After that letter, in which she offered not to speak out politically while there, she was granted permission to go to Israel. And then she decided not to go.
That’s cruelty on the part of Israel?

You mean asking her not to actively work against their government while she’s there is humiliating?
She had already agreed not to discuss BDS while she was there in the letter she sent. And when they said “Okay, sure, as long as you don’t talk about BDS, you can come.”
How, exactly, is that humiliating?
Not Israel?
What you’re describing only exists in propaganda and spin. Israel is a complicated, imperfect place. But you want there to be a “good guy” and a “bad guy”, and Israel is your “bad guy”. That’s cool. It’s not reality, but you do you.
“Please let me come to Israel”
“We’re not sure we’re cool with that, because you’re kind of biased about us.”
“How dare you! My grandmother is there and I want to visit her! how dare you oppress me!”
“Okay, you can come.”
“Nevermind, I don’t really want to go.”
Yeah, the attacks from the right are disingenuous, and she’s vilified beyond what just what she’s said.
However, to think that her words don’t reflect some deeper bias is as naive as assuming President Trump’s words don’t hint at a deeper bias.
Just like saying some racist shit about black people would still be racist if you talked about “urban” people... You know. Not just “black people” but ALL “Urban people”. Not just “Mexicans” but ALL illegal immigrants. Saying shit that’s typically antisemitic about Israel doesn’t make it less anti-semitic. Substitute…
She said that Jews “hypnotized the world” at one point, and she has repeatedly insinuated they have outsize influence due to money... Both of which are old school tropes about Jews.
That subdivision might not have existed in 1989. Atlanta’s growth over the last three decades is staggering.
So, is it the 50th anniversary of the current gen charger design, orrrrr
Hopefully, one day people will be able to recognize being critical of Israel as not being critical of Jewish people.
That is not at all what I said, or even related to what I said. I said that Trump is probably right in calling Ilhan Omar an Anti-semite.
But okay, I guess.
Trump’s recycled smear that Omar and Tlaib are anti-Semitic
So, do they want Jay to pay half his salary, or teach him how to play better, or what? Because Kaep isn’t the best QB, but he probably is better than Jay-Z.
Because no one else judges people on a single feature about them, or some single element of their history.
Oh, wait, everyone does this exactly all the time.
You know, it’s not just the OS or system that is a limiter. I, not long ago, came across hardware that could only be connected to via RS232. When was the last time you saw an RS232 connector? I tried a USB to RS232 connector (nope), and ended up digging up an ancient windows machine to make it go.
I’m guessing, depending on who you ask, it was either blown up by Donald Trump or one of the Clintons.
Putin loves surprises. 🤷🏻♂️
You know what they say:
People in glass houses shouldn’t build spectacularly destructive doomsday weapons.
Air has mass. And the more you carry, the more mass there is. And you need a container to hold it (more mass). All of this stuff would have to be lifted up the gravity well. There are nuclear propulsion ideas for space, but this isn’t one of them. (And they’re also slightly terrifying.)
Also, the mass of the propellant…
