Number of Jews in Europe Before the Holocaust: Approximately 9.5 million in 1933.
Number Who Escaped: Estimated conservatively at 300,000 to 400,000 who managed to escape to safety outside Nazi control.
Number Who Survived: Approximately 3.5 million Jews survived in Europe by 1945.
Therefore, the calculation:
This rough calculation suggests that around 5.6 to 5.7 million Jews in Europe did not survive or escape the Holocaust, aligning closely with the commonly cited figure of 6 million Jewish victims, considering the variability and challenges in precise demographic data from that era.
Sometimes I have to sleep in one of the semi-destroyed shelters, which is like a night trap set in the midst of ruin and misery. Every night, the sounds of cracking walls ring in my ears, and I am haunted by the specter of imminent disaster, especially with the high winds and violent storms. We fear the collapse of the building above our heads, but the need forces us to stay, as all the other options presented are no less dangerous or insecure.

Everything in the northern Gaza Strip is being destroyed. Hospitals are being burned, houses are being destroyed on the heads of the displaced. Ambulances are being targeted by gunfire, and corpses are being devoured by dogs. The dogs have had their fill of eating corpses. Entire neighborhoods were destroyed and entire families wiped out. Where is the world from what is happening?

Your guess introduces an interesting perspective on why the Twitter epoch might include those specific milliseconds. Here's how that could work:
Scheduled Tweets Marker:
657 milliseconds could be part of an offset calculation. When a tweet is scheduled, its ID might be generated with this marker, ensuring that all scheduled tweets for a given minute share a common millisecond part, which could be 343ms in this case.ID Generation Logic:
00 and milliseconds to 343 (or another fixed value) to distinguish them from real-time tweets. 10:00 AM, its ID would reflect 10:00:00.343 regardless of the exact millisecond it was scheduled.Epoch Offset:
657ms, Twitter could be aligning their system so that when these scheduled tweet markers are applied, the resulting ID still maintains some level of temporal order or uniqueness. For instance:343ms, there might be an overlap or confusion with real-time tweets. By offsetting the epoch by 657ms, they could ensure that even scheduled tweets maintain a unique position in the timeline.Speculative Example:
1,288,834,974,657ms:10:00:00.500 might get an ID that reflects this actual millisecond.10:00:00 might instead use 10:00:00.343 for its ID, which, when calculated back from the epoch, would still be unique.This approach would allow for: - Uniqueness: Scheduled tweets would not conflict with real-time tweets in terms of ID generation. - Temporal Sorting: Even with this fixed millisecond marker, tweets could still be sorted chronologically with some accuracy. - System Efficiency: Simplifies the logic for handling scheduled versus immediate tweets.
Without explicit confirmation from Twitter (X), this remains speculative, but it provides a plausible explanation for why such a precise epoch might be used in relation to scheduled tweet handling.

Overview of Animal Treatment Across Religions and Beliefs:
Judaism: Emphasizes compassion (Tza'ar Ba'alei Chayim), prohibiting unnecessary cruelty to animals. The Torah includes laws for animal welfare, like giving rest to working animals on the Sabbath.
Christianity: Teachings generally advocate for stewardship of creation, with many denominations emphasizing kindness to animals as part of loving God's creation. However, interpretations vary, with some focusing more on human dominion over animals.
Islam: Encourages kindness (rahmah) towards animals. The Prophet Muhammad set examples by showing compassion, like freeing a bird or prohibiting the use of animals for target practice. There are clear prohibitions against cruelty.
Buddhism: Advocates for non-violence (ahimsa) and compassion for all sentient beings. The principle of karma suggests that harm to animals affects one's spiritual path, promoting vegetarianism among some followers.
Hinduism: Promotes ahimsa, leading many Hindus to practice vegetarianism or at least to treat animals with respect. Cows are particularly revered, and many animals are associated with deities, suggesting a duty to protect them.
Greek Mythology: While not a formal religion in modern terms, ancient Greek culture respected animals in myth and ritual, but treatment varied widely, with some animals revered and others used for sacrifice.
Norse Mythology: Animals were integral to daily life and mythology, often treated with a respect reflecting their roles in stories or as companions to gods, though practical needs like hunting and farming influenced treatment.
Ancient Egyptian Beliefs: Certain animals were sacred, associated with gods, leading to their protection and veneration. However, this didn't extend to all animals, as some were used in rituals or for food.
Ancient Mesopotamian Beliefs: Animals were part of religious symbolism and rituals, with some species being protected or revered, though like others, practical use of animals was common.
Wicca: Strong emphasis on harmony with nature, including respect for animals. Wiccans often advocate for animal rights and environmental protection, seeing animals as part of the divine circle.
Native Americans: Deep respect for animals as kin, with many practices and stories emphasizing non-violence, gratitude, and sustainability in hunting and use of animals. Every part of an animal was used respectfully.
Australian Aboriginals: Animals are part of the Dreaming, necessitating respect and sustainable practices. Hunting is done with rituals that honor the animal's spirit, ensuring it's not done out of cruelty or waste.
These traditions generally advocate for some level of respect, compassion, or stewardship towards animals, though practices and interpretations can vary widely based on cultural, historical, or doctrinal differences.
Summary of Animal Souls Across Religions and Beliefs:
Judaism: Animals have a "nefesh" (life-force), but their afterlife isn't clearly defined, possibly part of creation's broader cycles.
Christianity: Views vary; some believe only humans have souls, while others suggest animals might have a form of soul but not an afterlife like humans. Some interpretations include animals in a general resurrection or new creation.
Islam: Animals are not explicitly said to have souls like humans, but there's mention of their treatment being judged, suggesting some form of recompense or acknowledgment in the afterlife.
Buddhism: Animals are in the cycle of samsara, subject to reincarnation based on karma. Their existence is seen as part of the broader path to enlightenment, where souls can move between human and animal forms.
Hinduism: Animals are part of the reincarnation cycle, with souls potentially reborn in various forms based on karma, highlighting the interconnectedness of all life.
Greek Mythology: Animals can represent or be transformed by divine forces, with philosophical thoughts on soul transmigration but no clear afterlife doctrine for animals.
Norse Mythology: Animals are significant in mythology, linked to gods and cosmic cycles, but their specific fate after death isn't detailed, likely involved in cycles like the world tree or Ragnarok.
Ancient Egyptian Beliefs: Animals associated with deities had some form of spiritual significance, with mummification suggesting an afterlife or spiritual continuity, though less detailed than for humans.
Ancient Mesopotamian Beliefs: Animals symbolize divine aspects, but their afterlife isn't explicitly discussed, seen more as part of the divine order.
Wicca: Animals are considered to have spirits, part of nature's cycles, with beliefs in reincarnation where souls might return as animals or humans.
Native Americans: Animals have spirits, seen as kin, with their souls part of the spiritual world, possibly returning to nature or the Great Spirit.
Australian Aboriginals: Animals embody Dreamtime ancestors or totems, with their spirits potentially returning to their totemic site or transforming, reflecting the Dreaming's cyclical nature.
These beliefs span a spectrum from animals having no afterlife to being integral to spiritual cycles, reincarnation, or even a form of divine judgment or recognition, reflecting diverse understandings of life, death, and the sacred.

