Israël & USA frappent l'Iran : ce que dit le droit international Israël et les États-Unis ont lancé des frappes militaires massives sur le territoire iranien. L'Iran riposte déjà. C'est une escalade majeure. Mais est-ce légal ?👇 #1

L'hystérie reprend sur le génocide et encore une fois, la plupart du temps pour dire n'importe quoi. Quelques éléments 👇

NEW 🧵The White House has now issued its first formal legal justification for the lethal attack on a vessel in the Caribbean. This War Powers report to Congress is long on bluster and short on substance. This letter does not adequately justify the premeditated killing of apparent civilians. 1/n

Charles Kushner, the new U.S. ambassador to France, was summoned to the French Foreign Ministry after saying the country was not doing enough to protect its Jewish citizens, a charge the government in Paris said it “firmly refutes.”

High stakes indeed. Given the voting rules (abstentions don't count as support by default), the government will likely fall if -a big if- the 66 Socialists abstain. If confidence isn't secured on 8 September, the government has to resign. Then the proverbial whatchamacallit hits the proverbial fan

The Trump administration is making us less well-informed now and in the future.

Again, it's all about removing the beam from your own eye before pointing out the speck in someone else’s. We still have a long way to go 🙄

😡❗️Trump a refusé une réunion conjointe avec les dirigeants européens et recevra Zelensky en tête-à-tête, selon Bild. Quel cirque bon sang. Il a plus de respect pour un État dirigé par un meurtrier que pour ses alliés ! Ça commence à bien faire !

Sound statement by EU leaders: We "stand firmly by the side of Ukraine." No negotiations about Ukraine without Ukraine. defend its territorial integrity. Meaningful negotiations only after a ceasefire or reduction of hostilities. Trump has abandoned these 4 positions. ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

Le mec essaye de tricher avec l'attribution du prix Nobel de la Paix comme il triche pour obtenir des victoires dans les concours de golf de ses clubs... Quel loser pathétique

Update: We reported in July that Trump was poised to slash regulations protecting the public and the environment during rocket launches by companies like SpaceX. On Wednesday, Trump signed an executive order making it happen.

Seeing Donald Trump clapping Putin walking on to US soil after murdering tens of thousands of allies in an unprovoked and illegal war, is stomach churning. All laughter and bonhomie when they eventually shook hands after a long lovers' walk towards each other. #AlaskaSummit

I'm Jewish and I think about antisemitism all the time. I can't tell you how fucking weird it is that Homeland Security posting literal neo-Nazi propaganda generates less discussion about the threat to Jews than a mayoral candidate who believes Palestinians are human beings.

🧵 1/10 – A new player in international dispute resolution? On May 30, 2025, 33 countries launched the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) — the first intergovernmental body focused solely on mediation of international disputes. Let’s unpack. 👇 #IntlLaw #IOMed #DisputeResolution

Faced with Trump's 30% tariff, the EU urgently needs a comprehensive map of its retaliatory options; ranging across goods, services, IP, digital, finance & people-to-people measures (including their cost to Europe). Fortunately, we @ecfr.eu have already published that map: ecfr.eu/publication/...

Does President Trump's payment to El Salvador to detain hundreds of men without charges or a trial violate U.S. law? @seharrison7.bsky.social ( @crisisgroup.org) finds that loopholes in U.S. statues have provided a pathway for the use of security assistance for the purpose of imprisoning people.

With President Trump threatening to revoke Rosie O’Donnell’s citizenship, it seems like a good time to re-up my explainer on denaturalization and expatriation — and why what Trump is suggesting is … not viable:

Quel travail d’enquête époustouflant du NY Times… 30 minutes de lecture pour comprendre en détail les coulisses de la guerre à Gaza. Et comment l’obsession de Netanyahou pour sa survie politique a conduit Israël dans une offensive sans fin. Un must read!

How did the world go so wrong?😬

Iran called the Non-Proliferation Treaty a “political weapon” at the UNSC because its noncompliance was used as justification for attacks. Israel emphasized a preemptive justification: “The cost of inaction would have been catastrophic." #BreakingIL #UseOfForce www.reuters.com/world/middle...

A Boston University professor of global health has done the math and created a website to visualize and track the effects of the Trump/DOGE dismantling of USAID. "As of June 15, the death toll for adults and children from aid funding cuts topped 340,000 and came out to 103 deaths per hour."

The Minnesota assassinations, the attempted arson at Governor Shapiro's home, and the violent arrest of Senator Padilla are all straight out of the Jim Crow terrorism playbook. Same goes with cops aiming for journalists covering the ICE protests. None of these are new tactics, just a new iteration.

USA 🇺🇸 L'élue démocrate Melissa Hortman et son époux ont été tués à leur domicile par une personne habillée comme les forces de l'ordre. La rhétorique de D. Trump qui est basée sur la violence ne peut que favoriser ce type d'action...

The Haitian government is working with Erik Prince, a private military contractor and prominent supporter of President Trump, to conduct lethal operations against gangs that are terrorizing the nation and threatening to take over its capital.

This is the stuff university leaders should be out loudly, publicly, & collectively explaining. Along with defending higher ed & the rule of law, we need to be making the case that tuition is going to spike & entire courses/majors/labs/etc. for folks' kids will disappear: bsky.app/profile/mcop...
