Netanyahu Resorts To Religious FUNDAMENTALISM To Justify Brutal War
Oct 30, 2023 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly invoked fundamentalist theology to justify mass civilian killing in the Gaza Strip. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks.
Read more HERE: https://www.thedailybeast.com/benjami...
"In an address to the nation about the looming ground invasion into Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu evoked images of light and dark, promising to save the nation from Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas, which attacked Israel on October 7. “We are the people of light, they are the people of darkness—and light shall triumph over darkness,” Netanyahu said, according to a translation from i24NEWS in Israel. “Our war against Hamas is a test for all of humanity it is a struggle between the axis of evil of Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas, and the axis of freedom and progress.” The comments evoked a controversial tweet that his office posted and then deleted on X, or Twitter, last week after a deadly blast hit a hospital in Gaza. Netanyahu went on: “It is now a time to come together for one purpose to storm ahead to achieve victory in joint with joint forces and a profound belief in justice, a profound belief in the eternity of the Jewish people. We shall realize the prophecy of Isaiah,” he said."

Dr. Oktay Duran High School, Istanbul

Dr. Oktay Duran Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School
19 Apr 2021
Dr. Oktay Duran High School in Istanbul
Architecture: Uygur Architects
Location: Istanbul, Western Turkey
Dr. Oktay Duran Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School is just one of the package project named as “45 Public Buildings in Istanbul”. Schools, which are decided to be demolished and reconstructed in Istanbul within the scope of ISMEP (Istanbul’s Seismic Risk Removal Project), are designed on the same site by increasing their capacities.
Dr. Oktay Duran Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School has a particular prominence by being a printing technical high school that also prepares the printed documents for the schools of Istanbul. 1-storey level difference from one end to the other of the corner parcel where the school building is located, played a major role in determining the building tectonics.
With its relatively large volume, the sports hall is interconnected to the interior composition on the lower ground level by having a social recreational potential.
While the roof of the hall is designed as a square merging into the school garden, with an amphitheater it is connected to the triangular courtyard surrounded by the triangular mass of the school by functionalizing the elevation difference of the land.
Around the triangular courtyard indoor social common spaces are arranged by widening and narrowing flow of the circulation spaces.
Accepting the entity of school as “the first public space”, the design principle defends the idea that common social spaces generate the educational framework of school designs. As an education-supporting element of the school, all the materials used in the construction are used raw, therefore exhibited in a simple format. Consideration has been given to the quantity and the quality of the access of natural light into the interior spaces, and accordingly the interior configuration has been examined in order for vertical and horizontal circulation areas to benefit from light.
The eloquent perspectives that emerged as a result of the triangular form added dynamism to the building and enhanced the transparency of circulation within the building.
45 Public Buildings in Istanbul The project consists of the rehabilitation of 45 public buildings in various districts of Istanbul, Turkey within the Istanbul Seismic Master Plan. Except few buildings the project is mainly focuses on schools in İstanbul.
The works related to the rehabilitation program includes demolition of the existing buildings, data collection, architectural and engineering design studies, preparation of construction tender documents and provision of supervision services during the construction works. Uygur Architects carried out the architectural design, engineering design coordination, preparation of construction tender documents and provision of architectural supervision during the construction works.
Architects considered this project as an important opportunity for modernization of the educational spaces. According to the architects’ approach, each school should have its own identity instead of applying a typical project, which is the most accepted by the Ministry of Education.
Thus, even though the new schools have the same concept, each of them is designed separately within its own context. Besides, as a significant design principle, contemporary education understanding is adopted by composing various indoor and outdoor common spaces.
Considering that fact that schools are the first social public spaces children could experience, predominantly the common spaces generate the educational framework of school designs.
Each project was designed with the awareness that educational units not only are for students, but also improve the learning desire, environmental conscience and spatial taste of the residents in city life. In order to design socially sustainable and energy-saving buildings, the structural components are designed and constructed without any paint or coating.

