So much here in Beasley's statement that endangers #humanitarianism and the #UN as a credible humanitarian actor. #Syria #Syria_earthquake 🧵reuters.com/world/middle-e…
1) "Crossline aid has nothing to do w/ the humanitarian response. It is a political decision," As one career UN official told me who worked on the Syria response.
Why should that be clear to anyone that has worked on #Syria or picked up a newspaper in the past 12 years?...

2) The majority of the 4-5 million people in NW Syria have been besieged, attacked, and forcibly displaced by the Syrian regime. For this obvious reason, many people living in the NW also do not want XL aid, as shown in many polls. This is not about HTS.

I am a university professor & researcher specializing in the links between the environment, violence, and security. I endorse @AOC/@SenMarkey's #GreenNewDeal as realistic, necessary, and perhaps the most important policy proposal this country has seen in its history. Here’s why:
Decades of research from academia, civil society, and militaries around the world—including foremost the U.S. military—have developed a robust case about the multiplying problems, instabilities, and crises that are already resulting due to #climatechange.
Virtually all of the major problems contemporary security studies are multiplied and exacerbated by the effects of climate change: warmer temperatures are linked to drought, world food prices, worsening poverty, political instability, conflict, mass migration, and so much more.
