No no no, it’s way more comfortable thinking that I don’t have to make any big efforts because it’s only the responsibility of some elite.

In case you're mad at yourself for closing your precious window with all the right tabs opened, note that Firefox allows to reopen recently closed windows (jlai.lu)

I generally have a “home” Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to “lose” it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!

I thought then, and continue to believe, that Israel had a right to retaliate against Hamas for the murderous rampage it carried out on October 7. I also thought that Israel’s retaliation could include an attempt to incapacitate Hamas so that it could not launch such an attack again. To recognize this right to retaliate is not to mitigate Israel’s culpability for the indiscriminate use of tactics and weapons that have caused disproportionate harm to civilians, but I believe that Hamas shares responsibility for many of Israel’s war crimes. Hamas’s leaders knew, when they planned the attack, that Israel had the most right-wing government in its history, at immense cost to the civilian population of Gaza.

Hamas’s operatives do not wear uniforms, and they have no visible military bases. Hamas has embedded itself in the civilian population of Gaza, and its extensive network of tunnels provides its combatants the ability to move around quickly. Even if Israel’s bombers were intent on minimizing harm to civilians, they would have had difficulty doing so in their effort to destroy Hamas.

And yet, even believing this, I am now persuaded that Israel is engaged in genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. What has changed my mind is its sustained policy of obstructing the movement of humanitarian assistance into the territory.

I definitely appreciate that he considered the point of view of the Israeli government, as too many people are black and white on this matter, before reaching his conclusion.

Richard P Feynman on “Why are we here?” (www.youtube.com)

I think it’s much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers, and possible beliefs, and different degrees of uncertainty about different things, but I am not absolutely sure of anything. There are many things I don’t know anything about, such as whether it means...

J’adore les aubergines à la chinoise, j’ai à peu près retrouvé le gout avec cette recette : undejeunerdesoleil.com/…/aubergines-sautees-sauce…. À la différence que je ne les fais pas suer avec du sel, parce qu’après, c’est difficile à dessaler. À la place, je les fais sécher à sec dans la poêle avant de...

« Le peuple russe vit peut-être le meilleur moment de sa vie » (www.lemonde.fr) French
