In 2004, Parisian police were conducting a training exercise in the french catacombs and found, after moving past a desk and a tape playing audio of snarling dogs, a fully functional movie theater and bar. When they returned 3 days later, the equipment was gone, with a note: “Do not try to find us.”

Beirut, 1970. The interviewer
was Richard Carleton. 2 years later Israel planted a bomb in Kanafani's car, killing him and his 17-year-old niece Lamees

Amazing. Does anyone know what year this was? There’s mention of ‘20 years’, so maybe the late 60s?
The shameful part is that Palestinians were always telling the world what's happening & were always getting killed by Zionists. But those deaths were not enough. It took a full blown genocide for most westerners to come around...and even now some people have the audacity to say "it's complicated"

Leading up to yesterday's play streets, I read comments online where people warned it would lead to traffic chaos, how it was an infringement of drivers' rights or (more imaginatively) a plot to imprison people in their homes.

This is the dream. Our street took part in the Play Streets initiative and everyone is raring to go again. Anyone approaching in a car was very respectful, and our street is ONLY a rat run for outside traffic each day, it serves no other purpose to non-residents. So, more afternoons of play streets!

I love the Tolka Greenway, and I love that it's a key part of the "Distributed Museum" of Dublin Port. A distributed museum! History in context! History in nature! Hook it to my veins!

Big push on to stop the Central Bank renewing its genocide bonds deal on September 2nd! Come out tomorrow to show the government that we will not accept the continuation of this shameful fundraising for apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians. No more, no renewal.