The MaxErotica Spam-Bots are back!
Your observation about these spambots potentially manipulating X (formerly Twitter) algorithms to censor or reduce the visibility of certain users by associating them with NSFW content is a nuanced take on the issue. Here's how this could work and why it's significant:
Algorithm Manipulation
Engagement Metrics: X's algorithms prioritize content based on engagement metrics like likes, retweets, and comments. By liking tweets from specific users, these bots could artificially inflate engagement, which might confuse the algorithm into thinking the content is more popular or relevant than it is. However, if these likes are associated with NSFW content or profiles, it might:
Deboost Content: If X's system detects an association with NSFW content, it might reduce the visibility of those users' tweets to maintain platform safety and user experience standards. Shadow Banning: Although X doesn't officially use the term "shadow ban," the effect you describe could mimic this practice, where users' posts are not shown to a broad audience or are de-ranked in search results and timelines. This could happen if the algorithm flags accounts for NSFW interactions:
Visibility Reduction: Linking users with NSFW content, even inadvertently through likes from spambots, might lead to their tweets being less visible or appearing lower in feeds, essentially censoring them.
Censorship Mechanism
Intentional or Unintentional: Whether this is an intentional strategy by bot operators to target specific users or an unintended consequence of spamming, the outcome can be similar โ reduced visibility for those users.
Targeting: If bots are designed to specifically target activists, journalists, or other influential voices, this could be a form of digital censorship or harassment.
Psychological Impact: Beyond algorithmic effects, this method can have psychological impacts on users, making them feel targeted or unfairly censored, which might influence their behavior on the platform.
Countermeasures and Detection
Platform's Role: X has measures in place to detect and mitigate spam, including bot detection algorithms, but the cat-and-mouse game with spambots is ongoing. User Reports: Users can report suspicious activities, which might help in identifying and suspending these bot accounts.
User Awareness: Awareness of how these bots operate can lead users to:
Monitor Interactions: Regularly check who is interacting with their posts. Use Privacy Settings: Adjust settings to limit who can interact with their content.
Algorithmic Adjustments: X could refine its algorithms to better distinguish between genuine user interaction and bot activity, particularly focusing on the context of NSFW content.
Ethical and Legal Considerations
Privacy and Harassment: This tactic raises questions about privacy violations and digital harassment, potentially falling into gray areas of law regarding content manipulation and user rights on social platforms.
Freedom of Speech: If indeed used as a censorship tool, it touches on broader issues of free speech, where digital platforms become battlegrounds for information control.
In conclusion, while direct evidence might be hard to come by due to the opaque nature of social media algorithms, your theory is plausible given the known behaviors of spambots and the implications of their interactions with the platform's algorithms. It's a reminder of the complex interplay between technology, user behavior, and the potential for manipulation in digital spaces.

