To describe a protestor's act of SELF-immolation as "hate and incitement TOWARD Israel" (emphases mine) is to play a victim's card ad absurdum. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/30/world/middleeast/protester-fire-israeli-consulate-atlanta.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

"Control over the infrastructure that produces AI — the cloud, the data, the operating systems, the semiconductors — allows tech giants to shape 'the entire downstream ecosystem to serve their own short-term private interests in ways that will in many instances prevent other companies and individuals from using AI to sole (sic) urgent challenges and improve people’s lives.'" https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2023/11/21/world/openai-implosion/

Thomas ZimmerThe Washington Post continues to undermine all its stated principles in the most shameful way by platforming Thiessen - whose sole purpose is to launder rightwing ideas and talking points for a mainstream audience. In this case: The disgusting bloodlust for war with Iran. 1/
Qasim Rashid, Esq.I stand by what I've long said. Attacks on civilians are never justified. Hamas terrorist attacks, which have killed 200 Israeli civilians, are condemnable, inexcusable, and horrific. My deepest condolences to the loved ones of those lost.
Furthermore, Hamas is not Palestine. Israel's attacks, which have killed 230 Palestinian civilians, are condemnable, inexcusable, & horrific. Israel now cutting off electricity to 2M+ Gazan civilians is collective punishment & violates international law.

Let’s be clear. Occupation is violence. And innocent children & civilians continue to suffer the gravest consequences of this violence. The USA & the world must stand together & stop this violence by upholding justice based diplomacy—the one tactic that can truly create peace between Palestine & Israel.
I will always stand for justice for Israel & justice for Palestine, where every Israeli civilian & child is safe, & every Palestinian civilian & child is safe. That is the only path forward.
