Let's go ahead and partially translate the title into Spanish and call it the Junta of Peace.
If they had a shred of decency, they’d die of shame
"It is erroneous to dismiss the possibility that—as happened in 1948 and 1967—an intense Israeli/Iranian regional confrontation can manufacture a Nakbaic conjuncture (resulting in fewer Arabs present in the already fully Israeli-controlled territory of Mandatory Palestine)."
Mr. Archivist, apparently.

Screenshot of an X (Twitter) post by Gabriel Boric Font (@GabrielBoric) with a verification badge. The post (in Spanish) condemns Israel’s government led by Netanyahu as “murderers and criminals,” says they continue killing innocent children in Palestine, and vows to do everything possible so they are held accountable; “history will judge them.” Below it is a quoted post from Radio ADN (@adnradiochile) with the headline: “VIDEO. Israeli soldiers shot a Palestinian boy and blocked ambulances while he died,” plus a link preview. At the bottom are the timestamp “9:34 AM · Feb 27, 2026,” “643.6K Views,” and engagement icons/counts.

Which reminds me that I got a driver's license in Texas just so I wouldn't have to walk around with my passport to buy a beer.
Abetting genocide should cost you an election - and in a fair world, much more than that. The Democratic leadership believed they could impose this heinous policy on their voters, and many walked away. It is a stark indictment of the non-authoritarian, liberal alternative to Trumpism.
"What do I think of the Board of Peace? I think it is a colonialist operation: others deciding for the Palestinians."

"Estimamos 75.200 muertes violentas entre el 7/10/2023 y el 5/01/2025 lo que representa aprox. el 3,4% de la población de Gaza antes del conflicto. La cifra del Min. de Salud para este período (49.090 muertes) fue un 34,7% inferior a nuestra estimación central"

UPDATE: Staff at the ICE concentration camp in Dilley, Texas have begun raiding the dormitories of kids and their parents to confiscate and destroy letters from the children. This is in response to the ace reporting by @micarosenberg et al for ProPublica:
“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children.

Awards for Palestinians, impunity for Israelis.
Truly vile, but also a rip-off of Golda Meir.
This is the enduring legacy of authoritarian regimes, even after their fall: the destruction of trust and social capital.
“the CAH group had extraordinarily high scores on the Interpersonal/Affective facets yet relatively low scores on the Lifestyle/Antisocial facets. LPA identified the expected four latent classes, with most CAH men located within the Callous-Conning class.”

“[E]l primer estudio científico directo sobre violadores de derechos humanos en Chile […] revela un hallazgo incómodo: menos impulsividad que en la delincuencia común, pero niveles excepcionalmente altos de frialdad emocional, manipulación y ausencia de culpa”.

I don't say all this in anger, but with profound sadness. For the first time in my lifetime, the United States has become a place where I neither want to be nor want to send my children to study. That a majority of voters in the United States chose and enabled this political project not once but twice and continue to endow it with a healthy level of support, gives me sorrow beyond measure. It is the sorrow the comes from knowing that we cannot unsee what we're seeing. Whateverhappens in the future, this stain will stay. And as Geoffrey Firmin, the aging drunken consul in John Huston's movie "Under the Volcano," had it, "Some things you can't apologize for"
Having spent half my adult life in the US, earning my BA and PhD, and making so many friends, this essay captures much of how I see things unfolding there.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”
There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
A member of the Israeli bobsled team is a reservist in the 188th Armored Brigade, a brigade that carried out the triple-tap attack on journalists at Nasser Hospital.
There is simply no moral argument for allowing war criminals to compete at the Olympics.
I remember him from a 30 Rock episode where he gives political advice to Jack Donaghy.
Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.
We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...
Bajando el cartel en Davos Rodolfo Disi Académico Escuela de Gobierno U. Adolfo Ibáñez In Davos, Suiza, el Primer Ministro H canadiense, Mark Carney, dio un / discurso que está dando que ha-blar. La clave es su sinceridad. Carney dice que no estamos en proceso de transi-ción, sino de ruptura: repetir la fórmula del orden internacional basado en reglas, como si operara igual que siempre, es como vivir dentro de una ficción en el mundo actual. El no es un outsider: es la voz de un país plenamente inserto globalmente y, en varios sentidos, gran beneficiario del orden internacional que lidera EE.UU., por lo que lo dice es muy revelador. Para nombrar esa ficción, recurre a Václav Havel, escritor y disidente checoslovaco que fue presidente de su país tras la caída del comunismo. En sus escritos describe a un almacenero que pone en su vitrina un cartel del Partido Comunista: no porque crea en él, sino para evitar problemas con el régimen. El sistema se sostiene no porque sea objetivamente poderoso, sino porque millones lo perciben como tal; basta con que algunos dejen de hacerlo para evidenciar su fragilidad. Lo llamativo es que esa metáfora, nacida para describir una sociedad detrás de la cortina de hierro, aparezca ahora en boca de un líder de la cúspide del sistema internacional vigente. Que el primer ministro de un país del G7 y de la OTAN hable así sugiere que el "cartel" dejó de servir incluso a quienes estaban más cómodos bajo él. Vale la pena, enton-ces, escuchar lo que propone Charney, quien aboga por un realismo basado en valores que opera como geometría variable: sostener principios como derechos humanos, soberanía e integridad territorial, pero armar coaliciones pragmáticas por problema. Cuando el comercio, la tecnología y las finanzas pueden usarse para presio-nar, la respuesta no es el "sálvese quien pueda". Fuera de las grandes potencias, la alternativa es compartir el costo de resistir coacciones y promover la cooperación selectiva. Chile no es una potencia…

I see this as a direct consequence of decades of allowing them to do the same thing to Palestinian homes in illegally occupied territory.
La respuesta chilena para cuadrar presidencialismo con multipartidismo es el cuoteo. Kast no será la excepción.
