"There is absolutely no alternative among UN agencies or international NGOs to provide these services,’ says Philippe Lazzarini to Al Jazeera English, stressing UNRWA’s critical role in education and healthcare for millions of #PalestineRefugees. Without a political solution, UNRWA remains the sole provider of these essential services. A fully empowered Palestinian state is the only viable alternative to take over, but until then, UNRWA's mandate remains crucial for the stability and well-being of refugees across the region.

🚨🇺🇸 HHS’ RFK JR.: "NO MORE HIDING VITAL INFORMATION IN DRUG ADS" "The FDA is taking action to require full safety information to be included in drug ads on TV and radio. Drug ads drove a prescription drug cause and distorted doctor-patient conversations. Big Pharma's marketing hooked the country on prescription drugs. It's all about radical transparency and ensuring that you stay fully informed. At HHS, we believe an informed individual is an empowered individual." Source: Secretary Kennedy

America is now fully immersed in China’s Unrestricted Warfare, boundless, total-spectrum conflict waged through economic sabotage, cyber attacks, lawfare, cultural infiltration, narcotics flooding our streets, human trafficking networks, and relentless deception. Yet the gravest danger is not China, rogue elements entrenched within our own intelligence agencies and federal institutions actively suppress awareness, stifle countermeasures, and are shielded from exposure and accountability. This is deliberate subversion from within. Our Republic faces an external aggressor empowered by traitors in our midst. Donald J. Trump JD Vance

HEGSETH: U.S. MILITARY READY FOR IRAN, PRAISES UNPRECEDENTED RAID Sec of War Pete Hegseth said the U.S. military is fully prepared to carry out whatever President Trump requires regarding Iran, stressing that military pressure is meant to ensure Tehran chooses a deal and abandons nuclear ambitions. He pointed to a recent operation as proof of American military dominance, calling it the most sophisticated raid in history. Hegseth said U.S. forces penetrated another country’s most secure facility in the middle of the night, coordinating a complex strike with precision that no other military could execute. He added that no other president would have empowered the military to operate with that level of effectiveness. Stay connected, follow Mossad Commentary

Within the ambit of H.E. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, Bola Ahmed Tinubu National Health Sector Renewal Investment Initiative (#NHSRII), we have placed a strong emphasis on preventative care and building out the enabling infrastructure to support it. But we fully recognize that accidents happen. Sudden emergencies do occur when least expected. It is under Mr. President's compassionate leadership that we have been empowered to transform the way medical emergencies are handled from end-to-end across our dear nation. The National Emergency Medical Services and Ambulance System (#NEMSAS) is at an advanced stage as we prioritize emergency services for rural dwellers through the establishment of the Rural Emergency Service and Maternal Transport (#RESMAT) system in close collaboration with state and local governments.

In the last 15 days, there has been no clarity on who will be the minister in charge of Bengaluru and when he will take charge... The Chief Minister wants to keep with him the BDA (Bangalore Development Authority) and the BMRDA (Bangalore Metropolitan Region Development Authority), while he wants to give the Bengaluru in-charge minister control over the GBA (Greater Bengaluru Authority) and the five non-existent corporations... The Chief Minister must give the people of Karnataka a fully empowered minister for Bengaluru, whom the people can hold accountable...

WHY ARE NEWBORNS GIVEN THIS VACCINE? Watch Full Episode Here: In this Rogue Reloaded update, Lara Logan revisits her conversation with Aaron Siri to take a closer look at the Hepatitis B vaccine given to newborns. Lara breaks down the commonly cited risks and statistics, questioning why a vaccine tied to specific transmission factors is administered to infants immediately after birth. She highlights the distinction between rare cases of maternal transmission and the broader policy applied across all newborns. The issue raised here is not just about the numbers. It is about whether parents are fully informed and empowered to make that decision for their child. If the risk is low, should the choice be clearer? And are parents always told they have one? This is about informed consent, parental rights, and transparency in medical decision-making.

