Netanyahu has lost the Israeli elections again. That’s quite a shock. Might be the first elections the left has won since Brexit (the only acceptation being the Danish elections earlier this year). No party will have the majority required to form a government. There’ll be a lot of behind the scenes negotiations.

Am I right Gantz wants a secular government? That'd be by definition a step forward..

Trump is going to attempt to take away California’s right to make environmental regulations. He’s really trying to poke the bear. In terms of state politics, California is 70% Democratic, 20% Republican, %5 Libertarian, 2% Green (a lot higher, but many Greens vote as democrats), and then small minorities of Peace and Freedom and American Socialist parties.

And now a commercial that won’t change anything, but accurately describes how all American students feel. Great job to the directors, one of the best satire PSAs I’ve seen in a long time.

Will this be a "rematch" of Cyrus the Great taking the Neo-Babilonian Empire in 539 BC or Caliph Uthman conquering Fars and Khorasan in 650-651?  :D

Just kidding, nobody likes wars. I hope we won't get there.

Let’s just hope it doesn’t end with the sacking of Jerusalem or the fall of Rome :p
