  • I guess that’s what “winning” an argument with breathless vitriolic invective looks like in your brain.

    I don’t actually object to many of the fragments of coherent ideas in your vomit of a rant. But your psyche right now seems to require that I stand in for some kind of a Great Satan or something so I’m not going to pretend to discuss any further with you. All you want is a punching bag. Go punch a wall or something.

    What’s actually funny is that all this boils down to a nationalist argument about whether Argentina gets to lay claim and ethnically cleanse the Falklands. You’re frothing at the mouth because you want to conquer 3500 people who literally did nothing to you or anybody and you’re dressing it up as “anti-imperialism”. Go froth some more.













  • I don’t know what “Israel’s right to exist” means. Like, I believe that Israel should exist as a secular, democratic country with fully equal rights for all people regardless of their ethnicity or religion, with the right of Palestinian refugees and their descendants to return, with reparations for the victims of genocide and apartheid, with full accountability for the perpetrators of crimes against humanity, and with a national project overseen by the international community that will effect the deep institutional and educational deradicalization of the population, including a complete political and institutional repudiation of all kind of jewish-supremacist forms of zionism, as well as a German-style Erinnerungskultur, and by having as its Staatsräson a commitment to the defence and security of Palestine. Is it jail for me in the Bundesrepublik or not?








  • The NCAG was established by the Board of Peace, which was in turn set up by US President Donald Trump when he brokered the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel last October. But it has remained based outside Gaza for months, reportedly due to Israeli objections to its entry into the war-devastated territory.

    Hamas and other Palestinian factions have held several rounds of talks in Cairo with mediators to narrow differences, particularly over the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire.

    The first phase involved the release of the last Israeli hostages held by Hamas in exchange for Palestinians detained by Israel.

    The transition to the second phase, which was to involve Hamas’s disarmament and a gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza, has been stalled for months.

    Israeli forces have actually expanded their presence in the territory in recent months, taking control of nearly 70 percent.

    I love the smell of Oslo in the morning…
