The country of freedom and ridiculous democracy.
The moment of the violent arrest of the economics professor of Emory University Caroline Fohlinin in the state of Georgia
After these scenes, there must be a position for all universities around the world to stand with the people of Palestine in Gaza. All hypocritical authorities and rulers who support the Nazi terrorist Israelis must be confronted.

Yes, Trump is actually hoping that you, his followers and millions of other American families suffer devastating financial harm in 2024, like the Great Depression of 1929.
He literally wants to "Make America Suffer Again", simply to benefit his own selfish ego.
Trump is not the patriot he pretends to be. His desire to terminate the U.S. Constitution and his attempts to overthrow American democracy are well documented facts.
When an American presidential candidate has the same hopes and schemes as America's enemies — something is very, VERY wrong.

Yıl 2003.
ABD askerleri Körfez savaşı sonrasında Irak hazinesine ait altınları ülkelerine götürürken Irak halkı hala kendilerinin bir diktatörün zulmünden kurtarıldıklarına ve ülkelerinin özgür, demokrat bir düzenle huzura kavuşacağına inanıyorlardı.
Sonuç hüsran ve gözyaşı.
.....
The year was 2003. While US soldiers were taking the gold belonging to the Iraqi treasury back to their country after the Gulf war, the Iraqi people still believed that they were saved from the tyranny of a dictator and that their country would find peace with a free, democratic order.
The result is frustration and tears.

The Sapeurs: Fashionable Figures Of Kinshasa
Kinshasa, the lively core of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), dances to the captivating blend of its bustling streets, where disorder and ingenuity merge harmoniously. In this vibrant tapestry of existence, a remarkable subculture arises, adorning the streets with sophistication and poise. They are known as the Sapeurs, the fashionable figures of Kinshasa, exemplifying style and refinement. Fashion to them is not a mere outfit, but a proclamation of resilience and individuality in the face of adversity.
Photographer: Biljana Jurukovski

THE HIGHEST GROSSING FILM OF 1960, AND REPORTEDLY THE FIRST THEATRICAL FILM JFK EVER WATCHED DURING HIS PRESIDENCY.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on theatrical poster art for "Spartacus," the 1960 American epic historical drama film starring Kirk Douglas in the title role of the slave who leads a rebellion against Rome and the events of the Third Servile War.
PIC #2: 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy (1917-1963), photographed during the 1960 Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles, California. 📸: Elliott Erwitt.
OVERVEIW: "The very first movie President Kennedy watched while in office wasn’t at the White House at all. Instead, Kennedy had to slip out to see director Stanley Kubrick’s "Spartacus" (1960), which White House projectionist Paul Fischer didn’t have a copy of, on account of the film’s 70mm projection requirements. The White House theater’s projectors could only handle 35mm films.
Kennedy crossed a picket line to watch Spartacus on Feb. 3, 1961 at the Warner Theatre, not far from the White House, though it wasn’t over a labor dispute. The American Legion was picketing the film over the film’s writer, Dalton Trumbo, who was a Communist caught up in the anti-Communist fervor of Hollywood in the 1950s.
Kennedy went to "Spartacus" with a friend, Paul “Red” Fay, who the president knew through his service in World War II. Fay was tasked with buying the tickets so that nobody would know the president would be in attendance. But the theater’s management found out somehow, as Fay would recall years later in an oral history, perhaps because Secret Service had to ensure the theater was safe. The President and Fay arrived a little late to the screening, hoping to sneak in without being noticed, but it was clear everyone was waiting for him. They even stopped the movie and rewound it to start from the beginning, something Kennedy only learned about later."
