The main protest in Tel Aviv’s Hostage Square began with a screening of a video showing Israeli hostage Evyatar David. According to the Hostage and Missing Families Forum, 60,000 demonstrators participated in the rally.
First, let’s start with a necessary reminder: A year ago, France held parliamentary elections. Although Le Pen’s “National Rally” received three million more votes (1), the “New Popular Front” (2) won the most seats in the second round. In fact, the New Popular Front lost two million votes between the first and second rounds, by withdrawing its own candidates in many regions and favouring the party of French President E. Macron. Consequently, Macron’s party avoided the resounding defeat predicted by the European election results (3).

The war triggered by Israel’s attacks on Iran and intensified by Iran’s retaliation lasted for 12 days. Although short-lived, this war marked a significant turning point in world politics. It is essential to analyze this conflict from various angles, including what it means for the relationship between Turkey and Iran.
Turkey and Iran are two of the most powerful countries in the Middle East. A look at history reveals that the relationship between these two countries has experienced many ups and downs.
Khrushchev Lied, first published in 2011, is definitely the most emblematic work of Grover Furr, an American Professor of Medieval English Literature at Montclair State University who has devoted years of research on Stalin-era Soviet Union.
Before going to the book itself, it is significant to underline that Furr isn't an ordinary historian who relies on the dominant narratives and “sacred truths” of bourgeois historiography. On the contrary, he carefully challenges those narratives and “truths”, applying a dialectical approach on history and seeking for the actual facts one by one, usually using an enormous list of thoroughly-searched, primary and secondary, sources.
