Israel’s mosaic of Jewish ethnic groups is key to understanding the country

There has been a political shift to the extreme right in Israel when it comes to the greed of a minority of Jews who managed to gain control of Israel and its major institutions. Israel has been an army a nation of Generals even before it became a Nation of civilians. Fighters once useful to the West. America Created Bin Laden, Sadam, The Taliban, and the Haganah now the IDF in their own interest and eventually, they all turned against them.

The diversity of Israel’s Jewish population has been a source of tensions, but also strength, over the decades.

Climate Youth Fill the World’s Streets to #StandWithUkraine

Stand with Ukraine march in Hamburg

 

Young climate campaigners with Fridays for Future took to the streets across the globe Thursday to stand with the people of Ukraine—whose country was invaded last week by Russian President Vladimir Putin—and call for a world that prioritizes peace and freedom from fossil fuels for all. As Ukrainian forces and civilians fought Russian invaders who have been accused of war crimes, members of the youth-led movement—who generally hold school strikes on Fridays, inspired by Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg—carried signs that said #StandWithUkraine and #NoMoreWars. Demonstrators also used the hashtags to share updates on social media.
