Read what Hossam, a 24-year-old Palestinian journalist, wrote just hours before he was killed today.

Similar to how the Carrington-Cutileiro plan played out. It was agreed to and signed by representatives of all sides on March 18, 1992. Izetbegovic withdrew his signature on March 28, 1992 after meeting with the US amb. Warren Zimmerman. With this move, he chose to start the war.
So, it's 18 March, the 33rd Anniversary of the fabled Cutileiro Agreement in Bosnia-Herzegovina. There's a popular narrative of this agreement which typically goes something like this.
It's been brought up a bit more recently, particularly w/ comparisons to Ukraine. It's nonsense, and here's why. π§΅

Again, non-Jews have given themselves the right to define who is a Jew. This is still antisemitism.
The dominant form of pro-Israel politics in the US today is Christian Zionism, and it is antisemitic to the core.
And to be Palestinian here is to be the untermensch. We are seen as subhuman.

Columbiaβs mission is to teach, create, and advance knowledge. For over 270 years, that mission has been grounded in an enduring and essential commitment to freedom of expression, open inquiry, and generous, respectful debate.
Today, we were notified of federal action from Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Department of Education (ED), and the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) cancelling $400 million in federal funding to the University. The federal agencies cite βthe schoolβs continued inaction in the face of persistent harassment of Jewish students.β
There is no question that the cancellation of these funds will immediately impact research and other critical functions of the University, impacting students, faculty, staff, research, and patient care.
But let me be very clear: Columbia is taking the governmentβs action very seriously. I want to assure the entire Columbia community that we are committed to working with the federal government to address their legitimate concerns. To that end, Columbia can, and will, continue to take serious action toward combatting antisemitism on our campus.
Email from Columbia President Armstrong makes clear that admin still has no idea what itβs dealing with. No amount of βserious action to combat antisemitismβ (read: punish Palestine activists) will satisfy the Nazis. They see universities as an enemy institution to crush underfoot.

I used Gemini to work on a translation of a story and instead of translating it invented an entire middle section, some 1/3 of the entire story. It didnβt follow the style even close. It used shitloads of anaphora. I mean a ridiculous amount. π³π
