'Not helping the community': George Floyd roommates, others slam BLM in new film
[NYPOST] One year after the real-estate buying binge of its founder was exposed by The Post, a new documentary dives deep into the murky finances of the Black Lives Matter Global Foundation — and meets some of the people it allegedly harmed.

“The Greatest Lie Ever Sold,” a film spearheaded by controversial conservative commentator Candace Owens, premiered Wednesday in Nashville at a screening attended by Kanye West, Ray J and Kid Rock.

In the documentary, the Daily Wire host examines what Patrisse Cullors, BLM’s self-described ‘”trained Marxist” co-founder, did with the $90 million that her group amassed after the May 2020 slaying of George Floyd, the Black man whose cries of “I can’t breathe” set off global protests when he died under the knee of a white Minneapolis police officer.

Cullors resigned from the national non-profit in 2021, a month after The Post revealed she had spent millions on real estate in the previous months — and the organization has remained mired in financial scandal. Cullors said her departure was unrelated to those “attacks,” and that she was leaving to focus on a book and TV deal. BLM has denied that any wrongdoing occurred.

#4  Gawd I hate modern fashion.

And remember when people made fun of "flair". Was even a bit in Office Space. Wasn't that long ago.

Afghanistan Only Country Denying Girls Access to Education: HRW
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] Heather Barr, Associate Director of the Women’s Rights Division at Human Rights Watch, dubs Afghanistan the "only country on the planet" to deny girls access to education, warning of the devastating impact of the Taliban
...Arabic for students...
action.

After the Taliban imposed a ban in September of 2021, it has been 389 days that girls in Afghanistan are restricted from attending secondary schools despite international calls for reconsideration.

"This is absolutely a shameful situation which makes Afghanistan the only country on the planet which systematically denies girls access to education because of gender," she added. "This is going to have a devastating impact."

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Terror groups: Palestinians must attack Israelis 'no matter the sacrifice'
[Jpost] Palestinian factions held a meeting on Friday in which they vowed to "respond to barbaric Zionist aggression."

The Joint Chamber of Resistance Factions in Gaza called on the "masses" of Palestinians in the West Bank on Friday to respond to Israel's "aggressions on Jerusalem and al-Aqsa, regardless of the results and no matter the sacrifices."

"We call upon our brothers, comrades, and our heroic fighters, especially the valiant Lions' Den group...to respond to the occupation’s aggression on Jerusalem and al-Aqsa, regardless of the results and no matter the sacrifices."

The statement came following a meeting of the Palestinian factions in which they vowed to "respond to barbaric Zionist aggression."

"The increase in the enemy's crimes against our people in Jerusalem and the desecration of [al-Aqsa]...is a bad omen for this occupation," the factions said in the statement. "It is a sign of its imminent demise and defeat."

"The enemy is everywhere," the factions warned before calling for all Palestinians to "recruit to defend the sanctities and teach the occupation harsh lessons in our people's strengths, anger and willingness to take revenge."

CLASHES CONTINUE ON FRIDAY MORNING
The faction meeting comes amid another wave of attacks and unrest in the West Bank, with the IDF conducting regular raids in the area as part of Operation Break the Wave.

On Friday morning, a Palestinian doctor and an armed gunman were killed amid clashes with IDF soldiers.

Palestinian reports initially reported that he was shot by a sniper but it was later revealed by the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades that he was a commander in the movement.

FACTIONS MEET AMID PALESTINIAN POWER STRUGGLE
The armed wing of the ruling Fatah faction also took responsibility for the shooting attack at the entrance to Shuafat refugee camp that claimed the life of Sgt. Noa Lazar.

The meeting also came amid an ongoing power struggle between Fatah, headed by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, and Hamas, the Islamist movement controlling the Gaza Strip. Each party is trying to establish bases of power in Jerusalem and present itself as the sole “defender” of the city.
