Water is a birthright and NOT a commodity. Water belongs to the earth, to other species, and to future generations. No corporation has the right to control it.

I still CANNOT believe humans were gifted a planet full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war.

The killing of a Palestinian footballer by Israeli forces on Monday has reignited calls for Fifa to ban Israel amid its ongoing genocide in Gaza. Saleem al-Ashqar, 32, was cycling in search of a gas cylinder when Israeli soldiers shot him in the town of al-Qarara, just outside Khan Younis. The Khadamat Khan Younis goalkeeper was taken to hospital but died of severe internal hemorrhaging and organ damage, a spokesperson for the Palestinian Football Association (PFA) said. “Despite medical efforts, the hospital's severely limited capabilities – exacerbated by the collapse of Gaza's health sector due to the ongoing war of extermination – made it impossible to control the internal bleeding,” Dima Youssef told the New Arab. “Given the severity of his injuries, Al-Ashqar passed away about two hours after arriving at the hospital.” The goalkeeper’s death brings the number of Palestinian athletes killed by Israel since October 2023 to 1,009, including at least 567 footballers. In a tribute on X, Turkey’s minister of sports Osman Aşkın Bak compared the 567 Palestinians murdered by Israel to the 572 footballers playing in the World Cup. Spanish-Moroccan sports journalist Leyla Hamed wrote that Fifa suspends football federations “almost every week” but repeatedly refused to issue a decision on Israel. “How much investigation does the most documented genocide in history need?” she asked. In 2024, the PFA asked Fifa to expel the Israel Football Association amid its genocide in Gaza. This March, Fifa finally announced it would not kick out Israel but fined its football authority $190,000 on charges relating to “discriminatory and racist abuse”. Meanwhile, it suspended Russia from the World Cup days after its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The body has been silent on the systematic targeting of Palestinian athletes since the start of the genocide in October 2023, drawing condemnation from advocacy groups including the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel.

This is why we said the games should have never taken place in the U.S. with these racist barbarians.

We have installed a permanent memorial at Anfield in tribute to Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva, on the eve of the first anniversary of their tragic passing ❤️

Today, as every day, we remember Diogo Jota and André Silva, who tragically passed away one year ago. Through immeasurable loss and incalculable pain, the impact they made and the legacies they left behind - not only within the footballing world, but in the hearts and minds of so many around the world - has shone through over the last 12 months. All of our love, support, thoughts and prayers continue to be with Diogo and André's families, friends and all those whose lives were touched by them. Forever in our hearts, forever our number 20 ❤️

Just awful to see senior Labour politicians, whose government has helped arm Israel's genocide in Gaza, now expressing sympathy for the victims they played their part in creating. This is gaslighting.

This is the kind of graph future documentaries pause on before saying, ‘By then, the warning signs were obvious.

"Saya sangat kecewa dengan AS dan FIFA. Mereka tahu AS akan melakukan hal ini kepada Iran, jadi mereka seharusnya tidak menjadwalkan ketiga pertandingan tersebut di AS. Segala sesuatunya bisa saja diubah." Carlo Ancelotti dlm konferensi pers sebelum laga Brazil vs Jepang saat ditanya bagaimana cara dia memotivasi pemainnya.. 👏

This is how the BBC reported a doctor being literally raped to death by Israeli forces.

Kate Middleton posted a video explaining why she did the Three peak challenge saying among other things that she wanted to give something back to the Royal Marsden and the people who helped her. Like hiking the mountain. Her husband is a billionaire who collects millions of rents from the NHS. Cancer charities are going bankrupt. Thousands have their cancer treatments delayed. Did they make a few million donations? Did they actually make some hefty contribution? Stopped collecting rent? Posting tear-jerking videos for popular consumption is laughable. There are 4 million British children living in poverty. These people are absolutely away from reality. Just got a triple raise. Kate Middleton gave something back by hiking a couple of mountains.

Liverpool's Greatest - No.17: Emlyn Hughes 💪

🚨 Jürgen Klopp Questions Controversial VAR Call That Broke Iran's Hearts Against Egypt 🗣“This isn't really about tactics or the quality of the football anymore. The only thing everyone will be talking about is the decision to disallow Iran's late goal. At a World Cup, every decision carries enormous weight. If VAR is going to overturn a goal in a moment like that, it has to be based on clear, undeniable evidence. I don't think we saw that here. The toughest part is what it did to the players and the supporters. They believed they had scored the goal that would send them into the Round of 16. They celebrated, they lived that moment, and then it was taken away. VAR was introduced to remove obvious mistakes, not to leave millions of people arguing over whether the right decision was made. If there's still this much uncertainty after watching the replays, then something has gone wrong. I feel for Iran because moments like these can define a generation. At the biggest tournament in football, everyone deserves decisions that are beyond doubt.”

The captain of Iran’s National Team, Mehdi Taremi, calls out FIFA and the U.S.: “This is a disaster World Cup. We can’t stay in the country and have to travel every time we play without any recovery. Now we can’t stay in Seattle and have to return to Tijuana. This is not fair.”
