World News@lemmy.ml•‘Israel Has Become Dangerous for Jews Around the World’
1·10 days agoSorry, GC, but you are mistaken here. The introduction from World-Outlook gave some very clear evidence that there is genuine anti-Semitism on the rise world-wide, including the US. I don’t know the details on Amsterdam, but I do know that the attack in Michigan was genuine. (I sympathize with the attacker, who lost family to Israeli bombing. But blowing up children is a bad way to fight Zionism.)
There is both a rise in real anti-Semitism, along with the Zionist (ADL, AIPAC, etc.) slander campaigns against supporters of Palestine, falsely accusing them of anti-Semitism. Both need to be combatted.

1·10 days agoCan you elaborate on that?
I was using a gift link, but I didn’t call it out because some Lemmy admins object to gift links.So I usually link the non-gift URL and then add an archive in the body of the post. But this time the archive didn’t work, so I stayed with the gift URL.

Cuba@lemmy.ml•Brazilian unions and movements rally under the “Petróleo para Cuba” campaign to break the energy siege on Cuba
1·2 months agoFeb. 14, 2026
Brazil Cuba solidarity reaches new heights as trade unions and social movements launch coordinated efforts to support Cuba amid a severe energy crisis triggered by U.S. pressure. On February 14, 2026, the Unified Federation of Petroleum Workers (FUP) formally requested an emergency meeting with state-owned Petrobras to arrange urgent fuel deliveries to the Caribbean island.
The campaign, dubbed “Petróleo para Cuba” (Oil for Cuba), counters recent threats from U.S. President Donald Trump. He imposed potential tariffs on nations or entities supplying hydrocarbons to Cuba, exacerbating fuel shortages that cause rolling blackouts and disrupt essential services.

Huh? This article is not anti-Islamic or anti-Palestinian. If the NYT prints something useful, I have no problem posting it.
