News from Belize, 16 June.

A motion for a Senate Inquiry has been filed by social partners to investigate the Belize-Portico Agreement.

The Special Select Committee will look into the validity of the agreement, communication and documentation related to it, and whether established procedures and investment policies were followed.

2. Attorney Michael Peyrefitte, asked to vouch for Barry Williams—an actor, seemingly with.at least two Russian pseudonyms, who is embroiled in the convoluted Belize ports saga—confirms he represented Williams in a case involving frozen funds, but denies knowledge of any current relevance of Williams' name in the Definitive Agreement saga.

3. The Port of Belize Limited has sent a second letter to call for an investigation into the Definitive Agreement.

The Belize Port Authority was not consulted during the drafting of the agreement and legislation.

Government ministers have condemned the agreement and the former Prime Minister has declared that Erwin Contreras had no authority to sign it without Cabinet approval.

4. Belize Sugar Industries (BSI) marked the end of their 56th sugar cane crop season with a small celebration.

There was a significant decline in sugar production during this season.

The industry still faces several challenges despite the end of the crop season.

5. A partnership between Belize's Ministry of Agriculture and the Mexican Agency for International Development Cooperation will benefit hundreds of farmers with $6 million in cash and bio inputs to transition towards environmentally friendly farming practices.

The project, dubbed Sembrando Vida Belize, mirrors a similar one in Mexico and was launched at the Yo Creek Agriculture Station in Orange Walk District.

The project's goal is to share Mexico's successful program with other countries and strengthen the region by working together towards sustainable agriculture practices.

6. Police Commissioner Chester Williams is seeking compensation for damages caused by a video aired on Channel 5 and Channel 7 regarding a gun license matter.

The Commissioner's attorney claims that the statement has brought disrepute to his client's name and is asking for a retraction, apology, legal fees, and damages caused.

Channel 7's attorney has responded, saying that the video aired was a paid political ad.

730 days...

To be honest, I can't believe it. It's already 10 years of war and 730 days of full-scale invasion.

I have not much to say, 'cause this war turned my life and the lives of other Ukrainians into a completely new reality. I am not sure I would ever "heal" from this all. Is it even possible?

Today, 24 February 2024... I wanna say thank you to the people who still support us in any way possible.

I wanna say thank you, to Ukrainians, who are dealing with it, doing all possible. I wanna say thank you to our defenders.

And... Please, if you have a possibility, light up the candle in memory of the ones, who won't ever meet new day. In memory of our civilians and heroes.

"Nobody would ever say something insensitive about X physical condition like they do Y mental condition" "Nobody would ever be racist towards X like they are towards Y" "No one would ever dare treat X religion like they do Y religion" "X gender/sexuality are never treated the way Y gender/sexuality are"

What if we stopped playing Oppression Olympics. What if we started showing some solidarity. What if we just stuck to describing the problem instead of detouring around to shit on someone we think isn't oppressed enough. What if we stopped making sweeping judgements on what issues other groups of people do or do not face based on vibes.

EKKO REMINISCING ABOUT THE BRIDGE FIGHT!

"Powder." "Jinx." I knew the one, but I'll never understand the other. The old "us" was lost when I woke up half-dead under a blown-up bridge... Can't think about that right now. The Firelights need to get back that gemstone she took.

Western media apparatus is going full gear on genocidal propaganda. There's an ongoing co-ordinated hasbara effort about this. WaPo, National Post, 'Israeli' account and more. Goebbels would be proud of them

Russia is bad for the environment

Russians always found ways to slaughter Ukrainians through the whole history. And famines were one of the most popular methods for Russia. 

Please don't ignore our fighting, keep spreading our voices, and donate to our army and combat medics (savelife.in.ua, prytulafoundation.org, Serhii Sternenko, hospitallers.life, ptahy.vidchui.org, and u24.gov.ua).

I love how that person who was like "oh ew a Zionist" also has reblogged posts about not being antisemitic and buying into antisemitic conspiracies while ALSO like.

Reblogging posts about how Israel is a uniquely evil "colonial scar" and how Israel is "murdering children" and like. Literally straight up antisemtic shit.

Leveling criticism at Israel that positions it as a unique evil among all other countries and doing literal blood libel (IE, Israel murders Palestiaian babies in a way no other nation kills children) is FUCKING ANTISEMITIC. Israel is JUST A COUNTRY. It is JUST another nation, doing the shitty stuff that other nations do. And if you find yourself railing against Israel EXTRA hard right now, or ever, in ways that you do NOT rail against other shitty countries that do shitty things (and, I can't believe I have to say this, if you find yourself saying that the kidnap, rape, torture, and murder of any civilian ever is justified because "uwu this radical extremist group is freedom fighters"!) then you're a fucking antisemitic, racist bigot.

Like. It blows me away how so many people don't seem to see that Israel, the Jewish state (whether you agree with how it is run or not, whether you agree with how it came to be or not) gets SO MUCH MORE SHIT than other comparable shitty countries... Come on.

Because the alternative is that you DO see it. That you DO agree with all of those things that are STEEPED in age-old antisemitic conspiracy. And you agree.

It is especially insulting how ukrainians are constantly being accused by anti-ukrainian pundits for "stealing the military aid" - which there is 0 evidence of - while those very same "least corrupt countries in the world" are stealing from us.
