  • I can’t believe that the

    inaugural editor-in-chief of SAPIR: A Journal of Jewish Conversations

    who

    From 2002 to 2004… was editor-in-chief of The Jerusalem Post.

    and

    is known for his neoconservative foreign policy opinions

    and

    is a supporter of Israel

    could possibly write a propaganda piece to do damage to Palestinians.

    Imagine if his other literary masterpieces included things like

    Stephens called antisemitism “the disease of the Arab mind”

    a December 2019 column titled “The Secrets of Jewish Genius”,[41] in which he contended that Ashkenazi Jews have superior intelligence

    That would be totally crazy, right?!

    The quoted info is from the Wikipedia page about him. I’m not going to link it because you need to learn how to look things up.

    Edit: and NYT still publishing pro-Israel propaganda smdh



  • This is a good question but I would just like to point out that 15 years ago nobody would have predicted that the questions we were asking and answering on stackoverflow would be used to train models (and that open source would have it’s license violated so brazenly) and that if you tried to delete your contributions because you didn’t want them to be used to train models you would get banned from the site, so even though adding a license to your comments might be meaningless, it might also be a powerful tool down the line. You never know how it’ll go.





  • “Israel has not shared complete information to verify whether U.S. defense articles covered under NSM-20 were specifically used in actions that have been alleged as violations of IHL or IHRL in Gaza, or in the West Bank and East Jerusalem during the period of the report,” it said.

    Because of that, the administration said it still finds credible Israel’s assurances that it is using U.S. weapons in accordance with international law.

    The perpetrator didn’t tell us what happened so we find their written assurance of innocence still valid.
