A massive police presence surrounded pro-Palestine activists protesting against the visit of Israeli President Isaac Herzog in Berlin. Protesters demanded accountability and justice for Israel’s crimes in Gaza. They criticized German complicity in weapons exports and called for Herzog to be sent to the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
Police encircled the protest from its onset, filming protesters, and later detained two activists. The Israeli President, warmly welcomed by the German elite, has previously stated: "There are no innocent people in Gaza." Prior to the visit, the protesters announced that they "cannot allow this visit to proceed without disruption" and affirmed their stance against welcoming a war criminal and Germany's active support of the genocide in Gaza.

Cross-border tensions between Israel and resistance forces in southern Lebanon have escalated once more. Just hours after a massive wave of Israeli airstrikes hit several villages in southern Lebanon, killing at least 11, a barrage of about 20 rockets was fired from Lebanon at the Israeli settlement of Kiryat Shmona in northern occupied Palestine.
Israel’s attacks at resistance groups and, especially, civilian targets in southern Lebanon have intensified over the last few days. Meanwhile, 71% of Israelis support carrying out a war on Lebanon, according to Israeli newspaper Maariv. Paired with large-scale Israeli military movement from Gaza to the Lebanese border and Israel looking to end its operations in the enclave, the likelihood of an Israeli invasion of Lebanon seems to become a reality.

Some of Spain’s most notorious fascists came together to commemorate the Nazi “Blue Division.” Marches and events were held at the graves of the La Almudena cemetery in Madrid on the anniversary of the Battle of Krasny Bor. Footage shows dozens, with some dressed up in Nazi uniforms, doing fascist salutes while holding Spanish flags and banners saying “anti-communists.”
The events were organized by the veterans’ organizations “National Brotherhood of the Blue Division” and the “Blue Division Foundation,” two associations linked to Spain’s fascist Falange party. Falange’s national head, Manuel Andrino, and several other leaders attended.
The Blue Division was a unit composed of Spanish volunteers who, as part of the Wehrmacht and alongside the Waffen-SS, fought the USSR during WWII, representing Spain’s involvement on the side of the Nazis in clear contrast with the official policy of “neutrality” maintained by Franco.

On Valentine's Day, we're reminded of Che Guevara's timeless quote about love being the guiding force of a true revolutionary. Taken from his well-known essay, "Man and Socialism in Cuba," the quote speaks to the profound connection between revolutionaries and humanity.
“Everyday you have to fight so that love for humanity can be transformed into concrete deeds, into acts that set an example, that mobilize.”

Tensions escalate in India as police continue to crack down on thousands of farmers as the protesters edge towards New Delhi. Massive contingents of police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed, firing large numbers of tear gas shells, rubber bullets, and water cannons at the protesters. Authorities have erected massive barricades, sealing the capital.
Various farmers’ unions have started marching towards the national capital, demanding minimum crop prices after unsuccessful negotiations with the far-right BJP government, a requirement they had already stipulated in 2021 when they consented to end their protest.
With Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government refusing to act on the previous demands, more than 100 trade unions have called for India’s “Farmer Protest 2.0.” The renewed protests come ahead of national elections that will likely start in April, possibly posing a threat to Modi’s government, which has ruled the country since 2014.

The EU can now call a state of emergency across the bloc and order social media companies to enforce a sweeping free speech crackdown.
The "crisis response mechanism" in the EU's new Digital Services Act uses the war on "disinformation" which it developed alongside NATO, as the pretext for unprecedented levels of censorship.
And noone is talking about it.

On this day in 1991, the US Air Force precision bombed a civil defense shelter in the Amiriyah neighborhood of Baghdad, Iraq, killing at least 408 civilians. Throughout the US-led Gulf War air campaign, over 88,000 tons of bombs were dropped over Iraq in a matter of only five weeks, effectively bombing the Middle Eastern country back to the stone age. Unfortunately, the bombing just marked the beginning of what would go on to be a series of countless war crimes committed by the US and its allies in Iraq, as a decade later, they would go on to invade and devastate the country for years to come.

A protester in Kinshasa, DR Congo, tears down the EU and Belgian flags from a luxury hotel as a large crowd cheers. The latest uprising against the West is challenging colonial legacies in Congo, demanding an end to Western complicity in Congo's armed conflict, which protesters say has already cost 10 million lives.
The M23 rebels are threatening to take over the strategically important city of Goma, home to 2 million people. Part of the war includes the world's most extensive and most expensive UN mission, MONUSCO, which has become the target of protests after criticism of its inaction against the advancing rebels and scandals of sexual violence against civilians.
In Kinshasa, police dispersed protests by firing tear gas after people set fire to barricades. In recent days, anti-Western protests have led to attacks on Western embassies and institutions. Protesters criticize the Western looting of the country and profit from conflict in the DR Congo.

At least three protesters were killed by security forces during ongoing unrest in the West African country of Senegal, including a 16-year-old. The country is going through its worst political crisis since independence from colonial power France in 1960.
President Macky Sall’s decision to postpone elections on short notice, delaying them by nearly a year, has sparked widespread outrage. This move has effectively granted him significant extensions to his term without an electoral mandate, leading to mass protests nationwide.
The pre-election period witnessed over 1,000 arrests of opposition figures, journalists, and members of civil society, prompting accusations of a “constitutional coup.” In the latest wave of protests on Friday, Amnesty International reported over 200 arrests in a single day.
Senegal stands out in West Africa as the only country that has not experienced a military coup, earning it the reputation of being the “last bastion of the West” in the region.

