"Then there’s Netanyahu, whose political career should have ended in disgrace seven months ago when he failed to foresee and prevent the devastating Oct. 7 attack on Israel."
"Netanyahu also faces a probable conviction on corruption charges and even possible jail time if he loses office, not to mention an official inquiry into his pre-war actions that would destroy what remains of his reputation. This is not a man who will act in the higher interests of the nation" - Dyer
While the U.S. is trying to spin its abstention, rather than veto, of the UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza as not representing a shift in policy, it most certainly is.
Of course, this is not the result of some change of heart by the U.S. regime, but rather due to the relentless efforts of innumerable folks around the country to lift up the Palestinian cause, to demand an immediate ceasefire, and to demonstrate the political cost to those in charge of continuing with the status quo.
It is disheartening beyond belief that the notion of opposing genocide should require such mobilization, but such are the fascistic times we live in. And while a victory, it is not time to let up the pressure. Nonetheless, much love to those organizing and mobilizing and acting for Palestinian liberation in whatever ways you are able.
Started up a new character for Diablo IV's new Season of the Construct, went with a female barbarian. Doing an Echoing Train build, which is a charging/lunging build (this one here: https://mobalytics.gg/diablo-4/builds/barbarian/lunging-strike) and loving it.
Here's Rainath the barb early on at level 6, and now, I think she's around level 15. I don't play a ton. But it's a blast.
My friends know me so well. One sent me a clip of Heilung's Alfadhirhaiti and knew I would love it 🤣
Best of all, I saw the song paired with a scene from Barbaren and it was chef's kiss
A federal jury in Louisiana on Wednesday acquitted a white state trooper charged with violating the civil rights of a Black motorist despite body-camera footage that showed the officer pummeling the man 18 times with a flashlight.
The acquittal comes as federal prosecutors investigate Louisiana state troopers caught on body-camera video punching, stunning and dragging another Black motorist, Ronald Greene, before he died in their custody .
