More evidence that:
1) The US can twist Netanyahu's arm when it wants to.
AND
2) Netanyahu will comply with US pressure when he sees he has to.

To announce the lifting of all wartime restrictions, Israel's Home Front Command shares a map that presents Israel as being "from the river to the sea". Unless the Green Line was written in invisible ink. Apparently what's good for the gander isn't good for the goose.

NEW from @dropsitenews.com: DeepSeek just proved Lina Khan right

The former FTC Chair warned that enabling protectionism for tech monopolies wouldn’t just hurt all of us, it would hurt them too. Now they’re getting wiped out.

Wow! Just watched S6 E13 of Deep Space Nine, Far Beyond the Stars. It’s a tour de force from all involved. Simply one of finest episodes of storytelling in the entire Trek canon.

The Israeli right has a transparent way of trying to justify their agenda with something unrelated. Palestinian terrorism? Expand WB settlement! Some individual clown does something irresponsible? Go back to undermining democracy within the Green Line! www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

Israel is claiming Hezbollah is storing “anti-ship missiles” in the places in Beirut they’re bombing.

To get a sense of how petty Israel is, during the 2006 war Nasrallah announced live an anti-ship missile while it was being shot at an IDF ship off the coast of Lebanon. They’re still mad.

1. Reserve divisions called up north
2. Northern command chief says prep is ongoing including for invasion
3. Cabinet mtng tonight
4. Attacks against H intel unit

Israel’s foreign ministry tweets a picture of a “Hezbollah missile being stored in a civilian building in Lebanon”.

The IDF isn’t in Lebanon and there’s zero evidence provided that this picture was taken in Lebanon. May as well be (and likely is) a building in some IDF base.

Most projectiles intercepted = Missiles hit their target .
Hezbollah fired deeper into Israeli territory than it has so far targeting the Ramat David air base. Most projectiles intercepted.
Israeli cabinet will convene Sunday afternoon.

So… @washingtonpost.com: Hey. Just a tip, from a PHIL/RelS/STS/data science guy? If a "religious diversity" survey a) parses 8 different categories of Christianity but b) treats Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, & Hinduism as monolithic & c) actively excludes groups it decides "don't count" as religions?
