Not ideal, but the reasoning behind it could be practical. If the ICJ demands a ceasefire, Israel will ignore it completely and keep doing what it’s doing. Netanyahu has already said so multiple times. Ordering that measures be taken to limit civilian deaths and allow more aid could result in at least some compliance that would help alleviate the suffering in Gaza.

A fallible state institution that has made many documented mistakes in the past is still given the power to murder prisoners who are in its custody and under its protection. It’s barbarous.

America is hellbent on the concept of punishing criminals over rehabilitation while also having an objectively unfair justice system. The cruelty is the point sometimes, and it’s very unfortunate that people still think this way.

A Texas school's punishment of a Black student who wears his hair in locs is going to trial (apnews.com)

A judge ordered Wednesday that a trial be held next month to determine whether a Black high school student in Texas can continue being punished by his district for refusing to change a hairstyle he and his family say is protected by a new state law....

America was founded in a rebellion against tyranny. Conformity was for royalists, who undermined the revolution and some of whom later served as spies or fought with the British Empire.

These people wave flags and pretend they embody American ideals when they’ve never even understood those ideals, much less even made an effort to live up to them.

If you live in a swing state and are thinking about placing an anti-Biden protest vote, please remember that 90,000 people in Florida voted for Ralph Nader in 2000. Al “An Inconvenient Truth” Gore would have been President back when we could do something meaningful about climate change.

Please don’t do it again.

Biden Presses Netanyahu on Working Toward a Palestinian State (www.nytimes.com)

President Biden pressed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel on Friday to agree to the creation of a Palestinian state after the war in Gaza is over and raised options that would limit Palestinian sovereignty to make the prospect more palatable to Israel....

Netanyahu has been out of control since before October 7 happened. He degraded the security of Israel by appointing sycophants in place of competent leaders across the board. He’s also made every bad call on Israel’s actions in the war from a strategic level downward.

Bibi needs to face an election in Israel. His own people will vote him out, then a peace process can begin. Does Israeli law have the means for calling for a special election?

Johnson Casts Doubt on Border Deal to Unlock Ukraine Aid, Defying Biden (www.nytimes.com)

Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday dug in against President Biden’s efforts to revive stalled legislation to send aid to Ukraine, saying the Republican-led House would not entertain it unless Democrats agreed to a far more severe crackdown at the U.S.-Mexico border than they have been willing to consider....

Those were the people heroically defending the Capitol with zero backup. They succeeded, and Mike Pence was not hung from the gallows. Nancy Pelosi and AOC both survived the murderous intentions of the insurrectionists, as did every single elected leader thanks to their efforts.

The Capitol Police protected everyone at great cost. Maybe show some respect.

The death penalty is a barbaric institution. It always has been, and it always will be. The government says it’s okay to murder this person, so let’s murder him.

I don’t get why that doesn’t shock people’s consciences and sense of basic decency.

Even a single innocent person getting murdered by the state makes the practice barbaric. The state is imperfect. It should not have a license to murder.

They got a pass for taking pot shots at Israel, because that’s an internal regional conflict. Shooting at civilian trade ships in one of the most important shipping lanes on the planet is a completely different thing. We’re not watching gas prices skyrocket, a resurgent Russia, a global economic downturn, etc. just because some religious fanatics are throwing a temper tantrum.

The Houthis were warned repeatedly to cut that shit out, and they didn’t listen. These are the consequences.

Nobody ,

Firstly, the Houthi flag includes the words, “Death to America.” These are not rational actors. They are fanatic jihadis and all attempts to reason with them have failed. Acting like the Houthis are the same as a regular nation state is borderline intellectually dishonest.

If they have a problem with Israel, keep firing at Israel. If they want a problem with the rest of the world, keep firing at our CIVILIAN ships. Firing at those ships is an act of war, and it was going to provoke a response.

Biden waited a very long time to act, which emboldened Iran to take an oil tanker. That move virtually guaranteed a response, and it’s good that the response was limited to Yemen. Biden is playing the cards he’s been dealt, and he’s playing them reasonably.

Also, it should be mentioned that the Houthis themselves said the casualties were ~5 dead and 6 wounded. Warming was given far in advance so they could evacuate and minimize casualties. If Biden had wanted to play dirtier, he could have. A deliberate decision was made to minimize civilian casualties. If the positions were reversed, the Houthis would nuke Tel Aviv, DC, and every other major city in both the US and Israel.

They certainly aren’t more or less religious fanatics than Israel or the Christian Zionists in the US that support Israel.

The world would be a great place if everyone behaved rationally. It’s sad that they don’t.

Native American history: We lived on this land for a very long time and had a grand civilization for thousands of years.

Enshittification has become the new way of life for tech firms like Meta.

China Quietly Rebuilds Secretive Base for Nuclear Tests (www.nytimes.com)

In the remote desert where China detonated its first atom bomb nearly 60 years ago, a drilling rig recently bored a deep vertical shaft that is estimated to plunge down at least a third of a mile. It is the strongest evidence yet that Beijing is weighing whether to test a new generation of nuclear arms that could increase the...
