⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇱🇵🇸JUST IN:

In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Green Beret Lt. Col. Tony Aguilar recalled meeting a starving Palestinian boy named Amir who was killed by the IDF at a GHF site.

Aguilar called the Israeli-American aid points “death traps” meant to lure civilians, saying he’s never seen anything like it in his 25-year U.S. Special Forces career.

He added that every time these sites are set up, nearby hospitals are overwhelmed with casualties.

Elon Musk:

“So many people, including smart people, think there are too many people in the world and think the population is growing out of control.

It's completely the opposite. Please look at the numbers.

If people don't have more children, civilization is going to crumble.”

Muslims in India say a series of recent attacks against them are proof that little has changed under the country's new government.

Working on the right thing is probably more important than working hard.

Shocking footage of an Israeli army dog attacking and viciously biting a 66 year old Palestinian woman in her house in Jabalia city, North of Gaza. Cowards!

Tonight I end a 21-year blogging career. I wrote my very first blog post on 3 March 2003 on an old, long-dead blog in what seemed like another lifetime ago.

In fact, it was.

Blogging connected me to the world at a time my life was isolated and controlled in an increasingly abusive marriage.

It gave me a way to learn and to share my knowledge with others, and when my husband died from brain cancer it gave me a way to support my family, to contribute to my oldest’s wedding, and to put my youngest through college.

That was possible not just because I could reach readers through Google, but because I could turn my thoughts and knowledge into an ad-supported commodity that attracted others who wanted to know what I knew.

That has been taken from me now. Google has claimed my work as theirs. They make it freely available without attribution. I can no longer turn my knowledge into an income — but Google has.

And I had no say in it.

I was not asked if I was fine with my personal insights or experience being paraphrased and turned into machine-regurgitated answers (which are often wrong because they fail to grasp the nuances involved).

“It’s just info.”

That’s what people who don’t actually create anything keep saying.

They’re wrong. It was so much more than “just info.”

It was knowledge acquired through personal experience.

It was time spent writing that knowledge in a way that was accessible and understandable.

It was all the weeks and months that went into building and maintaining a site to hold that knowledge in wait for someone who might need it.

It was years spent learning to optimize that site, years spent learning and relearning with every algorithm change, every new technology, every new online fad.

It was my creation. It was my accomplishment. It was my life.

It was the food in my family’s mouths, the clothes on our backs, the medicine I need just to walk.

It was mine and Google stole it.

I am not feeding that evil beast again.

As Israel's bombardment of Gaza continues, far-right Hindu nationalists in India are being accused of using support for Israel to fan anti-Muslim rhetoric ⤵️