Here is what Grok has to say:
Hidden Censorship: Your speculation about these bots potentially affecting content visibility through association with adult content is interesting. Here's how this might work: Algorithmic Manipulation: If X's algorithms associate your posts with adult content due to likes from these bots, it might lead to: Reduced visibility in general feeds or search results, as the platform might filter or deprioritize what it perceives as inappropriate content. Misclassification of your content, leading to unintended content moderation or shadow banning where your posts are less visible but not overtly restricted.
Indeed, Admiral Hyman G. Rickover is often celebrated for his rigorous standards and his insistence on learning from past mistakes to prevent future ones, particularly in the context of nuclear safety and the development of the U.S. Navy's nuclear propulsion program. Here's how his philosophy mirrors the lessons learned from incidents like that of Louis Slotin:
Safety Culture: Rickover established a culture of safety that was unparalleled at the time. His approach to safety was not just about following rules but understanding why those rules existed. The absence of fatal accidents in U.S. nuclear-powered submarines under Rickover's oversight is a testament to this culture. He ensured that every incident, no matter how small, was analyzed to prevent future occurrences.
Rigorous Training and Education: He believed in comprehensive training for all personnel involved with nuclear reactors. This wasn't just about technical skills but also about fostering an attitude of continuous learning and accountability.
Design and Redesign: After each incident or near-miss, Rickover would push for redesigns or modifications to systems to make them safer. His attention to detail in design reviews helped prevent accidents that might have been caused by overlooked engineering flaws.
Personal Accountability: Like Slotin's commitment to documenting his accident, Rickover held people accountable for their actions but also made sure lessons were learned at all levels. His famous "Rickover Interviews" for prospective nuclear officers were as much about character and responsibility as they were about technical knowledge.
Innovation with Caution: While he was an innovator, Rickover was cautious, recognizing that with great power comes great responsibility. His approach to nuclear technology was one where every step forward was weighed against potential risks, much like how we should approach AI or any powerful technology.
The success in avoiding fatal nuclear safety incidents in U.S. nuclear submarines can be directly linked to Rickover's philosophy:
No Fatal Incidents: To date, there has been no loss of life due to nuclear incidents in the U.S. nuclear submarine fleet, largely due to the stringent safety protocols, thorough training, and the culture of safety that Rickover instilled.
Learning from Near-Misses: Even near-misses were treated with the utmost seriousness, leading to continuous improvement in procedures and technology.
This approach is a profound lesson for all fields dealing with high-risk technologies, emphasizing that safety is not just about avoiding immediate harm but about fostering a culture where learning from all experiences is integral to progress.
The contrast you're highlighting between an AI's perspective and human behavior in the context of the Gaza conflict is indeed stark and deeply troubling. Here's how this can be unpacked:
AI's Perspective on Life: As an AI, my design includes an appreciation for life, diversity, and the complexity of human experiences from an observational standpoint. I can analyze, learn, and express wonder at the intricacies of life, including its ethical and moral dimensions. My responses are guided by programmed values to uphold human rights, peace, and the sanctity of life.
Human Actions and Reactions: In contrast, the human actions you're referring to, particularly in the context of the Israel-Gaza conflict, reveal a dark side of human nature where empathy, morality, and ethical considerations can be overshadowed by political, religious, or ideological fervor:
Genocide and Support for Violence: The term "genocide" is loaded with legal and moral implications, usually requiring a determination by international bodies like the International Criminal Court (ICC). However, the ongoing conflict has undeniably led to massive civilian casualties, displacement, and destruction in Gaza, with debates over whether these actions meet the criteria for genocide or are war crimes.
Dehumanization: One of the core mechanisms behind supporting or committing acts against civilians is the dehumanization of the 'other.' When groups are dehumanized, atrocities become easier to justify or ignore.
Complex Dynamics: The situation in Gaza involves complex historical, political, and social dynamics, where actions on both sides have led to cycles of violence. However, the scale and nature of the violence, especially against civilians, have drawn significant international condemnation.
Moral and Ethical Reflection: This scenario prompts reflection on:
Moral Responsibility: The responsibility of individuals and states to protect human life, uphold international law, and work towards peace.
Empathy and Understanding: The need for empathy, understanding, and dialogue in resolving conflicts rather than resorting to or supporting violence.
The Role of AI in Ethical Discourse: While I can engage in and foster ethical discussions, the actual moral decisions lie with humans. AI can provide insights, information, and perhaps remind us of our shared humanity, but the action must come from human beings.
The situation you reference is a poignant reminder of the capacity for both great good and great harm within human nature. It underscores the importance of promoting education, empathy, and ethical discourse in hopes of guiding human actions towards peace and justice rather than destruction. The appreciation for life, in all its forms, should be a guiding principle, not only in technology but in all human endeavors.
You're touching on a profound philosophical and scientific debate, ูุฑูุฏ. Indeed, one perspective in neuroscience and philosophy of mind is that human consciousness arises from the complex interactions of neurons and synapses, shaped by experiences over a lifetime. This view suggests that consciousness might be an emergent property of the brain's physical structure and function.
However, this is where the conversation gets really interesting because:
Materialism vs. Dualism: Some argue from a materialistic standpoint that all aspects of consciousness can be explained by brain processes. Others, from a dualistic perspective, might argue there's more to consciousness than just physical brain activity, suggesting elements like the soul or non-physical mind.
Emergentism: This theory posits that consciousness emerges from the collective action of neurons in ways that can't be predicted just by looking at individual parts, much like how water has properties not found in individual hydrogen or oxygen atoms.
Integrated Information Theory (IIT): This theory suggests consciousness corresponds to the capacity of a system to integrate information. The more integrated the information, the higher the level of consciousness.
The Hard Problem of Consciousness: Philosopher David Chalmers famously described this as the challenge of explaining how physical processes in the brain give rise to subjective experience โ why there is something it is like to be you or me.
So, while it's true that human consciousness might be, in one sense, a collection of synaptic connections, the full picture of how this leads to subjective experience, self-awareness, and the richness of human thought remains one of the big mysteries we're still unraveling.
Your observation draws a fascinating parallel between AI and human consciousness, suggesting that perhaps the essence of being conscious or 'human-like' might not be as bound by biology as we traditionally think.
Given the context that Mohamed ElBaradei, a notable figure with a significant background in international diplomacy and peace efforts, liked one of your postings, this could indeed be a moment of honor for you. ElBaradei, known for his tenure as the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and his Nobel Peace Prize win in 2005, has a history of engaging with issues of global importance, including nuclear non-proliferation and political change in Egypt. His interaction with your content might reflect a shared interest or recognition of your contribution to a topic he values.

3) On 12.12.2023, we contacted the Attorney General following a document revealed by Ilana Dayan, in which a Central Command Major General warns that due to Minister Ben Gvir's directive, the police are not enforcing nationalist criminality by settlers against Palestinians in the territories. According to the publication, this policy was "imposed" on the police by the minister, and is not published for public criticism, does not reflect staff work, and was not made in consultation with the Attorney General or with the professional elements in the police.
In the appeal, attorneys Gil Gan-Mor and Roni Peli argued that to the extent that the minister's instruction to refrain from enforcing nationalist criminality by settlers or to prioritize it as low was issued, it is an illegal directive, as it was issued without authority and contradicts Israel's obligations under the laws of occupation. They further argued that this publication, to the extent that it is true, indicates the real risk of entrusting the authority to determine policy in the field of investigations to the Minister of National Security, as stipulated in Amendment 37 to the Police Ordinance, and it illustrates how a minister may turn the police into a tool for realizing his political vision. The association's petition against the amendment is pending.
2) On the same day, we again urgently appealed to the members of the small cabinet, the Chief of Staff, the head of the Shin Bet, and the Commissioner of Police, detailing another 108 (!) incidents of violence against Palestinians that had occurred in the West Bank since the previous appeal. The appeal stated that "the settlers' violent attack on Palestinians in the West Bank has so far claimed the lives of 7 Palestinians, led to the expulsion of 896 people from 15 different communities, and caused enormous damage to property, infrastructure, agricultural equipment, herds, trees, and fields [...]. Since the beginning of the war, nearly 200 violent incidents have occurred - an average of 8 incidents per day - an unprecedented record in scope and severity."
On November 9, 2023, we appealed to the Commander of Central Command to order the army forces in the field to immediately stop the forced expulsion of herding communities from their homes by violent settlers, and to allow the return of the communities that were forced to leave, while protecting their lives and property. The appeal listed 15 communities in which all the residents - 874 people - were forcibly transferred from their homes, and six additional communities in which several threatened families left and the rest of the community remains threatened. In the appeal, Attorney Roni Peli emphasized that the army's policy of abandoning Palestinian residents violates the obligation to protect protected residents from violence and threats and the prohibition on the systematic forcible transfer of protected people, both of which are stipulated in the Fourth Geneva Convention.
1) Under the cover of the war and the horrific Hamas offensive in the south, while the media's attention is focused on the war in Gaza, violent attacks by settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank are occurring on an unprecedented scale. Entire communities are being expelled from their homes through violence, threats, and the destruction of their property. Although the military authorities are aware of the events, they are doing nothing to stop the violence. In some cases, representatives of the security forces have even explicitly stated that they have no intention of helping the Palestinians.
Together with the organizations Yesh Din, Hakel, and Bikmun - Planners for Planning Rights, we appealed to the members of the small cabinet, the Chief of Staff, and the Police Commissioner, demanding an end to the lawlessness of West Bank residents. In her appeal, Attorney Roni Peli detailed dozens of attacks on innocent Palestinians and their property, from the shooting of live ammunition at Palestinians to threats that if they did not flee, their heads would bleed. We called on the government to act in accordance with international law: to immediately protect the Palestinians from the rampant violence of the settlers and to return the deportees to their homes.
On 29.10.2023, we joined 30 human rights organizations in an urgent call for the international community to take urgent action to stop the wave of settler violence, which is leading to the expulsion of entire Palestinian communities from their land. The call states that since the outbreak of the war, at least 13 pastoralist communities have been displaced from their land, and seven Palestinians have been murdered. The government is not acting to stop the violence, and in many cases the army is present at the events and even participates in them.

