This Dutch Jewish boy was gassed as soon as he arrived in Auschwitz. He was 9 years old.
8 October 1934 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Helmut Loewenstein, was born in Eindhoven. In November 1943 he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection. --- A short video showing the ruins of gas chamber and crematorium III: youtube.com/shorts/ipQmBPAlJ…

Never forget.
Le 7 octobre 2023, le monde se figeait dans l’horreur devant les images insoutenables des massacres perpétrés par le Hamas en Israël. En ce jour d’infamie, des hommes, des femmes et des enfants ont été tués uniquement parce qu’ils étaient juifs. Nul n’a oublié ces scènes d’une barbarie inouïe qui rappelaient brutalement les pogroms que l’on croyait appartenir à l’histoire tragique de l’humanité. Nul n’oubliera ceux qui en soutenant l’insoutenable, en l’excusant, ou en le relativisant ont franchi le seuil de l’inhumanité. En ce 7 octobre 2026, mes pensées émues accompagnent le deuil et le recueillement du peuple israélien frappé en plein cœur, les familles et les proches des victimes de ces abominations.

15 million Jews have 190 Nobel Science prizes. 2 billion Muslims have only 3 Science Nobel prizes. Muslims want to kill all the Jews to balance the inequality.
Hello haters. Another Jewish Nobel laureate. French chemist Henri B. Kagan has just won the 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Jews account for roughly 22% of individual Nobel laureates, while Jews make up only about 0.2% of the world’s population.

This!!
The science is not ambiguous. A forest does not “make way” for progress. It is the progress: rainfall, carbon storage, food, and species that exist nowhere else. Clear the Congo Basin and you export drought to the people least able to absorb it.

The new kid on the block! Last week, our Ithumba Keepers and the dependent orphans gathered to welcome Comet – a newborn, and the 95th known calf born to an orphan elephant we rescued, raised and rewilded. A week on, it’s all smiles as mum Chaimu has chosen to stick around, giving the Keepers and orphans regular glimpses into the new baby’s world. Read the full story: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/n…

There's never been anybody in the history of the Nobel Prize that deserves it more. Look at Gaza, it's a parking lot now, safe for Israeli development, lots of beachside property available. Look at Iran, I've bombed it so much they're begging for peace.

Selective breeding has resulted in chickens that grow unnaturally large, extremely quickly. This puts immense strain on their chick bodies, leading to health issues like heart failure and trouble breathing. Many struggle to stand and die of starvation. #EndSpeciesism

I really cannot understand Europe's feeble response to the vicious islamists who are despoiling their countries. Can't they see the abominable effects they had on unarmed people in Israel? Israel is fighting a just war.
