Very clever use of the conventions of perspective means that most people perceive this as a gate leading to a three-dimensional gated passageway. But actually, it’s just a gate (Gymnasium Theresianum, a high school in Vienna)
Une "fille formidable", selon son chef de réseau. Une employée de maison, qui cache les messages dans ses semelles et a dû éloigner sa fille de 7 ans pour la protéger. Le 27 novembre 1944, Henriette Amable est sortie de sa cellule et abattue d'une balle dans la nuque. 26 ans.
Want to know the extent of Israeli settler-colonial vindictiveness? Did you know that Israel passed a law to ban and criminalize Palestinians from harvesting za'atar (hyssop), akoub (gundelia) & sage (maramiya)– wild herbs used in traditional Palestinian cuisine for centuries?🧵
One of the things I find more interesting about Gabriel Faure's famous "Pavane" (originally for solo piano and later for small orchestra with an optional chorus) is its wonderfully strange affect. It has an aura that's at once distant AND affectionate.
Civilians for civilians #HostageRelease
"They’re seized in the dead of night, blindfolded and cuffed, abused and manipulated to confess to crimes they didn't commit. Every year #Israel arrests almost 1,000 Palestinian youngsters, some of them not yet 13"

#SundayMorningMood: a #Greek skyphos (a two handled drinking cup), decorated with an adorable and somewhat bewildered, googly-eyed #owl.

In 2022, Israeli police burst into a 16-year-old Palestinian’s family home, broke the teen’s nose and one of his teeth when he refused to undress in their presence, then dragged him away, bound and blindfolded. The boy, Shadi Khoury, was held and beaten for 41 days in an Israeli…
A delicate little Roman glass basket.
I love the inventiveness of the ancient glass worker who made this delightful object in imitation of a grass basket about 1,800 years ago.

Elle boite un peu. Et paraît si frêle... Mais en fait, une force d'acier! Résistante dès 1940, elle est arrêtée le 12 avril 1944. Torturée, elle ne dit rien. Alors,le 21, elle est jetée dans un camion. A bord, 11 Français. Seuls 10 sont sortis. Pour être abattus. Albertine Maurin

“There’s been a concerted effort by Israel & its friends in the West to conflate antisemitism with anti-Zionism. They're two completely separate things. They conflate two deliberately in order to suppress evidence-based criticisms of Israeli policies”

“She was 16 when they snatched her from me, she’s 24 now. I couldn’t watch her fall asleep for 8 long years, tonight she’s sleeping in my arms. She’s still my little baby. Time stopped for me.” The mother of Marah, who was released today in the hostage swap. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Netanyahu has directed Israeli intelligence to sabotage student groups in the US fighting for Palestinian rights
Israeli spies were caught on hidden camera working through AIPAC and the Israel on Campus Coalition

BREAKING: Barcelona has become the first European city to suspend all relations with Israel, "until a definitive ceasefire in Gaza is declared and the basic rights of the Palestinian people and compliance with United Nations resolutions are guaranteed."
The Israeli war against Palestine has all the hallmarks of an 19th or early 20th century European war of extermination of colonial subjects. It is seen as just by those who pursue and support it. And it is based on a myth of legitimate ownership of the victim's lands and goods
