On Israel’s need to secure Rafah, (I clicked link to “The Israeli Times”); Israel wants to evacuate civilians before engaging a military attack. But, won’t the terrorists dress in civilian clothing- so to speak? The US should flex some muscle in support of Israel.
Please provide a counter article to the one that Michael Walzer wrote. He obviously has no clear understanding of what Hamas has done and still plans to do, which is to repeat the atrocities of October 7 until all Jews are killed and Israel destroyed "from the river to the sea." Meaning all of it. There is no possible diplomatic solution to this. Nor has any army in the world, when facing a hostile, genocidal enemy, provided such enemy with "humanitarian aid," which Israel alone is expected to do and actually is doing. In addition, no other army in the world has taken so many precautions against civilian casualties as the IDF, which is made excruciatingly difficult because Hamas stores arms and hides terrorists in and under schools, hospitals, mosques, and residential neighborhoods. Any war will have civilian casualties and mistaken "friendly fire" but Israel has kept the numbers below what other armies have done, including ours in the United States. It surprises me that you would print Walzer's inept and factually weak evaluation of this just war.
Ah, a debate on immigration between conservatives and libertarians. Should be an intelligent, enlightening discussion, because the one faction that can't behave themselves when disagreed with wasn't invited.

True, true, true. Stupidity is upon us and being taught in our schools. Administrators and unions are cowards. Hang them all.
However, the folks in Indy were correct on not wanting kids the busses headed home fighting the million or so visitors. I just returned from the zone of totality on a trip that usually would take 1.75 hours that took 3.5. Maps app guided us onto rural roads for much of the travel or it would have been worse. Doubling the bus ride mightn't have been good for those kids.
The EVENT itself? Amazing. Just fucking amazing. A hole in the sky surrounded by a ring of the corona. It was like a portal to another dimension. Lasted just shy of 4 minutes. I've waited decades for the opportunity. As to such things, this was on a par with watching a Saturn VB rocket launch on a moonshot from Cape Kennedy in December 1972. The loudest noise imaginable and night turned to day as 3 people were launched to the moon.
Life has its extraordinary moments. Today was one for me.
'Jolene' was ever a silly song written and sung by a woman carrying .50 calibre weapons of mass distraction. I think the best cover is by her god-daughter Miley Cyrus. Seriously is anyone, man; woman; or tranny, going to kick either of them out of bed? Smart; attractive; humorous; talented; and, trailing in very last, wealthy. It'd be their BLOKES pathetically singing hands off!
Beyonce however; .... is she pretty or petty on the inside?
JUs t that last sentence, Stephen, that was a great comment. Last, however, was probably not needed. It is her cover of a great song. Wiseman and crew just don;'t get stuff.
Regarding our agreement on certain fundamental rights: well, at least we still have freedom of religion and have lots of guns. All the others are gone or going.
Also, here's an idea for journalism: rather than print a graph and write "well, at least Americans agree on what's important" perhaps use some critical thinking. For example, if we all think these are important, do we all think they are being upheld? Do you and the editorial staff think they are being upheld? If people are concerned about these rights, what should they do?
Wow. Oliver, your description of the work of Judith Butler makes you seem like a whiny, little, punk-ass bitch, and that's as nice as I can say it.
OK, we get it, you and Bari don't like transgender people, at least when anyone of them speaks or writes. But your little "nanny nanny boo-boo!" description of the reception of Butler's work is so childish you get laughed at, rather than with.
Here's your "journalism," paraphrased only a little:
"Judith Butler, a shitty so-called scholar (of course from Berkeley, home of communists and people who want gay rights), and who BTW HATES JEWS AND LOVES HAMAS! Anyway, this idiot wrote a book about trans people, or whatever. A couple reviewers were charitable, but the smart ones said the book sucked. And one dude from MIT totally cut her fucking legs off in his review! And she plagiarized, just like that DEI Affirmative Action antisemite weasel president of Harvard! Truly delish, and save some whipped cream for moi."
How many years of study did it take to produce such an erudite master of the quill?
"President Biden is set to announce a student debt relief plan that would wipe away the entire loan amount for more than four million Americans. White House officials said that 10 million borrowers could see debt relief of at least $5,000 on their undergraduate and graduate loans."

Not surprising - Mass General Brigham.
The eclipse was amazing.
Karen Butler’s word salad - thanks, Alex Byrne, for the heads up!
I fear that there are no hostages left … a successful ceasefire will never happen. Unfortunately, the War will drag on through the US election season.
I am tired of remakes. Can’t people write some new music?

I loved this reporting today- and all the extras. But this made me laugh out loud: “Just don’t act like you’ve discovered antibiotics.”
