The greatest works of art (and architecture) of the most accomplished artist in history - a thread 🧵

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

266 years ago today one of the strangest artists in history was born: William Blake.

He was a poet, a prophet, a painter, a Romantic, an environmentalist, an abolitionist, and a mystic.

The word "unique" is overused, but William Blake truly was unlike any other...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr says the quiet part out loud & fully destroys his campaign.

“Israel is a bulwark for us... it’s almost like having an aircraft carrier in the Middle East. If Israel disappears, Russia, China, and BRICS+ countries will control 90% of the oil in the world and that would be cataclysmic for US national security.”

Would love to see all the people who gave me crap about RFK Jr’s Zionism tell me “Israel-Palestine is just one issue!” now that we’re on the brink of WWIII. Happy to have never supported his Zionist warmongering. Unhappy that my fear of US funding of more wars & genocide is true.

🚨🚨The GAS ⛽️ fields of Gaza behind the official and declared causes of the invasion

“To understand what one of the objectives of the Israeli attack on Gaza is, you have to go deep, exactly 600 meters below sea level, 30 kilometers off its coast. Here, in Palestinian territorial waters, there is a large natural gas field, Gaza Marine, estimated at 30 billion cubic meters worth billions of dollars. Other gas and oil deposits, according to a map developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (a US government agency), are located on land in Gaza and the West Bank. Natural gas in the Palestinian Authority: the potential of the marine offshore of Gaza Field | The Washington Institute
Gaza marine offshore field.

In 1999, with an agreement signed by Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian Authority entrusted the exploitation of Gaza Marine to a consortium formed by British Gas Group and Consolidated Contractors (a private Palestinian company), with respectively 60% and 30% of the shares, of which the Authority's Investment Fund holds a 10% share. Two wells, Gaza Marine-1 and Gaza Marine-2, are drilled.
But they never come into operation because they are blocked by Israel, which claims to have all the gas at rock-bottom prices. Through former Prime Minister Tony Blair, envoy of the "Quartet for the Middle East", an agreement is being prepared with Israel which deprives the Palestinians of three quarters of future gas revenues, paying their share into an international account controlled by Washington and London.
But soon after winning the elections in 2006, Hamas rejected the agreement, calling it a theft, and called for its renegotiation. In 2007, current Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon warned that "the gas cannot be extracted without a military operation that eradicates Hamas control in Gaza." In 2008, Israel launched Operation Cast Lead against Gaza. In September 2012 the Palestinian Authority announced that it had resumed gas negotiations with Israel, despite opposition from Hamas. Two months later, Palestine's admission to the UN as a "non-member observer state" strengthened the Palestinian Authority's position in the negotiations.
However, Gaza Marine remained blocked, preventing the Palestinians from exploiting the natural riches available to them. At this point the Palestinian Authority has taken another path. On 23 January 2014, in the meeting between Palestinian President Abbas and Russian President Putin, the possibility of entrusting the exploitation of the gas field in the waters of Gaza to the Russian Gazprom was discussed, as announced by the Itar-Tass agency, underlining that Russia and Palestine intend to strengthen cooperation in the energy sector. In this context, in addition to the exploitation of the Gaza field, the exploitation of an oil field near the Palestinian city of Ramallah in the West Bank was envisaged. In the same area the Russian company Technopromexport was ready to participate in the construction of a thermoelectric power plant with a capacity of 200 MW.

