Another notable essay on the Tower of Babel is Reinhold Niebuhr's in his collection Beyond Tragedy. And yes, in a past life I wrote a long-ish paper comparing Niebuhr and Oakeshott's treatments of the Babel myth ("Politics after Babel") if anyone wants to read it

Side note for KYE nerds: Michael Oakeshott wrote not one but two essay on the Tower of Babel, unsurprising given his emphasis on the perils of "rationalism" (one of the Babel essays is in the Rationalism and Politics collection, the other in the On History volume)
Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex

Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

Feels like a new low for this State Department
Drop Site@DropSiteNews

The State Department says it does not know how many trucks have entered Gaza over the past 30 days, despite demanding that Israel allow 350 trucks daily or face policy consequences. And in a notable shift, the spokesman characterized the demands in the letter as simply “suggestions for Israel to take.” BBC’s @tombateman pressed further, reporting that the UN says only 37 trucks have entered each day—about one-tenth of what was requested: “Have the Israelis ended the isolation in the north?” Patel: “They have taken steps to restore deliveries in the north in areas surrounding Jabalia..” Bateman (interjecting): “You said surrounding Jabalia. But not in Jabalia… the besieged area where the UN says 100,000 people are trapped. There’s been no food, no water, there’s been daily and repeated denials of humanitarian convoys…” Patel: “I will not go down a rabbit hole of a specific tit-for-tat on each item...” Bateman: “As far as I can see from what you’ve said today, absolutely nothing that you’ve asked for is actually happening.”
