@karimbitar.bsky.social Merci pour votre intervention de ce matin sur @france24.com dont l’honnêteté intellectuelle fait du bien dans ce PAF.

🎙️ Alors que le président américain débute une tournée dans la région, comment analyser la stratégie de Donald Trump au Moyen-Orient ? J’ai répondu aux questions de C. Ockrent sur @franceculture.fr avec notamment @justinvaisse.bsky.social & @karimbitar.bsky.social www.radiofrance.fr/francecultur...

Une histoire de la fondation du Liban, avec @karimbitar.bsky.social

I’m still digesting the recent events in Syria and, like everyone, I have no idea what happens next. But when I see video of political prisoners freed after decades, it feels like a real unraveling of something so deeply rooted in the country that few imagined they’d witness it in their lifetime.

🚨NEW on CNN: Audio and video we uncovered show Vivek Ramaswamy spent years attacking his DOGE partner Elon Musk as a puppet of China. Calling him “in China’s pocket,” “bending the knee to Xi Jinping,” and jumping “like a circus monkey” to get favors for business in China. www.cnn.com/2024/12/03/p...

NEW: Bluesky has seen massive growth in the weeks following the US election. There are 24 million users on the social media platform. With great engagement comes great responsibility, which means Bluesky CEO @jay.bsky.team has a lot to do. She sat down with WIRED to talk about it.

Hello, Bluesky! Who else is on here?
