"Another farmer, Muhamed, shared through tears at a recent seminar that every morning before he leaves for his fields, he says goodbye to his wife and children as though it might be the last time. This is because of the settlers. “Each day I fear I will not come home alive,” he told Palestinian and Israeli activists who stood with him. CfP activists Jamil and Sayel were there, and the weight of that daily fear hung heavy among everyone present." #Westbank

Your #AI "is an incredibly sophisticated form of pattern matching, so advanced that it can mimic the output of human reasoning for a narrow band of problems. But when tested in a controlled way, its fragility is exposed. It lacks the robust, generalizable, and symbolic logic that underpins true intelligence.

We’re seeing the limits of very expensive #autocomplete that breaks when it matters most."

Many people the Observer spoke to said they are now more afraid of famine than airstrikes. “Many times, I have had to give up my share of food for my son because of the severe shortages. It is the hunger that will kill me – a slow death,” said Hikmat al-Masri, a 44-year-old university lecturer from Beit Lahia in north #Gaza.

Genau soviel sind die Bekenntnisse zu #Diversität vieler Unternehmen wert:

Nichts.

Wer in den USA einknickt, hat es auch in Deutschland nie ernst gemeint.

"We, Palestinian and Israeli activists, call upon all sides to end the war and cease all forms of #violence, and most urgently, to stop the targeting of civilians.

Having taken part in this century-old violent #Conflict we know its price, and its futility. Today, more than any other time in the past, we maintain: there is no military solution to the conflict; violence breeds violence; revenge fuels revenge.

As Mahatma #Gandhi notably said: “An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.” That is exactly the situation right now with so many people drowning in pain and loss, and so many blinded by hatred and revenge.

Even in the heart of darkness, we will not lose sight of our path. Despite the violence, because of the violence, we hold on to our belief that both people can live in this land in safety, dignity, and liberty.

At this difficult time, we need to foster solidarity among those who are committed to #nonviolence, #humanrights justice, and our collective liberation. Let us stand alongside each other and speak our minds and hearts. Let our joint community and our collective actions define the road ahead.

In unity, we call upon all Israelis, Palestinians, as well as the international community not to give up on humanity and to respect the lives of all equally.

#CombatantsForPeace (3/x)
#Israel #Palestine

We urge both peoples to stand for life and to oppose ideologies of hate, discrimination, and supremacy that have led us all to destruction and death. We call for an end to the occupation which perpetuates this conflict, and for a real political solution promoted and supported by the international community.

Let us show the world that even now, there is another way. Even in the heart of darkness, there is still #hope."

About #CombatantsForPeace: "We are a group of Palestinians and Israelis who have taken an active part in the cycle of violence in our region: Israeli soldiers serving in the IDF and Palestinians as combatants fighting to free their country, #Palestine, from the #Israel:i occupation. We– serving our peoples, raised weapons which we aimed at each other and saw each other only through gun sights– have established Combatants for Peace on the basis of #nonviolence principles."

Today, movements, organizations and activists - #Jews and #Arabs - have published a joint declaration for #peace, calling (among other things) for a #ceasefire and negotiations for a political agreement.

Please help to share the declaration to make the voice of local activists heard and known!

"There are no winners in war. Only peace will bring security."

@feditips What are the advantages of using lists? What do people do with lists?
(happy you invited to ask questions even if they sound silly to oneself)
