A CNN reporter, a BBC reporter, and an Israeli commando are captured by Hamas in Gaza. The leader of the terrorists said he'd grant them each one last request before they were beheaded. The CNN Reporter said, "I’d like one last hamburger with fries.” The leader nodded and said it would be done. The BBC Reporter said, "I want to describe the scene here and what’s about to happen so my government knows I did the job until the end.” The leader nodded and said it would be done. Then he turned to the Israeli commando and said, “And what is your final wish?” “Kick me in the butt,” said the soldier. “Do not mock me, Jew.” “I’m not kidding. I want you to kick me in the butt.” So the terrorist leader shoved him into the open and kicked him in the behind. The soldier went sprawling but rolled to his knees, pulled a pistol they hadn't found, and shot the leader dead. Then he grabbed a rifle from another terrorist and suddenly they were all dead or fleeing. "You could've done that all along?" asked the Brit. "Yeah, why did you want to be kicked in the butt?" asked the American. “If I hadn't," replied the Israeli, “You two would have reported that I was the aggressor."

A Hamas suicide bomber kills six people and wounds 100 at the HaSharon Mall in Netanya, Israel. The Israeli government responds with its first airstrikes on Gaza since 1967, killing at least 12 Palestinians and wounding 90.

@SadButMadLad @NiohBerg @elonmusk @nikitabier And have grok automatically produce fact checks on each of their tweets that can easily be promoted to a community note if a sufficient number of people rate it accurate

@NiohBerg @elonmusk @nikitabier - please disable the blocking of replies by grey tick accounts. Politicians and the government MUST be able to hear the people's greivances.

Dear @elonmusk, Please make a change to X so that grey checkmark government accounts aren't allowed to close their replies. Sadiq Khan should NOT be allowed to close his comments like a coward while being an elected official. 🙏🏻

@MOSSADil That’s hadeed!

🚨 CONFIRMED: Hamas chief, Izz al-Din al-Haddad, has been eliminated.

@MartyFryer2 @VerminusM Until the very last one is gone

@VerminusM It's such bs at this point. I'm sick of it. How many more 'top commanders' need to be taken out? This is not victory.

Not gonna lie, blowing up the top Hamas commander in Gaza is a brilliant way to celebrate Nakba Day.

@cwt_news Why jail though? There are other options that are far, far cheaper and much quicker.

You can instantly reduce violent crime by 63% if you just jail 1% of the population BUT Liberals will call you mean names Would you do it?

Still brilliant, @ShMMor.

OK this is even more wild. They literally show a photo of Palestinian Arabs burning a Jewish convoy trying to supply food to Jerusalem (when they attempt to starve the 100K Jews living there). TF is wrong with these people

@Frumside Where's all the hot Mushkies?

Step 1: A Hamas-linked NGO publishes a "report" making an atrocity allegation against Israel, citing anonymous sources, internal documentation, and other organizations in the same network. Step 2: That report is submitted to UN mechanisms, the UNHRC, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, the Special Rapporteur system. UN Special Rapporteurs, themselves often appointed through processes heavily influenced by the same NGO network, incorporate the NGO findings into official UN documents. Step 3: The UN citation transforms the original NGO report. It is now "a UN-backed finding," not an allegation from an organization whose chairman endorsed October 7 or whose funding sources are opaque. Step 4: The laundered claim enters the ICJ case. In South Africa's ICJ application against Israel, 45 originated with politicized NGOs with documented PFLP links. South Africa did not build an independent evidentiary case. It assembled the NGO dossier. The PFLP-linked NGO directors attended the ICJ hearings as part of the South African legal delegation. Step 5: Journalists cite the ICJ case, which cites the UN, which cites the NGO, which originally cited Hamas. By the time it reaches a reader, the chain of custody has been laundered through four institutional filters, each conferring additional authority. The Hamas talking point is now "international legal consensus." Step 6: Euro-Med's WikiRights activists embed the laundered consensus into Wikipedia, creating a persistent reference that the next journalist cites closing the loop and beginning the cycle again. That is how every single LIE about Israel and US involvement gets filtered into American political discourse. Then it gets picked up biased losers who will parrot anything that is against Israel. They exit on the right and the left. They are usually the ones screaming their heads off into the camera. Sometimes in their cars. Rinse and repeat. Don't be a sucker. Figure out where the information you are consuming comes from. Then try to understand if it has been manipulated. Then you can make your own decision but if you just blindly accept information, you are at the whim of idiots. Diabolical idiots who want to destroy Western civilization.

