German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is visiting Israel for the first time since taking office in May.
His visit comes just days after Germany decided to lift a three-month suspension on arms exports to Israel that it said could be used in the Gaza Strip.
Merz, who has said he does not consider Israel’s actions in Gaza to be genocide, is scheduled to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday.

What has Germany’s position been on Israel’s genocide in Gaza?
Germany is Israel’s second-largest arms supplier, fifth-largest export partner, and one of its staunchest supporters.Mohammed Haddad (Al Jazeera)
Gegen Trump, AfD und Co.: Rationale aller Länder, vereinigt euch!
Donald Trump, die AfD, Le Pen - Rechtspopulisten ist gelungen, woran die Linke gescheitert ist: ein internationales Identifikationsangebot für Verlierer der Globalisierung zu schaffen. Zeit für eine Gegenbewegung.Christian Stöcker (DER SPIEGEL)
Eine Woche später folgte dieser Text. Das ganze war PUTINS PLAN. Die ganze Zeit.
MAGA hat begeistert mitgemacht, von Jahr zu Jahr mehr. AfD, „Reform UK“, Le Pen, Wagenknecht sind Handlanger - und der rechte Flügel der Union will es einfach nicht begreifen.
Ich sage seit Jahren: Der Kampf um die Zukunft Deutschlands wird im Inneren der Union entschieden. Wenn sich die pro-MAGA Fossilfreunde in der Partei durchsetzen, können wir alle einpacken. Dann hat Putin gewonnen.

Jep. Aus meiner Sicht ist es genau das. Sie ist halt eine Kalte Kriegerin, just wie Pistorius, Strack-Zimmermann und wie sie alle heißen. Stolpern blind und hilflos mit den Konzepten und Waffen ihrer Jugend durch eine kopfstehende Welt die sie nicht mehr verstehen.
Und was dagegen unternehmen?
Söder und Merz setzen doch voll auf autokratisch-populistische Linie. 🤔
Es bräuchte mehr christlich und sozial denkende Unions-PolitikerInnen, echte #DemokratInnen, die "das Volk" als Souverän achten, in deren Auftrag sie ihr #Mandat ausüben für mehr Volks-Wohlstand und allgemeines Wohlergehen...
Nicht Mannschaften, die die #Bevölkerung und das Land zugunsten mächtiger Konzerne und Lobbyisten, nach Wünschen reicher #SpenderInnen #fossil regieren 😧

Rare décision de justice. Un ancien sous-traitant d’Orano a obtenu la reconnaissance de sa maladie professionnelle. Mais tenu dans l’ignorance de sa contamination, il n’a pas bénéficié des examens dont il aurait eu besoin. Son cas éclaire les défaillances du suivi de la santé des prestataires de l’atome.

En cause : leur désir de garder le marché avec EDF, qui imposait des conditions de travail irréalistes.....si on respecte les règles. Ces boites sont coupables, mais le donneur d'ordre aussi, car il ne pouvait ignorer que pour remplir leur cahier des charges, les règles élémentaires de sécurité ne pouvait pas être respectées.

Italy’s public broadcaster RAI announced on Saturday its support for Israel’s participation in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, set to take place in Vienna, and confirmed that Italy will also compete in the event, Anadolu reports.
The statement came after the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) General Assembly approved Israel’s entry for the 70th edition of the contest.
pixel posting about streamerbot reminded me of event grids and wondering if there's actually a good way to store those.
in the end they are basically just parse trees represented graphically. so i'm guessing the answer is to either flatten it and store it RDBMS (maybe with closure tables) or just save them as nested documents.
flattening sucks but it does make querying fast, if that's something you want in the IDE.
Somali Americans responded to Trump’s latest attack with a wave of sharp satire that spread quickly across social media. Their posts mocked the former president’s comments after he called Somali immigrants “garbage” and demanded that they “go back” during a cabinet meeting.
Instead of retreating, Somali creators launched a satirical trend that used the same logic and language commonly found in Zionist narratives about Palestine.

Israeli forces and illegal settlers committed 57 violations and assaults against journalists in the occupied West Bank and Gaza in November, the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate (PJS) said on Saturday.
The syndicate said the violations reflect "continued systematic escalation aimed at preventing media crews from carrying out their professional duties."

Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa accused Israel on Saturday of "exporting crises" to other countries as a way to divert attention from the "horrifying massacres" it is committing in the besieged Gaza Strip.
Addressing the Doha Forum in the Qatari capital, Sharaa claimed that Israel was attempting to justify its actions against several Middle Eastern countries under the false pretext of "security concerns".

![The image is a black and white photograph featuring two men standing in front of what appears to be the entrance of an establishment. The man on the left, wearing glasses, has his hands tucked into his pockets and sports a suit with a patterned tie; he's smiling broadly at the camera. Beside him stands another individual dressed in a light-colored jacket over a white shirt, also sporting a wide smile as they gaze directly ahead.
Behind them is an entrance marked by wooden beams overhead adorned with what seems to be fabric or paper decorations hanging on both sides. Flanking this central scene are potted plants and decorative elements that add character to the setting. The overall ambience suggests a casual yet festive occasion, possibly related to local customs or celebrations in Osaka.
