Saudi Arabia  is an overseer on the  U.N. panel on human rights, the appointment is like making a pyromaniac into the town fire chief, and underscores the credibility deficit of a human rights council  and the UN.

This is the type of men that are now fleeing from the middle east and flowing into the countries of Europe, demanding sharia, stonings, beheadings etc, trying to turn their civilized host countries into the same barbaric states as the one they fled from…  

Ways to support Ukraine 🇺🇦

More than 500,000 people have already left Ukraine due to the invasion by the Russian Federation. The European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management estimates that roughly 18 million Ukrainians will be affected by the conflict in humanitarian terms, with 7 million internally displaced and 4 million seeking refuge elsewhere. To help those still in Ukraine, as well as Ukrainian refugees, we’ve compiled this list of resources.

HelpUkraineWin.org has a collection of vetted and trusted resources, charities, and organizations to help Ukraine.

Some additional ways to donate:

Vostok SOS provides immediate evacuation support.

Malteser International provides essentials for Ukrainian refugees.

Ukraine Crisis Media Center provides fundraising links and a list of tips for sharing information.

Misinformation spreads fast on social media. It is more important than ever to share accurate, verifiable news and information. Here are some resources to learn how to identify misinformation:

This video from the nonprofit WITNESS shares tips for identifying authentic sources (available in English, Spanish, Ukranian, Russian, and Arabic).

These visual verification tips, also from WITNESS, provide information on verifying images and videos (available in English and Spanish).

Following the 1948 war, in which the Arabs failed to defeat Israel and drive the Jews into the sea (not to be confused with the 1967 war, in which the Arabs failed to defeat Israel and drive the Jews into the sea, or the 1973 war, in which the Arabs failed to defeat Israel and drive the Jews into the sea), almost a million Jews (many of whom had lived there for millennia) were expelled from Arab countries. They were harrassed, beaten up and had their possessions and homes stolen (for which they have never been compensated). Some were murdered. Those fortunate enough to escape left with literally the clothes on their backs and nothing more. In response, Israel opened its doors and welcomed them with open arms. This was the Jewish catastrophe, the one no-one talks about. In 1948 (prior to expulsion), there were well over 900,000 Jews living in Arab countries. Today there are less than 3,500. In 1948, there were around 950,000 Arabs living in Israel. Today there are 1,720,000. This week, we commemorate the loss and suffering experienced by almost a million Jews, the Jewish ‘nakba’, the one nobody talks about.

He did the whole “all of Africa was peaceful until the white man brought slavery to Africa”. I mentioned that Many African countries had slaves long before the Atlantic Slave Trade. And that a vast majority of those slaves taken to the Americans were already enslaved by other Africans and merely purchased.

Alan Turing is one of Britain’s most famous humanists. His genius helped the Allies win World War II, but he was not treated well at home. He was persecuted for being gay, chemically castrated, and died tragically in 1954 from cyanide poisoning.

You can learn more about the humanist views of Alan Turing on our new website, Humanist Heritage, which charts 125 years of humanist history in the UK.