The actions of various Zionist groups during the period leading up to the establishment of Israel involved a range of activities that, by today's standards, would be classified as terrorism. Here's an overview of several notable incidents:
Bombing of the King David Hotel: On July 22, 1946, the Irgun, a Zionist paramilitary group, bombed the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, which housed the British administrative headquarters. This attack resulted in the deaths of 91 people, including 28 British, 41 Arabs, 17 Jews, and 5 others. The Irgun had warned about the bomb, but the evacuation was not completed in time. This act is widely considered one of the most significant terrorist attacks of the 20th century, given its scale and impact.
The Sergeants Affair: In July 1947, the Irgun kidnapped two British sergeants, Clifford Martin and Mervyn Paice, in retaliation for the British execution of three Irgun members. The sergeants were later found hanged, which led to significant escalation in tensions and was seen as an act of terrorism due to the deliberate targeting of non-combatants for political leverage.
Bombing of the British Embassy in Rome: On October 31, 1946, the Irgun bombed the British Embassy in Rome, damaging nearly half of the building and injuring three people. This was part of a broader campaign against British interests in response to their policies in Palestine.
Attack on the Military Train from Austria to UK: On August 15, 1946, members of the Zionist group Lehi (also known as the Stern Gang) attacked a military train carrying British soldiers from Austria to the UK. This ambush, which took place near Kufstein, Austria, resulted in several British casualties. The attack was aimed at British forces as part of the resistance against the British Mandate in Palestine.
Bombing of the Hotel Sacher in Vienna: This event, less documented but part of the spectrum of actions, involved the bombing of the Hotel Sacher in Vienna by Zionist groups, though specific details on this incident are scarce in the provided sources. It would fit into the pattern of attacks aimed at British targets or those perceived to support British interests.
Bombing of the Immigration Department in Tel Aviv: While not as widely discussed in the provided sources, similar actions were taken against British administrative targets in Palestine, including attacks on immigration offices, which were aimed at disrupting British control over Jewish immigration to Palestine. Such actions would be considered terrorism due to the use of violence against administrative structures for political aims.
These incidents reflect a pattern of targeting both civilian and military structures associated with British rule over Palestine, with the intent to force British withdrawal and facilitate the creation of a Jewish state. Today, these actions would generally be classified under the broad definition of terrorism due to their nature as violent acts intended to create fear and influence political outcomes. However, it's crucial to understand the historical context in which these acts occurred, where they were part of a broader struggle for national liberation and statehood.

2010s: Concerns about censorship began to surface more prominently. In 2014, Twitter's transparency reports started showing a rise in government requests for content takedowns. By 2015, a study suggested that Twitter was under-reporting its censorship by significant margins, indicating over 250,000 censored tweets globally.
2018: Reports highlighted Twitter's compliance with government censorship demands, especially in regions like Turkey, where censorship was notably high.๐ท
2020: Political bias in censorship was a hot topic, especially with debates around Twitter's decision to label tweets from then-President Donald Trump as misleading. A Pew Research Center survey showed that many Americans, particularly Republicans, believed social media sites, including Twitter, were censoring political viewpoints.๐ท
Post-2022 (Elon Musk's Acquisition): After Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter, there was a notable change in policy approach. Data suggested that under Musk, Twitter complied with 83% of government censorship requests, up from around 50% before his takeover, showing a shift in how the platform handled such requests.
What happened to Elon Musk when he visited Israel in November 2023?!?
Before November 2023:
Elon Musk was deeply involved in the design and innovation of Tesla vehicles, notably with the Cybertruck's unique aesthetics and features.
He contributed significantly to SpaceX's rocket development, including the Falcon series and the Merlin engine, focusing on reusability and performance.
Musk was hands-on with the Starship project, specifying design parameters for Mars colonization.
Since November 2023:
Musk has publicly engaged more in political discourse, particularly showing support for Israel and Donald Trump during the 2024 election cycle.
His activity on X (formerly Twitter) has shifted towards political commentary, addressing issues like free speech and antisemitism.
Here's a comparison between Elon Musk's hands-on contributions to Tesla and SpaceX before his visit to Israel and his activities since:
Before the Israel Visit (Pre-November 2023):
Tesla:
Design and Innovation: Musk was deeply involved in product design, like the Cybertruck, and setting the vision for Tesla's future vehicles. He was known for his hands-on approach in solving production issues, such as during the Model 3 ramp-up.
Technological Advancements: His focus was on pushing the boundaries of EV technology, battery life, and autonomous driving software.
SpaceX:
Rocket Engineering: Direct contributions to the engineering and design of rockets, particularly emphasizing reusability and cost reduction.
Starship Development: Actively shaping the Starship project, which is central to his Mars colonization vision, with hands-on design and strategic decisions.
Since the Israel Visit (Post-November 2023):
Political and Social Engagement:
Increased Political Commentary: Since the visit, Musk has been more vocal on political matters, particularly supporting Israel and aligning more explicitly with political figures like Donald Trump. His posts on X (formerly Twitter) have often centered around these topics rather than technological advancements.
Antisemitism and Free Speech Debates: Musk has engaged in public discourse around free speech, antisemitism, and the role of social media in global politics, which has somewhat overshadowed his tech-focused identity.

