UN Palestinian Rights Committee  On 24 March 2026, addressing the Human Rights Council in Geneva, Francesca Albanese frames the statement as both a moral indictment and an appeal for urgent action. She rejects attempts to recast the issue as one of religion or identity, insisting that “It’s not about religion” and condemning what she describes as the “weaponizing the memory of the Holocaust.” She says the international response has been grossly inadequate to the scale of Palestinian suffering, pointing to killings, torture, starvation, and what she calls the “extreme unchilding” of Palestinian children.

GVS Deep Dive   In the middle of rising geopolitical tensions and the Iran–U.S. conflict, a powerful new AI model quietly emerged—one that may reshape cybersecurity, financial systems, and the global economy. Built by Anthropic, the model—Claude Mythos—was reportedly considered too dangerous to release publicly.

Forget the Missiles. Iran Just Fired the Shot That Could Actually Break the West   European Business Magazine Part 6 - The Longer Game It would be analytically premature to conclude that the petrodollar system is imminently at risk of collapse. The dollar remains the world’s primary reserve currency, underpinned by the depth and liquidity of US capital markets, decades of institutional trust, and the absence of any credible single alternative. China’s railway corridor bypassing Western-controlled shipping lanes adds a further dimension to the emerging parallel financial and trade architecture — one that was years in the making and is now operational precisely when it is most needed. What the Hormuz crisis does represent, however, is the most operationally specific challenge to dollar energy dominance since the system was established. Previous de-dollarisation discussions were theoretical. This one comes with a chokepoint, a shadow fleet, an operational payment system in yuan, and a...