#TRANSCRIBED The U.S. warned that it is going to use “tools at its disposal” to hold Rwanda accountable, a "spoilers to peace”, referring to both Rwanda and M23. READ THE FULL TRANSCRIPT OF THE UNITED STATES' DURING TODAY'S UN SECURITY COUNCIL MEETING The United States is profoundly concerned and deeply disappointed by the renewed outbreak of violence in Eastern DRC. Today, I want to share additional information on the scale and sophistication of Rwanda’s involvement in the region. Since its re-emergence in 2021, Rwanda has maintained strategic control over its proxy armed group, M23, as well as M23’s political wing, the Congo River Alliance, also known as the AFC. Rwanda has deployed M23 and the AFC to further its geopolitical ambitions in Eastern DRC. Kigali has been directly involved in planning and executing the war, providing both military and political direction to M23 and the AFC. For years, the Rwandan Defence Forces (RDF) have supplied material, logistical, and training support to M23, and have fought alongside them in the DRC with approximately 5,000 to 7,000 troops as of early December — not accounting for any additional deployments during the recent escalation. In recent months, Rwanda has deployed multiple surface-to-air missile systems and other heavy, sophisticated weaponry into North and South Kivu to support M23 in its ongoing conflict with the DRC. Just this past weekend, M23 and Rwandan forces launched an offensive to seize Uvira, with RDF forces co-located on the frontlines with M23 fighters. We also have credible reports of increased use of suicide drones and artillery by both M23 and Rwanda, including artillery strikes into Burundi. Rather than a march toward peace — as seen in recent weeks under the leadership of President Trump through the Washington Accords — Rwanda is instead dragging the region back into greater instability and war. In light of the commitments made in Washington, we are deeply concerned about the continued presence of Rwandan military forces on Congolese soil in support of M23. The United States will use every tool at our disposal to hold accountable the spoilers of peace. We call on Rwanda to uphold its commitments and to fully recognize the Democratic Republic of Congo’s sovereign right to defend its territory, including the right to invite Burundian forces onto its land in response to aggression. We are engaging with all parties to urge restraint and to prevent further escalation — including calling for an end to hostile and ethnically charged anti-Tutsi rhetoric. As this Council continues to negotiate the renewal of the MONUSCO mandate, the United States will seek to ensure that the mission is empowered to support both the Doha and Washington agreements. While the parties themselves bear full responsibility for implementing these agreements, MONUSCO must have the freedom and capability to operate — including unimpeded mobility and logistical support. It is a sad hypocrisy that UN peacekeepers are under siege from forces backed by a UN member state — a state which also contributes troops to peacekeeping missions. The months-long M23 blockade on MONUSCO has severely impaired its ability to operate in and around Goma, as many have highlighted today. Furthermore, Rwanda continues to deploy surface-to-air missiles and conducts spoofing and jamming operations, effectively grounding MONUSCO’s air assets. Under such conditions, how can MONUSCO succeed? We demand the immediate cessation of these obstructions, which violate Rwanda’s and M23’s obligations under the Doha and Washington Agreements. The United States remains firm in its support for MONUSCO and its critical role in realizing these historic agreements, which we believe hold the potential to finally end decades of suffering in Eastern DRC.

$TINUBU AND HIS PLANS FOR THE NORTH. Tinubu’s deep-seated animosity towards the north are no longer the mere talks, many of us dismissed the warnings as mere political banter before he took office, but his actions since then have exposed his real intentions. Let’s not forget that this is the same man who, as a senator, openly declared he doesn’t believe in a united Nigeria. At the time, we naively assumed it was just rhetoric to appease his Southwestern base, but now it’s clear we misjudged the hatred he harbors for the North. Let me jog your memory about a dark chapter that was conveniently buried during the 2023 campaign by the South media. When Tinubu was Governor of Lagos, the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC), a militia he allegedly sponsored, armed, and empowered, unleashed violence on Northerners in Lagos. They killed and drove us out, terrorizing our people to the point that respected Northern clerics placed curses on him. Yet, this story was