The Israeli political consensus is that it is essential for the State of Israel to continue to deny self-government or self-determination to 33% of its population indefinitely, and virtually no mainstream American analysis will even engage with this.

I say this self deprecatingly because I fall into errors like it over and over again, but there's absolutely no basis in this sense that oil industry people will have taken the time to familiarize themselves with how the blockade actually works. no they hire consultants who are totally clueless

I am in Cap Haitien interviewing people deported from the United States. I have been doing this kind of work for almost a decade and it literally does not get more dire than this. People have lost everything they built in the U.S. and are terrified and have no place to go or way to live.

This is even more insane than I remembered.

Don't think this is accurate. There's a huge audience for this sort of semi-overt Hindu supremacist pablum right at home in India. The white people appeal was a happy (?) side effect, but the underlying psychological nudges are already evident in the Baahubali movies.

After new polling shows Democrats in all six of the first 2028 primary states overwhelmingly in support of sanctioning & cutting weapons to Israel, Hakeem Jeffries elevates one of the most pro-Israel Democrats in Congress to lead the Middle East and North Africa Subcommittee:
Moskowitz personal account tweet:

Thank you to 
@RepJeffries
 and 
@RepGregoryMeeks
 for this important responsibility to help lead Democrats policy in the Middle East and North Africa on the Foreign Affairs Committee.

Quoting of his official House account:
I’m honored to be named Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Middle East and North Africa.

At a moment of enormous change across the region, I’ll work to strengthen America’s relationships with Israel and our Gulf allies, expand regional peace, advance American diplomacy, and ensure our foreign policy is grounded in strength, security, and reality. I’m ready to get to work.

we do not need to consider a hypothesis where: (a) we assume a Gaussian low tail; (b) we assume a non-Gaussian high tail; (c) we assume correlated SNPs w/ no large effect; (d) we assume selection for being dumb when we don't find mean reversion; (e) we invoke pleiotropy when this sounds crazy.
