Biden threatened Israel with pulling military aid if it invades Rafah, but Israel is attacking anyway. It won't face consequences so long as Biden remains vague on what amounts to sufficient grounds for suspending military aid.

Monday I published this article asking if Israel recognizes Palestine’s right to exist?
https://open.substack.com/pub/qasimrashid/p/honest-question-does-israel-recognize?r=fyvxf&utm_medium=ios

Hateful emails called me “antisemitic” for doubting Israel’s support of a 2 state solution

Netanyahu today: “A two state solution would be a reward for terrorists.”😐

I don’t need any apologies. I just need my tax dollars to stop funding this atrocity.

People who complain about wild singing so hard in the morning - are not my friends. I'm DELIGHTED about early morning bird songs!

Their bird calls YellTell me - We are happy in our habitat here! It's another day we are alive!

Their early morning bird songs, remind me of the importance of feeling of being able to enjoy another morning, another day, to relish in the fact I'm still alive & able to receive many opportunities that the dead no longer have.

I’ve been through this before,
pre-dawn birds infiltrate my airspace,
awake when I should be long oblivious.
Good girls dream of princes,
subliminal desire to be slain
Gold birds in crystal cages
incant witchery for food —
hair of newt, spleen of worm
Lore is explicit
Vexed, inconvenienced by the
comings and goings of
the natural world.
Birds of a feather exchange
social pleasantries.
I who should be sleeping,
conjuring brave new worlds;
ambient noise translated into
lullabies.

I'm going to ramble a bit, but it will hopefully come around to something. When I was growing up, I read a lot of older historical book series, a big one would be the Little House On The Prairie series. While I really enjoyed it, there are some very obviously negative portrayals of Native Americans and African Americans. I remember being angry about it as a kid, and my Dad telling me, that part of learning about history is that we have to acknowledge the people we were, and still are. But because Little House on the Prairie is only semi-autobiographical, I still have mixed feelings about this. I do think they are well written books by a female author, an interesting perspective on early American life, and as an adult I can see and acknowledge the issues with the text. If we try to get rid of every author with racist ideas there wouldn't be much left to read from the 20th Century, and it also feels like being dishonest about who we are. So, I'm very mixed, how do you all feel about it? Do you think children can handle books with racial issues like this if it's explained to them? What is our responsibility here?

we are better for learning about bad behaviors and ideas of others, how they were responded to, hopefully overcome
we are better to avoid censorship, but to yes, explain, have conversations, learn about different values, different people, different times, and how they inform who we have become

The Russian government warned Ukraine that Ukraine’s new fleet of F-16 fighter jets will be treated as a "nuclear-capable threat" by Russia, and “nuclear-capable threat” is also the nickname Putin has given his tallywacker.

More evidence, as if any were needed, that people have lost their goddamned minds.

“Oh sure they brutally murdered those women. But did they abuse them? We demand to know!“

Never mind this was one of the most thoroughly documented atrocities of all time.

I’m old enough to remember when these Hamas cockroaches sent a 22-y-o kid to blow himself up at a party primarily attended by teenaged Russian Jewish émigrés. (2001) Is there no degradation, no foul act, to which one could not imagine them stooping?

But credulous American academics want to wash the blood off of their hands. has made these people insane. Or the other way around; can’t say for sure.

“I think a full investigation would show that Trump didn’t actually win the election in 2016. He lost the election, and he was put into office because the Russians interfered on his behalf,” the former president, who served between 1977 and 1981, said at a panel hosted by the Carter Center in Leesburg, Va.

That is correct. Your righteous anger is misplaced and you are at fault, yes.

History will record you as complicit and cooperative to the groups you claim to demonstrate against and protest about. They will refer to you as a "useful idiot" and you will disagree and think it has value.

Red states like Ky are planning to eliminate income taxes to move to an entirely sales tax system. They plan to tax all goods & services, so presumably your doctor, home care, your bookkeeper, and your contract labor will all have to charge you sales tax on top of their regular co-pays & fees.

Of course, that means the brunt of all taxes will be paid by the low wage working poor, and the rich will not be affected - nor pay any tax on their income. Small biz is screwed.

Of course, this being the GOP in Kentucky, they will no doubt slap sales taxes on Food & Medicine, too, just to make sure they hurt the poor as much as possible.

B/c that's what right wing christians do - hurt the poor, disabled, elderly by depriving them of food, med care, affordable housing, and then criminalizing homelessness for good measure. In the name of their evil god.