suppressed, and many young Northerners remained unaware until after we made the grave error of backing him in the election. Digging into his past after his victory revealed this ugly truth and confirmed his contempt for us. There were also whispers that Sunday Igboho, another Southwestern agitator, received backing from certain powerful figures, rumors we ignored at our peril. We should have paid closer attention. The signs of Tinubu’s disdain became undeniable early in his administration. When it came to appointments, he handpicked the most capable individuals from the South while deliberately selecting less qualified, mediocre figures from the North. This wasn’t an accident—it was a calculated move to undermine us. Some might try to spin this and say it because the man I support, but the pattern is clear, if Tinubu truly cared about the North, he wouldn’t have sidelined our best. Then came the media onslaught. While we were still asleep, oblivious to the betrayal, our so-called allies, people we stood with to get Tinubu elected, began subtly branding us as terrorist sympathizers. Whether they were paid to do it or not, the shift was unmistakable and reeks of a coordinated effort. Take the case of the 71 children from Kano, aged 10 to 15, locked up in Kuje prison for nearly 100 days after protesting hunger. Our “friends” turned on us again, labeling these desperate kids as terrorists and accusing us of hypocrisy for defending them against a government that’s made their lives unbearable. Open your eyes, this isn’t random; it’s part of the plan. Look at how division is being sown among us Northerners. If you think the rising “Middle Belt” narrative isn’t being fueled by outside forces, you’re fooling yourself. It’s a deliberate campaign, fully funded to fracture our unity and weaken the North even further. Then there’s the relocation of federal agencies to Lagos under the guise of “better functionality.” I was in Lagos three days ago, and I can tell you the rumors of shifting the Federal Capital Territory there are no longer just talk—there’s a clear agenda at play. Tinubu’s government is pouring federal funds into Lagos, transforming it into the center of everything. The moment you arrive, you can see the disparity. Finally, after the recent killings in Uromi, did you notice the loud, unified calls to expel Northerners from the South? This isn’t a coincidence—it’s a well-orchestrated move. If you know our “friends” and their tactics, you’ll recognize the pattern. Northern Nigeria, this is a wake-up call! Tinubu’s hatred isn’t hidden anymore, it’s in his actions, his policies, and the voices he empowers. We can’t afford to stay silent or divided any longer. The evidence is all around us.$

TINUBU AND HIS PLANS FOR THE NORTH. Tinubu’s deep-seated animosity towards the north are no longer the mere talks, many of us dismissed the warnings as mere political banter before he took office, but his actions since then have exposed his real intentions. Let’s not forget that this is the same man who, as a senator, openly declared he doesn’t believe in a united Nigeria. At the time, we naively assumed it was just rhetoric to appease his Southwestern base, but now it’s clear we misjudged the hatred he harbors for the North. Let me jog your memory about a dark chapter that was conveniently buried during the 2023 campaign by the South media. When Tinubu was Governor of Lagos, the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC), a militia he allegedly sponsored, armed, and empowered, unleashed violence on Northerners in Lagos. They killed and drove us out, terrorizing our people to the point that respected Northern clerics placed curses on him.

Donald Trump’s obsession with lecturing Jews on how we should vote is disgusting and dangerous. American Jews aren’t your props, Mr. President. This is his first time doing it since the explosion of far-right antisemitism, so his audacity must be called out. I'm not saying that Trump is an antisemite, and I don't believe he is one; that's JD Vance who said that Trump "could be the next Hitler." I'm not saying that; I am saying that he's a plain and simple narcissist who, like everything else in his life, exploits Jews to his benefit but doesn't care about them. Trump normalized and empowered a cesspool of hateful crackpots who, in the name of freedom of speech, pushed antisemitism into the mainstream. JD Vance is officially the zookeeper, petting all the animals and ensuring they are being treated nicely and handled with care, and if someone says something like, "Hey, those animals are dangerous," he blames us Jews, but it was Trump who opened the cage. His moody relationship with Netanyahu is not what makes him pro- or anti-Jewish. To me it's more of a factor that he can't fully