Abducted by Israel and Abandoned by Lebanon, Lebanese Fishermen Fear the Sea
In southern Lebanon, legacy fishermen are losing their livelihoods amid repeated Israeli abductions and attacks. The Lebanese state is doing little to help.
dropsitenews.com/p/lebanese-fi…
These fears aren’t new. During Israel’s occupation of southern Lebanon from 1978 until 2000, fishermen were routinely harassed. Occupation soldiers frequently invaded Lebanese waters and terrorized fishermen, destroying their nets, detaining them, and humiliating them with strip searches.

“Choose a life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television. Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers... Choose DSY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit crushing game shows, stucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away in the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself, choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that?”

Israel is committing genocide as part of a war of conquest. If Israel is not isolated diplomatically and economically, this will become the new normal. Good news for Russia, the US, China. Good news for fascism. apnews.com/article/isra...

Occupying Gaza isn't just abhorrent because it will inevitably lead to the continuation of the genocide.
It's also plain stupid: in 2005, Israel withdrew from Gaza not as a goodwill gesture or for peace, as bad faith historians may claim, but because occupying the strip was financially unsustainable and a security nightmare for the occupying forces. There is 0 reason to assume a new Israeli occupation of Gaza would be different this time.

Neu: In WDR 5 sprach ich mit Journalistin Anja Backhaus über die aktuelle Veränderung in der deutschen Nahost-Berichterstattung. Und darüber, wie die Instrumentalisierung von Bildern, ein gruppenbezogener Generalverdacht und fehlende völkerrechtliche Verankerung aktiv mediale Verzerrungen erzeugen.

Die deutsche Medienberichterstattung zum Nahostkonflikt hat sich in den letzten Wochen nochmals intensiviert. Ob diese kritischer geworden ist und welche Rolle Bilder dabei spielen, darüber sprechen wir mit Medienkritikerin Nadia Zaboura.Mediathek

Wenn eine über jeden Zweifel erhabene Wissenschaftlerin in Würde erklärt, dass sie für das Amt der Verfassungsrichterin nicht mehr zur Verfügung steht, dann ist das etwas anderes als „Brosius-Gersdorf wirft hin“, liebe Nachrichtensender.
Bei „wirft hin“ sehe ich ein wütendes Kind oder eine beleidigte Leberwurst vor mir, keine stolze, verantwortungsvolle Frau, der sehr übel mitgespielt wurde - was sie glücklicherweise auch klar benennt.

We used to joke that every incoming Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge gets to force one government U-turn by threatening to pull the university out of undergraduate education and go postgrad-and-research-only. It may be time for Prof. Prentice to shoot her shot.

Your restaurant's website is often the first interaction a customer has with your brand, and it can decide whether they choose to dine with you. It's more than a digital presence — it's a tool to attract and convert visitors. A skilled website designer or web design agency can craft a site that's both visually appealing and highly functional, ensuring it drives business to your door.
Customers visit your site to see what's on the menu, not to browse generic images or logos. High-quality, authentic photos of your dishes are critical. A website designer can optimize these images to load quickly while showcasing your food in an appetizing way, giving customers a clear idea of what to expect.
A menu buried in a PDF or scattered across multiple pages frustrates users, especially on mobile. A clean, scrollable menu integrated into the site is the best solution. A web design agency can create a system that lets you update items or prices easily, keeping your menu current without needing technical expertise. PDFs are fine for printing, but they shouldn't be the only option.
Too many restaurant websites hide contact details or use broken booking systems. Your phone number should be prominent on every page, your address should link to a map, and any booking option must work seamlessly on mobile. A website designer ensures these features are intuitive and always accessible, making it easy for customers to connect.
Most visitors browse your site on their phones, often while on the move. A mobile-first design prioritizes small screens with simple navigation and tappable buttons. A web design agency tests your site across devices to ensure it's fast and user-friendly, capturing those spur-of-the-moment diners.
A brief story about what makes your restaurant unique — like your local ingredients or family recipes — builds a connection. Keep it short and place it where it enhances the experience without overshadowing key features. A website designer can weave this narrative into the design seamlessly.
A slow website drives customers away before they see your menu. Optimized images, reliable hosting, and clean code are essential for speed. A web design agency handles these technical details, ensuring your site loads quickly and keeps visitors engaged.
An outdated site with old menus or promotions signals neglect. A website designer can include tools for easy updates, allowing you to keep content fresh without hassle. This reassures customers your restaurant is active and welcoming.
If you offer delivery or pickup, the ordering process should be clear and mobile-friendly. Whether using a third-party platform or a custom system, it needs to be intuitive. A website designer ensures ordering feels like a natural part of your site's experience.
Your website should reflect your restaurant's personality, whether it's a cozy bistro or a modern gastropub. A web design agency crafts colors, fonts, and layouts to match your vibe, creating a digital space that feels like your dining room.
Avoid flashy extras like animations until the essentials — menu, photos, contact info, and speed — are perfect. A website designer prioritizes these core elements to ensure your site drives business effectively.
A great restaurant website is clear, fast, and customer-focused, showcasing your food and simplifying connections. Partnering with a Singapore website designer or web design agency ensures your site is as inviting as your restaurant, turning online visitors into loyal diners.

It's an indisputable fact that if you put an offer on the table to first fully implement already existing ICJ rulings and UN resolutions as a baseline, and then negotiate on the open questions that remain, Palestinians, including their ‘extremists', would agree without hesitation, and Israel would categorically refuse, including its 'liberal' political wing.
That asymmetry alone tells you absolutely everything there is to know about which side is to blame for the absence of a negotiated solution by now.

This image by AFP photojournalist Omar al-Qattaa shows a skeletal, underfed girl in Gaza, where Israel's blockade has fuelled fears of mass famine in the Palestinian territory.
But when social media users asked Grok where it came from, X boss Elon Musk's artificial intelligence chatbot was certain that the photograph was taken in Yemen nearly seven years ago.
The AI bot's untrue response was widely shared online and a left-wing pro-Palestinian French lawmaker, Aymeric Caron, was accused of peddling disinformation on the Israel-Hamas war for posting the photo.
