Damage from a Ukrainian strike on Russia’s Kushchyovskaya air base is visible in new high resolution satellite imagery. This site is more than 200 kilometers from the front line in Ukraine.
Reports about a very large blast in Petrochemical facilities in Abadan city in south #Iran, very near to oil refinery facilities in the city.
Divorcing the 1948 war from Arab nationalism leads to misunderstandings of the early history of the Palestine cause—not necessarily for better or worse it’s just incredibly weird to act like pan-Arab identity wasn’t the whole point.
Exactly—but their domestic audience cares *a lot* to the point that this is a major domestic issue for the Arab countries. Normalization with Israel or not, they will continue to care about achieving a de jure Palestinian state.

@DerekPederson3 Agreed, the view is upside down. The Saudis want to normalize relation, which requires Israel to defeat Hamas. They just want Israel to do it more quickly, or in any event more effectively, with as little loss of civilian life as possible. Netanyahu et al. don't seem to get that
Hamas’ own casualty stats do not even vaguely support this conclusion that Israel’s war is remotely close to as bad as what the Serbs did in Bosnia, let alone what Lemoine is suggesting here that they’re actually far worse.

The Yugoslavia solution is still basically the best success story ever with respect to such situations. Just break it up!

@Rongwrong_ @DerekPederson3 @CathyYoung63 That wasn't led by Africans reclaiming their homeland. That was the US getting rid of Africans.

@DerekPederson3 Ironically Kissinger's idealistic realism mirrored Joseph Stalin's. Both believed in the ultimate failure of every system but their own, and both therefore saw their duty as ensuring not victory but survival. Survival of their system would then guarantee its eventual triumph.

@DerekPederson3 Devil's advocate: I could see the same argument being used for the opposite conclusion, that the absence of the 1619 project was destructive because it excluded part of the american population (to some extent) from its narrative of America.
