Greta Thunberg vittnar om tortyr och UD-personal som har riskerat liv och hälsa på svenska fångar. SvD väljer att toppa med uppgiften att Greta Thunberg under tortyren fått studielån. Det är så exceptionellt sanslöst. Ett hån mot all journalistisk rim och reson.

🧵Sitter VG på bevis for at dette var en “narkobåt”? Artikkelen henviser kun til Trumps henvisning til egen etterretning.

Dette er Aftenpostens prioritering: 20 frigitte israelere får fire sider, inkludert hele forsiden. Bilde av samtlige. De er individer. 1700 frigitte palestinere får to små avsnitt, uten navn eller bilde. De er en underordnet, uviktig masse. Slik bidrar Aftenposten til å forsterke maktforholdet.

Our (with @ncgeehan.bsky.social) piece on #UEFA/#FIFA's failure to sanction the #Israel Football Association is out @josimarfootball.bsky.social.

We argue that they are unethical in the name of neutrality, applying unjustifiable double standards to Russia & Israel, & failing to enforce their rules.

Police to get broader powers to crack down on repeated protests Officers will be able to tell organisers to move demonstrations if protests have caused "repeated disorder".

Passing laws to create new, draconian restrictions on the right to protest - not for the national good but because the government can't admit its proscription of Palestine Action was a mistake and has failed - seems to me a genuine political scandal.

"Varför låter svensk media en folkmordsanklagad stat styra vinklingen på rapporteringen? Varför jagar man inte rätt på utrikesministern och avkräver henne annat än skrivna svar via sms?"

Many migrant workers who came to Qatar to build the 2022 WC infrastructure found themselves jobless after the tournament. @josimarfootball.bsky.social reveals how some of them have been recruited by the Russian army, are fighting and die on the Ukrainian front.

Tangen sier jobben etikkrådet gjør er ekstremt grundig. Jeg møtte Hellestveit til debatt i 2022 i Arendal der hun forsvarte oljefondets nye og store investeringer i Qatar med at myndighetene i landet hadde forpliktet seg til reformer. Usikker på om en sånn uttalelse er forenlig med kritisk sans.
