Via MeFi - an Iranian woman debunks Bibis appeal to Feminists... "to bomb iran, feminist-ly?" “ZAN. ZENGEDI. AZADI.” Woman. Life. Freedom. "The truth is, Netanyahu and the Israeli government's use of the human rights abuses experienced by the Iranian people is a bastardization.

In atomic physics, the Bohr model or Rutherford–Bohr model was the first successful model of the atom.

"The 2023 Global Slavery Index estimates that on any given day in 2021, there were 8,000 individuals living in modern slavery in New Zealand. This equates to a prevalence of 1.6 people in modern slavery for every thousand people in the country. Despite comparatively low prevalence, several forms of modern slavery are reported in New Zealand, including forced labour, forced sexual exploitation of adults, commercial sexual exploitation of children, and forced marriage."