Republican Insiders: It's OVER For Trump

"Shooting rubber bullet grenades at protesting priests. Catastrophically botching the pandemic response, resulting in a public health and economic calamity. Tweeting “white power” memes. Ranting in front of empty arenas about how he navigated a “slippery ramp.” Being MIA while his Russian benefactors put out a hit on American soldiers in Afghanistan. The last 3 months have been a political dumpster fire for President Trump, and the flames have engulfed Republicans up and down the ballot. But while pockets of Republican resistance have roasted Dear Leader, elected officials in D.C. and their svengalis in the consultant class have remained steadfast."

"WASHINGTON — Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., who lost both legs in a 2004 helicopter crash during the Iraq War, hit back at Fox News host Tucker Carlson by asking if he wanted to "walk a mile in my legs" after he suggested she and other Democratic leaders "hate America." "You're not supposed to criticize Tammy Duckworth in any way because she served in the military," Carlson said in the opening monologue of his Monday show. "Most people just ignore her. But when Duckworth does speak in public, you're reminded of what a deeply silly and unimpressive person she is." "These people actually hate America," he said, adding later in the show that Democratic leaders "despise this country."

Hi, sorry to bother you but I’ve had your asian mythology post saved for writing for a while, and I was wondering if you could tell me which ones are specifically chinese? I just don’t want to be disrespectful. Id love to use Tulpar in a background story for a chinese character but please let me know if thats not accurate. Thanks x
Depends on what u mean as chinese. If you mean ancient chinese around first centuries none of them would. All the ones in that post are Mongolian and Turkic mythology, aka Altai part of Ural - Altai language family (ural altay consists variety of languages from Finnish to Turkish to Korean to Mongolian)
None of those figures would fit a chinese caracter of the past but if u mean modern chinese there is a big population of Uygur Turks (who are rather popular in world media due to china actively genociding them in camps to harvest their organs for medical reasons and child sex labouring their young) in modern China that could be familliar with them 🤷🏻‍♀️
That said Mongolian and Turkic tradition and personality is not a closed culture that doesnt allow outsiders to practise or believe in it. It doesnt matter your origins if you call yourself Turkic or a person of that land people usually accept you as that but i would assume if one nationality they wouldnt like that would be Chinese with rly good reasons

