Hey, out of curiosity, why are we calling this a "foothold" instead of an illegal invasion, annexation and occupation? We're still doing journalism, right? And "foothold" makes it sound like Israel is just a scrappy little tyke trying to make its way in the world like a big boy?

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does. Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision. We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore. This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

If the US attacks Greenland (a NATO ally) then Australia needs to rapidly act. Assess the threat posed by the many US military assets in Australia and design a strategy to remove them as rapidly as possible. No one can seriously pretend they make us safe anymore.

Hedges wasn’t there to debate what to him, and to those who have followed his reporting, was obvious. Marr seemed captured by the forum, rather than the substance. Hedges aptly made his case, but he shouldn’t have had to. www.deepcutnews.com/p/australian...

Some guy on Twitter made a point of announcing that thousands upon thousands of men are descended from rapists, and we women "aren't going to like it when [they] stop asking nicely." Which, you know, surprise surprise brother, but you're also not going to like it when we stop refusing nicely.
The painting titled Judith Beheading Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi. The painting portrays the moment that Judith beheads Holofernes, mid act of sawing his head off with a sword.  Judith grasps his hair as he lies face up on his bed and cuts the sword across to behead him while blood spurts out of his neck. Another woman helps hold him down as he attempts to resist.
