I made a zine! It's dedicated to Palestinian folklore and folk religion. This first issue is the folktale 'The Promise Kept' which comes from Gaza.
It's available for your own set price, or free if you like!

Report
The agreement between 14 Palestinian factions has declared an interim national unity government for the West Bank & Gaza.
It will be composed of leaders from all 14 Palestinian entities & will govern after the war until elections are held.
It is committed to the creation of a Palestinian state on lands Israel captured in the 1967 Middle East war.
~Mustafa Barghouti, Palestinian National Initiative
If, like many people, you are still trying to process the horrific attack on the Nuseirat refugee camp, on top of the many other massacres that apartheid Israel has committed, I suggest the below video. Palestinians sharing the beauty and their memories of Gaza.
It features Australian-based Palestinian playwright Samah Sabawi reading a poem, and her artist son Nahed Elrayes, and father Abdul Karim Sabawi, a well known poet. Along with Palestinian photographer Suhail Nassar, and Irish surf film-maker Andrew McConnell.
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free
… the Danish police.
I can 100 percent understand the frustration expressed by some students.
In my view, The Danish Government has turned a blind eye to the genocide, and the weapons trade with Israel has continued during the terrible operation in Gaza.
It is now 241 days, since the Gaza war began. That is 241 days were EU countries could have sanctioned the Israeli government, and put the trade on hold, etc.
But to this day, the war continues.

Here's a half-formed thought I need to mull a bit on:
Somehow, algorithmic (and especially "AI-driven") decision making tends to only be proposed in contexts where it can only — or mostly — affect those with the least power in the system.
Migrants and asylum seekers.
Prisoners.
Families using any form of state support (child benefits, foodstamps, etc).
Palestinians in Gaza.
It somehow never gets proposed for use-cases where it might affect the wealthy and powerful.
One wonders why. 🤔

If someone talks like a Nazi and behaves like a Nazi they’re almost certainly a Nazi.
“A leaked document written by Gila Gamaliel, the Israeli intelligence minister, came to light in late October amid the devastating war in Gaza.
It set out a proposal to relocate the residents of Gaza to Sinai (Egypt) as a solution “which will produce positive long-term strategic results”.”
A ‘final solution’ if you will.
It’s time for Israel as an experiment in religious delusion to end
