@jeremyscahill What if this news spreads far and reaches Trump himself? How would he react to it?

What does it say about you if you look at this infant and see a threat that must be eliminated?
And what does it say about the values of the countries that defend and enable these murders?
This is the 7-month-old Palestinian baby shot & killed by an Israeli soldier yesterday.

@mtmalinen You yourself use AI for something other than searches: for illustrating your substacks.

Stop using "AI" for anything other than searches. Not for advice. Not for a forecast.
And if you're a CEO, for the love of God, DO NOT REPLACE your human workers with this scam.

turns out AI models cannot do math.. even grade school math. the kind a 10-year-old solves. Apple published a devastating study that exposes a massive illusion at the core of artificial intelligence. they took the standard math benchmark (GSM8K) that every AI company uses to brag about how smart their model is. first, they just changed the names in the word problems.. the models' performance fluctuated for no reason. then, they changed the numbers. the performance immediately dropped. but then they ran the test that broke everything. they added one single, completely irrelevant sentence to the word problem. something like: "By the way, 5 of the apples were green." A human 10-year-old ignores the green apples and solves the underlying math. the AI didn't. across every state-of-the-art model, performance collapsed by up to 65%. the AI blindly grabbed the irrelevant number and tried to shove it into the equation. it didn't know why it was doing the math. it just saw a number and assumed it was supposed to use it. there is no genuine logical reasoning happening under the hood. we are deploying these systems to run our finances, analyze our legal documents, and make complex strategic decisions. but the models don't actually understand the logic they are spitting out. they just know what a smart answer is supposed to look like.

🚨 ARMENIA IS BEING PUSHED TOWARD GEOPOLITICAL SUICIDE 🚨
Armenia is days away from elections, and anyone who worries about sovereignty, territorial integrity, the Armenian Church, or Turkish-Azerbaijani expansion is instantly smeared as “Kremlin payroll.”
But when European leaders, journalists, public figures, and cultural personalities flood Armenia weeks before the vote to support Nikol Pashinyan, we are told this is just “normal political interaction.”
Armenia is a small nation trapped between Turkey and Azerbaijan.
It cannot afford to become a polarizing anti-Russian satellite in the South Caucasus.
The only formula for Armenian survival is balance: between East and West, Russia and Europe, Russia and NATO, while preserving Iran as Armenia’s friendliest and most vital neighbor.
If Armenia antagonizes Russia or Iran, who will defend it when Azerbaijan threatens Syunik, speaks of “Western Azerbaijan,” and prepares the next stage of expansion?
Europe will not save Armenia.
The Trans-Atlantic alliance will not sacrifice Turkey and Azerbaijan for Armenia.
We saw this in 2020. We saw it again in 2023, when Artsakh was abandoned, and Armenians were ethnically cleansed while the world watched.
Armenia must not become Ukraine 2.0.
Because if this path continues, the Armenian people may be pushed into an existential trap, while Ankara and Baku wait for the historical opportunity to finish what began in 1915.

🇸🇩 🏀 “Lobby Kareem. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has been silent. Magic Johnson has been silent. MJ has been silent. You get one Hall of Famer to come out and say the word Sudan, and it changes this war. I’m not kidding. You get LeBron or Jaylen to come out and say the word Sudan — say it — and you’ll change this war.”
Yale Humanitarian Research Lab Director Nathaniel Raymond explains the UAE’s role in Sudan remains politically vulnerable because its global influence depends on Western sports, tourism, and corporate partnerships.
Speaking with Drop Site News, Raymond says pressure campaigns targeting the NBA, Manchester City, and Emirati sovereign wealth investments could do more to disrupt the Rapid Support Forces’ (RSF) war effort than stalled diplomatic initiatives.
“The NBA can do more here than the United States government,” Raymond said, explaining how the RSF remains heavily dependent on fragile UAE military supply lines and sustained outside funding.
“If the UAE feels that they have to choose between Sudan and the parquet floor in the NBA finals, it’s a very easy choice for Mohammed bin Zayed (President of the UAE).”

@dimitrilascaris USAmericans see their own country as the world's biggest threat?
"A curious case of the vanished brainwashing"?
English
Other than some brainwashed fools in France, Germany, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe and Japan, virtually the entire world now sees the United States as the greatest threat to humanity.
Dishonourable mention goes to Israel, which is viewed as the greatest threat in some parts of the Muslim world - including Morocco, whose corrupt, Western-backed dictatorship has normalized with Israel.

I just found out that I'm blocked by an MD that last Oct I just asked of her views.
This is the n-th time to be met with intolerance when calm & 100% polite. Exceptional civility may carry a high risk of causing rage. Being exceptional is exactly what makes it *NOT beliveable*.

@arsalfeed @Housebots I'm a boomer.I get frustrated with my peers won't LOOK at subjects that make them "uncomfortable," then whine that someone should "fix this mess." Just be curious and courageous enough to LOOK, learn, ask questions, STOP trusting "authorities." Reclaim response-ability & power.

Moments ago, while strolling across the magical Imam Square in Isfahan, Iran, we heard several explosions in the distance (one of which is audible just after the 1-minute mark of this video).
Yet no one flinched. No one screamed. No one ran for cover.
Compare the calm response of Isfahan’s residents to the frenzied fear of Israeli colonists when missile sirens ring in their cities - and bear in mind that Israelis claim to have missile defence systems that are vastly superior to those of Iran.
Finally, note how many adult women are walking in public in Imam Square with no head covering.
They’re telling you a pack of lies about Iran.

🚨 DELETED VIDEO ALERT: This didn’t disappear by accident.
Rep. Thomas Massie says Trump called him on the House floor after he pushed to release the Epstein files.
Not once. Not twice.
Three times:
“I’m coming at you like you’ve never seen in your life.”
Let that sink in.
A sitting president allegedly threatening a member of Congress…for trying to release documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein.
Then the video gets wiped off the platform?
The question isn’t what Massie said.
The question is: why was it so dangerous it had to be erased?

Happening now in Tehran:
After a 9-hour drive from Tabriz to Tehran, we arrived in Tehran at 5:30 am this morning.
We are now walking with a great mass of people to the largest mosque in Iran, the Grand Mosalla of Tehran, for Eid Al Fether.

I want to coin a term for the sensation where you could write that paragraph perfectly well but you also know that Claude would write it better and it's paralyzing because you don't want to use AI and you also don't want to write something less good than AI. So everything stops.
