Today in Labor History June 9, 1843: Bertha von Suttner was born (d. 1914). She was an Austrian journalist, author, peace activist and Nobel Prize laureate. She was also a friend of Alfred Nobel, who famously told her that there would not be world peace until a weapon was invented that was so deadly it could annihilate countries in seconds. Some say that it was her activism and advocacy that inspired him to include a peace prize as part of his endowment. Von Suttner wrote “Lay Down Your Arms,” an anti-war novel that made her a leading figure in the Austrian peace movement. However, it was also considered a feminist novel for its characters resistance to accepting traditional gender roles. Tolstoy compared her favorably with Harriet Beecher Stowe.

In a sane world, Israel would decommission their #apocalypse bombs or their targets would have their own nuclear deterrent

If these deals were remotely reasonable we'd be ARMING Palestine!
If Israel want a defenceless #Palestine the absolute bare minimum should be #Israel getting rid of the weapons of mass destruction and allowing inspections to confirm they've done it!

@auschwitzmuseum : Horrible.
As is the fact that my grandfather's relatives, all Jews, were killed in gas chambers.
My grandpa was sent to a working camp in the province of Drenthe (and survived the war) because he was married to a Dutch woman.
Now there is a new concentration camp called #gaza - and criticizing Israel for its conduct is deliberatly called antiSemitism - which, in *my* dictionary, means prejudiced hatred of, and rethorical and/or violent actions against, *ARBITRARY* Jews. This prejudiced hatred of *any* Jew, regardless of opinions, religion, background, skin color, age, etc. led to the Holocaust.
Abusing the term antiSemitism for any criticism regarding the genocide that Israel commits now (extremely exceeding numbers i.r.t. "an eye for an eye") implies ridiculization, and even denial, of the #Holocaust.
I fail to understand why, notably the descendants of Jews who suffered in #WW2, now justify killing more than 13.000 children and ignore or deny (copied from https://www.unicef.org/press-releases/stories-loss-and-grief-least-17000-children-are-estimated-be-unaccompanied-or ):
"At least 17,000 children are estimated to be unaccompanied or separated from their parents in the Gaza Strip".
Last week I wrote "diff Auschwitz Gaza" in Dutch (see https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/112189585169136089).
I'll try to translate that below:
————
diff Auschwitz Gaza
(Auschwitz = A, Gaza = G)
/!\ Supply:
A: Mostly daily
G: Plenty of stock (option: from the West Bank)
== Escape possibilities::
A+G: None (high fence, immediately shooting guards)
== Conduct of guards:
A+G: Relentless; rape, torture, theft of possessions
== Independent supervision:
A+G: None (access by independent watchers and reporters is prohibited; "Israeli parliament passes law paving the way for Al Jazeera closure"
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/1/israeli-pm-netanyahu-revives-push-to-shut-down-al-jazeera )
/!\ Agony:
A: Of short duration for nost (killed using toxic gas), otherwise forced labour and exhaustion, no communication with the outside world (hoping to be rescued)
G: Varies, usually long lasting, partially with serious injuries, exhaustion, occasional communication with the ouside world (realizing that the most of the world does *not* care about you in any way)
== Basic necessities:
A+G: Hardly any water and foodl; dehydration (G: summer is on its way), starvation, no medicaments, no sanitary means and provisions
/!\ Roof:
A: Barracks
G: DiY (without money, no DiY shops and no airco)
== Tasks:
A+G: Scraping together food and throw dead bodies in mass graves

https://www.972mag.com/gaza-war-arms-companies/
the company’s CEO, Michal Mor, framed Israel’s war on #Gaza, which has killed almost 30,000 Palestinians, as a sales boost. “This is the finest hour of the #defense #industries,” Mor said.
This optimism about Israel’s military-technological prowess was strikingly out of sync with the failure of Israel’s military apparatus on October 7. For years, military heads have married Israeli military strategy to speculative futures, promising that better weapons and surveillance technologies would provide more security down the line… Military tech is, after all, one of the few industries that seems to thrive off geopolitical instability.

+972 Magazine · Gaza war offers the ultimate marketing tool for Israeli arms companiesAs investors worldwide drop cash on Israeli start-ups for 'battle-tested' weapons, defense tech CEOs are poised to be the war’s only victors.
#Israel continues slaughtering #Noncombatants in #Gaza.
Why?
#WeaponsOfMassDestruction, #NuclearBombs, effective missile systems, runways with bombers lined up, artillery?
What weapons are Israel slaughtering civilians to get to?
Grenades? Assault rifles? Pistols? Suicide bomber vests?
How many Israelis have been killed or injured by Hamas rockets in the last 5 years?
How many since the IDF focussed on Gaza after October 7?
And Hamas was a mystery and these werent a problem before 7th Oct?
The wife and I saw #OPPENHEIMER today on #IMAX.
Great #film of course. In many ways brilliant. In other ways somewhat pedestrian, but never boring. The cast is also outstanding. In regards to some themes I was left wanting, but overall truly enjoyed it.

Seeing it on IMAX is certainly worth it if you can.
