I spent 34 years in the Army - front line service in Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. Not once would I have thought it acceptable to be filmed with detainees in this sort of scene. It’s unconscionable. Maybe not a huge deal but symptomatic of an IDF that has lost any morality.

I had nearly forgotten that there was this ultimate fringe movement of people who believe there was no SARS-CoV-2 virus, no pandemic, and that the whole thing was a psyop by the WEF, the space lizards or whatnot, to pursue their nefarious agenda. Sigh ...

As a genocide scholar, I have tried to understand the arguments I have read for why Israel’s conduct in Gaza does not constitute genocide. I struggle. The counter-arguments are not difficult. Here are 8 arguments I've heard and what I think in response. 1/n

I worry Biden's correct. current levels of airstrikes won't deter the Houthis. The intensity required to do so is politically unacceptable, and stopping the bombing now would hand a propaganda win to the Houthis. So, the airstrikes have to continue at a low level, for the show...

I don't get the outrage over 'Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions' (BDS), especially from the right. I'm not sure it really works economically, but it's non-violent, liberal, ueber-capitalistic, and if a company gets wrongly accused, it should be easy for them to fix the record.

A useful test of your morals is if you think that innocent people dying is an acceptable price to pay for some course of action, are you equally happy with those deaths happening where you live as you are with them happening where they're actually likely to happen?

Prof Francois Balloux It’s probable to assume Israel bombed a hospital to weaken the moral of the enemy.

How long until he erases this tweet and is forced to apologise?

This video is totally insane, bonkers, nuts ...
And I state this as someone who believes the West should invest in defence, and someone who's not systematically against international military intervention if there's a moral case and a political project to clean up the mess.
