If we don't acknowledge the crimes of our kin in all their painful truth, then we do a disservice to their victims living and dead. But if we let people paint them as monsters who did monstrous things─things we believe we would never do─then we perpetuate a different but no less dangerous lie.

-Arenvald Lentinus, Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker, "Laying the Past to Rest" (Healer Role Quests), on dehumanizing those who collaborated with the enemy and the range of victimization and sins that entails.

Hamas has admitted that its hostage guards were given new orders after the rescue back in June, and threatens the death of more hostages if Israel tries to rescue them. But we're supposed to believe that they didn't execute these ones?

Basically: "No, we totally didn't murder these people, but we will if you try to rescue any more, and we're basically admitting we planned this for months, but we totally didn't do it this time."

Its a lie so contemptibly transparent that it probably qualifies as performative- a lie not really mean to deceive, but simply to flaunt the liar's contempt for the truth and their ability to do so with impunity, as another form of abuse to the victims.

Except that it will undoubtably be readily believed by many Hamas apologists. Except that I don't really think that a lot of those people are fooled either. They know what Hamas did, and they're glad, because six more Israelis are dead, and their loved ones and community are grieving. Like many Holocaust deniers, they deny not because they believe it did not happen, but because they know it did, they're glad it did, and they want it to happen again.

Hamas and its allies, backers, apologists, and lapdogs deserve nothing but contemptuous laughter, and swift justice. That justice may have to be delayed, for the sake of saving innocent lives, both Israeli and Palestinian. It may have to be pursued by more subtle routes. But it will come for them in the end, I do not doubt.

This is not a politician.

This is a collaborator.

Hello, would you mind explaining what a collaborator is in Detective Conan context? It's been mentioned a few times but I don't really understand what the relationship agreement entails, it sounds like a criminal consultant/confidential informant but not quite. Are there rules or an actual contract? What does Kaito have to do for Zero and vice versa?

It's mostly confidential information... but...

A collaborator is someone who can provide information to their client, legally or otherwise, in exchange for payment.

Whether there's a contract or not is completely dependent on the collaborator and client's agreement, on their own terms.

In Kaito’s case, he can get the information Zero wants in exchange for the information Kaito wants... a little chocolate doesn't hurt either.

CNN made a deal with Trump not to fact-check the debate, and did not disclose this in advance.

Also, I 100% agree with this proposal.

I felt all along that there should be no debates, because Trump is an illegitimate candidate who should not even be on the ballot, much less normalized, and because giving him a platform, or putting him in a room with the President, is a national security risk.

After the first debate, I feared that Biden now had no choice but to debate Trump again as planned, as refusing would make it look like an admission that he couldn't handle it.

But this is perfect.

Simply require fact-checking as a condition of Biden's participation.

The host network can't reasonably refuse that- not without effectively admitting that they're partisans deliberately enabling Trump's lies and deception of the public.

At worst, we get a fact-checked debate.

At best, Trump refuses to participate, and then that's on him.

Edit: In that event, Biden could as an alternative hold town halls, taking questions directly from the public.

Two Palestinians were murdered in the city of Tulkarm and another was murdered in Jenin in the West Bank on Friday under suspicion of spying for Israel.

Many people had either participated or watched the event and took very graphic photos and videos documenting the murder, which can be seen on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The two that were murdered in Tulkarm are 31-year-old Hamza Mabarech and 29-year-old Azzam Joabra, according to N12.

A Palestinian mob can be seen in the videos abusing the bodies and hanging them on an electric pole as crowds surrounded the area, screaming "You traitors!" N12 reported.

Hamas's statement on the murders

Hamas's military wing in the West Bank published a hard document of the two Palestinians who were executed, which was later revealed to have been done by a firing squad, KAN reported.
