Silverseren,

Fair. It does have the news reporter tweet with the video embedded though.

Silverseren,

Like, I get wanting to defend the rights of women under oppressive religions and governments, but how exactly does controlling what women are allowed to wear accomplish that?

Silverseren,

That is the settlers' unsubstantiated claims, alongside the uncle's unsubstantiated one. Considering that no one else saw these "dozens" of people when the shooting happened in an olive field in a Palestinian town that the settlers had no reason to be at in the first place.

So, multiple questions are raised. Why did the settlers even go here? Why were they armed? The people living there clearly weren't armed.

Silverseren,

Also, why was he even there with a gun in the first place?

Silverseren,

Hopefully so. Most of what we've been able to see in the past 24 hours has been from people with satellite phones, which is a slow process.

Silverseren,

They blew up the telecommunications company building that was the main circuit board for all phone and internet signals. They also focused on destroying as much of the physical infrastructure, such as cell towers, as they could.

This had minimal impact on anything Hamas was doing, since they have physical landline cables down in their tunnel systems.

So the targeted destruction was aimed to harm the civilian population and their ability to communicate, not Hamas.

Silverseren,

This seems unlikely considering the massive number of popular teen romance shows happening, such as Heartstopper. It's just that any sex scenes need to have actual depth behind them when they happen, not just random sex out of nowhere.

Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ (www.theverge.com)

“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”...

Silverseren,

I mean, he wanted Paypal originally (and to name it X), so this just seems like the end goal he was trying to get to the whole time.

And it will still crash and burn. Gloriously so.

Silverseren,

Considering numerous statements from Israeli government officials on them considering all Palestinians to inherently count as Hamas, I don't see Israel caring about any of the 400 Americans still in Gaza.

Silverseren,

I mean, if you've ever been to Texas, you would absolutely know that Texas is a religion.

Silverseren,

At least it's finally done. It took years to even get it started and tons of Confederate defenders protesting it.

Honest question: what was Hamas' long-game with respect to kidnapping Israelis? Did they think Israel would just negotiate rather than retaliate?

It just seems crazy to me given the power imbalance. A cynical part of me suspects that things are playing out exactly as some evil strategists hoped they would, which, given all the children dying, is super-depressing....

Silverseren,

That would make a lot of sense. Since Israel has blocked numerous other attacks in the past, Hamas likely expected a similar response, not a complete lack of one from their very apparent and out in the open preparations for the attack.

Silverseren,

No, no, he has a point. All of the countries in that entire area base their existence on their made up sky person (and it's even the same one, which is what makes things extra dumb).

Silverseren,

The post advised employees to avoid focusing on numbers when discussing attacks on Israelis, as “the number of deaths and bombings in Gaza will be significantly higher”.

Employees were told that Israel’s bombing of Gaza was resulting in “difficult pictures” of injured Gazans circulating.

“This is the time to share difficult personal stories from the terrible [Hamas] massacre. It creates a feeling that it is happening at the same time,” the internal post said.

A message from another Wix employee sought help on a project building “a dynamic database on a website of all the companies that have come out against Israel”.

Wow.

Silverseren,

Just blatant racism alongside everything else.

Silverseren,

I wonder how Israel will try to dox all of these kids for daring to do this.

Silverseren,

It basically gives them an excuse to detain any woman they want, which is the purpose.

Silverseren,

There's numerous examples given in the article by Mona Shtaya on how Palestinian posts and hashtags have repeatedly been filtered out of viewability on social media platforms going back years.

Meanwhile...

Shtaya explained that Israeli settlers used social platforms to incite violence against Palestinians in the West Bank earlier this year. “People on the ground are sometimes beaten, there were towns burned because of this incitement on the platforms,” she said.

Analysis from 7amleh found that an attack on the village of Hawara in the West Bank was precipitated by a deluge of violent content containing the Hebrew hashtag WipeOutHawara, The month before and after the attack, “80.2% of all (15,250) tweets about Hawara included negative content against the village and its residents via the Hebrew-language digital space.”

Silverseren,

For those who want to know more. Heck, there's even published papers on the subject.

Silverseren,

Because Meta has not given an explanation to him or anyone. Hence why the article says "His Twitter account is still suspended for unclear reasons. "

Silverseren,

As fun as that would be, we actually have standards, unlike Elon.

It's Day 20 with no House speaker, and lower-level names seek Trump's support and race for the gavel (apnews.com)

Republicans gathered late in the evening to hear quick speeches from the congressmen seeking the job, though none has a clear shot at the gavel. Eight candidates are in the running for one speaker after one dropped out. Behind closed doors, they made their elevator pitches to colleagues ahead of internal party voting....

Silverseren,

The issue is more the upcoming budget that needs to be passed, since Republicans only allowed for the funding bill to be delayed for 45 days.

