Decisive defeat. Then elimination of fear. Then rule of law. Then economic revival. Then democracy. Then, if all that works, statehood. Then prosperity in every sense.

This is the circuit for quantum teleportation. The maths behind it is trivial.

Yet, the idea is revolutionary. The gap between prior knowledge and teleportation was entirely conceptual, rather than technical.

This is an example of thing that AI is nowhere close to inventing.

@PeterJemley @MorEdge_Insight Video not available. Are they saying Blake caused the murder of Mr Jones?

Blake AFAIK was the only MI6 traitor who turned traitor while on duty, like the monks.

[David Deutsch @DavidDeutschOxf]

@PeterJemley @MorEdge_Insight He was British spy who turned communist after reading communist literature in North Korean captivity and then committed treason when he returned.

@joshxhowie "Settlements deemed illegal under international law" is identical in meaning to "illegal immigrants", yet people who consider the latter phrase bigoted get a thrill from applying the former to Jews on the "West Bank" even though—or because—doing that is a perversion of language.

"My Oxford-educated wife, Lucy, and my British-educated daughters, Maia and Rina, were brutally murdered by Palestinian terrorists in the Jordan Valley in April 2023. Since their murders, the terrorists’ families have been eligible for payments from the Palestinian Authority under its notorious “pay-for-slay” system. The terrorist organisations responsible for so much bloodshed have also flourished in an environment sustained for decades by international funding, including British support for the PA and UNRWA.
And now you propose boycotting products made by Jews living in the West Bank.
You insist that you are not against Israelis. Yet you are prepared to single out Jewish Israelis like me for economic punishment."

Today Fauda season 5 started airing and it’s going to expose millions of people the what really happened here on October 7th. People who never beard our side will get to experience a fraction of what we felt

I already watched it a few months ago, so I know they are going to get a serious slap of reality, because it was even hard fir me to watch, and I actually live here

Pro Palis didn’t even try to boycott it because they know they can’t, and honestly they want to watch it too, because it’s a great Show

Thank you Fauda for telling our story and a way only you can

Two things can be right at once:

1) For the British state to sanction Israel is retarded and malicious. It's obviously done in a desperate attempt to gain muslim votes, which won't work.

Andy Burnham thinks he's doing something, but all he does is piss off a country who not only benefits Britain in trade and intel sharing, but also saved British-Israeli hostages because the British government didn't give a fuck about their lives. The Yookay is ruled by hostile awful people who hate the British and Israeli people alike.

A future British right wing government needs to reverse all these moronic decisions on day 1.

2) For Israeli ministers to retaliate with the Falklands is also retarded. As I have explained many times, the British government hates itself and its people. If they could give away the Falklands without the backlash, they would.

So they're not the ones who get burned by "Malvinas belong to Argentina" statements.

However, the British right wing who opposes these sanctions and who also has stood with Israel this entire time, do get burned by it. It's not the entire country of Britain doing this to you, but a horribly unpopular minority government. So for these ministers to question all of Britain's territorial integrity in return only hurts their own allies.

Direct your anger where it belongs - at Labour and the Far Left. Don't attack the entire country. I live here and can assure you have more friends than you think. Don't turn those friends against you when they are the ones who will hold power in a few years.

Yup.

@ccarp87 @cgtwts I'm used to people arguing as if Karl Popper had never existed. But arguing as if Simon Williams https://t.co/l8DsR50jIe never existed either is just cruel! It'd be a bleak world indeed.

@recurrentneural @cgtwts That's like saying the planet Mercury revealed to us that gravity gravitates. And so on. In reality the planet Mercury reveals nothing.

This reminds me of the Anglo-Dutch wars fought over an absurdity between natural allies who should have been together facing the dangerous totalitarians. Today the natural allies are Britain, US, Ukraine, Argentina, and Israel. Only this time they aren't all equally misguided.

📰 Who is telling Ed stories?

Ed Miliband says medicines are "blocked" from Gaza and children are dying waiting for treatment—based on "stories" he heard in a meeting.

We've submitted an FOI request to find out who was in that meeting, and what evidence—if any—was behind what the Foreign Secretary told the country.

Follow the request and watch the FCDO's response land in real time:

[Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis @chiefrabbi]

This is truly a dark day for British Jews.

Today our Government has chosen to ignore the deep concerns expressed by so many of us.

The measures announced amount to little more than political flag bearing for mendacious anti-Israel rhetoric and those who harbour a dangerous obsession with the Jewish State. These measures will succeed only in bolstering the very extremism they seek to target.

On the eve of Rosh Hashanah and at a time when our community is more vulnerable than ever to the wave of extremism that has been building over recent years, these sanctions do nothing to advance the cause of peace. Nor do they make anyone safer – quite the contrary.

Gesture politics of this kind feeds into an increasingly hostile discourse about Israel, and the cumulative effect of such punitive policies is to further embolden those, at home and abroad, who use hatred as a weapon against Jews.
