“The Shame of Israeli Medicine”: How Israeli Doctors Turned on Palestinian Colleagues & Patients https://youtu.be/sDwd4cSMiTA via #YouTube

In Nazi-occupied Europe during the Second World War, the resistance would freak the fascists out by secretly painting the "V" symbol everywhere: on roads, on walls, carved into stone etc. If a Nazi entered a bar, someone would tap under the table with V in morse code. The Nazis had no idea who was doing it and they couldn't arrest the whole bar.

"...the (Nazi) occupier, by seeing this sign, always the same, infinitely repeated, (would) understand that he is surrounded, encircled by an immense crowd of citizens eagerly awaiting his first moment of weakness, watching for his first failure."

"Lawmakers want to crack down on college students' pro-Palestinian protests so badly that they literally passed a prohibition on talking," Jimena Pinzon and FPF's Caitlin Vogus write in the Houston Chronicle.

Israeli forces have conducted demolitions for the third consecutive day in the Palestinian refugee camp of Tulkarm in the northern part of the West Bank, the site of military operations since January.

On Sunday, Israeli bulldozers resumed demolition of numerous residential buildings in the camp. The demolitions are part of the destruction plan of 58 structures in Tulkarm and 48 in the Nur Shams refugee camp.

The most despicable, most meanspirited and most deplorable faction of the alt-right deplorables are Netanyahu, the IDF terrorists, the Hasbara murderers of truth and the civil society of Israel that tolerates them.

#DigitalSovereignty is at the top of the political agenda, finally, that's good. But strange things (or not so much) are happening.

Like this one: The Luxembourg gov is moving to Google Distributed Cloud, see https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/luxembourg-govt-launches-sovereign-cloud/ and it is framed as "sovereign".

The Dutch minister for Digital Affairs (outgoing) is so inspired and might follow.

But wait a minute: a managed cloud service by Google, how much sovereignty does that give to you?

Seems more like a case of #SovereigntyWashing
