When will the US finally act to hold Israel accountable?


While the U.S. has waged war in the name of spreading democracy, it blatantly refuses to hold Israel accountable for its deeply undemocratic actions and violations of international law in Gaza and the West Bank, including its treatment of prisoners like my cousin. There are many days when I wake up and I feel like I’m in the twilight zone. As a Palestinian, the gaslighting rhetoric of the Israeli and American governments feels deeply dissonant. On one hand, I am force-fed the American values of democracy, justice and morality, while on the other I watch my people slaughtered by Israeli soldiers using weapons and tax dollars that we give them, abducted and imprisoned without regard for human rights or international law, all for the purpose of maintaining a brutal system of apartheid.

🚀 Our R&D Engineer @michitux is presenting today at the 6th International Open Search Symposium (#OSSym24) in Munich. He’s giving a talk about the WAISE project, a cool LLM-based search extension we developed at XWiki.

WAISE enhances search functionality not just for XWiki, but also for other apps, and today Michael will discuss how it could leverage an open web index with OpenWebSearch.eu.

cross that with my realization that not having a tracking device on you, whether by choice, accident or theft, has become a disability that doesn't get much attention WRT accessibility, and the harm is even greater than the immediate material loss

‘Nederlands beste universiteit’ TU Delft kukelt uit top-50 wereldranglijst, maar zijn ze écht slechter? ad.nl/delft/nederlands-beste-u…

Goed om te zien dat het #AD ruimte biedt voor een kritisch perspectief op de #THE World University Rankings.

En mooi dat #UNL duidelijk stelling neemt: "Universiteitsranglijsten die de prestaties van universiteiten in één enkel getal willen vatten, doen geen recht aan al het belangrijke werk op universiteiten"

The United States spent at least $22.76 billion funding Israel’s military operations in the year following the Oct. 7 attacks, a new analysis from Brown University has found. And that’s a conservative estimate.

In a new 'Vibe Check,' Kat Abughazaleh counts the ways the US could have spent its money, rather than fueling the destruction of Gaza.

“$22 billion is a lot of money and it’s coming from your pocket.” Abughazaleh notes.