denounce and disavow Holocaust deniers and Hitler fanboys like Nick Fuentes, full stop. This isn't about free speech; no one asked to have Fuentes jailed, but his hateful views shouldn't be normalized or treated as cute opinions. We all see on an hourly basis how Trump deals with someone he REALLY doesn't approve of. Moving the embassy doesn’t buy absolution for empowering people who want us gone. Steve Bannon at TPUSA's America Fest last month literally used the "embassy move" as a reason why he should be listened to when he vouches for Tucker and other crackpots because "you can't get a better defender of Israel than Steve Bannon. In the White House, I'm the one that pushed initially hard to move the embassy to Jerusalem." Please spare me the “most pro-Israel and pro-Jewish president ever” talking points. He's the most "pro-Trump president ever," solely focused on his interests. He won't denounce the most significant cancer of hate in America, Tucker Carlson, because "he's nice to me," but he'll have 2am Truth Social explosions at Tucker if he says something mean about him. Once Tucker apologizes to him, all is good. It's all about him. After Oct. 7, the most horrific day on the Jewish calendar since the Holocaust, President Biden traveled to Israel and spoke about the relationship of the U.S. and Israel and not about himself. This is because he saw it as a relationship between two allied countries, and that's what it is. Trump sees it as a relationship between himself and how much Israel's PM will kiss his ring. He repeatedly said after Oct. 7 how bad it is for Bibi, not for the people of Israel, for Bibi, because that's what he sees—how Bibi treats him. He was still furious at him for congratulating Biden on winning the election; it's all about him. Bibi must travel to Mar-a-Lago, create bogus Israel peace prizes, and say, "You're the best president," just as I tell my toddler, "You're the best boy." When Biden had his issues with Bibi, he kept making it clear again and again to the people of Israel that he and Bibi disagree currently, but even if it's out in the open, he'll help protect them from Iran if necessary, and he did. After Oct. 7, Biden spoke to Jewish leaders from his heart about how he takes his family to visit Auschwitz to teach them about the Holocaust. I have never heard him demand that Jews vote in a specific way. Trump despicably told parents of hostages who were captured in Gaza that their kids were captured because of Biden and how great he is. I listened to Trump on the first anniversary of Oct 7; all he spoke about was him, himself, and Donald Trump. And that, if not for the rigged elections, it would have never happened. My point is that Trump is a master in manipulating people's minds; he does the big moves to create headlines, hoping everyone buys it, and then demands publicly absolute loyalty. Enough.

Another Extraordinarily Rare Paletinian Docu Film "Arna's Children" (2004) – A Profound Tribute to Resistance in All Its Forms 📑🔖Bookmark and share if possible, these film are critical viewing - Jenin, Jenin (2002) in link My Review As someone deeply committed to the Palestinian cause and a firm believer in the legitimacy—and divine beauty—of armed resistance against occupation, I recently revisited Arna's Children (2004), directed by Juliano Mer Khamis, at a screening along with friends as part of a project they're working on. This documentary remains one of the most powerful and unflinching portrayals of Palestinian life under siege, and it resonates even more strongly today. The film follows Arna Mer-Khamis, a Jewish Israeli woman who turned her back on her Zionist upbringing to stand with the oppressed. After marrying a Palestinian and witnessing the horrors of displacement and occupation, she founded a children's theatre and alternative education program in the Jenin refugee camp during the First Intifada. When schools were shut down, Arna created a space for kids to express rage, fear, and dreams through drama and play—channelling their trauma into creative defiance. Juliano, her son (with one foot in both worlds), captured those joyful, fiery workshops from 1989 to 1996: children laughing, performing, imagining futures beyond the checkpoints and demolitions. It's a beautiful testament to how art can nurture dignity and resistance even in the darkest conditions. But the heart of the film—and what makes it so raw—is what happens next. After Arna's death from cancer, Juliano returns to Jenin in 2002, amid the ruins of the massive Jewish invasion that destroyed much of the camp, including the theatre she built. The bright boys he once directed have become young men forged by endless humiliation, home demolitions, killings, and siege. Several joined armed resistance: Ashraf and Ala led