And even non-coastal real estate will face high insurance premiums due to increasing hurricane risk.

It's ironic here in the Netherlands how different the police and public reactions are to disruptive protests by Farmers vs. protests against climate and genocide.

But to be fair to our police, they did protect anti-racism protesters against far-right radicals. Compared to other countries, I think our police force is relatively OK.

They know this and encourage it.

Every time the Palestinians kill an Israeli, that gives them permission from the Americans to kill a thousand Palestinians.

And that's their plan to take all the land. Offer up a few thousand Israeli lives to genocide a few million Palestinians.

I really want to hear more about Cori Bush's plan to take down AIPAC.

It's time to do it.

I totally agree.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, they were handed everything they wanted on a silver plate.

They could have been Poland on steroids.

But they chose to reject it, so stupid.

No, he joined the national guard first.

They paid for his college education to become a teacher.

But Kamala really shut down those protesters!

Can't we focus on Kamala instead of the gcide?

(Disclaimer: I do support Kamala. Lesser of two evils and all. But I hope Americans grow a conscience.)

The ICJ ruling will take years though.

I think the most similar genocide to the Gaza genocide is the Bosnian genocide. The Srebrenica massacre took place in 1995 and the ICJ ruled in 2007.

So, the Gaza genocide might take until 2035 before it is all legally settled.

In the interim, Wikipedia and all of us need to decide what to call it.

Since it looks like a genocide and the initial findings support the case that genocide is likely being committed, it seems to border on genocide denial to call it anything else.

Edit to add: I also don't see people complaining about Wikipedia calling the Rohingya genocide a genocide, even though it is legally in the same phase as the Gaza genocide.

He should have said almost every.

But thanks for pointing out the mathematical truth ☝️

Yeah, the smell is obnoxious. I'm not surprised at all. Seems like a "water is wet" finding.

Because he shows what our parents could be like.

He's the parent we wish we had.

Damn, then it's even worse than I thought.