louisproyect | July 10th 2019 | Louis Proyect: The Unrepentant Marxist
Tumblr media
On their Gray Zone website, Max Blumenthal and his mini-me Ben Norton (aka Ned Borton) have just come out with a 5,600 word diatribe against the Socialism 2019 Conference in Chicago. Most people still tethered to the planet would understand that the main political questions raised by the DSA/ex-ISO conference was whether support for Democratic Party candidates is tactically permissible. Instead, the two geniuses were playing Vishinsky-like prosecuting attorneys making the case that “Socialism is now apparently brought to you by the US State Department”.
They dug up every connection that conference speakers had to inside-the-beltway NGOs and government agencies like the NED to read the DSA and ex-ISOers out of the radical movement. One would think that these two nitwits would put more energy into helping the left put together a conference that did not have such nefarious ties. I can recommend some left groups that are as unsullied as them: Workers World, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, the Socialist Equality Party, the Spartacist League and Socialist Action. These five groups have never been implicated in smoke-filled room deals with officials of the Deep State, to be sure. In fact, if all of them got together to stage a Communism 2019 Conference, they wouldn’t need to line up a Hyatt hotel. A church basement would do just fine.
To turn NED funding, or any other such body, into a litmus test as to a group’s leftist credentials is a problematic methodology. Its main problem is that it turns the nation-state into the unit of analysis rather than the social class.
For example, they excoriate the China Labour Bulletin for taking money from the NED but do not say anything about what it stands for. If you go to their website, you’ll find articles, for example, on coal mine safety in China that contains such data:
The Daping coal mine in Zhengzhou, Henan province, where 148 people died in a gas explosion on 20 October 2004, had been inspected and approved for an annual production capacity of 900,000 tonnes. In 2003, the mine produced 1.32 million tonnes of coal, and from January to September 2004 it had already produced 960,000 tonnes. Similarly, the Sunjiawan coal mine in Liaoning province, where a gas explosion killed at least 214 miners on 14 February 2005, had been approved for a production capacity of 900,000 tonnes, but its actual output in 2004 was 1.48 million tonnes. The Shenlong coal mine in Fukang county, Xinjiang province, where 83 miners died in a gas explosion on 11 July 2005, had a safe production capacity of only 30,000 tonnes, but during the first half of 2005 alone it had already produced almost 180,000 tonnes of coal.
You will find absolutely nothing about “regime change” in the CLB. It is simply one of the few voices Chinese workers have making their case. If the NED provides funding for their work, there is no stigma as long as the money comes with no-strings-attached.
The truth is that the NED and similar bodies from George Soros’s Open Foundation to Human Rights Watch will always try to take advantage of protests in every corner of the world in order to influence them. Why would anybody expect anything different? To be consistent, you’d have to condemn the student movement in Egypt in 2011 in the same way you condemn CLB. In fact, Global Research—Gray Zone’s closest relative—did exactly that. Tony Cartalucci put it this way in an article titled “The US Engineered “Arab Spring”: The NGO Raids in Egypt”:
It is hardly a speculative theory then, that the uprisings were part of an immense geopolitical campaign conceived in the West and carried out through its proxies with the assistance of disingenuous organizations including NED, NDI, IRI, and Freedom House and the stable of NGOs they maintain throughout the world. Preparations for the “Arab Spring” began not as unrest had already begun, but years before the first “fist” was raised, and within seminar rooms in D.C. and New York, US-funded training facilities in Serbia, and camps held in neighboring countries, not within the Arab World itself.
In 2008, Egyptian activists from the now infamous April 6 movement were in New York City for the inaugural Alliance of Youth Movements (AYM) summit, also known as Movements.org. There, they received training, networking opportunities, and support from AYM’s various corporate and US governmental sponsors, including the US State Department itself. The AYM 2008 summit report states that the Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, James Glassman attended, as did Jared Cohen who sits on the policy planning staff of the Office of the Secretary of State. Six other State Department staff members and advisers would also attend the summit along with an immense list of corporate, media, and institutional representatives.
Can you tell the difference between Tony Cartalucci and the Gray Zone? I can’t.
Much venom is sprayed at Anand Gopal and Dan La Botz for the same kinds of reasons. Gopal is an acclaimed journalist who has made repeated trips to Syria from Turkey without Baathist approval. As with other reporters who refuse to write propaganda for the dictatorship, he had to find other ways to interview Syrians. He would crawl beneath a barbed wire fence on the border and follow painted rocks that were place there by villagers to avoid land mines. In a talk on Syria recently, Gopal argued that part of the explanation for the failure of the revolution was that the leadership were small proprietors in the local governments of rebel-controlled territory that insisted on preserving private property relations. If this book is nearly as good as his book on Afghanistan that was a Pulitzer prize runner up, it should gain widespread attention. Meanwhile, Blumenthal’s reporting on Syria is the same as Vanessa Beeley’s, just regime propaganda. At least Beeley went to Syria, even if was limited to 4-star hotels and tea parties with the dictator. Can you imagine Sidney Blumenthal’s golden boy crawling under barbed wire fences and stepping close to land mines to get a story? I can’t.
