In September, the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities reported that at least 21,000 Palestinian children had been disabled in Gaza since October 2023. Earlier this month, the Ministry of Health announced that over 6,000 amputation cases had been registered, with children comprising 25% of the total, making Gaza home to the highest number of child amputees per capita in the world.
Only if Trump lands in Venezuela for the talks and sits next to Maduro at all times.
Or a Zoom call.
Fuck. I was just about to fall asleep.
That’s scary.
My bet’s on Jamil Jivani - JD “Couchfucker” Vance’s buddy. He’s got the PP energy without any of the smarminess and he’s got real connections to MAGA.
The tool 🔧 wasn’t too bad. I would not have voted for him but I wouldn’t have felt scared for the country if he had become a PM.
And I think the Israelis would throw Jewish diaspora communities under the bus if it gains them more support from other groups who may be antisemitic. Have a problem with atisemitism? Come to Israel.
Probably not a realistic problem in Canada for the foreseeable future but it’s much more plausible someplaces.
Unlikely. There are also some retirements from the LPC that are expected so a stable majority is not very likely.
Not great.
With that said, flying getting more expensive wouldn’t be bad for the climate. But that’s a lame silver lining if any. The fact that they’re looking into privatization to begin with is a bad sign not just for the airports but for other public services too.
Could this be a trap?
Poland had been the Pentagon’s sole authorized supplier of TNT. But it has been sending much of what it makes across its border to Ukraine, which is using all that it produces for its own military purposes.
That’s crazy. I wonder how long would the MIC be able to sustain a hot war if the EU and PRC stops exporting production to the US.
That’s it, the demolition of Gaza can proceed.
Indiscriminate force? I thought this would be about freedom of religion. Missed opportunity!
I don’t think they’d abandon their program if Trump kicks the bucket. This is bigger than him. If the right loses power during this mandate, they may not regain it for a long time and they may not be able to criminalize the left to the point of preventing an FDR 2.0 being elected in the near future.
I mean, university itself tries hard to create the perception of a meritocratic system through its testing and filtering mechanisms. You can go through a complete undergrad degree not only without having the inequities around you pointed out, but the opposite - having a strenghtened feeling of meritocratic success. I know I did. Unlearning that took many years and a lot of luck. Of course some programs wouldn’t let you get away like that but the curriculum contradicts many of the university’s processes. I wish a specially crafted minor in humanities was mandatory for every university grad but also a version of such curriculum should be taught even in high school. A pipe dream.
A portion of my social circle would burst in flames at reading this news. Shit’s tough under the influence of hasbara. I’m the useful idiot though.
Souns like the Palestinians left to live in Gaza under such a plan would become an underclass.
CCS is such a sham.
Surrounded it in spoiler with appropriate title. Is there another way to mark it NSFW in a comment?
If the US takes control of Venezuela’s oil prod, the OPEC and therefore Saudi control over the oil price diminishes. Therefore Saudi revenues are likely to fall. While I don’t expect Saudi to do anything, there would be logic in them doing so. Perhaps MBS could use the backchannel to tell Trump not to invade.
