I think it's cool that this many people follow me on the Fediverse with no extra effort on my part, but what's cooler is that they follow me across 94 servers.
That means my Fediverse Threads account is connecting to 94 social platforms. It could include different Mastodon servers, Flipboard, micro[dot]blog, solo servers - w/e they choose to use to tap into the network.
But 94 different platforms running their choice of software and user experience, all connected via a protocol. Incredible.

My bad. Did you not know why this man started World War 3?
It was to escape prison before, during, and after a coupe. He was mid coupe when wouldn't you know this all mysteriously broke out.
Benjamin Netanyahu had been deposed by the people of Israel and was going to jail for being a monster. Escalating the war was his only path to avoid prison.

Ship Without a Country: Eyewitness Accounts of the Attack on the USS Liberty by Victor Thorn & Mark Glenn, 2009
When one considers that thousands of books, articles, essays, documentaries, and blockbuster films have been made concerning pivotal events in history such as Pearl Harbor and the assassination of JFK; at the same time we need to ask: why has no such attention towards the attack on the USS Liberty (June 8, 1967) taken place?

I want to know why they allowed Israel to say they didn't know it was a US ship. It wasn't flying an ensign, it was flying a feakin' garrison flag. Those mothers are as big as the side of a barn.
Further, the intercept showed the aircrew DID report it was a US ship and IDF HQ ordered the strike anyway.
That was the last I considered Israel an ally.
