The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
Two things
Feel bad for this dude. He’s far away. Buffalo seeks him out and he’s 10 feet into the air
Holy heck the movement skills for this beast. Look at that tight turn around the tree. Then acceleration into a finish.
Genuinely only just watched the Argentina Egypt highlights and I was expecting to see some mad controversial stuff based on the noise on here. Was never a pen in a million years on Salah. The callback for the disallowed goal was frustrating, sure, but it was obviously a foul. It was on Egypt for bottling it tbh.
4 years ago Argentina were playing like this in the 104th minute of a World Cup final when the score was tied, now tell me that cowardly football isn’t killing this sport
Spanish footballer Lamine Yamal waved the Palestinian flag.
An Israeli minister accused him of “inciting hatred”.
The Spanish prime minister defended him.
Imagine that happening here!
