This is how the Israeli government operates against its neighbours in their pursuit of expansion to a 'Greater Israel'. No respect for human beings, no respect for territorial borders. This is why they must be stopped.

Having been at a 100 km race on Sunday with my wonderful Arabian horse, Javannah - yet managing only to complete 36 km since Javannah stepped wrong & twisted a fetlock joint, the next few days will necessarily here be all about her care with no possibility for other wished-for travels.

So once again Netanyahu facing legal repercussions for his criminal actions is what gives him personal impetus to breaking any ceasefire deal achieved between the US-Iran. Netanyahu needs forever war to make sure he stays in power - and stays out of prison. Where he belongs!

More and more Jews worldwide are breaking bondage-like loyalty to Israeli government & its ethnic cleansing of Palestine & belligerence towards Lebanon, Iran & other neighbouring countries. This opens for much improved multicultural relations around the world - excluding current genocidal Israel.

Strange how belief in fundamental privacy rights appears old fashioned nowadays. Privacy, discretion, the option for differentiation between private & public realms are essential for individual freedoms of choice which means freedom for everyone. Let's bring privacy back! Let's celebrate privacy!

I don't have too much sympathy for Anthropic since they stole all creative writing they could (including one of my books) to build their AI with a settlement of pennies. Still there seems to be an eerie pyramid net of 'bigger powers=bigger evil' in AI/surveillance that we must all battle against.
