It’s so weird being Iranian right now, scrolling through my feed and seeing all my fellow Iranians praying for freedom, and seeing every white leftist & terror sympathizer praying the oppressor wins… “for humanity.”

Incredible. An actual real safety airline video. No gimmicks, just reality.

Really glad that all of the Japan Airlines pax and crew seem to have survived the crash. But I'm not surprised to hear that it was an orderly evacuation. JAL is able to board widebody aircraft in 10-15 mins as pax are so considerate. Also JAL plays this every safety briefing:

Organizations should probably take a dive into what happened inside of their newsrooms for the first 12 hours, and really understand the points where things broke down. Because no matter what actually happened on the ground, the media response was poor.

The Russian Embassy in Lisbon. Two neighbouring houses are projecting the blue and yellow onto its facade. The ambassador is reportedly “apoplectic”.

Putin's bombing of Ukraine is a nightmare unfolding in real time before our eyes. Russian gas and oil now come soaked in blood. It is no longer morally justifiable for the West to purchase them.

Are people really discussing Boris Johnson as possible candidate for PM? When I lived in London he was known as the gaffe man!

If you don’t believe in free speech for people who you disagree with, and even hate for what they stand for, then you don’t believe in free speech.

I found disturbing footage of chair throwing & assault on Chassidic Jew Tue on Albany & Lincoln. Victim is uncomfortable reporting due to the discovery reform (attacker may know his identity). Same group assaulted someone later that night on Union Kingston. @NYPD77Pct @NYPD71Pct

Oh and “export prices rose 1.9 percent in the September 2019 quarter to their highest in over 10 years,” “Global economic headwinds” is Labour government BS. @Stats_NZ

Iranian-backed Islamic Jihad rocket fired from populated civilian area falls short and hits @ICHR_Pal offices in Gaza. @amnesty then blames Israel. Typical false one-sided reporting and ignoring threats by Islamic Jihad and Hamas Muslim Brotherhood. haaretz.com/middle-east-news…

Replying to @amnesty
We strongly condemn attack on the Palestinian Independent Commission for Human Rights whose office in Gaza was struck by an Israeli missile earlier this morning. Strikes targeting civilian buildings is a violation of international law. We are sending our solidarity to @ICHR_Pal.
