Benjamin Moser, author of Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History, told Rashid Khalidi that his 80-year-old mother, who had all but called him a Hamas member, apologized after reading his book: “I’m ashamed I ever said I was a Zionist.” His book traces Jewish opposition to Zionism over the past century and challenges their exclusion in discussions over Palestine. “No, you don’t get to set the rules anymore. We’re setting the rules now,” Moser said. Khalidi added that he had never seen so many people change their views so rapidly, noting that major publishers are now embracing books on Palestine that would have been virtually unpublishable just three or four years ago.

I will say this- again. In a safety critical 'industry' like healthcare? Lesser trained staff usage-at scale-will cause harm. You will 'get away with it' a lot of times. Yet all it needs is 'one miss'. And the higher training reduces the chance of that 'one' - it's what training is all about. If you don't understand that? You fail safety issues And you fail as an educator and trainer. Thank you @JanetEastham for continuing to raise the issue. The irony? Every single person responsible for such decisions regards 'what the public can have' - reaches out to a doctor when they need help for their loved one. 'Cake for me. None for you.'
Dylan Cope died after an A&E nurse practitioner mistook his abdominal pain for flu, having ignored his GP’s referral for suspected appendicitis. His family thought she was a doctor. A coroner found he would have survived had a senior doctor examined him. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10…

Peter Oborne on the West Bank: "It is a horrific, racist project to drive out Palestinians... 65 of [the Bedouins'] communities have been destroyed in the last three years... The fact that we, the democratic, human rights-respecting West, is tolerating this horror is extraordinary."

חגיגות מתחילות הערב בבלגרד אחרי שהשליט השנוא, אלכסנדר וויצ׳יץ׳, הודה לפני שעתיים בהפסד אחרי 12 שנה של שלטון מושחת וחסר עכבות. אחוז ההצבעה בסרביה היה היסטורי, גבוה ב-12% מהבחירות הקודמות ב-2023! הציבור יצא החוצה כמו משוגע כדי להעיף רודן! צאו להצביע! 🗳️

“It's people who have to come first. And that's what we expect from this upcoming budget.” Addressing UNISON Disabled Members' Conference, @AndreaEganGS called for investment to rebuild public services and restore wages, paid for by a tax on the wealthiest and on banks.

"The notion of a 'Minsky moment' has helped restore financial instability to macroeconomics, but it has also encouraged a narrowing of Minsky." New paper from Riccardo Bellofiore. levyinstitute.org/wp-content…
Thirty years ago today, the great economist Hyman Minsky passed away. It was Minsky who first set me on the path toward Post-Keynesian economics. Within mainstream economics, he is best known for his Financial Instability Hypothesis. Yet his theoretical legacy extends far beyond it. Building on Keynes and Kalecki, Minsky developed a comprehensive understanding of how a capitalist economy functions, in which price and profit formation, investment, financing, and the dynamics of debt are understood as interconnected processes.

.@Neal_Compass: "I couldn't live on the meagre benefits people are getting. To suggest that we have to cut those.. actually that's where the engine of growth is, that's the people who spend.. how do you get people out spending.. not by cutting benefits of people at the bottom"

🔴 Brasil 🇧🇷 La derecha intentó un golpe electoral impidiendo que el transporte llegara a zonas de voto lulista. Sin embargo, la increíble movilización física y en redes permitió una remontada impresionante. Lo de @LulaOficial, guerrero del pueblo, es increíble, histórico.

Tous les sondages le voyaient perdant au 2e tour. À 80 ans, grâce à une belle campagne et un élan populaire, il a déjoué les pronostics. Cette remontada face à l’extrême droite brésilienne est magnifique ! Bravo et merci @LulaOficial ❤️🇧🇷

A lot of "mental health issues" disappear when bills are paid, rent is secure, and the fridge is full. Peace is expensive. And pretending money doesn't affect mental health is privilege.

בכל העולם מסקרים את הענישה הקולקטיבית המשוגעת של צה״ל בחברון. את הגירוש וההרס של בתים של פלסטינים חפים מפשע. ובישראל הכתבים הצבאיים: ״צה״ל אמר לנו שזה לא ענישה קולקטיבית אז זה לא״ זאת הרמה של המידע שמגיע לאזרחים הישראלים
Israeli soldiers forced Palestinian families from their homes in Hebron in the occupied West Bank overnight Friday, taking control of the properties, marking houses with X signs and hanging Israeli flags from balconies. Troops also blocked roads and closed a nearby checkpoint, restricting movement in the neighborhood as the military expanded its presence in the area. The operation followed an attack Friday in which two Palestinian gunmen killed two Israeli soldiers and wounded three others before being shot dead by Israeli forces. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had threatened a major military offensive following the attack.
