They shouldn't be allowed to participate if it wasn't for disgusting double standard of the organizers and pressure from Swedish and German government.
Swedish Tesla technicians “described increasing pressure to fix more cars in less time, which they said forced them to take shortcuts, skip breaks and stay late. They’d seen colleagues get fired for reasons that they said seemed arbitrary. Two said they’d spoken up about these issues and were deprived of raises as a result.”
In the middle of the raging war in #Gaza, the Swedish Armed Forces orders a new weapon system for the Jas 39 Gripen for SEK 390 million.
The target seeker system is manufactured in Israel by a state-owned company and is currently being used in airstrikes against Palestine to guide bombs against civilian targets.
The unbelievable stench of Israeli protection and propaganda on Swedish media!
Many years ago, I went to a one day class about the propaganda and how to cover negative stories in a way that changes/modifies the focus from the perpetrator to the victims or at least “bagalitisera” make it to become insignificant.
Swedish coverage of the ongoing genocide in Gaza has been nothing but the steps the guy explained: They have been ignoring the atrocities as much as they can, they have been using question the authenticity of the reports and most tricky and important of them all, try to either start or end the report with something completely unrelated because most people who actually read the story, usually remember only the last 2 paragraphs.
It is like clockwork. every freaking article has been like this, like the have a template or an editor that makes sure the story is written in a way that makes it less damaging.
Most people don’t see them, it is like the reporter is just covering the event of an important conflict, but when you look into it, it is always the same, the last 2 paragraphs are either completely unrelated or end with something less negative (or positive) about Israel.
The latest of these disgusting and outrageous charade was the report on the Swedish “liberal” DN.se, when they finally reported about the mass graves in Nasser hospital in Khan Yunis, they waited until the UN reported about it, and as usual, they used all the usual propaganda methods, when the image of spread dead bodies and the text explaining that 300 bodies were found in Nasser hospital, the first paragraph starting with BOLD says:
Enligt Israel var man tvungen att strida på sjukhusområden eftersom Hamas-terrorister använde dem som baser. Detta förnekas av Hamas.
“According to Israel, it had to fight in hospital areas because Hamas terrorists were using them as bases. This is denied by Hamas.”
Perfectly innocent, isn’t it, but for the person who saw the horrifying images, the story is no longer as horrible, because the good guys (Israel) had no other choice than fighting in and around the hospital because the bad guys (Hamas) was using it to attack the poor innocent Israeli soldiers.
It doesn’t end there, no report of torture, no report of children murdered in groups, no report on people visibly being tortured or traces of recent operations possibly because of Organ theft, nor that some were buried with their catheter attached to their bodies.
No none of those, but instead:
En del kroppar begravdes vid sjukhusen provisoriskt av anhöriga tidigare under kriget, enligt uppgifter till CNN. När man sedan kom för att ge de dödade en permanent grav hade kropparna grävts upp av den israeliska armén, och lagts i massgravar. Enligt CNN ska detta ha skett efter att man tagit DNA-prov för att utröna om det rört sig om det varit kroppar efter de israeler som tagits som gisslan.
“Some bodies were buried in hospitals provisionally by relatives earlier in the war, according to CNN. By the time they came to give the dead a permanent grave, the bodies had been dug up by the Israeli army and placed in mass graves. According to CNN, this was done after taking DNA samples to determine whether they were the bodies of the Israeli hostages.”
So the user will think that Israel didn’t CREATE those mass graves of the innocent Palestinians, but it was just their standard procedure searching for dead hostages on bodies already buried by Palestinians.
And then the last 4 paragraph goes into something completely different, the story of mass graves is completely sidestepped and “forgotten” as something like a footnote in the bigger picture of the good guys (IDF) fighting the bad guys (Hamas) in what seems to be a retaliation for the bad guys shooting rockets at Israel!
Under natten angrep Israel norra Gaza med den tyngsta beskjutningen på veckor, enligt uppgifter från boende där som Reuters talat med. Det beskrivs som en mardrömsnatt med ständig beskjutning.
