The International Court of Justice should charge Palestine with genocide too: the case for having the court hear two cases at once. My latest in @TheAtlantic: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
.@gcaw: "Without consideration of the October 7 attacks, something is missing from the ICJ proceedings...The case is going forward almost as if the Gaza war were not preceded by, and in retaliation for, an attack that itself resembled genocide." theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

NEW | The Iranian April 13 missile-drone attack on Israel was very likely intended to cause significant damage below the threshold that would trigger a massive Israeli response. The attack was designed to succeed, not to fail. 🧵(1/9)
The Iranian attack "is also a gift to the hapless Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, whose incompetence was universally acknowledged just a day ago," writes @gcaw: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
"I believe that in the case of Robert S. McNamara, guilt and shame played an important part in his life. It’s the main reason why I liked him, why I still consider him to be my favorite war criminal." --From Errol Morris's Hitchens Prize acceptance speech theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Protesters believe they cannot change Hamas, but they might be able to change their own government. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/… another excellent report by Graeme Wood
"During protests in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem this weekend, the global condemnation of Israel’s tactics in Gaza didn’t seem to matter to anyone I spoke with," @gcaw writes. But Israelis’ rage against their government had reached new levels of incandescence. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Research shows that the most cost-effective way to deter crime is increasing the probability that offenders are caught (not making sentences longer). Great to see that the public is on board with this approach.

Irony doesn't mean much when it comes to our suffocating-would-be-censors. @VicUniWgtn, one of NZ’s largest universities, postponed a panel on free speech after students “freak out” it might platform individuals who may make them feel “unsafe”. newstalkzb.co.nz/on-air/heather…

I went to San Marino when I was a kid -- I was in a D&D phase. While there, I bought an awesome crossbow that could shoot sharpened No. 2. pencils and a pretty serious flail (spiky ball-n-chain thing). I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for that tiny sorta country.
The tiny republic of San Marino is alarmingly friendly to Russia. Intelligence sources are concerned about the country, which is surrounded by Italy econ.st/3w9BHZw 👇
At Yale, after days of warnings, the students were finally told, when the police arrived, that if they wish to be arrested, they should stay put, but if they didn’t wish to be arrested, they should leave. Over 40 students *chose* to stay, and many others left. This shows…

One of my favorite Rashid Khalidi quotes from a few months back: (and it's my own approach too) "Students are students, They’re not scholars, or fully developed adults yet. I think you have to cut them a lot of slack.”
so much more fun to read in a book group. basically "Ulysses" is musical, & akin to a Catholic mass celebrating language (i.e., Irish idiomatic speech), the vicissitudes of life, life itself as a stream continuously rushing past, unfathomable. a sensation as of life itself…
“After 10 attempts at reading and completing James Joyce’s magnificent ‘Ulysses’ and only making it to page 10 each time, on attempt number 11, I finally did it! Hallelujah! ‘Ulysses’ should be a real inspiration to anyone interested in breaking the rules in any art form.” -Ron📚
This is exactly correct. There cannot be selective enforcement of rules. So clear distinctions, if any, must be drawn in advance, to prevent unprincipled inconsistencies.
Students at UW regularly camp out for such things as… football tickets. If @UWMadison acts on protesting students for camping out but not other camping students it’s a clear violation of viewpoint neutrality.
