@LowCostNuclear Is Thorium reactor technology progressing to the point of us putting faith & support in this technology? It’s fuel “cheaper than dirt.”
@JustLuai Could we please have a little evidence for all your babble? Only using actual truth will mankind fashion a sane, workable society. Not demanding that IS our problem today.
@MaryLTrump Mary, you were great on CNN. My take: it’s America’s lousy education system at fault here. Americans are ignorant of what made America great. Many Americans haven’t a clue of the ideas behind our highly successful country. Jay Leno’s show used to make comedy out of it
@FissionPhil Sorry to respond so late but our whole big ship US Navy has been using nuclear power starting in 1955. The country of France has been enjoying carbon free nukes since the 60’s. China has been building nuclear reactors ASAP the last couple decades. But BigOil&Gas is powerful.
@Forbes I love almond milk. We write our future health history with our food choices. You were “taught” what tasted good by the food you were given. You can reprogram your definition of what tastes good. Do it, then go give a longer, healthier life. Let Science guide you, NOT tv ads.
In my book, Goliath, I recounted how a former Israeli military intelligence analyst told me he nearly lost his mind during the second Lebanon invasion in 2006, when the army ran out of targets, and his unit was asked to concoct them. This meant finding any civilian structure in southern Lebanon to hit, and obliterating family homes, hospitals, apartment blocs - anything. In a state of anguish, he asked a friend to break his leg with a 2x4 so he could escape military service, but the bone refused to give in. He eventually left Israel for Germany and became involved in anti-Zionist activism.
A handful of Israeli intelligence sources involved in the current assault Gaza appear to have developed similar issues with their military's targeting system. In anonymous interviews with the left-liberal @972mag, they disclosed how Israel uses AI to generate targets out of the Gaza population register. They call it a "mass assassination factory."
Under the AI system, known as "The Gospel," any home or neighborhood containing even a low level Hamas activist becomes a target, and the civilian death toll is known in advance: "Nothing happens by accident,” said one source. “When a 3-year-old girl is killed in a home in Gaza, it’s because someone in the army decided it wasn’t a big deal for her to be killed — that it was a price worth paying in order to hit [another] target. We are not Hamas. These are not random rockets. Everything is intentional. We know exactly how much collateral damage there is in every home.”
As is well known, Israel's Unit 8200 tracks cellphone signals to find targets. In the current round of fighting, if the army detects the cell signal of a Hamas target in a densely populated area like the Jabaliya refugee camp, "we shell based on a wide cellular pinpointing of where the target is, killing civilians. This is often done to save time, instead of doing a little more work to get a more accurate pinpointing," a source told 972.
The intelligence sources not only state that most targets in Gaza contain zero military value, but that the logic of "human shields" used to justify slaughtering civilians could easily be turned back on Israeli society. “I remember thinking that it was like if [Palestinian militants] would bomb all the private residences of our families when [Israeli soldiers] go back to sleep at home on the weekend,” reflected a soldier in an intel unit.
I have been saying since the start of the Israel military's blitzkreig on Gaza that its conduct is influenced less by strategic guidance than by a political imperative to satiate the outrage and bloodlust of the Jewish Israeli public. This too is confirmed by an intelligence source: "There is a feeling that senior officials in the army are aware of their failure on October 7, and are busy with the question of how to provide the Israeli public with an image [of victory] that will salvage their reputation.”
@mujishahjee@MaxBlumenthal@georgegalloway Most deaths by FAR are, as usual innocent Palestinians, mostly little children. Where are you Joe Biden? You could stop the bloodshed.
@PeterZeihan Poor Peter Zeihan creates fear about population size,
a biologist at Harvard invents the science of human longevity 🥹. In about 15 years we’ll be able slow, stop and even reverse our age. So by various incentives countries get the population age structure they need.
@evasavagiou@elonmusk Elon, we don’t believe any, I MEAN ANY, negativity aimed at you,
X, SpaceX, Tesla or your next great gift to America & the world.
So yes, chill & feel millions and millions of good
Vibes coming at you. Very Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours.
