Remember people, you are expected to work until flood water reaches the factory gates. You are then excused* and free to die on your way home.

@silvermoon82 @jyrgenn At the very least, do it in a fume hood or, failing that, outside.

Maybe in a big plastic tub.

A investigation by Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit exposes Israeli war crimes in the Gaza Strip through the medium of photos and videos posted online by Israeli soldiers themselves.

The I-Unit has built up a database of thousands of videos, photos and social media posts, said the network.

The material reveals a range of illegal activities, from wanton destruction and looting to the demolition of entire neighbourhoods and murder.

In July, Australia's government ostentatiously announced the appointment of a special envoy on antisemitism. After the obvious questions were asked, they responded to the effect: "We'll do Islamophobia later".

The Islamophobia envoy has now been announced, but the launch was so subdued that it almost went unnoticed.

First, to single out any one form of racism for special attention is itself a form of racism.

Second, it's Palestinians who are being abused and vilified. Not all Palestinians are Muslims.

And it is the Palestinians, Lebanese and Syrian who are Semites. Judaism is a religion not a race. It was the Germans in the late 1800s, who decided Jews, were a race and started calling them Semites. It is time academia, corrected the misuse of the term ant-Semite!
