Wow!
Let this sink in: After the first round of US-Iran talks in Islamabad, US intelligence picked up that Israel was planning to assassinate the Iranian negotiators as they were returning to Tehran.
The US told regional states to alert Iran.
Israel is a state that, on paper, is a US partner but in reality is so extreme in its obsession to undermine US diplomacy that it even tries to assassinate those the US engages with in crucial negotiations.
I can't recall a government as terrified of peace as the one running Israel.

@theo I tested it today. Rerouted for "refactor my GSA for PBPK modelling package", "check sample size calc for an SAP", "build PopPK model for drug X in NONMEM", "rework a fucking edu drug-drug-interaction simulator game FOR KIDS". Just totally crazy und useless.
One study found Musk’s closing of the U.S. Agency for International Development could cause the deaths of millions of children. https://t.co/qaQMoCPf82 (Photo: Associated Press)
Don't fall for Elon Musk's gaslighting.
There is a massive, life-or-death difference between well-planned budget cuts and a sudden, reckless halt to promised medical aid.
Musk is actively lying about the fatal consequences of his USAID cuts. The US is not obligated to fund healthcare for the entire planet, but if a nation decides to pull back its global aid, it must be done responsibly. Ripping away funding mid-treatment means you are directly responsible for the preventable deaths that follow.
Instead of owning up to the fallout, Musk is flooding X with dishonest spin. He first challenged critics to name even one person whose death he caused. When people actually did, he immediately moved the goalposts, claiming that any spending cut inevitably causes deaths.
He is a dishonest charlatan trying to hide the fact that his chaotic decisions got thousands of vulnerable children and adults killed. That will be his lasting legacy
Elon, I can give you many, many names of people who have died because of your aid cuts.:
*Yamah Freeman was a 23-year-old woman who died in childbirth because you stopped paying for the diesel for ambulances in her part of Liberia. I talked to her parents and sister in their village.
*Gbessey Kiadu, age 1, died of malaria because of your cuts in Liberia. I talked to his mom in her village.
*Ibrahim Koroma, an infant, died of AIDS in Sierra Leone after you interrupted HIV supplies. I talked to health workers who cared for him.
*Achol Deng was an 8-year-old girl with HIV in South Sudan who died when you cut funding for the health care worker who provided her medicines. I talked to him.
I could go on and on. In almost every village you go to in South Sudan, Uganda, Liberia, Sierra Leone or other countries I reported in, you find people dying because of aid cuts. I challenge you: Come with me on a reporting trip, and we'll talk to these moms and dads, and you'll see the dying children themselves. I think if you see the kids whose lives are at stake, maybe you'll change your mind.
Israeli authorities and security forces deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in Gaza, and war crimes in the occupied West Bank, an independent UN inquiry said https://t.co/61poVhRzmR
Elon is running ads on his already boosted posts, on his own platform to defend himself, against voices he’s already suppressing with the algorithm. A pathetic self-serving trillionaire.
Ach wie nett. Meine Großeltern lebten und arbeiteten 60 Jahre in diesem Land, sprechen aber aufgrund der Lebensrealität vieler Gastarbeiter der 1. Generation leider kein perfektes Deutsch. Jetzt müssten sie also um den Einlass ins Freibad bangen? Das Land verändert sich.