The attacks on Dan La Botz are just as apolitical. I am just as opposed to La Botz’s special pleading for the reactionary student movement in Venezuela as Blumenthal and Norton but I wouldn’t dream of smearing him as a State Department tool. In fact, this kind of attack has roots in Stalin’s demonization of his opponents who were supposedly trying to overthrow the USSR because both they and the capitalist media described him as a ruthless dictator.
In channeling Stalin, these two pinheads make sure to use the word “Trotskyite” throughout, a term that is a dead giveaway for politics that have largely died out after the collapse of the USSR and the transformation of the CPs into Eurocommunist type parties, except for the KKE in Greece that is cut from the same cloth as Gray Zone.
Looking back at the history of the radical movement, you will find many attempts to take advantage of imperialist rivalry. For Blumenthal and Norton, the only imperialist powers in the world are those in the West. China and Russia are clearly seen by them as anti-imperialist states even though the subjugation of the Uygurs and Syrians that Gray Zone defends are clearly imperialist in character. If Uygurs and Syrians are expected to pass their litmus test, it would mean suicide since the world is divided into two major geopolitical blocs. For all of their ranting against the White Helmets from receiving funding from the West, you would be hard-pressed to see how else they could have assembled a first responder team that has saved thousands of lives. Obviously, Gray Zone must believe that bombing hospitals is warranted in rebel-controlled territory since all the patients are likely carrying the dread sharia-law virus.
Fortunately, people like Roger Casement and others trying to exploit the differences between Anglo-American and German imperialism didn’t take Gray Zone type advice.
Who could blame Irish freedom fighter Roger Casement for trying to strike deals with Kaiser Wilhelm to get weapons to liberate his people? During a period of inter-imperialist rivalries, it was not considered a betrayal of socialist principles to look for such opportunities. In Roy’s case, there was the added dimension of his writing the theses on national liberation adopted by the Comintern. How could you cozy up with imperialists and then write such classic statements of Marxist policy?
This is not to speak of V.I. Lenin’s stance with respect to the same bogeymen. In “To the Finland Station”, Edmund Wilson describes the uneasy feelings that some of his comrades had that were by no means as disgusting as Gray Zone’s attack on Socialism 2019:
In the train that left the morning of April 8 there were thirty Russian exiles, including not a single Menshevik. They were accompanied by the Swiss socialist Platten, who made himself responsible for the trip, and the Polish socialist Radek. Some of the best of the comrades had been horrified by the indiscretion of Lenin in resorting to the aid of the Germans and making the trip through an enemy country. They came to the station and besieged the travelers, begging them not to go. Lenin got into the train without replying a word.
Even after Hitler took power, some nationalists continued in the same vein, the most notable among them Subhas Chandra Bose who relied on both German and Japanese support for an army that could liberate India. Despite this marriage of convenience, Bose was politically on the left and an admirer of the USSR. Indeed, Stalin’s nonaggression pact with Hitler served his policy aims well as indicated by his 1941 Kabul Thesis written just before he travelled to Germany to consult with the Nazis:
Thus we see pseudo-Leftists who through sheer cowardice avoid a conflict with Imperialism and argue in self-defence that Mr. Winston Churchill (whom we know to be the arch-Imperialist) is the greatest revolutionary going. It has become a fashion with these pseudo-Leftists to call the British Government a revolutionary force because it is fighting the Nazis and Fascists. But they conveniently forget the imperialist character of Britain’s war and also the fact that the greatest revolutionary force in the world, the Soviet Union, has entered into a solemn pact with the Nazi Government.
While some sought advantage by aligning with the axis, others found the allies more amenable to their broader goals. While he would eventually find himself locked in a deadly struggle with American imperialism, Ho Chi Minh had no problem connecting with the OSS during WWII as recounted by William Duiker in his 2000 biography “Ho Chi Minh: a Life”:
While Ho Chi Minh was in Paise attempting to revitalize the Dong Minh Hoi, a U.S. military intelligence officer arrived in Kunming to join the OSS unit there. Captain Archimedes “Al” Patti had served in the European Theater until January 1944, when he was transferred to Washington, D.C., and appointed to the Indochina desk at OSS headquarters. A man of considerable swagger and self-confidence, Patti brought to his task a strong sense of history and an abiding distrust of the French and their legacy in colonial areas. It was from the files in Washington, D.C. that he first became aware of the activities of the Vietminh Front and its mysterious leader, Ho Chi Minh.
The next day, Patti arrived at Debao airport, just north of Jingxi, and after consultation with local AGAS representatives, drove into Jingxi, where he met a Vietminh contact at a local restaurant and was driven to see Ho Chi Minh in a small village about six miles out of town. After delicately feeling out his visitor about his identity and political views, Ho described conditions inside Indochina and pointed out that his movement could provide much useful assistance and information to the Allies if it were in possession of modern weapons, ammunition, and means of communication. At the moment, Ho conceded that the movement was dependent upon a limited amount of equipment captured from the enemy. Patti avoided any commitment, but promised to explore the matter. By his own account, Patti was elated.
Right now, the biggest question facing the left is class independence, something clearly of little importance to Ben Norton who is a big Tulsi Gabbard fan. In this interview, he is positively glowing about her political growth even though she had “odious” views in the past.

