🇦🇫 🔥 📹 — 📰 Al-Jazeera: Taliban Palace - The Second Year of Taliban Rule | 14-08-23
— "Rare behind-the-scenes access to the Taliban spokesman as local Afghans confront him about the failed economy and broken promises of women’s and minority rights.
With unprecedented access from Kandahar to Kabul, the Taliban’s main spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid opens the doors to the presidential palace. He takes us to the centre of the Taliban’s transition from rebel fighters to the nation’s leaders.
Charged with orders from the Taliban’s reclusive supreme leader, Mullah Haibatullah Akhunzada, Mujahid faces the stresses that come with governing a divided and traumatised country of 40 million people. In Afghanistan, human rights are under attack and the economy is crumbling.
Powerful businessmen, bold Hazara leaders and a fearless woman activist confront Mujahid about the Taliban’s many unfulfilled promises. He knows the stakes are high for an administration which is not formally recognised by the rest of the world."

As seen in recent days, protests in Israel have gained the most notoriety given the violence and brutality on the part of both sides of the demonstrators, as well as the reported Israeli police violence to disperse the demonstrators.
— On the last September 1, 2023, the streets of Tel Aviv were taken over by hundreds of furious Eritrean immigrants that the Jewish State welcomed during the 30 Years War, divided into 2 groups: Supporters and sympathizers in favor of the Totalitarian Regime of Isaias Afwerki, the East African country's dictator and supporters of the Eritrean Opposition.
Armed with sticks, iron bars and some even with handguns, the two groups clashed violently with each other and clashed with the Israeli Forces of Order, with some cases being reported of the use of lethal weapons by both the ISF and some Pro-Regime protesters.
Supporters of the Eritrean opposition complained about the Government of Israel's decision to allow the Eritrean Embassy in the Jewish State to hold events celebrating the beginning of the War of Independence, accusing the Eri-Mekhete Organization of causing the chaos, meanwhile Regime's supporters claimed they were just defending themselves against radicals and calling on Israeli Government to deport back to Eritrea all opposition supporters
Interestingly, both the Eritrean Regime and the opposition, fighting on opposing sides, were directly involved in the horrific and brutal 2020-2022 Tigray War in Northern Ethiopia, as well as the Crimes against Humanity committed there, which sparked new waves of immigration not only to Israel and Sudan, but also to the countries of the European Union
