Samfélagsbanki sem veitir vaxtalaus lán: „Ég á mjög erfitt með að skilja misskiptingu auðs“ - RÚV.is Samfélagsmál eru listamanninum Sæmundi Þór Helgasyni hugleikin. Hann segir fátækt feimnismál. Hann opnaði samfélagsbanka í Amsterdam sem veitir vaxtalaus lán án skilyrða og vonast til að geta bráðlega endurtekið leikinn á Íslandi.

Ráðstefnur og orð duga ekki lengur - RÚV.is Utanríkisráðherra segist skynja aukinn þrýsting meðal ríkja heims á Ísrael um að binda endi á átökin á Gasa og hleypa nauðsynlegri mannúðaraðstoð inn á svæðið. Tími aðgerða sé runninn upp.

Það má nú segja www.ruv.is/frettir/innl...

Israeli forces illegally boarded ‘Handala’ in international waters, abducting 21 unarmed civilians.
Demand your government end its complicity in Israeli war crimes, ensure the unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid, and call for the immediate release of all crew members.

ALL communications with 'Handala's crew have been jammed. We lost all contact with our crew, and there are multiple drones near the vessel.
Which means they could've been intercepted or attacked.

As predicted, the front pages of BBC & CNN are full of Israel-Iran.

Nothing on Gaza or West Bank. Remember that all comms are cut in Gaza as they starve.

Exactly what Netanyahu wanted.

They can do anything they like now as the vapid MSM chase the new squirrel released for their distraction.

As @thunberggreta.bsky.social makes her way to #Gaza aboard the ‘Madleen,’ the #FreedomFlotillaCoalition continues to honor the promise we made to the Palestinians in Gaza back in 2008: to sail until Israel’s illegal siege is broken.

Environmental protection is under threat in Brazil. Here’s why it matters to everyone  - Greenpeace International A new bill recently approved by the Senate in Brazil undermines the licensing of projects that can have huge environmental impacts —just a few months before COP30.

The "Devastation Bill" has just been approved in the Senate in Brazil and is considered the biggest attack on environmental regulation in decades

The Amazon rainforest is dangerously close to a tipping point, where it may no longer be able to produce rain and sustain itself as an ecosystem
