“A new study has found that patients of newly trained doctors tend to have higher survival rates if the doctor scored highly on board certification exams. Tests, it turns out, might not be racist, but actually quite good predictors of competence. (Harvard Medical School)” So relived. For the last couple of years I’ve been worried that I’m wrong for wanting really smart people giving me health care.

So Israel actually killed a few more people than Hamas reported, but fewer of them were civilians. But still many thousands of civilians have been killed, including many women and children. When the number was 10,000, it was too damn many. When it was 20,000, it was too damn many. And you want what, a rousing cheer because fewer of the nearly 40,000 deaths were civilians? That’s some sick bullshit.

“We only murdered half the civilians they claimed!” will not go down in history as a great cry of victory.
