So first of all, the DOJ's standards are....extremely fallen, I cannot imagine this happening much earlier in time.
Second, the word "intentionally" has very specific meaning and this lawyer thirty years into practice knows what it means, and the judge is being very clear about that.
Father Pierre el-Rahi told his parish three days before his death: "We carry only the weapons of peace."
An Israeli Merkava tank fired twice at the same home in Qlayaa. He ran toward the wounded after the first shell.
The second one killed him.

A reminder than Ben Shapiro was an advocate for the ethnic cleansing of not just the Palestinians of East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza but also the Palestinian-citizens of Israel. He wrote this in 2003.
I might be a bit on edge. Got a call today from a typical EdTech company offering some product to "modulate" student AI use. Built-in AI students could use to exact percentage I set. Idiot salesperson didn't know what an LLM was ... I said mean things... that they were doing the Devil's work...
AOC came out swinging against age verification legislation and somehow the entire tech press seems to not have noticed?
It’s not “those sneaky people tricked the US into this war.” The U.S. also chose to join. But it chose to join a war pushed by Israel with Israeli interests in mind, because it sees them as synonymous with American ones for increasingly delusional & racist reasons.
I wrote a sonnet about most of the people we had in mind.
Sally Rooney reminding us of the role played by Mary Manning & her colleagues in the fight against apartheid South Africa, and how its up to us now to support Palestinians in their struggle for liberation.
You don't seem very bright honestly
This is why it is neither accurate to entirely place the blame on Israel nor accurate to say this is solely America's war. It is a symbiotic relationship and one that the US consents to repeatedly, under both parties, for reasons increasingly untethered from the reality of US interests.
Bleakly amusing that dumb takes like this get attention. At the same time, otherwise smart folks write think pieces on how we must parse every complaint that this is Israel's war for signs of secret antisemitism. Some doth protest too much.
Leqaa Kordia, in her own words, for @zeteo.com.
Leqaa should be free. Her captors, and whichever outside organization collaborated with them, should be the ones in cages.
Secret of Kells and Song of the Sea are so good.
Israel kill more children in two years in Gaza than Russia killed men, women and children in four years in Ukraine.
also older and more dove poop.
Bigger tires, less lift, better clearance, more stable.
lift or offset? offset/spacers are a good way to break a spindle. lift has its usage but sill6 to lift and put on small tires. id cut-out fenders first.
At least 13 hospitals and health facilities hit during attacks on Iran, WHO says.

Other than Spain, Europe is a joke.
Smotrich just said Dahiyeh will soon look like Khan Younis.
I wrote about Dahiyeh in 2024 and Israel’s domicide/urbicide

As with Vietnam - when the military starts to list off big numbers instead of tangible accomplishments, things are going nowhere
So Israel is doing an ethnic cleansing on Lebanon with support and cover from the US while the US helps them attempt to create a failed state in Iran.
Just called my senators. Their staff picked up quickly, I left a message.
Do it.
Lipstadt is also a very good case study on how liberal antisemitism scholars have become radicalised and completely unhinged in their rabid support for Israel at all cost, over the last decade and a half.
Congratulations to Mark Teixeira on his big primary win in Texas. I am sure he will be a totally shameful and absolutely forgettable member of congress. It's basically what he's running on. defector.com/mark-teixeir...
If anyone has a platform, and wants to have a Lebanese speaker to talk about the current situation, reach out. Im availble, but also connected to a lot of different ppl on the ground. We need to get the word out. This is ethnic cleansing!
Plagiarism laundering, responsibility laundering.
People keep saying that surely now Trump has alienated Europe.
But much like the US relationship with Israel, it's not rational.
Europe's primary civilizational value is Islamophobia, far more important to them than their own sovereignty or economic security.
