In this analysis, Nadine Sayegh argues that Western feminist & legal frameworks weren't built to recognize violence that doesn't fit a familiar victim. She traces how sexual violence in Israeli detention functions as a tool of occupation. Read: palestine-studies.org/en/node/1659...

The gas in those pumps was refined weeks ago, from oil extracted months ago, none of which came through the Straits of Hormuz. So why does it cost 15c more per litre than it did LAST Friday? I ask why, in @thestar.com: thestar.com/business/opi.... #canlab /2
thestar.com
Trump's war on Iran hasn't altered Canada's cost of making gas — at all. So why are we being hosed at the pumps?
Policy choices, not market forces of a war halfway around the world, explain the spike in prices, writes Jim Stanford, leading to unnecessary economy-wide inflation and higher interest rates.

Rodríguez, who was sworn in on 5 January as acting president to replace Maduro, and her brother Jorge, the head of the national assembly, secretly assured US and Qatari officials through intermediaries ahead of time that they would welcome Maduro’s departure, according to the sources.