Trying to stake out a position that will stand out in a crowded “anti-imperialist” left will be tough for Norton and Blumenthal. You can read the same sort of thing in Consortium News, Moon of Alabama, Mint Press, Off-Guardian, 21st Century Wire, DissidentVoice, Information Clearing House, et al. To separate themselves from the pack, my advice to the two careerists is to find some sugar daddy that can throw some money their way. Ron Unz of UNZ Review not only has deep pockets but lots of sympathy for their tilt toward Russia and Syria. That is if you can put up with his neo-Nazism.

A record number of young adults in the US are currently living at home, and all that saved rent is sparking a luxury boom. Recent data from the US Census Bureau shows that nearly half of young Americans between the ages of 18 and 29 are living with their parents today. That's a historical high not seen since the Great Depression era, Morgan Stanley analysts wrote in a Friday note.

Did you know that at the federal level, the better-funded candidate wins over 90% of the time? Find out how you can contribute at http://downticket.com on your mobile device. Older Americans are going bankrupt at alarming rates. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. "For a rapidly growing share of older Americans, traditional ideas about life in retirement are being upended by a dismal reality: bankruptcy. The signs of potential trouble — vanishing pensions, soaring medical expenses, inadequate savings — have been building for years. Now, new research sheds light on the scope of the problem: The rate of people 65 and older filing for bankruptcy is three times what it was in 1991, the study found, and the same group accounts for a far greater share of all filers. Driving the surge, the study suggests, is a three-decade shift of financial risk from government and employers to individuals, who are bearing an ever-greater responsibility for their own financial well-being as the social safety net shrinks. The transfer has come in the form of, among other things, longer waits for full Social Security benefits, the replacement of employer-provided pensions with 401(k) savings plans and more out-of-pocket spending on health care. Declining incomes, whether in retirement or leading up to it, compound the challenge.”*

We set off all the way west, after several twists and turns, with the bright sun hanging high in the sky at 10 p.m., seeing endless roads and blue sky, beautiful and magnificent snow mountains. Finally, we reached Kashgar, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. In May this year, the beautiful Kashgar introduced the first 10000W fiber laser cutting equipment in the whole Xinjiang region.
 President Dong, the person in charge of the company from Kashgar Chaoxiang New Building Materials Co., Ltd., introduced that this set of 20kw fiber laser cutting machine was purchased from Beijing Jiutian Laser, and the core light source is Raycus 20000W continuous fiber laser. Due to the epidemic situation, the equipment passed through many places and finally arrived at Xinjiang.
 Mr. Dong lamented that his history of making a fortune originated from the first 3kw fiber laser cutting equipment he introduced in the whole Kashgar region a few years ago, but the power was still relatively low at that time and the processed plates were relatively thin. However, it is this 3000W laser cutting equipment that has changed my own enterprise from a "workshop" into a local leading enterprise with 6 or 7 plants covering an area of 100 mu. At the same time, it makes me realize the gap between traditional equipment and new-type equipment and the progress of national science and technology.
 As a manufacturer specializing in steel structure production, Chaoxiang's main processing business is 10-20mm carbon steel plate cutting and welding. Before, it has been using traditional processing equipment, such as flame cutting machine, drilling machine, etc.
 President Dong said that the traditional processing methods, such as flame cutting, have slow speed, low processing accuracy, large thermal impact, serious environmental pollution, high risk factor for operators, and high cost of consumed accessories and gas during operation. After introducing the laser equipment, there are almost no other losses except power consumption, with such advantages as high processing accuracy, fast speed, small thermal impact, no secondary treatment for the processed finished products, high equipment safety and reliability, and low industrial injury risk for operators.
 President Dong further said that with the traditional drilling method, it needs to take up to 4 minutes to drill a 32mm hole for carbon steel with a plate thickness of 14mm. Now, after introducing 20000W Raycus laser, it is expected that it can be controlled within 10 seconds, and the platform can be designed at one time and the multi holes can be drilled at one time, further reducing the operation time and cost of material feeding,blanking and transfering.
 At the same time, the drilling bit loss, plate loss and coolant loss will also be greatly reduced, the heat accumulation and physical deformation caused by machining will also be significantly improved, and the previous iron filings brought by drilling will also disappear, now becoming surplus materials very neat and easy to handle. The 20000W laser purchased will not only save time, reduce cost, show environmental protection and energy saving, but also make great progress in product quality improvement.
 President Dong finally mentioned that as a Chinese Communist, he always believes in domestic technology and Raycus. The introduction of 20000W laser equipment is not only for expanding the needs of the factory production, but also a tribute to the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China.
 In front of such a responsible patriotic entrepreneur, as an interviewer, I can't help but show high respect and admiration. As a first-class core light source supplier in China, we have more obligations and responsibilities to provide high-quality services for such enterprises.

