Ahmed Eldin! You really get all the best slop for us piggies 🐷 thank you! ❤

Ya Matt, all your accents are amazing. However, your German & Israhelli is top notch. Please do them more often.

Well I was going to take it at face value but since you said not to I'll do what I'm told. I don't know what quotidian means but it sounds bad 😂

Alexandrovich giving a bad name to the Pure app.

Can always count on Bad Hasbara to make me laugh: 🤣 Matt gave himself a 10.

i worked the morning shift (graphics dept) for a top 5 market fox local morning show... in 2007, when everyone was starting to realize "good debates" meant better numbers, they would bring in folks for both sides of the argument of the day. i cant remember who the exact talking heads were (I was woefully uninformed on everything but how to find pot) — it was pro-israel dude vs a woman from (I believe) a local palestianian org. The argument on television was no contest, she mopped the floor with the dude — and the producer/ crew meeting was celebrating it as really good television… one of the anchors was literally saying the woman had thanked them “we never get to tell our side of the story.” when the news director clears his throat and took us to the woodchipper, I remember him expressing “THEY LIE;” and that it wouldn’t be a subject we ever touched again. News execs can be pretty obnoxious, but it was the only time I had been part of a dressing down that acrimonious.

The problem with the change the story strategy is you need to be able let some things go and Israel is incapable of ignoring a perceived slight. Netanyahu threw a hissy fit at the Aussie PM this week. Like all Western centrist governments, the last thing Australian Labor wants to do is cede ground to the left. Polite indifference was 100% the correct method of moving past a symbolic recognition of Palestine but Netanyahu made it a story about how crazy he was. Like Matt I’m taking comfort in how bad they are at this.

Let's take a small breath here. Albo revoked the visa of one of Bibi's deputy ministers. That's the world's first successful sanction on an Israeli politician by an Israeli ally. Bibi SOUNDED like he was throwing a hissy fit because Australia is just not a big player. In fact, he vaguely threatened the Australian government for failing to show solidarity with Jewish supremacy. Funny thing: even after condemning the newest West Bank settlement plans, foreign minister Penny Wong still permits shipping "non-lethal" F-35 parts to Israel.

And here's another rebuttal for the restaurant: they're SOCIAL HUBS as well as places that serve food. A lot of the people going there are just going to connect. The restaurants are also distribution sites for charities like the Gaza Soup Kitchen.
