“Fallout from war” is one of those safe terms the media uses to pretend that the West isn’t deliberately responsible for the starvation of over half a million civilians.

I don’t know why this is controversial. It’s really simple: If every time someone mentions Islam or an Islamic culture in a positive light and you immediately ask them: But do you condemn Hamas?? You are Islamaphobic. Stop conflating all of Islam with Hamas. It’s racist.

We don't think hard enough about what bombs are and what they do. If I told you that ten thousand people had just been murdered by terrorists in Portland, Oregon — including thousands of children — you would understandably be shocked and horrified. If I told you that they’d all…
This is also my experience. I have led American groups into Palestinian Territories and they are always stunned by what they witness. No one is ever the same. It’s beyond awful, what these people live with every day.

This is so sad. Palestinian Christians are suffering tremendous tragedy. Much of the world is unaware of the diversity in Palestine. I have been blessed to work with Palestinian Christians when guiding and researching Christian sites. Beautiful people who deserve peace.

Beautiful story. I wonder if this woman grasps just how many people live with her husband’s iconic voice in their heads until the end of time?! Mind the Gap!

@grenadine If you’re interested you can reach out to the mosque and ask if they have a program for visitors. Most do. Feel free to get a look inside and meet your Muslim neighbors.
Bari Weiss led the charge to fire David Miller because "he makes Zionists feel unsafe on campus." And it worked. They actually got him fired. But Shai Davidai, literally demanding the FBI mass arrest and kill students he calls "terrorists", is their hero x.com/zei_squirrel/s…
Bari Weiss, who murdered Refaat Alareer by putting a kill target on him in an active genocide zone, made herself very rich pretending to love free speech as she kept demanding the firing of anyone critical of Israel like David Miller. He just won his court case against his firing

@KlasfeldReports Devastating story really…bargaining with the devil, in hindsight sight. Caught up in Trump/Pecker dragnet of “catch & kill”…beyond sleazy…it’s about darkest corruption & power…to lie & cheat to win the 2016 presidential election. Let’s hear all of it.
According to the prosecution's opening statement: On election night 2016, as Trump edged closer to being declared the victor, Stormy Daniels' then-attorney Keith Davidson sent this text message to National Enquirer editor in chief Dylan Howard: "What have we done?"
SIR GAWAIN AND THE GREEN KNIGHT. The most fun you can have in the fourteenth century, this story about a knight who must travel across country to face his own death at the hands of a green man is full of rain, horror and jollity.
THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS, by Lewis Carroll. My favorite book as a child. Carroll somehow manages to improve on the first ALICE, creating something that is richer, stranger and more melancholy. The Beatles as we know them wouldn’t exist without this book.
CATCH-22, by Joseph Heller. Yossarian, a U. S. Army captain, is the only sane person in the 256th Squadron. A darkly satirical novel that plays with chronology, this is not only the finest novel about World War II but possibly the funniest novel ever written—and the saddest.
THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, by Oscar Wilde. Bohemian dandy Dorian makes a Faustian bargain—he will remain forever young while his portrait grows older and more wicked. Decadent and surreal, Wilde’s only novel has the air of a dream that slowly becomes a nightmare.
THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO, by Alexander Dumas. When Edmond Dantes acquires a fortune, he changes his name and plots revenge on the men who imprisoned him. Quite simply the greatest adventure novel ever written, and a massive influence on the comic-book genre.

@ArchaeologyGame This is an oversimplification. The hypothesis is that many cultures have mythical stories of civilizations that existed in their own distant past. To take these myths seriously as the starting point for a hypothesis isn’t unreasonable.
@ArchaeologyGame Is the argument that they are hiding evidence? It seems more like the accusation is they are dismissing a hypothesis that may not have evidence from material remains yet. Why keep it off the table?

But instead of taking sculpture in new direction, Bernini took it to entirely new heights. Through sheer pious devotion, he did things with marble that even Michelangelo couldn't...
He also played a part in Rome's architectural restoration. In later life he turned to architecture, designing the colonnade of St. Peter's Square.
With these dramatic new art forms, the Catholic Church rebuilt Rome's reputation as the holy city. Bernini's sculptures were central to this lavish vision, both in humble squares and the greatest churches.