fighters in the heroic Battle of Jenin; Yussef and Nidal carried out a martyrdom operation in Hadera in 2001. Others were martyred in confrontations with occupation forces. From my perspective, these paths are not tragic failures or "lost potential"—they are the inevitable, courageous response when every peaceful avenue is crushed. The theatre taught them expression and pride; occupation taught them there was no other way to reclaim their humanity. Armed struggle, including martyrdom operations, becomes a sacred act of defiance and sacrifice—divine in its purity, an offering in the face of overwhelming evil. The film shows this continuum honestly: the same fire that fuelled their childhood performances burned through to resistance in adulthood. As some Palestinian voices and writers (like those in Jadaliyya and Electronic Intifada) have noted, it blurs false binaries between "violent" and "non-violent" resistance—both are part of the same epic struggle for freedom. To be fair and show the full spectrum of Palestinian cinematic voices and discussions: the film has sparked nuanced conversation even within pro-Palestine and solidarity circles. Some have critiqued its mournful tone—intercutting joyful childhood footage with funerals, martyrdom posters, and losses—as potentially leaning toward sorrow or regret about the turn to armed struggle, rather than outright celebration of those heroic choices. Others have raised concerns that, despite clearly blaming the occupation for manufacturing no alternatives, the structure might risk overshadowing the full range of steadfastness (sumud) that Palestinians embody daily through non-armed means like cultural persistence, community organizing, and everyday endurance. These points come from reflections in solidarity spaces, where the goal is always to honour resistance in its totality without diminishing any form. Yet from a pro -resistance standpoint, these critiques often miss the film's deeper power. Juliano never condemns the armed actions—he presents them factually, in raw context. The grief is real (for lost friends, a destroyed community), but it's not rejection. Many in the Palestinian solidarity movement hail it as essential testimony that humanizes fighters and martyrs, showing how occupation leaves no other viable path for so many. It honours Arna's legacy not as naive pacifism but as allyship that empowered dignity, which—when systematically crushed—leads to justified uprising. Ultimately, Arna's Children is a masterpiece of resistance cinema. It doesn't sanitize realities or preach; it bears witness. It celebrates the beauty of martyrdom as divine sacrifice while exposing the brutal system that demands it. Watch it if you haven't—it's hard, but necessary. It reminds us that Palestinian resistance, in theatre or on the frontlines, is one unbroken thread of sumud and struggle. And to you, my beloved shuhada’—Yussef, Nidal, Ashraf, Ala, and every child of Arna who rose like dawn fire to meet the oppressor: Your blood is not spilled; it is planted. It blooms in the olive roots, whispers through the wind over Jenin’s broken stones, and lights the path for every new generation that refuses to kneel. In your martyrdom, you have become eternal light—closer to Allah than the stars, wrapped in the mercy that only the pure of heart can know. You did not die; you ascended, offering your very souls as the most radiant prayer against tyranny. I carry your names in my chest like sacred verses, feeling the warmth of your sacrifice every time I breathe the name of Palestine. You are not gone—you live in the pulse of resistance, in the tear that falls and turns to resolve, in the vow we renew at every Fajr: we will not forget, we will not falter, until your gardens are free and your light floods every corner of this stolen land. Ya shuhada’ al-aqsa, ya abna’ Arna, rest in the highest gardens, and know that your fire still burns in Jenin. We honour you not with words alone, but with our lives—until victory, until return, until Jannah embraces you fully. Free Palestine. In eternal love and unbreakable faith

