Upon hearing news that a friend’s cousin was at the concert in Israel and is now amongst the missing, I have this to say.
One of the things that struck me hardest reading news this morning was that Hamas took people from many countries, not just Israelis. They have set themselves up against the world.

Jim Jordan Tried to Help Trump Mount a Coup. Now He Gets To Be Speaker?
“Many Republicans endorsed Trump’s Big Lie about the election. But Jordan was one of only a handful of congressional Republicans who actively conspired with Trump to overturn the election results.”

I once again, forgot the (stupid) rules of the American male.
1. Never admit you are wrong.
2. If people challenge you, double down, and double down again.
3. If they still disagree with you, get personal ("Your mother was a hamster!")
4. The best defense is a good offense.
5. Listening to other people is for LOSERS!
6. Changing your mind is a sign of weakness.
7. It's always the other person's fault!
8. The world is against you if they don't agree! You are the victim!
😉

As it turns out, it’s not really that hard to say the bare minimum of decent words. Who knew?
UAE calls Hamas attacks on Israel a 'serious and grave escalation'
@steventdennis What would he know about “wrong.” @KatM@mastodon.social

Canada does not recognize permanent Israeli control over territories occupied in 1967 (the Golan Heights, the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip).
As referred to in UN Security Council Resolutions 446 and 465, Israeli settlements in the occupied territories are a violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention.
The settlements also constitute a serious obstacle to achieving a comprehensive, just and lasting peace.

There Are No Rules
States and quasi-states are using extreme, uninhibited violence against civilian populations.
By Anne Applebaum
Extract
The russian invasion of #Ukraine and Hamas’s attack on #Israeli civilians are both blatant rejections of that rules-based world order, and they herald something new. Both aggressors have deployed a sophisticated, militarized, modern form of terrorism, and they do not feel apologetic or embarrassed about this at all

I blame it all on evangelicals. That small parcel of land known both as Israel and Palestine does not belong to them.
They want all Jews to move there to make their fairy tale come true. They don’t care at all what happens after that goal, and they definitely don’t care about the Palestinians.
Get the evangelicals out of the Middle East!

These people saying that, given enough time, they could write as well as Shakespeare is asinine. The idea that I could write plays or sonnets of the quality of Shakespeare’s is as ludicrous a proposition as Shakespeare thinking he could shitpost at my level.
