Israeli terrorists are currently attacking the Palestinian village of Al-Maghyeer. Such terrorism is not an anomaly in the West Bank. It has become the norm and an inevitable outcome of an occupation that oppresses the Palestinians while shedding settlers from accountability

I don’t expect a major Iranian attack against Israel directly or just now. Iran has no reason to seek a regional war but they’re sure that Israel DOES want one. Why oblige them? Iran can respond in time and even with deniable terrorism against numerous possible global targets.

The April 12 edition of ⁦Ali Alfoneh علی آلفونه⁩ superb Iran Media Review for ⁦AGSIW⁩ highlights contrasting signals from Iran’s FM and supreme leader on retaliation against Israel for its attack on Iran’s Embassy in Damascus. agsiw.org/irans-mixed-me…

This f*cking guy.

Back in the '90s, my friends and I would snicker at Cornel West's ostentatiously eclectic schtick — 'The ontological, epistemological, holy resonances of Kierkegaard and Snoop Dogg...' — but nowadays his word salads are simply sinister.

The PDB is, in fact, widely known

RFK Jr stands for Really Fucking Kookie Junior.

Benny Morris is a fanatic. This is the most primitive pseudo-thinking imaginable. He doesn’t understand Hamas, other Palestinians or the Arab world at all. nytimes.com/2024/04/11/opi…

But then note the carefully and cynically chosen use of the word “hijacked” here rather than the correct term, disrupted. Looks like everyone at UC Berkeley is totally bonkers at this point. Maybe they always were…

This infantile outburst by Malak Afaneh is just pathetic. Disrupting a dinner for # seniors at the provide home of a law school dean is just idiotic. I should give workshops on effective campus activism, which I was REALLY good at and this definitely NOT! telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2024/0…

Every word of this, and excellent that he cites Hussein Ibish

“For the first time in modern memory,” Hussein Ibish writes, the U.S. and Israel are “at odds over long-term visions and goals, as Israel’s territorial ambitions are coming into ever-greater and more direct conflict with U.S. strategic interests”: theatlantic.com/international/…

These are the wisest and most sobering words I've read since October 7.

Not surprising to those who know Ambassador Phillips.

Read. Read, and take to heart.

Why is getting an Uber always a huge mistake?

Look at this preposterous first sentence.

While rural rage isn’t any more worthy than black urban rage or Latino border rage or anything else. Such bullshit.