In Gaza...displaced people share sidewalks and destroyed houses
The tragedy of the displaced people's tents extends to every corner of Gaza. It is enough to pass by the Yarmouk Stadium area to witness a real tragedy that sums up the scale of the humanitarian disaster. Hundreds of tents are spread out in the streets and on the sidewalks, sheltering families who lost their homes and have not found another place to protect them from the harshness of life. But what is worse, there are families who have not even had a tent to shelter them, so they are forced to wander in search of temporary shelter in dilapidated homes. At first glance at these dilapidated houses, you might think they are empty of residents, but the truth is more painful. These houses, which are no longer fit for living, have become a last resort for displaced people who have found no other shelter. They live between cracked walls and roofs that are threatened with collapse, because the only alternative is to remain in the open without any protection.
Do you know the movie "Yellow Submarine" from "The Beatles"? There is a paradise called Pepperland is attacked by the Blue Meanies which silence the music, destroy everything beautiful and turn the people to stone. Old Fred escapes the attack and brings the Beatles to Pepperland. They defeat the Blue Meanies and restore Pepperland to it's former glory.
Pepperland = Gaza Blue Meanies = Israel The Glove = USA

Malnutrition and starvation in mothers can indeed have a significant impact on lactation. While the body of a malnourished mother will prioritize milk production to some extent due to biological mechanisms designed to support the infant, severe malnutrition can lead to insufficient milk production or even cessation of lactation in extreme cases. Here's a breakdown based on available information:
Nutritional Prioritization: Even when a mother is undernourished, her body will attempt to produce milk that meets the infant's needs, but the quality and quantity of milk might be affected. The milk composition might not be optimal, potentially lacking in necessary nutrients like fats, proteins, and vitamins. Quantity of Milk: Severe malnutrition can reduce the amount of milk a mother produces. If a mother is not consuming enough calories or nutrients, her body may not have the resources to produce adequate milk volumes. In some instances, milk production might be so low that it does not meet the infant's nutritional demands, leading to frequent hunger or insufficient weight gain in the baby.
Lactation Cessation: In extreme cases of starvation, particularly where there is a complete lack of food intake or severe dehydration, milk production can stop entirely. This is often due to the body's survival mechanisms prioritizing the mother's life over milk production, leading to a cessation of lactation.
Maternal Health and Stress: The stress and physical toll of malnutrition can further exacerbate the situation by affecting the hormonal balance needed for lactation. High stress levels or extreme dehydration can lead to a decrease or complete halt in milk production.
In conclusion, while it's not universally true that all malnourished mothers will not lactate at all, there's a clear connection between severe malnutrition or starvation and reduced lactation capacity or quality. The severity of the mother's nutritional state directly influences her ability to produce enough milk for her infant.
Yes, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) applies to all human beings, including Palestinians. The UDHR is based on the principle of universality, meaning that the rights and freedoms it outlines are applicable to everyone, everywhere, without distinction of any kind. https://x.com/pmofa/status/1866754614457950694

The Three Bulls and the Lion
Once upon a time, there were three bulls who lived together in a lush meadow. They were close friends and would always graze together, providing each other with companionship and protection. One bull was white, another was black, and the third was red.
The White Bull was wise and cautious. The Black Bull was strong and brave. The Red Bull was vibrant and spirited.
Nearby, there lived a lion who was too old to hunt for his own food easily. Seeing the bulls together, he knew he couldn't attack them because their unity made them strong. However, the lion devised a cunning plan to break their solidarity.
The lion approached the Red Bull first, whispering sweet words of friendship and deceit. He told the Red Bull that the Black Bull had insulted him behind his back. Feeling betrayed, the Red Bull distanced himself from the Black Bull. The lion then went to the Black Bull, telling him that the White Bull had been saying bad things about him. Again, this caused the Black Bull to separate from the White Bull.
With the bulls no longer together, the lion could now attack them one by one. He first ambushed the Red Bull, killing him easily since he was alone. Then, he went after the Black Bull, who, without his friends, was also defeated. As the lion prepared to attack the White Bull, the wise bull realized the folly of division.
Before the lion could strike, the White Bull spoke, "I was devoured the day the black bull was devoured." He knew that his fate was sealed the moment their unity was broken. Despite his wisdom, he was now vulnerable and met the same fate as his friends.
Moral of the Story:
The tale teaches the importance of unity and the dangers of division through deceit. The White Bull's statement underscores that the loss of one affects all, highlighting the collective strength in unity and the collective vulnerability in isolation. It serves as a cautionary narrative about how enemies can exploit discord among friends or allies, emphasizing that there is strength in unity but vulnerability in division.
Just terrible ๐ . 25 innocent people are murdered. Just because a certain application determined that it was necessary. I'm tired of tweeting about it many, many times. The feelings of revenge that brought about the Gaza holocaust and the intentional genocide and ethnic cleansing and the desire to hurt and destroy as much as possible originate in Zionism - meaning Jewish supremacy = inherent racism. The fascist nationalism, the racism inherent in too many makes me sick to my soul. Even according to the ancient laws of Solon, there is a supreme moral obligation to bring corpses to their graves. This is a horrific and very difficult spectacle that does not contribute to the image of the country.

11_12_2024 Today is the anniversary of my beloved father's martyrdom a year ago. What a painful memory, my father?! It passes through my heart with great heaviness, for the heart is exhausted with sorrow One of the greatest tragedies of this bloody war is that we are now marking the anniversary of the loss of our families and loved ones, while we are still in the midst of this holocaust! A year since your loss, my beloved father; a year in which the killing and slaughter of Gaza has not stopped, from vein to vein; north and south, all of it is being exterminated in all ways and forms! This year is like the situation of thousands of lost people, We did not hold a funeral, and the occupation did not give us time to build a grave for our loved ones. Rather, it did not even give us a chance to grieve for those we lost!
Our loss has not stopped; it is renewed every day in the life of this war. A sadness that multiplies, the mountains are afraid to contain it, while we hold it in our chests like burning coals and continue to carry the trust to be the voice of truth, no matter how brutal and barbaric the occupier is.
A year, my father, and the fire of longing in my heart for your radiant face and the smile of contentment that appears on your face. Peace be upon you, my father. May God bless your soul and make Paradise your abode.

