The “human shields” bit is such a nasty piece of propaganda. How can you use a civilian or a child as a shield when Israel will kill them too? Everyone in Gaza understands this.
Lots of furor here about a mistranslated Tibetan idiom. Nobody from Tibet wound find any sexual implications in what the Dalai Lama said.

The neighborhoods in Chicago with the highest crime rate voted for Johnson. They know the police aren’t going help them. Heck, I’m white, straight, and middle-class and I learned pretty quickly that the cops weren’t going to help me.
Vallas got the endorsement of the police union and lost. Go figure. If cops harassing, torturing, and killing innocent people made us safer, Chicago would have the lowest crime rate in the country.
The migrants crossing the border, legally or illegally, are not the ones bringing in the drugs. Trying to stop drug trafficking by focusing on migrants would be gross negligence. Blaming the migrants for the drugs in spite of evidence to the contrary has the stench of racism.

Nobody is denying the origins of the Azov Regiment, but the unit has been depoliticized since it joined the National Guard and the any neo-Nazi stuff is at the level of individual members. How much remains and what should be done about it is up for debate, but it’s worth noting that Azov has the support of many prominent Ukrainian Jews and there are Jews that volunteer to serve in the regiment.
