For the reasons I gestured at above, it's clear Netanyahu is pretty indifferent about Jews being killed.

Is it an end he wants unto itself? No.

Is he perfectly happy to sacrifice thousands of Jewish lives to advance his own interests? Absolutely.

The point stands though - substitute "Juden" for Palestinian, and you'll struggle to find much difference between Israel and Nazi Germany. You'll remember that the Jews weren't the only people the Nazis targeted - they weren't even the first.

Oof - yep - I was way off on that one - thanks.

I'll leave that as-is though.

Isn't it nice when problems just solve themselves?

For some reason, this seems more at home in Iain Banks' culture series than Dune.

I'd love to have seen Jodo's Dune though - if seemed like it would have been wild if it ever saw the light of day.

The part I find remarkable is how far we've slid backwards in the last century. I don't see a modern version of this narrative being run in contemporary US papers.

From what I see, you'll get this in the next GOP term. It might take a year, it might take 10, but if you fuckers can't convince or bully the liberals into recognising and preventing the naked fascists from taking power... well, I hope you're fighting like your lives depend on it.

You can practically smell the classless, stateless, moneyless nature of their communist utopia.

The whole world is inundated with news about the election, looking on in horror at the fact that Trump, in spite of everything has a 50/50 shot at the presidency. The fact that he remains viable is one of the worst enditements possible on the US government and people.

Yeah - we see you guys, and we've decided.

Thanks for taking the time to write that up!

That all makes sense - though unless there's info in missing, I'd argue the woman should have been responsible for managing her own allergies rather than her husband, but that's beside the point, and I understand your position on speaking ill of the dead.

Whatever the case, it does certainly seem like the truth was steamrolled by a good story - though I do think the waiver arguments underpinning that side of the case will wind up getting pressure tested in pretty short order.

Thanks again.

Meanwhile, Tom Bombadull has the power to end the whole ordeal without breaking a sweat, and zero fucks to give.
