No more student graduation speeches - not because of what the valedictorian might say about their own country, but what they might say about a political event 6,000 miles east. Very normal.

“And it’s being done to try, in vain, to protect the reputation of Israel.”

Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace

@stefeich @adam_tooze I know historians love to 'correct' the philosophers, but Seaford's historically-based corrective to Nietzsche on this is quite good. He also sets up an interesting contrast between Hegel & Nietzsche on tragedy and the nature of contradiction, iirc, that I have to dig up now...

sounds like one for @stefeich

“How were the Greeks able to invent philosophy and tragedy? In this book Richard Seaford argues that a large part of the answer can be found in another momentous development, the invention and rapid spread of coinage which produced the first ever thoroughly monetised society.”

To be clear, Chuck Schumer is attacking Trump for not being hawkish enough.

.@SenSchumer: "Iran still has its nuclear stockpile. Its nuclear ambitions are still unchecked, if not accelerated…The nations at the world are furious at Trump: the Asians, the Europeans, even the Middle Eastern allies."

Great job by @Timodc -- we covered this on the show this morning, whole thing is worth watching.
@RepJoshG won't even acknowledge that Netanyahu urged Trump to attack Iran. Says he hasn't read the NYT article. Wild stuff.
The Tennessee Holler@TheTNHoller
WATCH: “Why not just oppose this? We’re gonna trust Trump and Hegseth?” @Timodc grills Democratic congressman @RepJoshG about why he won’t oppose the war, downplays the role Israel played (even after the NYT article), etc.🤔 Full @BulwarkOnline ep: youtu.be/8jrd5UZObF4?si…

An American president threatening the death of an ancient civilization is in some ways the end of the 250-year moral experiment of a constitutional republic that the framers saw as a model for all mankind.

This will be exhibit A in future war crimes trials if he carries out his threats. Tragically, it's those following the manifestly unlawful orders that are the ones most likely to be held to account.

The West thought it could just do a little genocide in Gaza and then wash its hands. How's that working out?
