I fail to see how Israel or Netanyahu has any leverage over the USA to simply not veto a UN resolution that all other Western countries either support or abstain on.
A US vote against (without veto) or an abstention is entirely within his power to do.
Also, sidestepping Congress to deliver military aid to Israel is also not something that can be blamed on anyone else than Biden.
This is why I don't peel oranges.
With a sharp knife and some practice, it is easy to just cut away the skin.
One thing I have definitely observed over the years.
It seems only the left comes up with new ideas and so, even when they don't have political power, they still move society forward.
And yes, there are backlash and temporary regressions, but overall, no free country seems to be moving towards old, conservative ideas.
For humanity, the only way seems forward. Towards the newer and better ideas.
I don't think saving money and eating at home are conservative values.
Lots of liberals and progressives do those things, too.
Heck, poor minorities do that to an extreme.
Same here. I got older and richer and became even more left wing than I used to be.
But what is true, is that society is becoming more progressive faster than I am, so by the time I am 70, I'll probably be a relative relic.
Waiting for SBF to respond to this.
They are probably eating everything they can find, considering they are living under famine. If there is a bag of popcorn in Gaza, they will eat it.
But I agree, this doesn't look like popcorn to me.
RIP Navalny.
I remember him flying back from Germany to Russia after the poisoning. Watching Ricky & Morty with his wife.
Very brave, but incomprehensibly stupid.
If ever there was a person who had a justified claim to political asylum, it was him.
I learned this back in the 90s, I'm surprised new research is needed.
The solution seems to be LED lighting. The right LED bulbs don't trigger the bug brains.
Edit to add source (below) and I forget the detail: it's about using LEDs with less blue light, since blue light affects the bugs.

Congress, how does it work again...
Perhaps read up on how the US constitution actually works.
