Robert Reich cites Orit Kamir, whose mother was starved in the Lvov ghetto in Poland under Nazi occupation, but who survived starvation while seeing others die from it:
"The Israeli public's silence is a betrayal not only of the entire world of values it claims to hold; it is an absolute betrayal of Holocaust victims, in whose name we demanded a state for ourselves where we could ensure our existence."

"Famine did not come to Gaza as an inevitable side effect of war. It came because of a decision in March by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to block international agencies from delivering aid."

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said Tuesday he's issuing draft plans to overturn the agency's 2009 scientific finding that greenhouse gases threaten human health and welfare — a move guaranteed to spark litigation.
Why it matters: It's President Trump's most direct effort to rip out climate regulations root and branch — and make it harder for a successor to impose new ones.

in reply to BrianKrebs • • •@briankrebs The late Dan Kaminsky once said (paraphrasing): every vulnerability researcher thinks their bug is the best bug that ever did bug.
I like to see a vendor at least acknowledge bugs and make some kind of a plan. Even if it's "we'll patch it on our next annual release" that's fine.
