I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

This is painful, and saddening, and embarrassing. I feel like we're losing a member of the family - and for no good reason other than that some Americans wanted another season of the worst reality TV show in history.

This was an excellent documentary. It should not matter that the narrator is the son of the Minister for Agriculture. It only matters to Israel because it shows them the mirror. Israel needs to get out of foreign newsrooms. #Gaza #BBC #FreePalestine

The gas is used to power the LNG export terminals in the process of turning it into Liquified Natural Gas for export. This use of gas by the terminals themselves is greater than all of the gas used in our gas power plants combined – and represents about 3x TOTAL Australian household consumption.

Earlier I shared a link to a Sky News (UK) report on the sadistic torture, violation and death of Dr Bursh by the Israel Military. The Western media bias hides, downplays and accepts Israel’s claims as fact without evidence. Often not even mentioning the perpetrator is Israel. #FreePalestine #gaza
