leetnewb, to news in Don’t fall into the trap of ‘picking sides’ over Gaza: Hamas’s attacks were unconscionable, razing Gaza to the ground would be abhorrent. In both cases, basic humanity is at stake --- [Opinion]

You can point out back and forth violence going into the 1800s. Nobody has clean hands in this conflict.

leetnewb, to news in Pilot Who Tried to Kill Flight’s Engines Told Cops He’d Taken Shrooms, Feds Say

I think the headlines play on mushrooms for outrage and clickbait. It makes readers feel better that there is something tangible that can be “controlled” rather than a hard to define cause of someone’s seemingly functional brain misfiring badly.

Another article said he did shrooms 48 hours before the flight.

leetnewb, to news in Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says Palestinian civilians being killed en masse are simply “collateral damage”

Is the title editorialized?

Original: Netanyahu Calls Palestinians ‘Collateral Damage’ As Israel Destroys Gaza Post title: Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says Palestinian civilians being killed en masse are simply “collateral damage”

The revised title reads as Netanyahu using the world simply, which doesn’t appear to be the case in the article.

Your view, if I’m parsing this correctly, is that because Palestinians were wronged 75 years ago by the creation of Israel, the Israeli state should not exist - and that while violence is wrong, Palestinians inherently have a more legitimate right to violence - is that an accurate framing of your view?

If I have that right, is there a point in time, or a number of generations of living on the land, that grants Israelis rights or determination or legitimacy to the land, in your view?

Can anybody translate the video?

leetnewb, to news in Chinese firm Hikvision linked to repression of Uyghurs aids Israeli surveillance in West Bank, Amnesty International says

Generically, security cameras are computers in a box that have a good camera, a surprising amount of processing power to deal with the video stream, and an evolving level of ability to do inference. Hikvision is/was effectively the leading networked security/surveillance camera manufacturer on the planet for the combination of price and quality, but it seems odd to blame the company for what is a sort of generic tool at this point - maybe a bad analogy, but it would be like blaming Google for Android devices being everywhere.
