Jiří Hrebenar wrote that Jindřich Rajchl announced before the elections that he voted for the coalition of PRO, the Free Citizens, and the Oath in Hradec Králové. At the same time, according to Hrebenar, he criticized the Ukrainian flag at the school where the voting took place and called it "a blatant indoctrination of our children." Hrebenar stated that the coalition in Hradec Králové received 2.44 percent of the votes, finished eighth out of ten competing groups, and did not gain any representative mandate. Rajchl ran from the 37th position, and according to the author, the coalition did not surpass the five percent threshold. Hrebenar also wrote that 97.56 percent of the votes went to other candidates, and he described the result as a failure of Rajchl's political ambitions. #volby #politika #HradecKrálové (translated)

Vláďa Foltán labeled Donald Trump's post about the Nobel Peace Prize as bizarre and wrote that Trump criticized again for not having won the prize. According to Foltán, Trump claimed that he deserved eight Nobel Peace Prizes for resolving eight wars: between Cambodia and Thailand, Kosovo and Serbia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, Pakistan and India, Israel and Iran, Egypt and Ethiopia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Israel and Hamas. According to Foltán, Trump also stated that he prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, helped bring home all Israeli hostages including the last 28, both living and deceased, and negotiated the release of over 900 political prisoners from Eastern Europe. He also claimed that he brought home 196 hostages without ransom, forced NATO countries to increase defense spending from 2% to 5% of GDP, and removed Nicolás Maduro from Venezuela. The other two wars, in Iran and between Russia and Ukraine, he claimed were still in the planning stages for resolution or victory. Foltán stated that Trump questioned the merits of the woman in the photo he shared in his post and criticized the Nobel Prize as well as Norway. According to him, Trump claimed that the prize should have been awarded to the United States and labeled its awarding as a discredit to the accolade. #Trump #NobelovaCenaMíru #Politika (translated)

The witch mockingly asked whether Macinka would dare to come to Černouček today and let himself be photographed there, since the president had come to vote. She implied that he would only dare to come when he knew that the president was far beyond the borders. https://t.co/MVuOdtqTmA #politika #volby #Černouček (translated)

Russia can continue to use the same patterns as before: subversive activities, sabotage, terrorist attacks, cyberattacks, or extensive propaganda and disinformation campaigns. However, it can also add kinetic actions, such as drone flights across borders, missile strikes in their vicinity, or border violations," notes Marek Menkiszak, head of the Russian department at the Polish Centre for Eastern Studies (OSW), for Seznam Zprávy. #hybridníválka #Kyberútoky #Rusko (translated)

Jan Betlach recommended a video from the account MorEdge_Insight, which he believed explained why the accusation that Israel was founded on "stolen land" was incorrect. He claimed that this criticism more accurately pertained to Jordan. Betlach stated that after World War I, Britain received the mandate territory of Palestine, where a Jewish national homeland was supposed to be established while protecting the rights of other inhabitants. In 1922, according to him, Britain separated about 77 percent of the territory, closed it to the Jews, and handed it over to Abdullah, the prince of Hejaz, which is today part of Saudi Arabia. He claimed that Abdullah had no relation to Transjordan and that his appointment to the throne was imposed by the British after France expelled his brother Faisal from Damascus; the League of Nations merely approved this formally, according to him. He described Jordan as a state created on territory taken from the mandate and ruled by a foreign dynasty. He added that the UN in 1947 recommended dividing the remaining 23 percent of the mandate territory west of the Jordan River, with the Jews accepting the plan and the Arabs rejecting it. Betlach asserted that Israel did not steal any land, whereas Britain divided the territory, and Arab states subsequently invaded the remainder. He argued that the accusations should be directed at Britain and Jordan, not at Israel. https://t.co/ugceLv8fS3 #Izrael #Jordánsko #historie (translated)

The author of the article stated that the third anniversary of the attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, once again drew attention to events in the Middle East.

"People from the counterintelligence did not expect something big to be happening. They anticipated a limited attack at one or two points along the border, or they thought it was a Hamas exercise. They had no idea that a massive penetration of five thousand men was being prepared at sixty locations along the border," says Amos Harel, a journalist for the Haaretz newspaper. #Izrael #Hamas #terorismus (translated)

Three years after the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, Israel announced that approximately two-thirds of the roughly 6,000 terrorists who crossed the borders at that time had been killed, while military intelligence warns that the remaining terrorists are still alive and Israel is trying to capture them. #válka #útok #Hamás (translated)

The last scout™ wrote that Nova's report from Poland showed queues of Czechs at gas stations and that a full tank there cost about 400 crowns less, according to him. He recalled that a similar situation occurred four years ago when Babiš, in his view, went to Poland and criticized the incompetent government, assuring that it wouldn't happen under him. He described the current situation as futile: voters of ANO, according to him, went to refuel in Poland, yet they still had to vote for ANO. #Polsko #Benzín #Volby (translated)

Oliver Adámek wrote that Budapest's mayor Gergely Karácsony recalled Václav Havel yesterday. According to Adámek, his text demonstrated how Havel transcended borders and how he is spoken of in Hungary. In the text, Karácsony mentioned that Havel would have turned 90 years old and that without him, the democratic transformation of Central Europe would have been unimaginable. His essay from the late 1970s on "the power of the powerless" inspired regime opponents in Hungary and Poland and remains a significant legacy. He added that Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney referenced it this January when calling for cooperation among democratic middle-sized countries. Karácsony described Havel as a defender of human rights, Visegrad cooperation, and European unity. According to him, Havel understood Europe as a lasting intellectual, moral, and political task that each generation must revisit. #VáclavHavel #LidskáPráva #Demokracie (translated)