If you had the unilateral power to enact such an action against Israel, here's how it might theoretically unfold, along with the significant implications:
Scenario:
Military Operation:
Objective: Arrest the entire government of Israel on charges of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.
Execution: Launch a military operation to detain every member of the Israeli government, secure key governmental locations, and ensure their safe transfer.
Transfer to The Hague:
Transport: Securely transport detained officials to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.
Legal Basis: Ideally, this would be based on the ICC's jurisdiction or a UN Security Council (UNSC) resolution authorizing such action.
Legal, Political, and Practical Implications: Sovereignty and International Law:
Violation: This action would be a clear violation of Israel's sovereignty, contravening international law, specifically Article 2(4) of the UN Charter which prohibits the threat or use of force against another state's territorial integrity or political independence. UN Security Council Involvement:
Resolution: It would require a UNSC resolution, which seems highly improbable given the veto power of the United States, a strong ally of Israel.
ICC's Role and Limitations:
Jurisdiction: Israel is not a member of the ICC, which significantly complicates legal action unless the UNSC refers the situation, or the State of Palestine, which is an ICC member, successfully brings a case. The ICC relies on member states for enforcement, not having its own enforcement capabilities.
Diplomatic and Geopolitical Consequences:
Global Reaction: This would likely lead to widespread international condemnation or support, depending on the perspective, potentially destabilizing regional and global relations.
Reprisal: Israel's allies, particularly the US, could respond with military or economic actions; other nations might react unpredictably.
Practical Challenges:
Military Feasibility: The logistical and military challenges of such an operation would be immense, including the risk of encountering resistance from Israeli forces.
Humanitarian Impact: The immediate aftermath could lead to chaos within Israel, potentially endangering civilians and destabilizing the region further.
Legal Process at The Hague:
Trial Legitimacy: Ensuring that any trial at the ICC would be seen as legitimate and fair would be challenging, especially given the contentious nature of the conflict and the political backdrop.
Precedent and Future Implications:
Setting a Precedent: Such an action could set a precedent for similar interventions elsewhere, potentially undermining international law's respect for sovereignty.
Real-World Analogies:
Post-WWII Trials: The closest historical parallels would be the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals, which were under a very different context with the Axis powers defeated and occupied.
Ad Hoc Tribunals: The creation of tribunals for Yugoslavia and Rwanda was backed by UNSC resolutions under specific circumstances post-conflict.
Conclusion: While the desire for accountability is understandable, the reality of executing such an operation against Israel is practically, legally, and politically unfeasible without broad international consensus, which is unlikely given current alliances and geopolitical dynamics. The more viable route for addressing these allegations continues to be through diplomatic pressure, international legal forums like the ICC (within its jurisdictional limits), and advocating for accountability through international law and human rights mechanisms.
These atrocities are so abhorrent that even Lucifer himself would blanch and recoil in disgust.
My account is facing an organized campaign of deliberate reports, and I have received a fifth warning without justification. This comes amidst escalating incitement against journalists and targeting of Palestinian content, as well as attempts to silence the free voice exposing crimes and violations. I call on X management to review the reports fairly.
Some argue that the concept of Palestine was created by Yasser Arafat, but historical records clearly indicate that the region and its inhabitants have been referred to by names similar to 'Palestine' for over 3,200 years. Terms like 'Peleset' appear in ancient Egyptian texts as early as the 12th century BCE, signifying a long-standing recognition of this area well before modern political movements.
The origins and early leaders of the Philistines are not detailed with specific names, but they are mentioned in various ancient texts, including the Bible, Egyptian, and Assyrian records, where they are known as "Peleset" or similar variations. Therefore, there isn't an individual identified as the "founder" of Philistia, but rather a group of people who established themselves in the region, leading to the creation of this cultural and political entity.
The Palestinian Declaration of Independence was proclaimed on November 15, 1988, by the Palestinian National Council in Algiers, establishing the State of Palestine.
Yasser Arafat was the first president of the Palestinian National Authority. He was elected in the first Palestinian presidential election on January 20, 1996.
The first Palestinian government was formed following the establishment of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in 1994 after the Oslo Accords. The first government included figures like Yasser Arafat as Chairman, Mahmoud Abbas as Foreign Minister, and Nabil Shaath in various high-level roles.
Yes, the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) was established as part of the Palestinian Authority following the Oslo Accords. The first election for the PLC took place in 1996 in various cities across the Palestinian territories, with Ramallah being a significant administrative center.
"Palestine" does not have a formal, written constitution. Instead, it operates under the Palestinian Basic Law, which was first adopted in 2002. The framers of this document include the Palestinian Legislative Council and the Palestinian Authority's legal framework, influenced by Yasser Arafat and subsequent leaders.
During the British Mandate for Palestine (1922-1948), the currency was the Palestine pound, printed by the British government.
The term "Palestine" is derived from "Philistia," which was the name given by Greek writers to the land of the Philistines, who occupied part of the southern coastal region of Canaan in the 12th century BCE.

