From what I've read, it seems Israeli citizens fear the Hannibal Directive (originally about killing their own soldiers rather than letting them be taken hostage) is secretly being applied to civilian hostages. It was supposed to have been retired several years ago, but there are accusations from within Israel it was implemented on Oct 7th (for the portion of people killed by the IDF), and possibly for all the Israeli hostages that have been killed so far by the IDF in separate incidents.

And apparently also the undead threat -- 16 cemeteries bulldozed, per CNN.

Not any more so than the babies left to die in unpowered incubators after that gunpoint hospital evacuation.

AKA Revisionist Zionism.

And what a coincidence-- Bibi just so happens to come from a family that ascribes to that specific variant of Zionism!

How thoughtful! They know you'll be needing some of their companionship during your trip, even if only in the form of fur left behind.

It seems your presence is needed for an impromptu floof inspection.

I'm Gen X and not a fan of chat abbreviations but I was mostly just lost on "bussin'" (so I looked it up on Urban Dictionary). Not sure if "I vibe it" is like a form of "vibing" or more like "I'm feeling it" (or something else) though.

JFK also wanted to shut down the CIA and was critical of Israel.

I don't think the poster was blaming tech for the problems that resulted. The intent seemed to be to point out that these ventures weren't so innovative as popular media would have had us believe until recently. Plenty of blame to go around for the companies' exploitative practices, for media that just repeats what's in the press release/ads uncritically, and for government regulators, as well.

Interesting. I thought it was just the US and Canada where AirBnb was messing up housing for new buyers (as well as taking away options from renters).

It's probably intended for family road trips (or just kids in general).
