World News@lemmy.world•Israel phasing out use of desert detention camp after CNN investigation detailing abuses | CNNEnglish
10·2 years agoThis news isn’t as good as it first appears unfortunately:
State attorney Aner Helman told the court that 700 inmates had been moved to Ofer military facility in the occupied West Bank, with another 500 set to be transferred in the weeks to come. Around 200 detainees will remain in Sde Teiman, said Helman
So, they’re not even shutting down their Abu Ghraib in Sde Teiman, but they’re moving the bulk of it to a detention camp called Ofer. Except:
Last week, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said the military launched a probe into the allegations of mistreatment at Sde Teiman, as well as at Anatot and Ofer
In other words Ofer’s already a shit show of human rights abuses as well. They’re just shuffling people around their various camps.

So, he’s a British guy who chose to move from England to an Israeli collective that is literally located on top of a displaced Palestinian village, right up against an actively disputed border and now he’s complaining about it?
This article reads like it was probably put together to generate support for more IDF attacks on Lebanon.

7·2 years agoSure, explain to me!
My guess is that it could be some kind of opportunistic rise of theocratic fascism that has been empowered by the weakening of the social order and social institutions by the clash of disaster capitalism with the old establishment?
It’s very disconcerting.
It’s basically a bog with freshwater coming in through the bottom.
There are some in Massachusets, Colorado, Estonia, and this region of the UK called the Fens.
I find this definition a lot more compelling than the one in the meme.
In other words it’s more to do with geology and how the wetland has formed from groundwater vs water flow, than it is to do with characteristics like ph and trees - those things sort of proceed from the basic structure.
I’ll wait for him forever, like Madama Butterfly.
But yeah this outage might be a long one unless it’s a server issue and someone over there notices.

6·2 years agoIt’s a mistake to write them off as unable to achieve their political goals through force. That’s not something I’d want to test.
I was interpreting that as the cat can somehow see the caption and is offended.
Genetic mutation. If you want to see something even cooler, image search feline chimera.
This. Medically speaking it probably still counts though.

Wtf is going on over there? This sounds like Westboro Baptists have gone mainstream.
When I first read The Handmaid’s Tale in the 1990s it read like an interesting thought experiment, not a prophecy.
Normalize and incentivize publishing negative results!
+ Normalize and incentivize attempting to replicate existing findings!
With these two recommendations we’d speed up discovery exponentially.

politics @lemmy.world•In private, Biden shifts from frustration to confidence that he'll beat Trump
123·2 years agoSomeone that acts confident when they shouldn’t, is colloquially known as a “conman”.
No, that’s incorrect.
A “con man” aka Confidence Trickster is a grifter who gains your confidence in order to scam you.
Having false confidence in itself does not mean someone is necessarily a swindler. It could just be that they are delusional or misinformed.
