Right now, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Poland and Finland are in the process of withdrawing from the Mine Ban Treaty. These withdrawals mean more tragedies will inevitably follow. Landmines don’t protect. They kill your own civilians.

He was just living a normal life, long long after a war. And this isn’t an isolated tragedy, this happens over and over again around the world where landmines have been used. Every time landmines are used, civilians will pay the price for decades ahead. People not even born yet.

This weekend in Bosnia, 19 year old Mehmed was killed by a 30 year old landmine. He was tending to his family’s goats, which had wandered into a mined forest. Mehmed wasn’t a soldier. The war ended 30 years ago, 11 years before Mehmed was even born.

This is a really great example of a journalist that’s actually questions the interviewee based on international law. We need more journalists to ask follow-up questions like this!

(Obviously, football today is absolutely a capitalistic entertainment product & it’s getting worse & worse by the year but that’s why complaining that serie a, that is at least a bit less “product” than premier league is not catering enough to random Americans is so provoking).

I’ve said it as a joke before but now I’m 100% serious, Americans should stop appropriating our culture and leave football alone.

SERIE A IS NOT FOR YOU! It’s for italian cities and their people. Not for random Americans picking a team for fun. Football is not an entertainment product, it’s a culture. Of course you can be a fan anyway, but these clubs are not made for you. Enjoy it but you’re not the center.

I saw a TikTok with an American complaining that Serie A wasn’t promoting its “product” to tv viewers like him enough, that their marketing & stadiums are not attractive for a US tv audience that might want to become fans and I’ve never been more provoked in my entire life.

Last week, Marseille joined ICAN Cities Appeal. The city supports the #TPNW and calls on France to join it. The French government is one of the most stubborn opponents of the TPNW, yet the 3 largest cities Paris, Marseille and Lyon (and 95 others) supports it. Allez @ICAN_France!
