Pro-Palestinian protest outside LA synagogue criticized as "antisemitic" after street fights with pro-Israel protesters | CNN

Synagogue hosted Israel real estate event

The protest stemmed from an Israel real estate event on Sunday at the Adas Torah synagogue, according to the synagogue’s security director and social media posts from organizers.

The event at the synagogue was organized by My Israel Home, a firm that markets real estate in Israel and West Bank settlements and was advertising on social media. CNN has reached out to My Israel Home for comment.

I’d rather be having bros autistically obsessing over supply lines and infrastructure than the ww2 borders of a fascist yugoslavia. Map painting games, city builders, and political sims all push the same dopamine button in the brain. You give a dude a map of earth and tell him to build communism on it and he will spend the next twenty four hours arguing with similar nerds in a forum about entirely fictional models of resource deposits in Africa being entirely unbalanced. Let’s focus the analytical mind towards coming up with highly unrealistic plans for managing the global economy than making war.

There was the shocking discovery of a strange unidentified object that was orbiting Jupiter (and it was covered in a round pink cloud to indicate how hidden it was). Many believed it was a moon that we just never noticed in the entire history of studying the solar system. The whole mood of it was actually kinda eerie because we don't know what that thing is about. Also we were thinking "Life? is there life on this new moon?" and so scientists sent a probe to it to find out what it was but it won't reach there for a few days.

So I was walking around and I guess I woke up into another dream and I spoke to one of my high school teachers about it and he was like "whoa really that's crazy" and I was like "nah that's only a dream" except not really the Jupiter moon plot had not been lost yet. (Also I was disappointed when I gradually grew conscious enough to realize this was a dream I legitimately thought we found something special here.)

The shocking twist is that that was not a moon at all, it was in fact some sort of massive space station or facility that's the size of a planet or moon. "We didn't build that." This could only have been built by alien lifeforms, but how long has it been there? Some thoughts crop up such as "the government wouldn't allow people to know about this" and stuff but that ends up not really mattering, because we go to the station and for some reason I was in the group that was headed there. We found a very well-maintained lab, but were only greeted with killer security robots and I guess we dealt with them? I dunno. Despite this place looking well-maintained, there was no organic life to speak of. Yep, even in a dream there was no organic life in space.

Anyways it's time to drop that plot entirely and teleport back to Earth, where there's a zombie apocalypse now for no fucking reason, but it's also not really important. There was a family guy skit where a bunch of people step on a trap and everyone runs and steps on more traps which causes a lot of explosions and bodily harm. And then they all get injured but practically give a thumbs up as if they were okay. They were not okay. I attempt to use the powers of teleportation to go back home where i have three fans on simultaenously. That's it. Man it sure is a shame that we did not explore that fucking space facility near Jupiter any further. Shame we couldn't learn more about it. Fuck you dream.

Day 1 of posting a wikipedia article. Also final day of posting a wikipedia article, unless I will post a wikipedia article on another day.

Hog calling lmao

America's new generation gap: Young voters say they'll inherit a more challenging world. But will they vote in it? - CBS News

Rant. A fucking Newsweek article didn't give a link to the poll. I had to google. God, do I hate that.

I had a friend post his channel and say that he likes his content. I know that youtube history is often an alt right pipeline, so im wondering if anyone else has looked into this guy? I dont see anyone really calling him out online but he might just be not popular.

I can watch the videos myself and come up with an opinion but theyre over 2 hours long so id rather not.

My only yellow flag so far is that he has a book with 88 in the name. But thats not enough proof for me.

Jailed gay soldier: ‘Return of cap badge is a proud moment and it has given me closure’

Veteran talks of his pride and says he would now encourage any young gay person to join the Army

A former member of the Armed Forces who was jailed for kissing a fellow serviceman in the 1980s has become one of the first gay veterans to have his ceremonial cap badge returned to him.

Stephen Close, 61, was court-martialled, discharged with disgrace, imprisoned and placed on the sex offenders register for having a relationship with a fellow soldier.

Earlier this week, he was invited to the Royal Fusiliers’ regimental headquarters at the Tower of London to re-receive his military cap and badge, 40 years after his discharge.

Mr Close, from Salford, Greater Manchester, said: “It was a proud moment for me. It took a lifetime, but it came and it has given me closure.”

Mr Close was stationed in Berlin in 1983 when he became romantically engaged with a fellow male soldier after a night out. However, they were seen by a colleague who reported them. Restoring cap badges to discharged service personnel was among the recommendations made by an LGBT independent veterans review

He said he was questioned by the Greater Manchester Police and swabbed for a DNA sample before being paraded around the base in front of his colleagues. He was then charged for gross indecency, jailed for six months, and discharged from the Army.

Mr Close and his boyfriend served their time in separate prisons and never saw each other again. While in prison, he was forced to wear a red ribbon to mark him out to guards and fellow inmates.

“In Nazi Germany, gays had to wear pink triangles, I had to wear a red ribbon,” he said.

“I suffered with anxiety for a long time. It was frustrating really, it took a toll on my mental health. It wasn’t just the court case, it was the total abandonment from my military mates, who knew who I was. That hurt.”

Homosexuality was decriminalised in 1967, but it remained an offence in the Armed Forces until 1994. A ban on homosexuals serving in the British military was not lifted until 2000.

Following Mr Close’s release from prison, he remained on the sex offenders register and was unable to work with children or vulnerable people until he was given a royal pardon in 2013 – the same year that Alan Turing, the mathematician and code-breaker, was posthumously pardoned by Queen Elizabeth II. ‘Too ashamed’

Restoring cap badges to discharged service personnel was among the recommendations made by an LGBT independent veterans review last year.

Mr Close said that for years he had felt “too ashamed” to attend Remembrance events and had found it too painful to attend regimental reunions.

He said: “There were a lot of people in the room that day that came in after the ban was lifted.

“My battalion has been quite proud to recruit LGBT recruits to demonstrate they’re openly accepting of gay people. I would encourage any young gay person to join the Army now, but it’s taken a while. Even a few years after the ban was lifted, I wouldn’t have, but I would now.

“People are accepting it more now, eventually it will just become the norm. It’s a good thing.”
