I tried that before, but was unsuccessful in clearing out metadata. Whatever options I tried, PDF-to-PDF just output an identical file with a different name.

It’s a multi step process, but if you still have the XPS Viewer from windows 10, you can ‘print’ the file to XPS, then open it in the XPS Viewer and ‘print’ to PDF using your favourite print to pdf solution. That strips the metadata but doesn’t rasterize everything.

This has nothing to do with Nicaragua taking Germany to the ICJ for the latter’s complicity in Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian population.

This also has nothing to do with Nicaragua winning a case in the ICJ against the US (1986) for its arming of Contra rebels and mining Nicaraguan ports, and the US just ignoring the result.

Surely it’s about ‘migrants’.

It would be doable, only after the dismantlement of the apartheid regime, the establishment of a unitary secular state for all citizens, the full right of return of all Palestinian refugees and their descendants, and just compensation for their losses. Otherwise, it’s more Zionist bleating.

Can’t have freedom of the press holding a mirror to settler colonialism, now, can we?

This is it. The proposed resolution didn’t call for a ceasefire. The weasel words fooled nobody.

Repeating debunked Zionist propaganda does not make it true. But please, tell me more about the ‘base of operations’ with the doctors’ weekly calendar as the ‘Smoking gun’.

If world trade bypasses US-dominated institutions, then the only leverage the Americans have is their military. And that doesn’t bode well for civilian rule.

Terrorist, noun, Definition: Any person or group the United States government doesn’t like.

“…and then the native Americans left, to make room for the settlers” Yeah, that’s exactly how it happened.

Check with your local city council or municipality. The laws preventing municipally owned Internet are being fought and overturned with Internet As A Utility.

Even in Texas, the City of Mont Belvieu was getting the shaft by local incumbents that wouldn’t invest in the network. The city took them to court and sidestepped the law, setting precedent. Fiber to the home is now a reality there.

I’m working on getting the same thing done in other towns and cities in this state. Might be a great challenge if you’re up for that sort of thing.

Palestinians in the occupied West Bank were shot by Israelis on Friday, one by soldiers and the other by settlers, the Palestinian health ministry said.

Late Friday it announced the death of Qusai Jamal Maatan, 19, saying he was "shot dead by settlers in the village of Burqa", east of Ramallah.

There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military.

Earlier, soldiers had shot dead another young Palestinian.

In a statement, the Palestinian health ministry said 18-year-old Mahmoud Abu Saan was "killed this morning by live bullets from the occupation (Israel) in Tulkarm".
