🛶 Noah -- The Jubalaires

The Jubalaires - Noah (First RAP Performance) The song 'Noah' by the American music group The Jubalaires, which was active in the 1940s and 1950s, is known as the first rap song in history.

On Nov 14, 2024, the United Nations voted 170-6 on "The Right of the Palestinian People to Self-Determination".

Those voting against:

🇺🇸United States
🇮🇱Israel
🇦🇷Argentina
🇵🇾Paraguay
🇫🇲Micronesia
🇳🇷Nauru

The vote on Nov 14, 2024 was actually less one-sided than it should have been, as certain targets of Washington (e.g. Venezuela 🇻🇪, Afghanistan 🇦🇫) have had their voting privileges revoked, thanks mainly to US sanctions on their countries.

The intense US economic blockade of countries like Venezuela 🇻🇪 and Afghanistan 🇦🇫 has caused them to be physically unable to transfer their dues (payable in US dollars) to the UN, meaning their voting rights have been suspended. The same thing happened to Iran a couple of years ago.

On the question of why so many tiny Pacific countries vote alongside the US 🇺🇸 and Israel 🇮🇱: They are microstates, and one of their only valuable exports is their United Nations votes, which are reliably (under the table) sold to the highest bidder. On so many issues, you will see the likes of Nauru 🇳🇷 and Micronesia 🇫🇲 vote with the minority (usually the US position) in order to pad the stats a bit. Why is it that only these countries vote alongside the US? Because that's all Washington can afford.

Great people, great food, great views, and one of the greatest rock acts from Bangladesh in the 6ix!

It was exhilarating to attend the opening show of Artcell 25th anniversary tour in North America. Glad I could make it amidst so much going on back in Montréal. A weekend that will live long in our memories.
