This is him finding his mother's remains at al-Shifa Hospital after Israel's occupation forces withdrew.
He found her laying on the floor, like she would be sleeping, and said to her: "Wake up, mum. I'm here."
But she had been shot from close range.

All the AI tools that I've tried report the current dominant biases back to you unless you grill it and then fact check it and then grill it some more. Buyers beware.

The ministry's paper said evidence about that was mixed but there was a case to consider the amount of MΓ£ori words in books for children learning to read. Literacy experts told RNZ this week MΓ£ori words were part of everyday New Zealand English and did not present problems for beginning readers because their spelling was regular and their vowel sounds matched some of the English vowels.
Their racism knows no bounds. π€¬ #nzpol

This is enraging neo-colonialist BS. Nz English now regularly incorporates a good number of te reo MΔori kupu. Everyone understands these basic words or lives with their head up their racist arse.
