Today we celebrate the UN's anniversary.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I want to take this day to thank the UN for being an organization committed to maintaining international peace and security, fostering friendly relations among nations, promoting social progress, higher living standards, and human rights, even when they refuse peace resolutions to save civilian lives! 🤡

We have also seen images from CNN, carefully choreographed and curated, following the Israeli military’s ground operation in Gaza. We were told that CNN was “embedded” with them. As a condition for entering Gaza with Israeli air support, media outlets are required to “submit all materials and footage to the Israeli military for review prior to publication”. CNN had agreed to these terms.
Journalists, media and civilians were never “collateral damage” in the Israeli war on Gaza. From the beginning, the slaughter of Israelis by Hamas was used as the excuse for bombing Gaza into oblivion. After killing thousands in the north, the IDF notified Palestinians to move to the south to avoid danger then bombed the south killing thousands more (mostly women, children and elderly) with the ultimate goal of forcing all Palestinians out of Gaza forever and always.
Netanyahu and his right wing extremists have been destructive to Israel and now they’re endangering and destroying relations with the United States and other countries. The violence, atrocities, and war crimes committed by the Israeli government and the IDF against civilians and others in Gaza will have significant and lingering consequences.

Beyond the Silk Roads: Trade, Mobility and Geopolitics across Eurasia

Magnus Marsden builds upon the historical and cultural contexts that bridge the gap between Kabul and other manifold places such as China, Turkey, the former Soviet republics, and Saudi Arabia. Beyond the Silk Roads challenges the dominant paradigm in the academic discipline of global geopolitics, which assumes a "top-down" approach and focuses on nation-states as the sole drivers of geopolitics.