Remember when Egypt vocally rejected Israeli plans for forced displacement at the beginning of the war? New alarming reports from human rights organizations reveal that Egypt has quietly begun building camps with meter-high walls, presumably for a coming exodus out of Gaza.
More than 1.5 million Palestinians are trapped in Rafah against the border with Egypt, bracing for the threat of an Israeli invasion, which is feared to be the worst by far.
Despite the International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) order for Israel to prevent genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, Israel is instead planning to commit the war crime of forced displacement against 1.5 million people.

On this day in 2003, millions of people in over 600 cities worldwide took to the streets to protest the impending US-led war on Iraq, the largest protests in human history.
Then, US President George Bush and UK Prime Minister Tony Blair ignored their citizens' calls. They had to protect their lie, the lie that “Iraq could launch a biological or chemical attack within 45 minutes” — the main pretext used for their brutal and illegal war.
An investigation by the UK government found that intelligence officials knew ahead of time that the war would cause massive instability and the collapse of Iraqi society, but despite this knowledge and the biggest protest in world history, Bush and Blair went ahead with the war anyway.

For Black History Month, we remember Claudette Colvin, who, at the age of 15, was arrested in Montgomery for refusing to give up her seat to a white woman on a racially segregated bus. Colvin’s refusal occurred nine months before Rosa Parks’s famous action sparked the Civil Rights Movement.
A white woman boarded the bus, finding all the “white seats” occupied. Black passengers were expected to relinquish their seats. The bus driver, Robert W. Cleere, instructed Colvin and three other black women to move. They obliged, except for Colvin, who refused.
“The spirit of history held me in place,” Colvin reflected. The bus driver called the police, and Colvin was forcibly removed from the bus, arrested, and handcuffed.
Although Colvin’s refusal predates Parks’ similar stand by nine months, it received limited recognition. Colvin later stated that Black organizations preferred Parks as a symbol because “she was an adult. They didn’t think teenagers would be reliable.”

Did you know Valentine’s Day and Hawaii’s rebellion against the infamous colonialist James Cook share the same date?

This is how Germans portray Palestinians at their traditional carnival in Cologne: as dogs with collars in Palestinian colors, labeled with the words “hatred” and “violence.” In addition, “anti-Semitism” is represented as a woman wearing a keffiyeh.
This year’s carnival in Cologne, the biggest in Germany, echoes the dehumanizing rhetoric of Israel’s fascist government, which also degrades Palestinians as animals.
In most countries, carnival is a display of culture; in Germany, it is too: a culture of racism under the fake cover of anti-antisemitism.

India is fortifying Delhi against oncoming protests: Farmers across India are heading to the capital, demanding urgent government substitution to tackle the environmental and financial crises. The far-right ruling BJP party has ordered police to barricade the city with barbed wire and nail barriers.
Footage captured clashes between protesters and police. Over 10,000 people have joined the protests despite the government’s ban on gatherings and the shutdown of internet services.
The protests echo India’s farmers’ rebellion in 2021, which saw farmers breaking through police barricades to occupy Delhi’s historic Red Fort palace complex. The protests were sparked by reforms that essentially handed over India’s agricultural market to large corporations in the Global North.
The protests pushed Indian PM Modi to halt the reforms in 2021. More than 100 trade unions called for India’s “farmer protests 2.0,” with nationwide strikes announced next Friday.

Today, in 1968, 200 Black American sanitation workers in Memphis launched a strike against racial injustice and for workers’ rights following their colleague’s death caused by dangerous workplace conditions. As the movement grew in momentum, it faced brutal repression from authorities and racist attacks, also resulting in the death of civil rights movement leader Martin Luther King Jr. However, the protests were not dying down, with thousands in the streets demanding their equal rights, giving birth to the iconic civil rights movement slogan “I Am a Man.” But did the Memphis Sanitation Strike ultimately succeed? Read on.

Anti-Western protests are continuing in the capital of the DR Congo as people set fire to barricades outside the French embassy and UN vehicles. The protests are demanding an end to Western complicity in the worsening conflict in the DR Congo as M23 rebels threaten to take Goma, a strategically important city in the east.
Almost seven million people have been displaced by the armed conflict within the country's borders, with more than 135,000 of them displaced in just the last few weeks alone.
The UN mission, MONUSCO, has more than 17,000 staff in the Democratic Republic of Congo and has a budget of $1.1 billion for 2023, making it the world's most expensive peacekeeping force. However, MONUSCO has faced mounting criticism for not stopping the armed conflict, raising concerns about the true motives behind its presence.
The DR Congo is at the epicenter of the UN's sexual abuse scandal. It has the highest percentage of victims of sexual violence at the hands of UN troops.

Israel unleashed another wave of massive bombardment on Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip. At least 76 people have been killed so far, with hundreds injured as Israeli airstrikes targeted civilian homes, mosques and refugee tents. However, the numbers will likely rise as residents search the rubble for survivors.
It is reported that the bombing was carried out to cover an Israeli ground operation in the heart of the city. Israeli military sources claim that two Israeli hostages were rescued during the operation. “Only military pressure will lead to everyone’s release,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu added.
The bombing comes after Israel announced to extend its ground invasion of the Gaza Strip to Rafah, the only place left in the enclave in which Israeli troops have not yet set foot. At this time, over one million Palestinians, half of Gaza’s population, are seeking refuge in tents in Rafah, having turned the city into one of the most densely populated in the world.