The formation of the new Palestinian government of national unity on June 2, 2014 strengthened the possibility that the agreement between #Palestine and Russia would materialize. Ten days later, on June 12, the three young Israelis were kidnapped and found killed on June 30: l This is the exact casus belli that triggered the “Protective Barrier” operation against Gaza. An operation that was part of Tel Aviv's strategy, aimed at also taking over the energy reserves of the entire eastern basin, including the Palestinian, Lebanese and Syrian ones, and of Washington's strategy which, by supporting Israel, aimed at controlling the entire #MiddleEast, preventing for Russia to regain influence in the region. An explosive mixture, whose victims were once again the Palestinians. But soon after winning the elections in 2006, #Hamas rejected the agreement, calling it a theft, and called for its renegotiation. (….1/2)

Interesting interview of @VivekGRamaswamy by @TuckerCarlson

[Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor]

I never cease to be amazed by the blinkers regularly put on by Western media. They are so quick to judge other countries, so blind to their own! This @BBC analysis says, "Western nations have condemned alleged extraterritorial assassinations carried out by countries such as Russia or Iran or Saudi Arabia. They will not want India to join that list." Hello? The two foremost practitioners of extra-territorial assassinations in the last 25 years have been Israel and the US! Any mirrors available in the West?

I have learned from experience that the experts, the government, and conventional wisdom are often wrong. ‘Inflation is transitory.” “C19 did not escape from the Wuhan lab.” “@Ukraine will fall in less than a week.” “Its not possible because it hasn’t been done before or because it hasn’t happened before.”

It is often the outlier with no experience in a field that challenges the status quo, that makes the important discovery, that has the unique insight, or creates the transformational innovation.

@elonmusk was not an expert in payments, electric cars or rockets. The ‘experts’ were at Visa, GM and NASA.

When you are part of the establishment, it is hard to challenge the conventional wisdom. You are incentivized not to. And when your economic livelihood can be threatened by an alternative point of view or a new innovation, you are less likely to believe it or its viability.

The greatest opportunities for discovery, innovation, understanding, and profits often exist in the unexplored paths, the unasked and unanswered questions, and in the improbable possibilities.

Our best investments have been: (1) in the stock of a real estate company going bankrupt, (2) from betting that a triple-A rated company was insolvent, and (3) betting that a virus in China would cause a global economic shutdown.

Each of these investments were met with extreme skepticism at the time they were made. In each case, we were the naive ones when we made these investments. We were not bankruptcy investors, experts in bond insurers or credit default swaps, nor did we know anything about viruses or pandemics.

From my experience, knowledge is advanced and insights are gleaned by studying alternative points of view from conventional and unconventional sources of information, and by not discrediting a point of view simply because it comes from someone who is not an accredited member of the relevant establishment, who does not have an advanced degree in the subject at hand, and/or someone whom has been criticized in the media.

In an effort to get to the truth, I try to keep my mind open to alternative possibilities and weigh them against each other. I often find that truth can emerge when two or more articulate and intelligent individuals in an open forum discuss and debate a controversial subject and are required to address unscripted questions from a knowledgeable audience or moderator.

The above is why I added to the pot in attempting to convince @PeterHotez to discuss vaccines with @RobertKennedyJr on @joerogan. I think knowledge will emerge from the discussion that will catalyze further explorations or investigations that will bring us closer to the truth and help us answer questions about vaccine efficacy and safety that remain unsettled for many. And if @PeterHotez is not the best or most knowledgeable advocate for vaccines, then we should find another one.

In getting to the truth, I want to hear from the greatest skeptics and advocates. Both deserve a platform on the path to truth.

And no, I am not an anti-vaxxer.

Here we go!

British imperialism show could be Bollywood’s answer to Succession

It is Game of Thrones meets Succession, a vicious cocktail of battles and brutality, treasure and treachery. The pitch for the next big drama series sounds like high fantasy, but it centres not on imaginary moguls but real-life Mughals. The history of the East India Company (EIC) is coming to a screen near you.

The Anarchy, William Dalrymple’s acclaimed history of the EIC’s rise from Elizabethan trading company to rulers of India, is set to become an international TV series after it was acquired by a former Disney executive who is one of Bollywood’s biggest producers.

“The idea is to do it on a massive scale,” Dalrymple told The Times. “Either you don’t do it or you do it guns blazing with a cast of a thousand elephants.”
