It is an empty pledge until all nations make it. All brains must be well fed. We can build any society/selves we choose. DNA is behaviorally cheap. Peace. UBI.

Global pettiness does not match the gravity of the fact that homo sapiens are the only known intelligence.
As a species, we should try just a little harder for safety, happiness, and exploration.

Most of these atrocities will go uninvestigated or unprosecuted. Only the ones that are caught on camera will force the Israelis to feel like they have to "handle" it.

The US government does not engage in diplomacy. They engage in narrative framing, smear tactics, and moral washing of allies immorality.
NEW: Today, the UN Security Council sent a clear message to Hamas:
Accept the ceasefire-hostage deal on the table.
Israel has already accepted this deal.
The fighting could stop today – and hostages could come home today – if Hamas agreed to the deal.
