Lebanese turtle conservationist murdered by Israel

Lebanese environmental activist Mona Khalil, whose work helped turn a stretch of coastline in southern Lebanon into one of the eastern Mediterranean's most important nesting sites for endangered sea turtles, has died after being wounded in an Israeli strike.

Khalil, 76, was injured when her house on Mansouri beach, near the southern city of Tyre, was hit during Israeli attacks in southern Lebanon two weeks ago.

She died on Friday after several days in hospital, according to a local environmental group.

Her death came as Israeli air strikes intensified across southern Lebanon, raising concerns about renewed violence despite diplomatic efforts to maintain a fragile regional peace.

The BBC has reached out to the Israeli military for a response.

"She is a deeply committed environmental defender," Hisham Younes, the founder and president of Green Southerners, told the BBC.

"She used to talk about the beach like it was a person. Her bond to the sunset, her bond to the water and the turtles….she was really into conservation, and into the soul, the spirit of conservation."

 

Was Hamas using the turtles as shields?

Seems to me that the gene pool will handle this one with aplomb.

Good riddance to any of those "looksmaxxing" narcissists. The world needs far less narcissists, they are societal parasites.

Is Mitch McConnell dead?     This shouldn’t be a difficult question
to answer. The response is either “yes”, “no”, or something along
the lines of “he’s on life-support but appears to be brain dead.”

Laura Loomer(!!!) has claimed on 'X' that McConnell is “officially brain dead”.

Probably won't change his behaviour.

Yeah, I heard suicide as well. Mental health can be hard to completely come by. Obviously being in a tournament like this is an emotional high for certain countries, and then being knocked out is a profound low for certain ones. I'm sorry he didn't gain access to  help riding what might have been just a wave for him. Of course, I realize that part was unverified. It could have been an accident of some sort. 

RIP.

Politically untrustworthy.  

Mother Jones summarised Graham's career well...

"How Lindsey Graham, Eager to Serve Trump, Became a Useful Idiot for Putin"

During the 2016 GOP presidential primary, when Graham was
competing with the onetime reality TV celebrity, he blasted Trump
as a “demagogue” and a “race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot.”
He urged voters to tell Trump to “go to hell.” He predicted his party
would be “destroyed,” if it nominated Trump.

Yet after Trump won, Graham became a full-fledged Trump lackey.
He played golf with his new buddy and relished the access to power
he now possessed. After the 2020 election, he joined Trump’s effort
to pressure Republican Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger
to "rework" the state’s vote count so Trump would prevail.

And when Graham won a hard-fought Senate primary last month, he lavished
praise on Trump, exclaiming, “Mr. President, you’re not far behind God.”