“During the night, Israel attacked northern Gaza with the heaviest shelling in weeks, according to residents spoken to by Reuters. It was described as a nightmare night of constant shelling.”
And my favorite white wash section comes next:
Israeliska stridsvagnar gjorde en ny inbrytning öster om Beit Hanoun. Beskjutningen ska ha nått skolor där flyktingar tagit skydd.
“Israeli tanks made a new incursion east of Beit Hanoun. The shelling reportedly reached schools where refugees have taken shelter.”
The Israelis don’t attack sschools not refugee camps, and no report of dead or injured Palestinians, but that they Israelis were innocently had to react to Hamas rocket launch an attack that “reached schools”, isn’t it just lovely?
The ending is of course the perfect ending of any negative story about Israel,
Enligt den israeliska armén IDF var angreppen ett svar på raketbeskjutning från norra Gaza. IDF hävdar att man slagit ut avskjutningsramper och dödat flera terrorister under natten.
“According to the Israeli army (IDF), the attacks were in response to rocket fire from northern Gaza. The IDF claims to have knocked out launching pads and killed several terrorists overnight.”
This would have been an innocent co-incident, but when it happens in EVERY freaking negative story about Israel (the few that actually makes the print) follow the EXACT same method.
This is just sickening, remember seeing it in American media like CNN, NYT, WP as well as Reuters and AP, but British media used to be different, but sadly, they seems to have gone to the same class and have the same guidelines, the stories on internet are all (except a few) follow the EXACT same guidelines to control the damage when it is badly needed.
The DN has removed the paywall from their propaganda pages, so you can read it in Swedish or use deepl.com or other translating SW to read it in your language. dn.se/varlden/fn-chef-forfarad…
Executioner Johan Olofsson's receipt for the cost of executing Gertrud Jonsdotter, aged 50, and Sigrid Eriksdotter, aged 70, for witchcraft in Sveg's parish, Härjedalen, Sweden. The receipt is dated January 12, 1674.
What happened to "civilized west'" support of law and order and enforcing the demands of #UN Security Council and #ICJ?
7 days have passed, Israel not only ignored the ruling, it has escalated their war crimes in both #Gaza and occupied West Bank.
They haven't allowed humanitarian aid, but murdered western volunteers feeding the starving palestinians.
#US hasn't pushed for ceasefire and release of the hostages, instead they have given billions of dollars worth of 2000 pound bombs and F-35 fighter jets to Israel.
#Canada hasn't stopped selling weapons to Israel despite them laying about it and ignoring the parliament ruling.
Så, idag kom malmös sionister ut i full styrka till stadsbiblioteket för att sprida lögner som exvis "Hamas är Putin", "Det började den 7:e oktober" och så vidare.
Dessutom applåderade de, och jublade, när "deras" panelist tyckte att Israel inte skulle bojkottas från Eurovision.
Det hela lämnade en... det lämnade en ganska fadd smak i munnen.
#UNRWA / Saudi Arabia boosts funding to UNRWA by $40 million targeting Gaza relief
[…] The donation by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief), which is dedicated to Gaza, comes as UNRWA faces a severe funding crunch after the United States and Britain paused support following Israel's accusations that a dozen of its 13,000 staff in Gaza took part in the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on the country.
[…] #Canada, #Australia, and #Sweden have recently restored funding to UNRWA, while several Gulf countries, in addition to Saudi Arabia have increased funding.
"Deliberately grounded on a tiny reef in the #SouthChinaSea, part of an island chain claimed by the two Asian countries, the #BRPSierraMadre is now the unlikely base for a detachment of Filipino marines who stand guard over the atoll, scanning the turquoise waters for Chinese ships." #AyunginShoal#SecondThomasShoal#Philippines
To wrap this #Brahmos minithread up, the sole reason why the #Philippines is even considering acquiring the Hal-Tejas is that the Brahmos-NG (New Generation) is coming soon. Among the improvements is a substantial decrease in weight which enables a light combat aircraft (#LCA) like the #Tejas to carry two of them.