👩‍👩‍👧‍👦👩‍👩‍👧‍👦👩‍👩‍👧‍👦PI NETWORK NEWS:🌍 Global GCV Ambassadors, Let’s Reflect and Reignite Our Purpose! 🔥 On May 31, 2025, Ms. Lumari delivered a powerful and heartfelt message to all Head Ambassadors and Education Ambassadors around the world. Her words are a wake-up call — a reminder that this movement only grows stronger through our action, unity, and unwavering commitment. As we enter a new month, let us take her message to heart. Let us stand together, share the Buy Back Campaign, and guide pioneers with courage and leadership. 💬 Below is the full speech from Ms. Lumari — please read, reflect, and take action. Together, we are the driving force behind the future of Pi. Together, we protect the value we believe in. 💪⚡ --------------------- "Global GCV Ambassadors Meeting May 31, 2025 Hello everyone — to all our amazing Head Ambassadors, Education Ambassadors, and most especially to our beloved Ms. Doris Yin. Your dedication and passion are what keep this movement alive and growing every day. I’m truly grateful to be with you all today as we gather once again to push forward with purpose and heart. This meeting is a follow-up to our last gathering, but today feels even more urgent — because we need to come together now more than ever. And I’ll be honest: I’ve noticed that only a few are really paying attention to our calls and responsibilities. So here’s a tough but important question: Do we really want to win? If your answer is yes, then it’s time to show it — not just with words, but with action. Today is May 31 — the last day of the month. Tomorrow is June — a fresh start, a new opportunity to realign with our mission. That’s why we are urging everyone to fully commit to the Buy Back Campaign. We need to make reposting the Buy Back Campaign a habit. Right now, only a few are consistently sharing it. Our campaign should be everywhere — loud and proud. We’ll keep monitoring reposting activity. Just two weeks ago, we reached 70% reposting — but now we’re back down to 20%. Reposting is easy. It only takes a few seconds. So please, let’s do it — consistently. It shows we are proud ambassadors of this movement. To all Head Ambassadors and Education Ambassadors: You each play critical roles. Head Ambassadors — you are the drivers of the Buy Back Campaign. - Your leadership is what makes this movement come alive in your countries. You are responsible for: Coordination, setting national goals, tracking progress, ensuring full engagement and maintaining consistent communication. You are also tasked with recording and reporting Pi purchases in your country. These reports come directly to me and are crucial to measuring our collective impact. Education Ambassadors — you are the heart of understanding. - Your mission is not just to share information — but to inspire and move people. - Host regular training sessions. - Make sure every pioneer understands why buying Pi matters. - It’s not enough for them to just hear the message — they need to feel it, to know that their participation matters deeply. Walk them through the Buy Back process if needed. Make it simple. Even better — lead by example. When they see you doing it, they’ll feel empowered to do the same. This is how we multiply efforts — and scale our impact. Education is not just teaching — it’s mobilizing. So why do we have a Buy Back Campaign? Because we must buy back Pi from the exchanges — to protect the value we’ve built with our own hands and hearts. When pioneers buy even just 10 or 20 Pi, we’re pulling it away from speculators — and bringing it back into the hands of our committed community. That act: - Strengthens our economy - Stabilizes Pi’s value and - Shows the world our unity. Here’s the strategic insight: When Pi on exchanges runs out, launching Open Mainnet becomes much easier. That’s our goal. To act now, not later. Why do we believe we can empty the exchanges? Because the numbers are on our side. - About 14 million pioneers have migrated their Pi. - 84% — more than 11 million people — own less than 10 Pi. They are the silent majority. If even a small portion buys back just 10 or 20 Pi, it will trigger a transformation we can’t stop. What’s missing? - Direction. - Purpose. - Courage. If every pioneer chips in, we make history. Let’s break it down: - 1 million pioneers buying back 20 Pi = 20 million Pi back in the ecosystem - 5 million = 100 million Pi - 11 million = enough to drain the liquidity and protect our future Think about this: Two Cups of Coffee. That’s all it takes to buy back 10 Pi today on a CEX. Do you drink coffee every day? Then you can buy back Pi. So ask yourself: What do you want more — your daily caffeine, or economic freedom? And what if all 70 million pioneers acted?If each one held or recovered just 20 Pi — that’s 1.4 billion Pi back in pioneer hands. That’s more than enough to protect our whole ecosystem — and give us the power to decide our future. Starting June 7, 2025 — All Head Ambassadors must begin submitting regular reports on Pi purchases made in your country. These reports are vital to the success of the Buy Back Campaign. Also, please post these Pi purchases on X (formerly Twitter). Why? Because people imitate what they see. When they see others buying Pi — they’re more likely to do it themselves. That’s why visibility matters. That’s why social proof is powerful. Let’s show the strength of our movement. Let’s inspire trust and action through consistency. Together, we rise. Thank you.

