Also, it bears mentioning that this would place minors at the hands of the “Jewish Power”-controlled National Security ministry, an extremist kahanist group headed by a convicted terrorist-supporter, and of whose many members belonged formerly to a banned terrorist and racist group.

I think this law is about “convicted” kids, as opposed to “just” administrative detention.

Also in the article, they passed a law for deporting family members of “terrorists”. And this includes Israeli Arabs, supposedly “full citizens” of the totally not-apartheid “only democracy”.

Let them doxx themselves and support the Hind Rajab Foundation which is trying to get individual legal proceedings on them, especially the dual citizens: https://www.hindrajabfoundation.org/

The German wikipedia can make its own editorial decisions. They also don’t have a Rohingya genocide article, only an article about the Rohingya genocide case at the ICJ. The English Wikipedia has two articles. It would seem the crux of the matter is that the Germans treat the word genocide as a purely legal term and therefore wait for the ICJ decision, whereas the English treat the word as a topic on which a scholarly academic consensus can be pronounced, in addition to the legal proceedings. One can argue back and forth about which approach has more or less merit, but they are both valid.

Edit: grammar

Thoughts and prayers.

Deep respect.

Bresheeth was released without charge on 2 November, after spending a night in custody, but remains under investigation.

What the fuck does that mean? I didn’t know the UK laws were so authoritarian. So what, we arrest you for making a speech, detain you for a night, and then let you go without charge? And no repercussions for the inconvenience?

And how does “remains under investigation” not constitute intimidation?

Yes, and changing the culture of a country is a political program.

Here is the difference: babies are not born into a political program, they are born into a culture. You don’t grow up into a political program, you grow up into a culture.

Political programs are typically rooted in some culture and sometimes, a political program can become a culture, but a culture is not in itself intimately linked with a political program. In the same culture you can have multiple competing political programs in fact.

Yeah, all of that, that was the party program of the NSDAP, a political party.

A small amount of inflation is good actually.

Frankly, I think this is new territory. We have a new kind of phenomenon: stochastic terrorism, that has specifically as a vehicle the virality of social media. I don’t think old absolutes, like the American First Amendment, are useful, sort of like how your Second Amendment was written at a time of muskets, not assault weapons. Social media virality plus algorithms that prioritize engagement at all costs (including via rage) over accuracy are a new thing, causing a new problem. It’s right for courts, legal scholars, and lawmakers to be taking on this problem.

Your concern over balancing the different social goods is of course legitimate and at the centre of this debate.

You’re conflating a political ideology with a culture.

I think the king is being a lightning rod in this case, not sure what a ceremonial rich dude could have done.

That said, this should be a red alert warning to the entirety of Europe. It happened in Austria last month, in Greece last year and it’s going to keep happening. We can’t keep doing business as usual, the climate crisis is here.

Now the Israeli centre-left is the enemy. Fascism is a death cult. If left unchecked, this will go on until they self destruct.

I don’t know what that means. European countries have multiple cultures in them.

That said, your catchphrase is typically used to imply that Islam is incompatible with Europe. But there exist several countries in geographical Europe with Islam as an established religion. Greece has an official Muslim minority. Bosnia, Albania can be classified as plurality-muslim countries. European Turkey, west of the Bosphorus has more people than many European countries. And there are sizeable non-immigrant Muslim communities all over eastern and southeastern Europe. Islam has been part of the European story for a millennium. So I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Islam is as European as apple pie is American.

That assumes a country has a single culture.

Good. There is no pride in genocide.

Well, there’s probably not going to be a Beirut Pride again this year.

This sounds very unconstitutional? It does say “everyone” so the principle of equality under the law should apply. Right???

EDIT, aw fuck:

Non-Swedish citizens and non-Swedish legal persons Art. 3. For those who are not Swedish citizens or Swedish legal persons, special restrictions may be laid down in law in respect of freedom of expression under this Fundamental Law.

Well that sounds horrible. Sweden, do better.
