Chased, beaten and robbed: survivors describe Israeli settler violence in West Bank Palestinians and activists forced out of the village of Mughayyir al-Deir say they were harassed, stoned and shot at

This was an attempted lynching: 9 Palestinians and an Israeli were hunted by Israeli settlers with guns in Mughayyir al-Deir, occupied West Bank.

All of them, including a 14 yo boy, were so badly injured they had to be hospitalized.

I edited this episode. It's really powerful. Hearing Maram speak at length about her daily life in Gaza under Israeli siege and bombardment is just ... I don't know how to communicate how privileged we are to hear the stories of someone resisting genocide. We need to listen, we need to do more.

Perhaps the only conspiracy theory that makes me laugh

Il n'y a qu'un seul endroit en Europe où le Premier ministre Netanyahou est le bienvenu : la Cour pénale internationale de La Haye.

Je vais lire ça. Du côté des médias français traditionnels (le monde, libération par exemple) c’est relativement bien couvert.
Par contre, les réactions des partis de gauche de la gauche sont scandaleuses. Celle de Varoufakis aussi d’ailleurs…

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

It’s so refreshing to hear is straightforward analysis (and swearing 😂) of AI.

Perhaps time to re-evaluate the relevance in the use of generative AI, no ? It’s clearly doing more harm than «unleashing your creativity ».

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

Meanwhile, The Guardian @theguardian.com decided to team up with OpenAI.

Why would anyone trust their reporting on AI now? It’s the definition of a conflict of interests.

What is surprising is @theguardian.com opening a partnership with OpenAi 🤌

US orders halt to virtually all foreign aid except for Israel and Egypt Internal memo to US state department staff explicitly makes exceptions for military assistance to Israel and Egypt

The very idea of Palestinian freedom is so loathed by the US that two of the only states getting aid are the two states blockading Gaza, a strip mostly populated by children
