Bit of a double standard though, right? They don’t have to affirm Palestinian’s right to statehood. If not saying Israel is a legitimate state is anti-semitism, wouldn’t that make the same stance toward Palestine islamaphobia?

Asked about those findings on Monday, Miller noted that Israel said there were no tanks in the area, and that the State Department couldn’t attest to any particularities because it is only conveying what Israel has said.
The Washington Post previously confirmed there were armed military vehicles in the vicinity, as did Al Jazeera’s analysis of satellite imagery.
Most expansive intelligence apparatus on the globe, but they just can’t figure out what’s going on in Gaza.
What Euro Med said was also based on the testimony of locals. Sounds like he said she said and since the IDF destroyed all the buildings in that area it’ll be tough to prove definitely.
There are holes in Israel’s story here.

Aljamal lived on the first floor of a multi-story building, according to Euro-Med. The IDF said the hostages were found on the third floor.

From this interview in the Atlantic, looks like the guy being interviewed thinks it’s probably not constitutional as written. Basically it could run afoul the first amendment and they’d have to write a more specific law to enforce it.
Hmm, I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for the info.
This seems to imply that there aren’t already ICC warrants for Putin. There are…
Feels like Trump’s ties to the Saudis and Emeratis don’t get enough attention. The Russia stuff is definitely important as well but in these cases you have business dealing with actual state officials.
Edit: actually the other thing was with Oman not the UAE.

That doesn’t solve the lack of labor available though.
BRICS is less about alliances, in fact the UAE and Iran are enemies to the level of the US and Russia. It’s more about reducing the influence of Western sections on global politics. Basically anyone not reliant on the West financially would benefit from joining BRICS since it reduces the leverage the West has over them.
ETA: it’s a similar concept to OPEC where many countries are outright enemies.
Ah OK, I can’t read apparently. I thought you meant the attacks from Iraqi militias have been going on longer than the current Israeli invasion. I agree with your original comment.
For these particular groups the article says the exact opposite.
But on Nov. 2 they claimed their first ever attack on Israel.
In general it is pretty rare for anyone to directly attack Israel other than groups they created through their various occupations, mainly Hamas, Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad.
However, the three Egyptian intelligence sources told MEE that Burns was among several mediators who reviewed the draft before it was sent to Israel.
So they could be lying, but MEE is saying their sources are Egyptian intelligence familiar with the negotiation. I don’t think your characterization of the article is correct.
Yep. And the subheading I really have a problem with.
Reading too much into the language seems, at this point, to be less of a danger than reading too little into it.
The implication being that it’s low stakes to make this accusation without solid evidence. In reality the whole justification from the West for the state of affairs between Israel and Palestine is that Arabs are a bunch of backwards savages, and this extends to the way the West has acted throughout the Middle East.
I don’t think you understand. There were two buildings, the embassy and the consulate. The embassy was not directly hit, the consulate was.
While Iran’s consular building was leveled in the attack, according to Syria’s state news agency, its main embassy building remained intact. Still, the Iranian ambassador’s residence was inside the consular building.
Also looks like the Vienna Convention defines diplomatic missions not the Geneva Convention. My bad.
It was a consulate which is also covered by the Geneva convention as all diplomatic missions are. There really isn’t a significant distinction here.
Every trade has two sides. Someone has to sell you the options contract. No one is out there selling “free money” contracts. Why wouldn’t they just give you the money and skip the song and dance?
To everyone else: please don’t trade options if you don’t understand them, there is no quicker way to drain your savings.
This is the closest question in the survey to the article title (which I couldn’t bypass the paywall on):
Looks like net favorability is still positive for continued support to Ukraine even absent more US aid outside of southern Europe.
The leaks were legit, the guy got prosecuted and everything. Snopes thinks they’re legit as well as every other major media outlet:

I genuinely do not care who owns the factory as long as it creates jobs.