If your answer is yes, then it’s time to show it — not just with words, but with action. Today is May 31 — the last day of the month. Tomorrow is June — a fresh start, a new opportunity to realign with our mission. That’s why we are urging everyone to fully commit to the Buy Back Campaign. We need to make reposting the Buy Back Campaign a habit. Right now, only a few are consistently sharing it. Our campaign should be everywhere — loud and proud. We’ll keep monitoring reposting activity. Just two weeks ago, we reached 70% reposting — but now we’re back down to 20%. Reposting is easy. It only takes a few seconds. So please, let’s do it — consistently. It shows we are proud ambassadors of this movement. To all Head Ambassadors and Education Ambassadors: You each play critical roles. Head Ambassadors — you are the drivers of the Buy Back Campaign. - Your leadership is what makes this movement come alive in your countries. You are responsible for: Coordination, setting national goals, tracking progress, ensuring full engagement and maintaining consistent communication. You are also tasked with recording and reporting Pi purchases in your country. These reports come directly to me and are crucial to measuring our collective impact. Education Ambassadors — you are the heart of understanding. - Your mission is not just to share information — but to inspire and move people. - Host regular training sessions. - Make sure every pioneer understands why buying Pi matters. - It’s not enough for them to just hear the message — they need to feel it, to know that their participation matters deeply. Walk them through the Buy Back process if needed. Make it simple. Even better — lead by example. When they see you doing it, they’ll feel empowered to do the same. This is how we multiply efforts — and scale our impact. Education is not just teaching — it’s mobilizing. So why do we have a Buy Back Campaign? Because we must buy back Pi from the exchanges — to protect the value we’ve built with our own hands and hearts. When pioneers buy even just 10 or 20 Pi, we’re pulling it away from speculators — and bringing it back into the hands of our committed community. That act: - Strengthens our economy - Stabilizes Pi’s value and - Shows the world our unity. Here’s the strategic insight: When Pi on exchanges runs out, launching Open Mainnet becomes much easier. That’s our goal. To act now, not later. Why do we believe we can empty the exchanges? Because the numbers are on our side. - About 14 million pioneers have migrated their Pi. - 84% — more than 11 million people — own less than 10 Pi. They are the silent majority. If even a small portion buys back just 10 or 20 Pi, it will trigger a transformation we can’t stop. What’s missing? - Direction. - Purpose. - Courage. If every pioneer chips in, we make history. Let’s break it down: - 1 million pioneers buying back 20 Pi = 20 million Pi back in the ecosystem - 5 million = 100 million Pi - 11 million = enough to drain the liquidity and protect our future Think about this: Two Cups of Coffee. That’s all it takes to buy back 10 Pi today on a CEX. Do you drink coffee every day? Then you can buy back Pi. So ask yourself: What do you want more — your daily caffeine, or economic freedom? And what if all 70 million pioneers acted?If each one held or recovered just 20 Pi — that’s 1.4 billion Pi back in pioneer hands. That’s more than enough to protect our whole ecosystem — and give us the power to decide our future. Starting June 7, 2025 — All Head Ambassadors must begin submitting regular reports on Pi purchases made in your country. These reports are vital to the success of the Buy Back Campaign. Also, please post these Pi purchases on X (formerly Twitter). Why? Because people imitate what they see. When they see others buying Pi — they’re more likely to do it themselves. That’s why visibility matters. That’s why social proof is powerful. Let’s show the strength of our movement. Let’s inspire trust and action through consistency. Together, we rise. Thank you.

Israel is the excuse to snatch away freedoms we once took for granted: In interviews and a comment article over the weekend, the UK education secretary Bridget Phillipson made clear she plans to exploit the pause in the Gaza genocide to snuff out criticism of Israel’s criminal actions – and, of course, her own government’s collusion in that criminality. Naturally, the British establishment media have been keen to amplify her message that there will be painful consequences both for individuals who continue protesting against Israeli atrocities and for institutions, such as universities, that mistakenly assume they have a duty to uphold centuries-old freedoms by tolerating such protests. These protests, let us remember, are fully in line with a ruling last year from the International Court of Justice, the world’s highest court, which declared: a) Israel is illegally occupying Palestinian territory and enforcing a system of apartheid rule over the Palestinian populations there – and has been doing so for decades. b) Western governments are obligated to do what they can to bring that illegal occupation and Israel’s apartheid system to an end as quickly as possible. Instead, those same governments are violating the ruling, and international law, both by continuing to support Israel’s criminality and by preventing their own citizens from putting pressure on them to end their support. The government of Keir Starmer, a former human rights lawyer, has even categorised protest against genocide as “support for terrorism”. For the first time in British history, a direct-action group, Palestine Action, has been banned as a terrorist organisation – in its case, for targeting weapons factories in Britain arming Israel’s genocide. It is now illegal to express any support for the group. In a commentary in the Sunday Express, Phillipson said she wanted the government’s campaign against free speech to go even further to protect Israel. She intends to import to our shores Donald Trump’s full-frontal