When I ran for mayor of Jerusalem in efforts to change the status quo. I was told by EU and US officials that they can’t support any efforts that challenged “the leadership”. They remained silent when I got death threats. The international community doesn’t want a change.
Haven’t this family suffered enough? First Hamas murders their son, then extremist thugs threaten them! These extremists have also attacked Jews for sympathizing with Palestinians. They are storming West Bank villages, displacing residents & committing crimes w/impunity
Part of my interview with Forbes about how we got to this point. I know we are outraged now, but we should have been outraged years ago. Our failure to reach a peace agreement is why we are here. Our incompetent leaders is why we got to this point. Our outrage is late!
Get this: It's 1867. A scientist travels to Seychelles. Collects foraminifera, tries to preserve them in wine and then losses them (?). Finds a sample that was not in wine and gives to a friend that comes up with some ID’s. Publishes it. I love this guy!

So the Hunga Tonga and Hunga Ha'apai were two separate islands before an eruption in 2014-15, and they split up before the violent eruption last Saturday. And now, very little of the two islands are left.
