It's quite a bizzarre caricature to describe the Chinese as very good at technology but not that good in social sciences, while the Russians as super good in social sciences but bad at technology. This cartoonish framing sounds Trump-ish...so perhaps, in Ms. Kallas’s world, Europeans are best at imitating American presidents. Let's be clear: calling disinformation campaigns a threat is fair and necessary, but delivering such an interview which is basically an incoherent stream of consciousness (half-sentences, no clear argument, vague statements, caricatures instead of analysis, dismissing this/that because you think it's ridiculous without saying why etc) is self-sabotage. Don’t blame citizens’ attention spans when your disastrous interview makes it impossible to those who listen to list five coherent bullet points on what your arguments and counter-arguments are.

Ever since watching this video,I’ve been wondering: why didn't African American slaves just form a union to negotiate better working conditions with their masters? And why didn't the Native Americans simply file a formal complaint when their land was taken away? Surely the colonizers would have listened to some well-organized feedback. By the way, instead of dumping tea into Boston Harbor, why didn't the American colonists just start a British-themed tea subscription box? That way, they could keep the tea while making a profit. Finally, if Gaza has been free since 2005, why did they waste time on rockets instead of opening at least one McDonald's with a rocket-themed Happy Meal? Clearly, all these groups just lacked a bit of entrepreneurial spirit. If they had been a bit more innovative, history could've been much different. Watch the video (with English captions) and you'll finally see just how many historical tidbits you've managed to miss. #Palestine

“Cosa vuoi fare da grande?” “Il pilota” “Perché?” “Per uccidere Saddam. Saddam non ha pietà, perché distrugge le case” “E se entro allora sarà già morto, che cosa vorresti fare?” Il bimbo ci pensa “Quelli che hanno male al cuore, che vanno in ospedale e devono stare sdraiati sul letto…voglio operarli” “Quindi vuoi diventare un dottore?” “Sì, voglio essere sia un pilota che un dottore” Dottore o pilota quindi? La risposta la possono dare quelli che bombardano “per la pace e la libertà”. #Iran

In the past weeks, many have rediscovered Reza Pahlavi — and with him, a form of radical Zionism among some Iranians. In this interview, Dr. Reza Zia-Ebrahimi explores the roots of this phenomenon and how it relates to the idea of “Iranian dislocative nationalism”. Full interview: Extract 👇
