Israel will not allow any humanitarian aid into Gaza, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said.

“Israel’s policy is clear and no humanitarian aid will be allowed into Gaza,” Katz said.

Preventing humanitarian aid from entering the Strip “is one of the main pressure tools that stops Hamas from using this means against the population,” Katz claimed.

“In the current reality, no one is going to allow any humanitarian aid into Gaza,” he said.

Ta Tesla encore sous garantie va un peu trop souvent au garage pour cause de panne ? La solution apparement trouvée par Tesla c’est de modifier la valeur du compteur kilométrique (à distance, vu que la voiture est connectée) pour dépasser les 50 000 km, et donc la faire sortir de la garantie.

#MurdochJournal headline: Harvard "is about to learn a the price of crossing the president."
How about instead: The President is about to learn the price of crossing out the First Amendment and the Constitution.

What Trump could lose in its battle with Harvard and the First Amendment.

They should definitely write an article describing everything they've lost by capitulating to an autocrat. Except, I guess, they probably couldn't do that since writing articles about how the autocrat is an autocrat is one of the things they lost by capitulating to his demands.
in reply to Jeff Jarvis

What America could lose. If you lose Harvard, you lose a lot. One of the most prestigious universities in the world just drops off the list of reasons America dominates. So incredibly petty and short-sighted.
in reply to Jeff Jarvis

Harvard is about to learn the cost of a lot of people obeying dictator Trumpolini & actively working to promote his despotic agenda even though they not only don't have to; they're straight-up required by law, up to & including the Constitution, to oppose him...

Crossing him would cost nothing if everyone just did the bare minimum of upholding existing formal & common law.

Lebanon’s health ministry said an Israeli strike in south Lebanon on Wednesday killed one person, a day after a similar raid killed two despite a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.

“The drone strike launched by the Israeli enemy on a vehicle in Wadi Al-Hujair killed one person,” the ministry said in a statement.

The ministry also said a 17-year-old wounded in an Israeli strike in south Lebanon’s Aitaroun a day earlier had died.

Racisme is een van de redenen waarom Westelingen zich verzetten tegen vergelijkingen tussen Israël en Palestijnen. De Mandatencommissie van de Volkenbond hield toezicht op gebieden die na de Eerste Wereldoorlog onder mandaat vielen. Zij ontving klachten van bewoners in de mandaatgebieden. Koloniale machten verzetten zich hier echter tegen, omdat zij niet wilden dat ‘blanke’ superieuren op gelijke voet zouden zitten met vermeend inferieure zwarten in een soort rechtbank.

The Tactics Elon Musk Uses to Manage His ‘Legion’ of Babies—and Their Mothers

in reply to Jeff Jarvis

„Musk refers to his offspring as a “legion,” a reference to the ancient military units that could contain thousands of soldiers and were key to extending the reach of the Roman Empire.“

All these references to the Roman Empire are pretty interesting digitalcourage.social/@sl007/1…

If you ever wondered what the acronym #DOGE means in Europe:

A Doge was the leader of Venice between the 8th and 16th century.
They had been elected by the People.

Until the 12th century.
Then it changed to a handful of dominating families.

I was expecting a story about the "babies" running DOGE, but the headline was more literal than that....

I mig bor två vargar: Den första hatar alla pundare som skriker om legalisering av droger. Den andra älskar kriminologer & sociologer som gör det samma.

Podden Komintern har denna vecka Hanna Sahlin Lilja som gäst. Hon lockar min andra varg. Lyssna och läs hur hon läxar upp vänstern om kriminalitet och drogpolitik.
