Telling CNN what the ceasefire agreement after 2 years of genocide will mean for Gaza, & how keeping the boot of occupation on the necks of Palestinians will never bring true peace or security for Palestinians or Israelis.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.

Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.

They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

Chartbook 409 Beyond the "Marshall Plan": China's solar boom as world-changing industrial policy. In the first six months of 2025 China installed more than 250GW of solar power capacity.

"China is the only large country driving the energy transition at anything close to the necessary speed and scale."

It's also the only one whose energy transition is not hamstrung by reliance on the motive force of renewables profitability.

Coincidence?

I think not.

Rent Control Is Fine, Actually Regulating rent prices is often called "bad economics." But it isn't. The effects of rent control are complex.

I den forbindelse er det værd at nævne, at rigtig meget forskning peger på, at et lejeloft ikke sænker udbuddet af boliger. Det påvirker de private investorers beslutninger om at bygge ejer frem for lejer, men det påvirker ikke den samlede boligmasse. www.currentaffairs.org/news/rent-co...

Al Jazeera journalist Anas al-Sharif killed in Israeli attack in Gaza City Al-Sharif killed in what appears to be a targeted Israeli attack on tent housing journalists outside al-Shifa hospital.

Al-Sharif killed in what appears to be a targeted Israeli attack on tent housing journalists outside al-Shifa hospital.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:

“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”

Israel just killed him.

Private virksomheder bruger mellem 39 procent og 70 procent flere administrative medarbejdere end det offentlige.

I brancher, hvor der både er offentlige og private velfærdsudbydere, har det offentlige heller ikke mere administration.

Et huslejeloft begrænser ikke den samlede boligmængde, men det føre til færre lejeboliger og flere ejerboliger. Det er et trade-off, der er værd at lave for at holde lejepriserne nede - og som kan udlignes med flere almene boliger. www.currentaffairs.org/news/rent-co...

'From the river to the sea' stammer fra PLO og henviser til et ønske om en enstatsløsning med plads til både palæstinensere og israelere. Det bør betragtes som et ukontroversielt kampråb.
