Academics Sign Letter Calling for NATO to Admit Ukraine Thu Aug 01, 2024 11:00 | Noah Carl
158 academics have signed a letter calling for NATO to admit Ukraine. But they don't address the crucial question of when Ukraine should be admitted: now, or once the war is over. Neither option is straightforward.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4In our city the walls of the ghettoes are built to keep the poor out, they have
bricks and cameras, they have infra-red facilities. Most middle-class areas
have big iron sliding gates which are equipped with a digital code box
for access. Which is kind of stupid because the gates are usually higher
than the walls (planning permissions).
The people in these houses, use helpers and most of the child -care
people are from other cultures, it's cheaper than family, community care.
Thats if they see their kids during the day at all. A lot of those women are
separated from their own children and you see them sending money in the
post-offices, or giggling and crying in the phone -bureaus.
A house down the road, was in flats, there was a whole community of young
fillipino nurses who brought their many little ones all over at Halloween, the house
was sold four a few million and is being re-furbished for a single family. skips
outside and some amount of friendly laughter gone from the neighbourhood.
Another family (hindu) were priced out of the market a couple of years ago; and ended up
in a hostel- one room at Park-Gate street, mum had to be out all day and travel to sandymount
to bring her three kids to school. This went on 18 months, more. she sat in a park, rain or sun
waiting for the kids to come out of school, (hours) and then took two buses back to a homeless
hostel. They were re-housed. The kids are doing well, but the property value and high rent
was the crucial thing to the landlord.
In this country then, the wall, works in a different way-
The community spaces are open on the other side of the rich-line, but they
are being sold off and developed for the rich too. So we may not be too far away
from the Italian afterall.
has vox pops from the relieved neighbours of the "troublesome complex".
Oh yes proper order................. I can walk home now in safety..........the poliss have their work cut out for them............I'm glad they were thoughtful enough to include the methadone centre inside the perimeter.........never liked foreigners myself...............don't know why they come................& why on earth do they turn on to drugs here?
= the little microcosom of Paduva.
= ghetto-isation.
On Tuesday last 11 tunisians, 9 moroccans, 3 algerians, 1 lebanese and 1 syrian were removed from the estate and processed for deportation.
the same day (14th of August) residents of the locality published thier intention to write to the president of the Italian republic drawing parallels with the Berlin wall & demanding better solutions to urban deprivation, acquistive crime and hard drugs than barbed wire.

I'll let you know how they get on.
Its not the Berlin Wall that i'm reminded of. it brings to mind the Jewish ghetto in WW II Warsaw. The "different" ones are locked into this ghetto and can be extracted whenever the authorities choose.
