An absolute mystery why @Nike stock is in the tank...night after US soccer announces themselves to the nation and almost every player's jersey is sold out 😂

In 2020, we had a guy on from a ballroom in Lithuania, I think it was, who was there to see a 16 year old French kid he swore was unlike anything else on earth. I thought he was nuts.

He was right.

That guy @Mike_Schmitz is now the Mavs GM.

Mamdani is rewriting history to erase the role Arab states and Palestinian leaders played in shaping today’s reality. Arab states rejected the UN's plan to create a state for the Palestinians and then launched a war to destroy the Jewish state.

Wars have consequences. And ignoring decades of Arab rejectionism and terrorism doesn't change reality.

In a city where Jew-hatred is exploding, historical revisionism pours fuel on the fire.

Mike rising quickly in the NBA is a testament to two things beyond just basketball knowledge. First, Mike’s an awesome dude. Great human. Won’t find anyone who has met him who doesn’t like him. Second, he works unbelievably hard. Work ethic is ELITE.

These things matter.

From a cold email to GM of the Dallas Mavericks. What a rise! Mike earned this through relentless work and an incredible basketball mind. And he's an even better friend than he is a talent evaluator. Couldn't be prouder of you, brother.

There's a lot to say, of course, about how much this sort of thing -- safe, comfortable Westerners appointing themselves arbiters of which nations are allowed to exist -- has taken over the politics of the Western left.

Or about what Israelis see that they don't -- for example, why Israeli Jews who hail from the Arab world are more right-wing and hawkish than the ones thrust upon the land artificially by European empires (or whatever).

Or about how no other Jews in any meaningful numbers actually managed to survive the 20th century outside the Anglophone world -- and when most Jews were actually fleeing to Israel, the Anglophone world was closed to them. The great exception, of course, is Soviet Jews, who were trapped in place and had their culture violently and brutally erased from them, and then fled almost entirely when the Iron Curtain fell.

Or, come to think of it, about how the Jewish claim to the land isn't about some dusty old lineage, but to a great extent from every generation's own contemporary story; from nearly every chapter of the Jewish Bible and prayerbook read and studied in every synagogue on Earth for two millennia; from how every synagogue for two millennia prayed toward Jerusalem; from the medieval rabbis who at the end of their lives boarded a boat to the land of Israel so they can be buried there; from how no Muslim or Christian ever doubted that Jewish attachment until they needed to pretend to forget it in order to fight Jewish immigration.

There's even a lot to say about the fundamental fakery of Western romantic discourse on indigeneity -- about how Jews were told to "go to Palestine" by Polish and Iraqi nationalists who rejected them for not being indigenous enough to Poland or Iraq, and to "go to Poland" by Palestinian activists because they're not indigenous enough to be in the land of Israel. (No one told them to go back to Iraq, of course, though they were a quarter of Baghdad's population in 1930. The brownness of half of Israeli Jews upsets the comfortable assumptions of the Western indigeneity industry, so it's ignored.)

It turns out it's possible, according to the self-appointed indigeneity auditors of the Western left, for there to exist a people that's not indigenous anywhere, and so undeserving, even in the midst of the brutal genocide of millions, of any other place to escape to. (Does Caitlin know that the Jews who fled to Israel had literally nowhere else to go? If not, her crime is ignorance. If yes, her crime is a denial of history so that history can be repeated. I hope it's ignorance.)

There's a lot to say about her final point, that it wouldn't actually be dangerous for the Jews to become a Middle Eastern minority once more; about how minorities generally have fared in the Middle East over the past century, and whether it really is crazy for Israelis, especially those hailing from the Arab world, to suspect that a future as a Middle Eastern minority would be a dark and bloody one; and about how it is the likes of Hamas, not some right-wing Israeli rabble-rouser, that keeps telling Israelis this is the case.

But what would be the point?

What would be the point of saying all that to someone who has adopted the demolition of another nation as the engine of her moral world. Such a person isn't going to sit with any of the actual history or dilemmas of this land and ask herself whether there might be some gargantuan lacunae in her understanding.

Instead, let me offer a small and practical response in place of the great and grandiose dives into the depths of the Israeli soul.

I think, dear Caitlin, that for all the reasons above and a few more besides, we Israelis will keep our self-determination, this safety we have found in a world that for all its endless self-righteousness never actually saves anyone. And I think, too, that those activists, like you, who condition Palestinian self-determination on us losing our own only pushes off the day of that blessed and necessary independence.

To clarify: Per source, UNC never actually OFFERED Tommy Lloyd the job.

But yes, financial discussions between parties indicated UNC was willing to make Lloyd one of the highest-paid coaches in America.

You either want the best job in college basketball and all that it entails or you are fine with mediocrity.

I wanted him, but seems more like the Will Wade type with the games he played.