A week ago Abu Umar was deeply triggered by the book “The War on the Uyghurs: China's Internal Campaign Against a Muslim Minority”
by Sean R. Roberts.
Actually, it wasn’t just him. For me (Ayman), for Abu Hamza al Muhajir and for Abu Aziza Islamophobia is a strong trigger too.
Erik triggering almost by any genocide, and Ver.B.A. have trigger with Marxist/leftist kind of bigotry. Well, I’m triggered by authoritarian left stuff too. Actually it’s one of my biggest triggers.
But Abu Umar was suffering the most.
He felt like he wanted to die and at the same time he wanted to fight, or run. He couldn’t just hide in the inner world. This world seemed really unsafe for him. And he was really furious that he couldn’t save Uygurs.
He stuck here, despite that most of the time he doesn’t believe that our world is real. He didn’t believe even then. For him it was just a nightmare.
And we all were in pain because of it.
I still feel angry to Chinese government but even more for Western government for justifying genocide, for ones who dared justified the killing of innocent people because of their ethnicity and religion. Who finds justification to Chinese government in their “culture” or in “war on terror”. And it doesn’t really matter that Uighurs don’t have a terrorist network in reality, that it’s all just a Chinese moral panic.
There is no justification for killing civilians, for mass torture and concentration camps. There is no justification for persecuting kids for their parents ethnicity. Even if their parents are terrorists (but they are not).
Pity that people doesn’t realize it after Holocaust.
And I hate all “progressive” “feminists” and activists and “leftist” who justify that killing. And yeah, I know such kind of Nazi who called themselves by fancy names. I know such “feminists” and activists in Russia. And this is why I would never feel safe in Russian activist community.
Also I hate everyone who said that leftists couldn’t be toxic. Not just because of China and Uyghurs, but because of my own post-USSR experience too.
And I hate all ableists who believe that alters couldn’t have their own feelings, beliefs, and identity, all people who think that we are not people at all.
When our society could tolerate dehumanization of some people - it doesn’t matter if it’s Black or Uyghurs or Muslim or the ones who part of the Multiple System - no one safe.
When some people are “less people” then other human rights concepts just don't work.
And you could be next.
And I feel ashamed of humanity because I need to write such obvious stuff.

"During a town hall with Fox News host Sean Hannity, a member of the audience asked Trump what he thought his biggest accomplishment as president was. Along with claiming his administration has saved a “tremendous number of lives,” the President rambled about the number of judges he’s appointed and his tax cuts. “So we’ve done a lot and we’re very proud of it and we had the best until this artificial problem ‘cause I call it an artificial problem,” Trump said. “We had to turn off our country to save millions of lives and now we’ve turned it back on,” he continued. “And it’s coming back much faster than anybody thought possible.”