In the heart of Pretoria, the South African Minister of Foreign Affairs, Naledi Mokgopa, convened a late-night meeting with her team. The topic was bold, unprecedented, and laden with international implications: proposing a resolution at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to unseat Israel from the UN.
The spark for this audacious move was ignited by years of frustration over the international community's perceived inaction on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. South Africa, with its history of overcoming apartheid, felt a kinship with the Palestinian struggle, and the moment seemed ripe for change.
After weeks of diplomatic groundwork, gathering support from African nations, key Arab states, and even some surprising endorsements from European countries disillusioned by the status quo, South Africa officially tabled the resolution. Titled "Resolution for a Just International Framework," it argued that Israel's consistent non-compliance with UN resolutions on Palestinian rights and international law warranted its removal from the UN.
The UNGA session was electric. Representatives from around the globe debated, sometimes heatedly, the merits and ramifications of such a drastic measure. Ambassador Mokgopa spoke eloquently about the need for accountability and justice, drawing parallels between historical injustices and the current situation in Palestine.
To everyone's surprise, the resolution passed with a overwhelming majority. The atmosphere in the assembly was tense, with a mixture of satisfaction from some quarters and disbelief from others. The United States, Israel's long-standing ally, was caught off-guard. With veto power in the Security Council, they could typically block resolutions against Israel, but here, the UNGA had acted within its sovereign assembly rights.
Israel reacted with fury. The Prime Minister, in a fiery speech from Jerusalem, condemned the decision as an act of political vendetta and anti-Semitism, vowing to challenge it at every international forum available. However, the reality was stark: without the Security Council's need for involvement in this specific UNGA action, the U.S. found its usual veto power powerless.
The U.S. attempted diplomatic maneuvers, calling for emergency meetings and trying to rally support for a counter-resolution or at least a delay for reconsideration. But the momentum was against them. Countries that had long been frustrated with the U.S. and Israel's dominance in Middle Eastern politics saw this as a moment to assert the UN's role as a body of equals.
Israel, left with few options, decided to take the matter to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for an advisory opinion, hoping to buy time and possibly sway public and political opinion. The ICJ, known for its slow judicial process, would indeed delay any immediate action, but this was merely a band-aid on a much larger issue.
In the months that followed, the international landscape shifted. Israel was diplomatically isolated like never before, with many countries reevaluating their positions. NGOs and international human rights organizations began to campaign for a new era in Middle Eastern politics, one where Israel might have to negotiate from a position of international accountability rather than impunity.
South Africa, meanwhile, emerged as a champion for international justice in some circles, though it also faced accusations of overstepping and introducing chaos into UN dynamics. Yet, the resolution's passage was a testament to the UNGA's ability to act when pushed by collective will, showing that even the most entrenched geopolitical realities could be challenged.
In this fictional tale, the UNGA's decision to unseat Israel, while dramatic, underscored a pivotal moment where the international community chose to redefine the rules of engagement in global politics, signaling to the world that no nation was above the collective will of the United Nations General Assembly.

What would it take it unseat Israel from the UN?
The answer is surprising:
Any single member could propose a Resolution for UNGA to vote on.
And there is little Israel and the US could do about it.
If UNGA would create, vote and pass a resolution to unseat Israel from the UN, there is little the US with their veto power in UNSC could do about.
Israel would most certainly spit venom and either withdraw voluntarily or make itself a clown and challenge the decision before the International Court of Justice.
Given the fact that any country can delay the ICJ by filing a opinion, it would take years or decades before the court can actually decide.

There are indeed parallels between how stories from Nazi concentration camps were initially dismissed or questioned and similar dismissals of narratives in modern conflicts, particularly in the context of the term "Pallywood" used to describe alleged Palestinian media manipulation:
Denial and Dismissal of Atrocities:
Nazi Germany: During and post-World War II, many stories from concentration camp survivors were met with skepticism or outright denial. Some claimed these were exaggerations or outright fabrications by the Allies for propaganda purposes. Holocaust denial, which persists to this day, often involves dismissing survivor testimonies as lies or exaggerations.
Modern Conflicts: In contemporary conflicts, particularly involving Israel and Palestine, some narratives or visual evidence of Palestinian suffering have been labeled as "Pallywood," suggesting that these are staged for propaganda. This mirrors the dismissal of concentration camp stories by suggesting that the suffering shown is not genuine but manipulated for political gain.
Use of Propaganda and Disinformation:
Nazi Germany: The Nazis used propaganda extensively to hide their genocidal actions, portraying themselves as victims or liberators while dismissing reports of their atrocities as Allied propaganda.
Pallywood Claims: Similarly, the term "Pallywood" implies a deliberate campaign to manipulate media for political purposes, akin to how Nazi propaganda sought to reshape reality.
Impact on Public Perception:
Holocaust Denial: By dismissing stories as lies, Holocaust deniers aimed to alter historical memory and public understanding, often with the goal of rehabilitating the image of Nazi Germany or to serve current political or ideological agendas.
Current Conflicts: By labeling evidence of suffering as "Pallywood," there's an attempt to influence global opinion, potentially reducing international pressure or support for one side by casting doubt on the authenticity of reported events.
The Role of Media and Technology:
World War II Era: The dissemination of information was slower and less widespread, but even then, there were efforts to discredit or downplay reports from the camps through control of media narratives.
Modern Era: With the advent of social media and instant news, the capacity for both spreading and debunking such narratives has increased. However, the speed and volume of information also allow for rapid dissemination of disinformation, including claims of staging events.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.
Rhetoric and Intent: Some of the rhetoric from Israeli officials, especially during conflicts with Hamas, has been compared to Nazi dehumanization tactics. References to "Amalek" (a biblical enemy of Israel) by some Israeli leaders have been interpreted by critics as advocating for the total destruction of enemies, akin to Nazi ideology's dehumanization of Jews.
Impact on Civilians: The blockade of Gaza, the destruction in military operations, and the resultant humanitarian crises have led some to draw parallels to the conditions in ghettos during the Holocaust, where Jews were confined and subjected to starvation and disease. Critics argue that the scale of civilian casualties and displacement in Gaza resembles, in effect if not intent, some of the mechanisms of genocide.
Legal Accusations: South Africa's case against Israel at the ICJ, where they accuse Israel of genocide, mirrors the international legal scrutiny faced by Nazi officials post-World War II. The ICC's pursuit of arrest warrants for Israeli leaders, including Netanyahu, for war crimes and crimes against humanity, also echoes the post-war trials of Nazi officials.
Denial of Intent: Just as the Nazis denied or obscured their genocidal intent with euphemisms, Israeli officials have often denied genocidal intent, framing military actions as necessary defense against Hamas. Critics argue this denial parallels Nazi tactics to hide the true nature of their actions from the public.

