    Translated from Indonesian

    1/ Happy International Women's Day 2026!

    If the government fails to protect us, we rise. We organize. We fight back. We demand more than just empty promises.

    #HariWanitaSedunia

    https://x.com/AmnestyMy/status/2030516062949953703



    Translated from Indonesian

    2/ Because it is not equality as long as every woman, wherever she may be, does not yet have it.

    Translated from Indonesian

    3/ And we will not back down!


    https://x.com/AmnestyMy/status/2030516070407454760








    Save Our Citizenships 🔻

    On this year's International Women's Day, we pay homage to all the women and girls who fight endlessly for the rights of everyone, especially those who have fallen at the hands of oligarchs who perpetuate endless war for their own gain. Women around the world have to fight an uphill battle against the poison of patriarchy, and yet despite this, they never give up and stand firm.

    We often see western women speaking up this day to celebrate women and girls outside the west, but once the day is over they go back to their whiteness, and forget they exist.

    For the Black women and girls in every corner of the world who everyone should listen to, but often don't.

    For the Muslim, Sikh, Hindu, and Buddhist diaspora women and girls who teach us so much in the face of continued hate from far-right horrors.

    To the women and girls trying to survive warzones, particularly Sudan, Congo, Occupied Palestine, Iran, Ethiopia, and Myanmar.

    To the women and girls from immigrant families who keep us going, doing the work that white westerners don't want to do.

    To the trans women and girls who have always been here, and always will be.

    Thank you, with every fibre of our being, thank you.

    Your comment is truly unfair, it only divise women amongst themselves, white against color, higher education or more money versus lower??? Really!! All i see, worldwide, is women raising children often alone, having revenues 30 to 80% less than men, therefore making them their society’s slave, including white women in affluent countries.

    All my friends and I are cleaning our dwelling, cooking, taking care of the children, and working full time. If it is what being white is, I can pass my turn.

    You have bought the division which makes us easier to be ruled instead of working together for the betterment of of all.

    " doing the work that white westerners don't want to do"

    Its not so much the work that westerners "dont want to do".
    Its very often the work that westerners :dont have to do".

    Ive worked with whites all my life doing some of the most disgusting jobs with not an immigrant in sight.

    Immigrants and backpackers often do light physical work like fruit picking because the immigrants in alot of cases have no other Skills than that of labourers, these immigrants (in Australia) need these jobs to get afoot in the door of the work force in a foreign country, many go on to a much better working position., and remember that in Australia the "minimum wage" rate is MUCH higher than that of countries such as the USA.

    You can make a living from working at McDonalds and as checkout chicks, and you can move up from there to a better position as you learn more skills and and the way of life and how things work in a foreign country.

    Ivanka Trump & Jared Kushner worked with real estate brothers—today found guilty of raping at least 60 women.

    Oren, Tal & Alon are "big Trump supporters" who were "in the room" on election night & attended White House parties.

    Some victims given drugs & taken across state lines — before being physically restrained and sexually assaulted.

    Oren, Alon, and Tal Alexander were found guilty on all 10 counts—including conspiracy to commit sex trafficking and sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion.

    NEW | Three Israeli-American brothers convicted in US sex trafficking case

    A federal jury in Manhattan found Oren, Tal, and Alon Alexander guilty of running a years-long sex trafficking operation targeting women and girls, some of whom were drugged before being raped or sexually assaulted.

    The three brothers, prominent figures in real estate and private security, were described by prosecutors as predators using wealth and social status to lure and abuse victims. Eleven women testified about the systematic sexual abuse they endured.

    Manhattan US Attorney Jay Clayton said the verdict sends a clear message that sex trafficking will not be tolerated, though it cannot undo the suffering of the victims.

    They are charged with drugging and raping dozens of women over two decades.

