Tesla pushes for $56bn pay deal for Elon Musk

I am sharing the above, because it proves what people here have been saying for a LONG time on numerous related issues, I don't think just taxing the rich is going to work, we need to press for a whole new model and consign the current model to the garbage can of history.

If they won't listen to the advice not to escalate then there is NOTHING else we can do, let them attack Iran, strongly condemn that action and tell Israel they are on there own for all consequences.

The fact she endorses Trump is also worrtying

So based on what I have seen here on fedi about the GOPs policies that make Truss

A white supremicists
Racist
LGBTQA + phobic
Anti abortionist
Anti women and power of their own bodies

And a few other things. I say the above as these seem to be the GOPs policies in red states, Trump is the GOP presidential candidate and by endorsing trump you support their policies.

Report

Netanyahu is stealing attention away from Gaza by escalating his confrontation with Iran, said Jordan's Foreign Minister.

We are against escalating, he said. Iran has responded to the attack against its consulate & announced that it did not want to escalate further.

@DrALJONES

It is going to be interestng WHO joins this coalition Isreal does or does not plan to create, so far even the USA has said it won't get involved. No one in the world wants escalation.

I had a discussion earlier, and asked about the status of a consulate, it seems I was kinda right on the fact a consulate is part of the country it belongs to, so the Iranian consulate in syria is part of Iran, therefore the attack on the Iranian consulate is an attack on Iran. If this is correct under international law, it was unlawful to attack, (regardless of who the target was) so in addition the response from Iran was probably legal and justified (self defense maybe).

Netanyahu is getting more and more dangerous, even the people of Isreal see that, if the UK carry on supporting Isreal and maintaining the current narrative it will end up also breaching international law, even if we decide to also leave the ECHR we have obligations under other international laws set by other bodies, which are still going to be in place.

Scientists say that coral reefs are currently undergoing a global bleaching event, with more than 54% of the world’s coral reef areas in the territorial waters of over 50 countries experiencing heat stress. According to one scientist, the percentage of areas dealing with bleaching-level heat stress “has been increasing by roughly 1% per week.”

Talk among Tories of leaving the ECHR is reaching fever pitch (again), so its as well to be reminded about what the consequences of leaving the European Convention on Human Rights would & wouldn't be.

Whatever the practical issues, as Joelle Grogan (King's College) concludes, not only would it encourage further withdrawals, leaving the ECHR would be one more element in the destruction of the UK's (already floundering) global reputation, with further consequences.

I just spotted a post relating to a question about if we had seciured a company to fly out asylum seekers, to Rwanda. Given the number who are likely to fly out at any one time, there is zero need a for a norma passenger plane. If we assume one will be deported at a time, perhaps the government should consider a 2 seater plane, I think a tiger moth was 2 seater.

The New York Times instructs its journalists not to use the term "Palestine" and not to refer to Hamas as "fighters" but only as "terrorists" because they targeted civilians.

I have never seen this language policy applied to describe violent illegal settlers in West Bank. The NYT simply refers to them as "settlers." @palestine

The west has undertaken lots of sorties, missions etc where the target is within civilian areas, we have the tech and the ability to take out individual people or buildings and minimise casualties of non combatents.

When the Seal Team, found bin laden, they did so with a team on the ground, going in taking HIM out. I am sure the report said there were others in the building.

So good intel and the right approach CAN minimise casualties other than the person you either want to capture or kill.

Trying to respond to

"Hamas intentionally built infrastructure to maximize civilian death, tho."

What I am trying to say here is the west has managed to take out enemy combatants without managing to kill thousands of innocent civilians in the process, the US and UK understand we cannot do that under international law.

It shows it CAN be done, so why can't Israel do that, too, esp as they also have western technology.