assault on academic freedom. She has written to vice-chancellors warning them that their universities face fines and public funding cuts should they allow students to protest on campus against Israeli genocide and apartheid. She added: “I’m clear the buck stops with universities when it comes to ridding their campuses of hate. Institutions have my full backing to use their powers to do so and keep their students safe.” But as the rest of the article made clear, the universities don’t just have her “backing” to act against the protesters. They will be compelled to crack down on protests against Israeli apartheid and genocide – what she calls “hate” – or face stiff financial penalties. This comes in the wake, as Phillipson notes, of separate plans announced by home secretary Shabana Mahmood to give the police further powers to outlaw protests that have a “cumulative impact”. In other words, the police will be empowered to crush the very kind of protests that discomfit governments the most – those that are repeated because there is a strength of popular feeling to which the government is utterly unresponsive. It should hardly need pointing out that western governments are most likely to be unresponsive when it is their own criminal behaviours that are the target of protest, whether it is their collusion in Israel’s genocide or their collusion with corporations to gut meaningful action to halt climate breakdown. Though you would not know it from the media’s cheering, what the British government is doing is stripping out the last vestiges of the right to protest, a right that has been under relentless assault in the UK for the past 40 years. Phillipson’s Sunday interview with Trevor Philips on Sky was illustrative. He pushed the education secretary to be even more draconian in hollowing out speech and protest rights, as well as academic freedom. In turn, Phillipson sought once again to rationalise the government’s demolition of the last pillars of a free society on familiar grounds: as a supposed fight against antisemitism. After conversations with Jewish students and their parents, Phillipson said she had come to appreciate that they are “worried about what it is to be a young Jewish person on campus at the moment in the UK, and we can’t tolerate that”. The reality is that the police already have plenty of powers to deal with what she called antisemitic “harassment and intimidation”. Forces have the government’s backing and wide social support to tackle real race hate. So why are the police not cracking down on these antisemites supposedly roaming our university campuses? The answer – the one Phillipson wants to conceal from us – is that, in the overwhelming majority of cases she’s referring to, Jewish students are not the victims of an attack or even of personal criticism. They have simply been made uncomfortable by the presence of other students exercising a basic democratic right to protest in the public space of a campus – in this case, against Israel’s genocide in Gaza and our own government’s material, diplomatic and financial support for it. Any discomfort felt by some Jewish students flows not from the actual protests but from the fact that these students have been raised as Zionists. They have been raised with a political ideology that makes them identify with Israel. They have chosen to associate their Jewish identity with a state the World Court has declared is both illegally occupying Palestinian territory and enforcing a system of apartheid rule over the Palestinian population. It is not the protesters making an association between Jews and Israel. It is the Zionist Jewish families Phillipson has spoken to – and non-Jews such as Phillipson and Sky’s Philips who think like them. There is a quick fix to this “problem”, one that does not involve shredding the right to protest and freedom of speech, or fining universities who allow students to protest. And that is for the British government, and the British media, to stop treating Israel like it is a normal member of the community of nations – after it has just committed genocide and, on a very best-case scenario, is about to return to a status quo in which Palestinians are brutally abused under systems of apartheid, ethnic cleansing and siege. It is for the British government and media to make clear to Zionist Jewish families, and those non-Jews who think like them, that it is not okay to identify with a criminal state, or to expect any special privilege – protection from being offended – when others want to criticise that criminal state for its criminal actions. There are plenty of British Jews who do not identify with Israel. In fact, many are repulsed by its actions and take part in anti-genocide demonstrations like the one at the weekend in London. Anyone offended by the protests needs to engage in some serious soul-searching. Their offence signals not just an identification with Israel, but an endorsement of its actions, including its genocide and apartheid rule over Palestinians. So why is the government getting this issue so wrong? Here we get to the nub of the matter. The British establishment, including the government and media, are not a disinterested party simply concerned with protecting Jews. Rather, they are an elite desperately trying to protect their own interests in a system of US-driven military supremacy that confers on western powers a sense of their complete entitlement to control over the world’s material resources, most especially in the oil-rich Middle East. Israel is a central pillar of this criminal, militarised enterprise, which is why it needs to be protected at all costs. That cost has included hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who have been killed and maimed in Gaza over the past two years. But it also includes the freedoms and rights we once took for granted. Now we see that these freedoms were only ever on licence from the ruling class – a licence that is being revoked now that we have proved too unruly, too defiant, too rebellious.