    Netanyahu’s HOUSE BOMBED! He’s Forced To Flee Israel
    The Jimmy Dore Show
    1.8M subscribers
    Mar 10, 2026

    "Jimmy reports on a major escalation in the Iran war where the homes of Israeli leaders have been targeted, allegedly killing Benjamin Netanyahu's brother and seriously wounding Itamar Ben-Gvir, signaling a shift to targeting Israeli leadership in response to their regime change assassination of Ayatollah.

    He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger highlight how Western media like the BBC and Reuters are covering up the attacks by reporting Ben-Gvir was "lightly injured in a car accident," exposing their role as propagandists for Israel.

    Jimmy notes that Israel's air defenses are failing, with Iranian missiles now getting through relentlessly, while Netanyahu himself is reportedly fleeing on private jets rather than showing the courage of the Iranian leader he assassinated. The segment concludes with observations that Pentagon contractors are suppressing satellite images of destroyed U.S. bases and that Trump's claim the war is "almost over" may actually signal Israel's desperate request for an exit as they face defeat."

    🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING | EVERY AMERICAN'S DATA MAY HAVE BEEN STOLEN BY A DOGE OPERATIVE

    A whistleblower alleges a former DOGE engineer walked out of the Social Security Administration with a thumb drive containing two of the most sensitive databases in the U.S. government, and planned to share them with his private employer.

    The databases, known as "Numident" and the "Master Death File," contain records on more than 500 million living and dead Americans, including Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship status, race, ethnicity, and parents' names.

    According to the complaint, he told coworkers he needed help "sanitizing" the data before uploading it into his new company's systems. When a colleague refused on legal grounds, he said he expected a presidential pardon if his actions were found to be illegal.

    He allegedly described his access as "God-level" and with clearance no outside contractor had ever been granted at SSA.

    The SSA's inspector general is now investigating. Congress has been alerted. The GAO is conducting a parallel government-wide audit of DOGE's data access.

    This comes on top of separate acknowledged DOJ-confirmed breaches, DOGE members sharing SSA data through unapproved channels and with a political group attempting to overturn election results in multiple states.

    The former SSA chief data officer put it plainly: "There could be one or a million copies of it, and we will never know now."

    However, this may be more accurate. (And besides from the Middle East, China gets a large proportion of its oil from Russia. China has been preparing for this for many years. See this WSJ article: China Has Spent Years Preparing for the Iran Oil Crisis)

    https://t.me/DDGeopolitics/177017
    Iran has continued shipping large volumes of crude oil to China through the Strait of Hormuz despite the U.S.-Israel war against Iran disrupting traffic in the key waterway.

    Since the war began on Feb. 28, at least 11.7 million barrels of Iranian crude have passed through the strait, all bound for China, according to TankerTrackers co-founder Samir Madani.

    China will never be cut off from oil. Even with Trump's foray into Venezuela and the invasion of Iran, there is still plenty of oil in the world to meet demand. The difference being that China will no longer have unfettered access to deeply discounted oil. Trump has forced a major geopolitical shift, and I don't think he is done yet. China's access to cheap oil has enabled it to dominate global manufacturing, and that has wreaked havoc on some neighboring countries that pay market rates for crude. When you combine China's cheap labor costs and discounted oil prices, it has allowed them to overproduce intentionally, causing market distortions and monopolies. For instance, they have driven steel producers out of business in India, Brazil, and Vietnam. China is currently (intentionally) driving prices incredibly low for EVs, solar panels, batteries and semiconductors, to name just a few products. Most people may think that the world benefits from low prices, but in fact, it is causing a fairly severe loss of jobs in some emerging nations and will eventually give China a near monopoly, causing prices to skyrocket. No matter what the pundits say, war and conflict are fundamentally driven by economic interests because economic strength always translates into political and strategic power.

    The FDA is transforming how we monitor product safety. Beginning today, the new Adverse Event Monitoring System (AEMS) replaces a patchwork of costly databases with one unified, real-time platform. This is HUGE!

    This has much wider significance and importance than most people realise. For starters, it may be the final nail in the coffin for the mainstream media and ultimately will help determine how new media sources handle bias, dishonesty and omissions.

