I miss Carl Sagan (1934-1996).

From Cosmos to Contact, in books and on screen, his intellectual work has had a profound impact on me.

In these days of embraced anti-intellectualism, his books should be revisited.

So heartbreaking.

Alaa was about to embark on a PhD when the bombing of Gaza began. Now she is living in a plastic tent with her twin daughters, Ella and Ellen, who have chronic illness.

Israeli authorities are committing the war crimes of forcible transfer in #Gaza - which amount to crimes against humanity - as set out by @hrw.org.

I asked if the govt would acknowledge that and take concrete measures to prevent genocide and protect Palestinian lives.

My name is Dzemil and I was born in Sarajevo, Bosnia in 1983. This is my story of growing up during the Siege of Sarajevo. The longest siege of a capital city in the history of modern warfare.
