“Muslim-Jewish coexistence isn’t an abstract concept. It’s not an ideal. It was an everyday reality. We lived it, we experienced it, we touched it”

BREAKING! US court ha suspended the US sanctions against me!
As the judge says: "Protecting the Freedom of speech is always just the public interest".
Thanks to my daughter and my husband for stepping up to defend me, and everyone who has helped so far.
Together we are One.
On behalf of their client, Zara Sultana, Bindmans Media and Information Law Practise Group requires that I publish the following statement on X, and that such statement must be clearly visible and pinned to my
profile for a continuous period of no less than 24 hours:
“On 30 March 2026, I published a post on my X account addressed to Zarah Sultana in which I stated that she encourages and incites violence and is friends with terrorists.
Those statements are false. I was wrong and offer my sincere apologies to Ms Sultana for the harm and distress caused to her.”
It is my very great pleasure to do this, and I reiterate my sincere and repeated offer to meet with Miss Zara Sultana in person to resolve our differences.
Some have said that claims that Israel uses dogs to sexually abuse prisoners are antisemitic blood libels. Unfortunately, there is a good deal of evidence. The organizations that confirmed this include B’Tselem, Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor, Palestinian Centre for Human Rights, Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Here is the testimony of survivors:
1) "Nihad" (50-year-old father, Ofer Prison): In an interview with Anadolu Agency, Nihad testified that during a pre-dawn raid on January 14, 2024, Israeli soldiers ordered a police dog to sexually assault him. He described it as "the most painful moments of my life" and noted that the assault left him with deep physical wounds and long-term trauma.
2) "A.A." (35-year-old father, Sde Teiman): Arrested from Al-Shifa Hospital in March 2024, A.A. told the PCHR that soldiers took him to a corridor away from cameras, stripped him naked, and unleashed dogs that urinated on him before one dog raped him anally for approximately three minutes. He emphasized that the dog appeared "trained" and "knew exactly what it was doing".
3) "Halim Salem" (Pseudonym, West Bank Detainee): Testified to Middle East Eye that while he was forced to kneel with his head in a toilet, guards brought in a dog that "mounted and raped" him. He recalled that when he screamed, the guards beat him for "disturbing the dog".
4) "Wajdi" (43-year-old, Gaza Detainee): Recounted to the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor that during interrogation, he was tied naked to a metal bed and raped by both a soldier and a dog while other soldiers filmed and mocked him.
5) Mohammed Arab (Al Araby TV Correspondent): While detained at Sde Teiman, he told his lawyer he witnessed soldiers forcing dogs to rape prisoners. He stated, "They teach their dogs to have sex with prisoners. Can you imagine?".
6) 18-year-old Gazan Detainee (Sde Teiman): Testified to PCHR that while he and other captives were being raped with bottles by soldiers, there was "also a dog behind us, as if the dog was raping us," serving as a form of extreme psychological and physical humiliation.
7) 48-year-old Detainee (Al-Shifa/Military Outpost): Reported witnessing a dog maul another man’s genitals until the victim bled to death in his arms.
8) The Committee to Protect Journalists and Middle East Monitor have collected dozens of testimonies from journalists who reported being subjected to "dog attacks" and sexualized torture during their detention.
I talked to two guards in Sde Teiman, on more than one occasion. One had seen this happen and said it was too awful to talk about. The other said that he had heard about it from others and believed it was true. This happened. This is happening still. The evidence is too overwhelming.
OpenAI and Google are about to have a massive legal problem.
Researchers released a paper called “Alignment Whack-a-Mole.” They proved that these models are secretly storing near-perfect, verbatim copies of copyrighted books.
And they’re hiding them behind a thin layer of "safety alignment."
The researchers took ChatGPT and Gemini and gave them a simple task: expand a plot summary into a full story.
The result was a legal nightmare.
The models began regurgitating up to 90% of copyrighted books verbatim. We’re talking contiguous blocks of over 460 words, identical to the original text.
They were holding the entire manuscript in their memory.
It gets worse.
The companies have always argued that their "safety filters" prevent copyright infringement. The researchers proved these filters are just a surface-level mask.
By performing a simple, "benign" fine-tuning, the kind any developer does, the mask fell off.
The "latent memorization" was reactivated.
Finetuning on one author (like Haruki Murakami) actually "unlocked" the model's ability to recite books from 30 other unrelated authors.
The implications for the ongoing billion-dollar lawsuits are catastrophic.
Courts have been leaning toward "Fair Use" because they believed the models were "transformative”, that they weren't just acting as high-tech photocopiers.
But if a $20 fine-tuning run can turn a model into a pirated library, that argument dies.
OpenAI and Google told the U.S. Copyright Office that "weights" aren't copies.
The data now says they are.
One of my most popular articles ever included a long extract from a powerful closing speech by barrister Rajiv Menon during a Palestine Action trial in January. In the end, the jury refused to convict the six defendants.
Menon is now on trial for that closing speech – for reminding the jury that they had a 350-year-old right in law to follow their conscience in reaching a verdict, even if it meant defying a direction from the judge to convict.
Paradoxically, Menon joked in his speech that, because of that earlier legal principle, the judge, unlike his counterpart in 1670, could not lock them, the jurors, up were they to choose to follow their consciences.
Instead, the judge is seeking to lock up the barrister. Does 2026 qualify as an improvement on 1670?
It is believed that this is the first time a barrister has been tried for comments made to a jury in his closing speech. That should serve as a potent reminder of just us how authoritarian the current political moment is, and of how quickly long-established legal rights are being dismantled to protect British collusion in genocide.
Read my article – and the part of the speech for which Menon is being tried – here: https://t.co/RyDHG3Iz81

Someone built a full office suite where the server cannot read your documents. Not even the people running it can read your documents.
It is called CryptPad.
Your password generates the encryption key in your browser. CryptPad never sees it. The server stores ciphertext only. Decryption happens on your device, with a key only you hold.
If their servers were breached tomorrow, attackers would get encrypted noise. Nothing readable.

The architecture is the product.
Google Docs is a feature wrapped around Google reading your documents. Microsoft 365 is a feature wrapped around Microsoft reading your documents. Notion is a feature wrapped around Notion reading your documents.
CryptPad is the feature without the surveillance.