    Departing BBC boss warns network on 'knife-edge' amid Trump documentary lawsuit, trust crisis

    he outgoing head of the BBC admitted the embattled broadcaster is on a "knife edge" as it grapples with financial woes and a "full-on crisis" of public trust.

    BBC Director-General Tim Davie announced he would resign in November after a documentary the network aired in 2024 was criticized for misleadingly editing a speech by President Donald Trump on Jan. 6, 2021.

    The BBC Panorama documentary spliced together two separate sections of the speech, making it appear as though Trump was calling for violence on the day of the Capitol riot and did not include the president’s call for supporters to protest "peacefully and patriotically.

    According to The Hollywood Reporter, Davie spoke at a Royal Television Society event, warning the BBC about its future ahead of his official exit in April.

    "Today, the BBC is strong, but it is on a knife edge," Davie said.

    Davie conceded the network is facing a "brutal" financial situation and issues in its relationship with the public. He called for "radical reform" to its funding structure to better compete with American streaming giants that are merging.



    Davie has served as BBC director-general since September 2020 and previously admitted in a letter to staff that the broadcaster had made "mistakes." He referred to recent criticisms in his Thursday speech as "hurricanes," but said the broadcaster remains relevant.

    "Of course, we have made mistakes, and this has not helped us," he noted, pointing to a difficult financial situation.

    Here’s how the Hollywood Reporter noted the mention of the "crisis" the BBC was facing: "The BBC needs confident and decisive steps, and the willingness to take risks, amid a ‘full-on crisis’ of trust that major organizations, including the U.K. public broadcaster, are facing in the age of social media and fake news and amid a ‘brutal’ financial state of affairs, outgoing BBC director general Tim Davie said during a Royal Television Society (RTS) keynote speech and Q&A in London on Thursday."

    Trump has filed a $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC. The case is expected to go to trial next year.

    This week, during a BBC Persian broadcast of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s speech on Iran, the network mistranslated the word "regime" as "mardom," which means "people" in Persian. The mistranslation made it appear the U.S. was targeting the Iranian public rather than its leadership.

    The BBC issued a correction, calling the incorrect translation a "mistake" made by human error during the live translation.

    Yup - that's a biggie.

    I noted some odd parallels between this rebuilding of part of the medical system, and some banking system failures in Britain: Turmoil in the British Isles -- Post #1910. In both cases, I saw a controlled demolition of an old system, to be replaced with an AI developed "new and improved system."

    Iran Pulls Out of FIFA 2026 World Cup in U.S. Amid Regional Attacks Escalation


    The Iranian national team could face FIFA sanctions for not participating in the 2026 World Cup.

    The Iranian national team was to play its three matches in the U.S., the announcement of their withdrawal could cost the Iranian Federation should repay all funds received by FIFA.

    Iran’s national male football team will not participate in the FIFA 2026 World Cup, citing the “brutal aggression” by the United States and Israel against the Islamic Republic and the assassination of its former Supreme Leader.

    The decision, announced by Sports Minister Ahman Donyamali on Wednesday, March 11, directly challenges assurances from FIFA’s President Gianni Infantino and U.S. President Donald Trump that Iran would be welcomed to compete in matches scheduled to take place on U.S. soil.

    The definitive announcement was made by Ahman Donyamali, the Minister of Sports of the Islamic Republic, who stated unequivocally that the national football team would not travel to the United States for the FIFA World Cup 2026. Iran’s first-round matches were exclusively scheduled to be held in the northern nation.

    “Given that this corrupt regime (referring to the Trump Administration) has assassinated our leader, we cannot participate in the World Cup under any circumstances”, Donyamali declared, referencing the aggression initiated on February, 28 and the killing of the previous Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

    “Considering the malicious actions carried out against Iran, they have imposed two wars on us in eight or nine months, and thousands of our citizens have died. Therefore, we definitely have no possibility of such participation”, added Donyamali.