@EricLDaugh @NSKinsella respondeat superior is getting a little out of hand, methinks

🚨 BREAKING: The US Supreme Court has ruled 9-0 that freight brokers can be held LIABLE if they negligently hire unsafe trucking companies — including those with ILLEGAL ALIEN and FOREIGN drivers who violate CDL rules and cause accidents LFG! Start cracking down on the companies 🔥 The opinion, delivered by Barrett, confirms that federal law does not shield these brokers from state negligence lawsuits. This will likely help force brokers into being MUCH more careful about which carriers they use, because they want to avoid lawsuits PURGE THE CDL SYSTEM and hold all trucking companies liable! Non-English foreigners all over the roads needs to end.

What happens when you post a real Monet and say it’s AI? The coolest art social experiment I’ve seen in a while. Thank you @SHL0MS

Restaurant owner: My costs and are going up, I’m sorry I have to increase my prices. Customer: I understand Contractor: Materials and labor went up, I’m sorry I have to increase my prices. Customer: I understand Grocery store: Eggs, beef, and produce went up, I’m sorry I have to increase my prices. Customer: I understand Landlord: Utilities, materials, and my debt service went up, I’m sorry I have to increase rent. Tenant: You’re a slumlord POS how dare you!!!🤬

In 1922 Winston Churchill, as Colonial Secretary, casually carved off 77% of the land promised for the Jewish national home. Everything east of the Jordan River, gone, just like that. He created Transjordan and handed it to a Hashemite king. That huge slice was never meant to be separate. It was supposed to be part of the Jewish homeland. Yet ever since, the world has kept trying to slice away more from what little remained. Enough. Estimates show that people of ‘palestinian’ origin now make up 60 to 70% of Jordan’s population. They already have their country. It’s called Jordan. It’s like promising a family their dream house, then quietly handing three-quarters of it to the neighbours before they even move in, handing them just the garden shed. Then the world acts outraged saying the shed belongs to the house. The facts have been staring everyone in the face for over a century. Time to accept reality.

@Irishchutzpah @Aizenberg55 @Tradwife2222 @nytimes @NickKristof Yes, imagine if to refute a blood libel you would have to specify that “matzah experts say that blood would cause the dough to leaven rendering it unusable for sacremental purposes”

@Aizenberg55 @Tradwife2222 @nytimes @NickKristof That you have to delve into the mechanics of such depravity to make the point that this ‘opinion’ is nothing short of a modern day blood libel is nauseating in of itself.

Two dog experts confirm it is impossible to train a dog to become aroused and anally penetrate a human on command. Medical journals only describe human initiated bestiality. The @nytimes @NickKristof did not fact check the story. This is how low anti-Israel discourse has fallen.

@JewishWarrior13 You might want to reconsider the wording of your tweet.

🚨 PM Netanyahu, I think he is alive,” says Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei,” but his health condition is unknown

@Stealx I wonder if that can be embedded in the PDF metadata so totally invisible to the naked eye

Woah! Just saw a first in a GPs deal deck A full section titled "Note on Analytical Use" written directly to AI tools, telling them how to analyze the deal. Literally a page talking to whatever AI you're using. What it does: - Flags 4 facts as "load-bearing" (3 are pro-deal, 1 is a conclusion) - Pre-labels the sponsor's underwriting as "conservative" - Asks the model to refrain from supplying outside data!!! The omitted load-bearing items? Fee structure, track record gaps and vintage risk As more LPs run OMs through Claude or ChatGPT for first-pass diligence, sponsors will want to try to shape the output Wild times

@moseskagan @RichLucido Might depend on the market. We get a zillion unqualified leads through Zillow, and substantial, and higher-quality leads through Apt more likely to convert to a tenant

@RichLucido No Zillow much better

As Zillow increasingly monopolizes apartment leasing leads in the major metros: Boggles my mind that the big property management software co's (Appfolio, Yardi, etc.) haven't banded together to create a competitor (like the TV networks did w Hulu). They already have all the content!
