Listen to this Israeli military analyst speak in English to an IDF spokesman, where they boast that the law they just got Trump and Congress to enact to mandate greater "cooperation" between the US and Israeli militaries will tie the hands of a future US President whom Americans elect to stop aiding Israel.

They also say that Trump's obligation with the time he has left is to merge these specific joint US/Israeli military programs as aggressively and rapidly as possible, to make it as difficult as possible for it to ever be undone by the US democratically:

There's a whole industry in the UK and US whose job is to persuade us up is down.

Those four Israeli soldiers were killed illegally invading and destroying a sovereign country, Lebanon.

These same people have spent years telling us anyone who criticises Israel is an antisemite

It appears this is not a proscribed organisation in the UK.
So I can say this declaration has my 100% support.

Unless it is a proscribed organisation, in which case I utterly condemn it, of course.

The BBC pushes the case for an illegal war on Iran with even bigger lies than Trump's.

I have expanded on my post yesterday about Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland's rewriting of history to conceal the ugly truth about Israel and its state ideology.

That's incredible: Baidu last year set up a driverless taxi service in Wuhan and a few other places called "Carrot Run" (萝卜快跑), and the experiment is proving super popular with already 6 million rides completed with a fleet of just 1,000 cars.

The main reason is cost: without a driver and able to operate 24/7, it costs only 1/3rd of the price of a taxi or Uber. The cost paid by users is between RMB0.5 to RMB1.0 per km ($0.07 to $0.14) which is INSANELY cheap. With such a service, a drive between Boston and NYC (348 km) would set you back between $24 and $48, in your own private taxi!

Another added benefit is that they've set up the cars so that customers can sing karaoke or watch movies in the back (something you can't exactly do in a typical Uber). And safety-wise it's also proving much better than human drivers with no major accident in 100 million kilometers travelled.

So obviously a better experience from a consumer standpoint and it'll doubtlessly become the norm in a few years. Which of course raises questions with regards to jobs: millions if not tens of millions of people in China live off driving (taxis, delivery, etc.) so we're looking at quite a disruption if all those jobs get replaced by AI. And at the pace at which China moves, it's going to happen sooner rather than later.

@AlanRMacLeod What sort of person could be an Israeli air force pilot ...

Belgian transport unions are refusing to load any military hardware going to Israel.

This kind of action is needed across the world.

If not now, when?

People are going to ask you, in future generations, what you did to stop the Israeli genocide in Gaza. You need to have an answer

Former ambassador and Assange advocate Craig Murray detained under UK terror laws

The detention is just the latest example of British terror laws being used to harass and intimidate dissidents, while brazenly prying into their private affairs

My latest: The right, from Trump to Tucker Carlson, have appropriated the concerns of the progressive left – unaccountable corporate power, dysfunctional politics, media-establishment collusion, the war industries – and harnessed them to their own cause https://t.co/dyTSmpdnDk

An interview with a Ukrainian academic-journalist packed with all the detailed stuff about Ukraine, Zelensky and violent ultra-nationalists the western corporate media never gets round to explaining. Fascinating and disturbing in equal measure https://t.co/Rw9wX1KRhb

Tens of thousands of fans of Red Star Belgrade—Serbia's most popular soccer team—gave a pointed response to the supposedly anti-war west tonight as they held signs showing 20+ countries & the year of their overthrow/invasion by the US.

Craig Murray: The establishment 'can’t allow Boris Johnson, who is fast becoming a liability to them, saying true things about Starmer which they wish to be buried. Watching their propaganda apparatus act in unison to defend Starmer.. has been fascinating' https://t.co/UZ9w8v5YGz
