I’ve been thinking this too. I’d also like to get back to China. And I’ve never been to Russia.

Casual joke about Kent State 2.0 from Bill Maher’s opening monologue.

spoiler“The ground war has now started in Gaza. The Israeli troops are going building by building hoping to root out Hamas-supporting radicals. And if it works there, they’re going to try it at Cornell.”

Also the head of Hamas military, Mohammed Deif - his wife, 7-month-old son, and 3-year-old daughter were killed by an Israeli air strike in 2014. He lost a brother and two family members in the current attack. (This is buried in a recent article about him.)

The latest live the-podcast dived into this.

The Israel lobby (AIPAC or however it’s spelled) has forbidden “ceasefire” but is allowing “humanitarian pause.”

If they were equivalent, then they would not prohibit one and allow the other.

Edit, so wth is a humanitarian pause?

Critical support to Cuomo for calling for Greater Arabia to back Palestine*

His thesis actually, as you certainly guessed:

“There is something being missed in all of this focus on limiting the right-and-wrong analysis of who should do what to justify Israel when it comes to Palestine’s welfare,” he said. “There is the inclusion of the Arab community in this analysis. For all the talk of ‘Arab brotherhood,’ Arab states condemning Israel and encouraging uprisings and basically holy war against them – the same countries, even those bordering Palestine, have offered no solutions for the Palestinians other than erasing Israel. No safe haven for Palestinians. … and barely any humanitarian aid. Did you know that? Shouldn’t it matter?”

On Realtime once she said - with intense contempt and disdain - that her parents were San Francisco communists who assisted Vietnam war draft dodgers. Even Maher was like wtf.
