What marketing strategy would you recommend?

This article is very badly written.

This is so fucked up.

In a weird way, I kind of appreciate that these people are being honest and transparent. Israel has already annexed the land for decades, but now they’re dropping the pretense.

I’m so upset about the murder of Adwah Hathaleen last week. He was supposed to soak at my synagogue in July, but when his plane landed in San Francisco he and his cousin had their visas striped. Over a hundred people showed up at the airport in protest. But after flying 10 hours and spending thousands of dollars of sponsorship, they were sent home. And now he’s dead. It’s really got me shook.

I stopped reading the NYTimes after I cancelled my subscription around 2019, but occasionally check it to see how close they’re willing to walk to saying difficult truths. This article is a reminder why I left. It’s pathetic watching them sheepishly murmur ugly facts and whisper when they should shout.

Within Israel, aid restriction is a loudly debated topic: on one hand are organizations, politicians, and pundits who argue that Israel should cut off all aid in order to exterminate every person in Gaza. And on the other are the “moderates” who argue that it is important to allow in a miniscule-but-non-zero amount of aid intended to achieve the same purpose while maintaining the farcical pretense that they aren’t doing what they frequently admit they’re doing. This is the range of mainstream discourse, and it is all out in the open.

They say the quiet part out loud on the floor of the kenesset every day. Does the NYTimes have some rule against reporting Netanyahu’s own words if they’re not spoken to an American audience? He and Smotrich and Ben-Gvir admit to committing starvation in Hebrew the same day Bibi will deny it in a speech in English.

Fuck the NYTimes.
