I drew her with candombá flowers, endemic flowers of the Chapada Diamantina.

Purple suits Gabis so much.

Lula compares Israel's attacks on Palestinians in Gaza to Hitler's killing of Jews

Brazilian president Lula (PT) stated this Sunday 18th that what is happening in the Gaza Strip is not a war, but a genocide, and compared Israel's action to that of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler against the Jews.

“What is happening in the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian people does not exist at any other historical moment. In fact, it exists. When Hitler decided to kill the Jews,” he said.

Asked about the Brazilian government's decision to be the new donor to the UN Agency for Palestinian Refugees, Lula criticized the leaders of the countries that decided to suspend contributions. “When I see the rich world announce that it is stopping contributing to the humanitarian issue for the Palestinians, I wonder how much political awareness these people have?”, he said. “And how big is the heart of solidarity of these people who cannot see that in the Gaza Strip there is not a war happening, but a genocide?”

The president also questioned: “Who will help rebuild those houses that were destroyed? Who will repay the lives of 30 thousand people who have already died? 170 thousand who are injured. Who will give back the lives of children who died without knowing why they were dying? Is this enough to disturb the humanitarian sense of the planet’s political leaders?”

“It is not a war between soldiers and soldiers. It is a war between a highly prepared Army and women and children. Look, if there was an error in that institution that collects the money, find out who made the mistake. But do not suspend humanitarian aid for the people who have been trying to build their state for decades”, concluded Lula.

I'm actually quite proud of having voted for him. He was bold, Brazilian's newspapers are roasting him for saying the TRUTH, but is this kind of boldness that we need right now.

When upon life's billows you are tempest-tossed, when you are discouraged, thinking all is lost, COUNT YOUR MANY BLESSINGS, NAME THEM ONE BY ONE, AND IT WILL SURPRISE YOU WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE-

So we had racism against Spanish people and now we have racism against the Dutch? These coloniser countries' drivers really have a lot of audacity.

In the past, the daisy flower was considered the flower of maidens and even today it symbolizes youth, innocent love and sensitivity. This delicate flower also represents purity, peace, kindness and affection.

Character in the movie 'I'm Still Here,' Rubens Paiva investigated the US-funded coup plot in the 1962 Brazilian elections

Killed by the dictatorship, the federal deputy led a Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry that investigated US financing

Rubens Paiva, a former Brazilian congressman murdered by the Brazilian military dictatorship (1964-1985), became known after the release of the film 'I’m Still Here' (2024), directed by Walter Salles and starring Selton Mello as Rubens and Fernanda Torres as his wife, Eunice Paiva.

For her performance, Fernanda Torres was awarded Best Actress at the Golden Globes, and the film received three Oscar nominations on Thursday (23): Best Actress for Fernanda Torres, Best Film, and Best International Film.

Prior to the story being shown on screens, Rubens Paiva's parliamentary career reveals his political actions in confronting reactionary forces that, supported by the US government, planned the 1964 military coup that deposed then President João Goulart.

Elected a federal deputy in 1962 by the Brazilian Labor Party (PTB, in Portuguese), the same party that then-President João Goulart – dubbed Jango – belonged to, Paiva played a central role in the fight against the coup that was already taking shape in 1963: he was vice-president of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPI, in Portuguese), set up to investigate allegations of US funding of conservative politicians to destabilize and overthrow the Jango government.