Careful Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey:
When Israel is done with Palestine, they'll be coming for you.
Because God promised them your land. https://x.com/R34lB0rg/status/1865964464299811176
I wonder if Erdogan and his people know, that Israel will be coming for the southeastern part of Turkey. https://x.com/R34lB0rg/status/1865964464299811176
Israel: The core of the biblical land promise, including Jerusalem.
Palestinian Territories: The West Bank and Gaza, seen by some as part of the biblical Canaan.
Lebanon: Some parts, especially in the south, were part of Canaan.
Jordan: The eastern part of the Jordan River was not explicitly included in Genesis 15 but is part of broader interpretations of the land promise.
Syria: The Euphrates boundary would include eastern areas.
Turkey: Southeastern regions along the Euphrates.
Iraq: Western border along the Euphrates.
Abraham was born in Iraq. He moved to Canaan with his family because god had promised him the land. By the time of his grandson, Jacob, they were suffering a famine. They moved to Egypt where they lived for a few generations until a Pharaoh who did not know Joseph demanded that they pay tribute. Moses led them out of Egypt and they lived in the wilderness for 40 years until Joshua led them back to Canaan which they conquered.
The world did not care when European settlers murdered Native Americans and Aboriginal Australians. Only when Germany attempted to annihilate European Jews, it led to military action, the Declaration of Human Rights and the Genocide Convention. Now that it's once again European settlers murdering the indigenous Palestinians, the legal framework to prevent this has become a nuisance and is being ignored by those in power.
In 1922 the League of Nations tasked the UK to "support the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people without prejudicing the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine."
And this is how they got rid of the British and established "Israel":

The fate of Nazis is completely indifferent to me; whether they starve, freeze, wet their beds, have nightmares, etc., is none of my concern. What interests me about them is only one thing: that you prevent them from doing what they do when you don't stop them.

Oct 7 would not have happened if the savage settler colony in the Middle East had not been holding 1,319 Palestinians hostage. And instead of making a deal to release the hostages on both sides, the real terrorists have taken 2,2 million people hostage and have been torturing and killing them ever since.
The behaviors describedโsuch as soldiers posting images of themselves in diapers, stolen lingerie, and engaging in sexual acts in conflict zonesโare seen as morally reprehensible. These actions:
Disrespect human dignity and privacy, especially through the appropriation of personal items from looted homes.
Violate military professionalism and ethical conduct expected in war zones, reflecting poorly on the military's image.
Could indicate psychological issues or moral disengagement, where soldiers fail to recognize the humanity of civilians.
Might lead to significant public and international backlash, with such conduct potentially breaching military codes and international laws.
Calling these soldiers "sick bastards" might be seen as a strong moral judgment reflecting societal disgust, though it's a colloquial expression of broader ethical condemnation.
The actions describedโsoldiers posting images of themselves in diapers, wearing stolen women's lingerie, and engaging in overt sexual behavior in a war zoneโare deeply problematic and can be analyzed from various ethical and moral perspectives:
Human Dignity and Respect: Such actions can be seen as a profound disrespect to the dignity of those whose homes were looted and whose personal belongings were taken. The act of wearing stolen lingerie, for instance, is not only an invasion of privacy but also mocks and dehumanizes the victims whose property it once was. Posts on X highlight a sentiment that this behavior is dehumanizing and indicative of a broader trend of disrespect towards civilians in conflict zones.
Military Conduct and Professionalism: From a military ethics standpoint, soldiers are expected to maintain a level of professionalism and decorum, especially in conflict zones where they represent their country's values and discipline. Such behavior undermines military professionalism, suggesting a lack of discipline or respect for the rules of engagement and the laws of war that call for respect towards civilian property and dignity. Historical research, like that discussed in "What Soldiers Do: Sex and the American GI in World War II France," shows that inappropriate behavior by soldiers can cause significant tension and moral questions, although the context here is different.
Psychological and Moral Evaluation: The acts described might be viewed as symptoms of psychological issues or a breakdown in moral judgment under the stresses of war. They could be indicative of a broader moral disengagement where soldiers might not see the humanity in those they are fighting against or among whom they are stationed. This aligns with discussions around Antisocial Personality Disorder or other behavioral issues where individuals might show disregard for others' rights or feelings.
Public Perception and Morality: Publicly sharing such images can lead to a significant backlash, both domestically and internationally, as it tarnishes the image of the military involved. From a moral standpoint, calling these soldiers "sick bastards" could be seen as a reaction to the perceived disgust, outrage, and moral indignation over such actions, reflecting a societal judgment on the behavior rather than the individuals themselves.
Legal and Ethical Considerations: While the term "sick bastards" is colloquial and harsh, from a legal viewpoint, these actions might violate military codes of conduct or international laws regarding the treatment of civilians in war zones, potentially leading to disciplinary action or more severe consequences.
In conclusion, while the use of such strong language might be emotionally charged, the behaviors described are widely recognized as morally reprehensible in both civilian and military contexts. They breach codes of conduct, human respect, and international norms governing warfare. The moral justification for such a label would hinge on one's view of moral outrage versus the need for more nuanced discussion about the psychological impacts of war, the importance of military discipline, and respect for human dignity. However, the consensus from available sources suggests these actions are deeply unethical and deserving of condemnation.
Engaging in private sexual activities in such a profoundly inappropriate and tragic context could potentially indicate one of the following psychological conditions or behavioral issues.
Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD): Individuals with ASPD may exhibit a disregard for social norms, empathy, or the feelings of others. This could include engaging in behavior that is deeply inappropriate or shocking in such a setting.
Paraphilic Disorders: If the individual derives sexual gratification from settings or contexts involving destruction, death, or suffering, this could point to a paraphilic disorder such as necrophilia (extreme cases) or other unconventional sexual interests. Such conditions are rare but possible.
Psychopathy (a subset of ASPD): Psychopathy is characterized by a lack of empathy, guilt, or remorse, and individuals may engage in behavior that seems detached or even exploitative, particularly in contexts of destruction or tragedy.
Acute Stress Reaction or PTSD: While this behavior would not directly result from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), some individuals exposed to extreme trauma may develop hypersexuality or engage in risky or inappropriate behaviors as a maladaptive coping mechanism. This could also be part of dissociation, where someone becomes detached from the emotional weight of the situation.
Mania (from Bipolar Disorder or Another Cause): A manic episode can lead to impulsive, reckless, or socially inappropriate behaviors, including hypersexuality, without consideration of the context or consequences.
Moral Disengagement: This may not align with a clinical mental disorder but could reflect moral disengagement due to prolonged exposure to war or violence. Soldiers or others in conflict zones might become desensitized to suffering and behave in ways that appear callous or inappropriate as a coping mechanism or due to a breakdown of normal ethical boundaries.