Without a speaker by then, I don't think the bill can even get to the floor.

Dutch woman stranded in Gaza is killed in bombing raid (www.dutchnews.nl)

A 33-year-old Dutch woman has been killed in an explosion in Gaza. Islam al-Ashqar was visiting relatives at the Nusairat refugee camp in central Gaza and was one of 22 Dutch nationals the ministry was trying to help leave. Israel bombed the local evening market in the camp on Saturday night.

Silverseren,

This happened two days ago and began being reported on yesterday, yet only Dutch sources are really commenting on it. And even those Dutch media sources seem to really be burying the lede on the fact that she was killed by an Israeli bombing run. Many of the articles are putting that fact at the end and equivocating it with "According to the Associated Press".

Most of the headlines just say she died "in an explosion", giving the implication Hamas was responsible.

Silverseren,

Except that the IDF acknowledges that they bombed the refugee camp market on Saturday. That's not in question right now. The only hanging question is whether she was killed in that or died in some other way at the exact same time, according to the above article.

Silverseren,

"I really don’t think anyone reads that Hamas bombed her."

I've got someone now doing that exact equivocation in the reply just above yours.

Silverseren,

Hyperreality up above.

Silverseren,

"A document presented by Israeli President Isaac Herzog as proof that Hamas intended to develop chemical weapons is actually an amateur biography of World Trade Center attacker Ramzi Yousef and contains no instructions on how to develop chemical weapons."

""It's al-Qaeda material. Official al-Qaeda material. We are dealing with ISIS, al-Qaeda and Hamas. And in this material there were instructions on how to produce chemical weapons," Herzog said of the document.

"This is how shocking the situation is where we're looking at the instructions that are given on how to operate and how to create a kind of non-professional chemical weapon with cyanide.""

"Readily available on the internet, the 30-page book contains no instructions on how to make chemical weapons but makes reference to the Kuwait-born Yousef's life working for al-Qaeda, especially his role in the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center."

I see Israel is continuing the tradition of incredibly dumb and easily debunkable propaganda. And outside of Arabic-related news sources, I see no other media reporting on this that's actually noting said propaganda, but is instead taking Herzog's statement at face value.

Silverseren,

Is that referring to the second image that Herzog showed? The one that's been publicly available since 2005 for everyone to see?

The one Sky News themselves have had full photos available of in their articles for years?

The one that everyone made fun of as dumb and not possible to work?

Silverseren,

Why are you assuming any Hamas person had any of these documents on them? I'm putting money on Herzog pushing some complete made up bullshit. Which fits with past evidence of really obvious made up bullshit Israel has pushed at the UN.

Silverseren,

It's pretty apparent that the Israeli government is trying to push propaganda to shore up their excuses for the ground invasion. A chemical weapons threat would be a massive excuse for them just going in and destroying everything.

Silverseren,

And? They're one of the only news sources bothering to debunk the blatant misinformation from Herzog. Plenty of other individual people had already debunked it, but none of the non-Arab media appears to be even attempting to point out the false claims he's making.

Silverseren,

She was killed in her home. It's way more likely that it was by someone she knows. If anything, that person would be taking advantage of everything going on to make it seem like it's an anti-semitic attack to get attention off of them as the culprit.

Silverseren,

So instead of using they like a normal person would, they have to use something like s/he throughout entire documents? How clunky and ugly that must be.

Ex-chancellor of Germany confirms that the Ukrainians did not agree on peace because they were not allowed to. For everything they discussed, they first had to ask the Americans. (www.berliner-zeitung.de)

Ex leader of Germany confirms revelations by ex Israeli PM & Ukrainian media: "At the peace negotiations in Istanbul in March 2022 with Rustem Umerov, the Ukrainians did not agree on peace because they were not allowed to. For everything they discussed, they first had to ask the Americans. I had two talks with Umerov, then a...

Silverseren,

This article is actually trying to pretend Russia are the good guys here. What trash this article is. Posted by similar tankie trash.

Silverseren,

This article is incredibly dumb. What's the alternative, they don't try to defend their country from being invaded? We've already seen all the genocidal actions Russia has done with the towns they've taken over, the mass graves and all that.

If needed, Ukraine will and should fight to the last person. Hopefully it doesn't come to that though. They need to be supported so it doesn't come to that.

Silverseren,

Of course, the horrific flip side to this is that the end result (hopefully with the companies actually getting in trouble) is still going to be to deport all these kids.

And if they can't find their parents, I would expect they'd just stick them on a plane and kick them out of the airport on the other end in Guatemala.

Silverseren,

"Hostages and civilian casualties will be secondary to destroying Hamas, Economy Minister Nir Barakat told ABC News, "even if it takes a year.""

Fucking hell.
