The author of the post wrote that the chairman of the Motorists for Themselves movement, Petr Macinka, thanked voters for their votes and announced a plan to organize a mass meeting with them. According to him, the service elevator of the Ministry of the Environment should serve as the venue, or possibly the adjacent cleaning chamber, if all voters from across the country showed up. https://t.co/5RzusdkdoV #MotoristéSobě #setkání #politika (translated)

Jan Betlach stated that on October 10, 1960, then Israeli Foreign Minister Golda Meir offered Arab states negotiations with Prime Minister David Ben Gurion in New York or elsewhere, without preconditions. According to his contribution, she proposed discussions on peace, or at least on a non-aggression pact, specifically reaching out to Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser, Jordanian King Hussein, and the Lebanese Prime Minister. Betlach added that Israel, at that time, had a width of only 15 kilometers at its narrowest point due to the 1949 armistice, and the Arab states rejected the offer. One Western European delegate reportedly told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that he hadn't heard a more reasonable proposal in a long time. Betlach wrote that Saudi representative Ahmad Shukairy used Nazi-related expressions twelve times in his subsequent reply and compared Meir to the Nazis. Five days later, according to his contribution, Nasser declared that Israel was trying to deceive world public opinion and that Egypt would never recognize the Jewish state. Shukairy later became the first chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization and drafted its charter, which, according to Betlach, rejected a Jewish state in any borders. Betlach concluded that Meir was only requesting a meeting but was rejected and made the target of comparisons to perpetrators of the murder of European Jews. #historie #BlízkýVýchod #mír (translated)

For a long time, I primarily observed, described, and perhaps commented a bit ironically on public affairs. "Today I have come to the conviction that it is time to take responsibility. I consider the Senate a place where it makes sense to defend the rules, institutions, and values on which a democratic state stands," said the publisher and writer Jiří Padevět earlier. #SenátníVolby #PodporaUkrajiny #Čižinský (translated)

Anton Musil wrote that, in his opinion, Witowská actually considered Guasti to be a neutral and unbiased scientist whose political and ideological views did not influence her professional work or public appearances. He claimed she held the same view about sociology as a whole. Musil added that empirical evidence should not affect these views because he did not consider them rational. He compared it to a fish that is unaware of the water in which it lives. #sociologie #věda #politika (translated)

Oliver Adámek, who according to his own words attended the Prague council for four years, stated that Prague is moving forward, but its development is hindered by the limited powers of local government. He identified the Metropolitan Plan and the continuation of tram line construction as the greatest successes of the past period. He considered the pressure on secondary schools and the Libeň Bridge as the biggest problems. Adámek wrote that elected politicians have only a limited influence on the shape of streets, closures, and construction. He advocated for the abolition of delegated powers, stronger powers for local governments in land-use planning, direct election of the mayor, and reducing the number of city districts by at least half. He noted that these changes would need to be approved by Parliament. He also rejected the claim that nothing is being built in Prague. He recalled the development on three major brownfields, 14 new tram lines in 10 years, metro line D, the Dvorecký Bridge, the railway to the airport, and the construction of the outer ring road. Regarding the inner ring road, he mentioned the complicated amendment to the land-use plan and stated that the Vltava Philharmonic had been waiting for building permits and financing. According to him, however, Prague needed significantly more apartments, both private and municipal. According to Adámek, the traffic jams in Prague are caused by three times as many cars compared to the 1990s, not by current closures or adjustments to tram islands. He believes that the ring roads would not change traffic in the broader center much, as nearly 90% of cars on the main road drove into the center. A vast P+R system, he argued, would require tens of billions of crowns and would not make sense. He considered the railway hub to be more important, as it would speed up commuting from Central Bohemia: while he claimed that 23% of Prague residents used cars daily, the majority of residents from the Central Bohemia region did. He criticized the current mayor for not engaging enough in public debate according to him and for not describing his vision for Prague in 10 to 20 years. He stated that most of the other current leaders had some vision. #Praha #volby #politika (translated)
