 has ever competed and none have ever won a medal.

The Palestinian tradition of olive picking and dates harvest in the occupied West Bank is under threat from Israeli settlers who have increased their attacks on farmers this season.
The struggle to preserve the Palestinian olive and date harvest
The UN says October saw the highest number of Israeli settler attacks on Palestinians in nearly 20 years of tracking that violence. More than half the attacks targeted olive harvesters.

Farewell then Tim Davie. Under his watch the BBC whitewashed genocide, had the BBC News website resembling a “migrant crime” X account, boosted trans hate and the right wing STILL hate him. Quite an achievement
BREAKING: Tim Davie resigns as BBC's director-general - with CEO of BBC News also stepping down

My nephews and nieces are like “yeah we have a non-binary kid and a trans girl in our class” no big deal. Mainstream transphobia from media and politicians is driving hate
Locking phones up in school - the time when children are already LEAST likely to be on them - will do NOTHING to stop bullying, poor mental health, isolation, or radicalisation!
It will also have ZERO impact on the rabid transphobia that’s perpetuated through the mainstream media & politics! 😖

There should be more funding in education against transphobic bullying and trans safe spaces in schools in Brianna’s name. But with slow push to bring back section 28 they stuck the response to her murder onto a school policy they had planned already

The BBC withdrew from the Stonewall workplace scheme in 2021. Absolute lies
The language is word-for-word from gender-critical campaigning…
“Captured by Stonewall.”
“Trans agenda.”
“Biological sex, not gender identity.”
This isn’t media ethics, it’s an op-ed straight from the ‘Sex Matters’ / Transgender Trend’ playbook! 😖
