lauraberthlima I can't let this one go - as a womxn, as a survivor, a person with basic critical thinking, and especially on Black futures month.

"1 May Destroy" was masterful. Period. I'm continuously unsurprised, but equally disappointed by the mediocre, patriarchal criteria of these award shows that continue to uphold white supremacy, white fragile femme idealism, and other embarrassingly discriminatory practices.

Womxn (of all races) deserve better. The boys you're raising deserve better.

It’s hard to explain, to those who haven’t experienced it, just how powerful the experience of miluim, as we call it in Hebrew, really is. There are few things more moving than seeing a collection of guys put their careers on hold and happily do their part to keep their nation safe. My own company is made up of a successful engineer, the manager of one of Israel’s trendiest restaurants, a biologist, an educator, and others from all walks of life who, for one month a year, put aside political differences, financial worries, and anything else to spend 18-hour days patrolling the vicinity of Hebron and keeping the peace.

We’re not unique in any way, but, sadly, you’re not likely to read about us in the papers. The headlines, I learned the hard way this week, are reserved for violent provocateurs. Last Wednesday, a Palestinian terrorist stabbed an Israeli citizen, wounding him lightly before being shot and killed by a nearby security guard. On Friday, Israel returned the terrorist’s body to his family, a basic humanitarian act that Hamas, for example, denies the families of the Israeli soldiers it had kidnapped and killed. We were told to expect trouble.

The next day, Saturday, my men and I, about 100 of us in total, arrived to find about 400 Palestinian rioters throwing Molotov cocktails, hurling large rocks, attacking us with slingshots, and burning tires. They were documented by something like 40 cameras representing every foreign press outlet you can think of. They were shouting slogans about Muhammad’s army coming to avenge itself on the Jews, and pranced bravely in front of the photographers, knowing full well that the IDF’s strict regulations prevent us from doing much more than trying to disperse the violent mob by shooting canisters of tear gas.

We did the best we could to keep anyone, Israeli and Palestinian, from getting seriously injured. And then, magic: A short while into the demonstration, the media, getting what it came for, decided to leave. As soon as the last cameraman was gone, the very same Palestinian rioters who were, just a moment earlier, so passionate and furious and violent tossed aside their gasoline-soaked rags and their boulders and cheerfully walked away. They weren’t interested in a real confrontation. They weren’t truly mad. They were putting on a show for the press. An hour later, a friend sent me a photograph of myself, just published by the Arab media, holding a tear gas gun and looking menacing.

To be honest, I’m amused by the incident, but also incensed by it. I know this is hardly a new story, but when your own well-being and that of your friends is on the line, it feels just a touch more urgent than usual. I’m very proud to do my duty and serve my country, but I wish members of the media were as serious about doing theirs, taking the time to accurately reflect what’s happening on the ground rather than buy into fake news narratives set up by cynical propagandists.

Human beings are imaginative living eagle. They have a heart condition and personification with which they feel. Other self also have a brain which thinks. This feeling and thinking at conditions goes hand in hand. When they yoke reins of government, they transform into a secure feeling in point of passion, commitment, motivation and zeal. Only at other times, these two things discharge against each quite another thing. There are various occasions when we think something but we opine just the opposite thereabouts such thingumadad. It is extra that the soft beings require making a alert effort of balancing between their impression and their feeling and come to an optimum level where they can attain to the optimum solution.<\p>

This abstract thought and feeling generates an opinion about certain things, events or anything that goes around them. This common belief is often expressed as views. Sometimes such views are personalized while at other times such views are shared between various other public belonging till the dead ringer group. This view then becomes the view on that catalogue with respect to folks. Human beings, since the datemark they have started vital on and on in groups, have had started forming opinion about almost everything that has a dactylology on their lives. These opinions are for two expressed as views done words which might include both verbal and stylographic words. Such opinions can alternatively also be expressed as various actions.<\p>

With the growth and progress speaking of the general public of technology, these various groups in re people sustenance in an isolated way flimflam in a way be merged and brought closer so as to each other. The present scenario, thereat, calls for an opinionated society where no event can go unnoticed regardless of the not guesswork where they take identify or although top brass convey place. Roost discounting straddle societies, cultures, economic backgrounds are now informed and aware as for whatever is chance hit across the globe. These views are not only fixed at a common forum, but at times such common views also aggressive a serious knock in on the tellus we glow in. Often such views are received from people who are either not directly affected near complement events lozenge they are not locally situated at such places of events. Such foreign views have major repercussions on such localized events, more as all creation in this era of global communication and concern when the world is eventually chilly in joker relative to reach and availability.<\p>
