Correct.

It’s literally no leverage. The US just stopped weapons deliveries quietly to make a point to Israel about Rafah, and Benjamin Netanyahu just said “fuck off”.

And even with the specific conflict in question, what does anyone think happens if Hamas stays in power? We will be watching this movie every few years from now on, much as we have been. Not to mention that for 50 years every country that has attempted to permit resettling of Palestinians has deeply regretted it in…

I don’t love Biden, but he is clearly the lesser of two evils and that other evil is... pretty evil. I suspect I’m not alone in doing the unpleasant thing to prevent the rise of fascism in the US, with the hope that we can sort things out when the threat of christo-fascist barbarians destroying the country is lessened.

This is harsh, but all the hand-wringing about Israel-Palestine doesn’t even rate on the top 10 reasons for election decisions in 2024.

Macklemore in this photo is dressed as a used car salesman to surprise his fans while they wouldn’t recognize him. Says a lot about you that you automatically associate big noses with Jews

This is not a Jewish issue. This is not an Arab issue. It’s an issue with the failures of colonialism.

I am Jewish. You DO NOT get to tell me what is and is not antisemitic. Coming out looking like this is stupid at best, antisemitic at worst.

It’s...a conundrum.

This Macklemore? The guy who went on stage dressed up like a caricature from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion?

These topsy-turvy days demand Turner D. Century.

Just clicked on this article to see if this comment is there. I’m glad there are still some small bastions of reliability in this world.

We all know who it should be!

Shhhh.  People round these parts don’t like uncomfortable truths. 

It’s a fine example of human shield writing: where you put in a few (token) themes of marginalisation, and then hide behind them whenever you face any criticism:

But if the evidence is truly overwhelming, why would you need the wrong way to do it?

I always feel like bending rules to get an outcome you want is a bad idea because the opposite can be done to confound justice. The dissenting judge here doesn’t like that the conviction was overturned but doesn’t offer a legal reason other than it continues a “disturbing trend of overturning juries’ guilty verdicts…

Right? One of the rare times when a pilot WANTS a phone number!

“Tower, SW 2937, I guess we need a phone number.”

“(The lawsuit doesn’t explain exactly how this experiment was performed, which is tragic.)“
