In a provisional order delivered by the court's president, Joan Donoghue, the court said Israel must ensure "with immediate effect" that its forces not commit any of the acts prohibited by the convention. Donoghue said the court cannot make a final determination right now on whether Israel is guilty of genocide. But she said that given the deteriorating situation in Gaza, the court has jurisdiction to order measures to protect Gaza's population from further risk of genocide.Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10254026646321475884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876605850840709844.post-46009435050060502492024-01-19T13:12:00.000-08:002024-01-19T13:12:35.741-08:00The Late Show's Stephen Colbert brilliantly exposes the foibles of the Republican candidates for president<iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TkjIfMKWQBY?si=6mQKmXcdxplxcwex" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe>Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10254026646321475884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876605850840709844.post-57541613436820037502023-12-19T09:48:00.000-08:002023-12-19T09:48:53.091-08:00Trump Quotes Hitler - Leave it to Colbert to showcase how awful Trump is .... and those who support him.<iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/yRwFgZSiDUc?si=6dyRrTHO3MYwhFH-" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe>Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10254026646321475884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876605850840709844.post-89744691783018243042023-12-18T10:55:00.000-08:002023-12-18T10:55:02.901-08:00Discord is breeding grounds for - 1.

The website Discord (and others) are facilitating this. As of September 2023, Discord is the 35th most visited website in the world with 23.42% of its traffic coming from the United States.Source: <a href="" target="_blank">https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2023/06/06/extremist-propaganda-gaming-chatrooms-discord/70281454007/</a>
Extremist groups use online games to identify possible supporters. For years, researchers have documented examples of extremist organizations – including the white supremacy movements and radical misogynist groups – using online games to disseminate their ideologies and identify potential sympathizers. Be wary of Discord, 4chan, 8chan, etc. They are breeding grounds for - 1. Hate Speech, 2. Hate Actions.

Gaza has one of the youngest populations in the world, with 47% under 18 years old, and the health ministry is reporting that as of November 6, 4,104 children have been killed. UN officials estimate that as of November 5, about 1,270 children have been reported missing and may be trapped under rubble.Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10254026646321475884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876605850840709844.post-75447285377862180202023-11-19T08:38:00.000-08:002023-11-19T08:49:49.294-08:00Biden said on Saturday the Palestinian Authority should ultimately govern the Gaza Strip and the West Bank following the Israel-Hamas war. "As we strive for peace, Gaza and the West Bank should be reunited under a single governance structure, ultimately under a revitalized Palestinian Authority, as we all work toward a two-state solution." "There must be no forcible displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, no reoccupation, no siege or blockade, and no reduction in territory," Biden said. Biden used the op-ed to try to answer the question of what the United States wants for Gaza once the conflict is over.

The idea of barring Trump from holding office is based on the 14th Amendment. Section 3 of the amendment notes that no one can hold office if, having previously done so and taken an oath to uphold the Constitution, they “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.”
The former president encouraged the Capitol insurrection by his words and actions. Those include repeated, false claims of election fraud as well as his speech at the Ellipse on Jan. 6, in which he contended that people had to “fight like hell” to overturn the election result or “you’re not going to have a country anymore.”
In scholarly circles, the argument got a big boost when a paper emerged in August from two members of the Federalist Society, a prominent conservative legal group.
William Baude of the University of Chicago Law School and Michael Stokes Paulsen of the University of St. Thomas Law School argued that the amendment, which dates back to the Civil War era, “remains an enforceable part of the Constitution.”
They added that the amendment “in particular … disqualifies former President Donald Trump and potentially many others, because of their participation in the attempted overthrow of the 2020 presidential election.”
