Eric Boehlert must read Ramona since she made identical points much more articulately here several days ago.
The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent
— Hanna Notte (@HannaNotte) February 29, 2024
Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

Location: U.S. Embassy and residential compounds
Events: Heavy gunfire is occuring around the area of the U.S. Embassy and residential compounds adjacent to the Trutier area of Tabarre. All Embassy personnel have been instructed to remain indoors and shelter-in-place until further notice. All others should avoid the area.
Actions to take:
- Avoid the area;
- Avoid demonstrations and any large gatherings of people;
- Do not attempt to drive through roadblocks; and
- If you encounter a roadblock, turn around and get to a safe area.

A mass expulsion of Afghan migrants could destabilize the region and fuel radicalization. The West should pressure Islamabad to change course.
All eyes on #Chad right now
Chad has two internet trunks coming into the country: One from the Red Sea via Sudan; the other from Cameroon. Not possible for the totality of the country's internet network to be shut unless done centrally. A lot of rumors swirling; few facts. https://t.co/N6bDJZ2ixO

It’s not about an UNRWA teacher who held an Israeli kid hostage in his house.
It’s all about how for 75 years you have destroyed the future of generations of Palestinians, including my family.

Imperialism for me but not for thee?
It's wild that Venezuela is now holding a vote on whether 2/3 of Guyana actually belongs to them! Analysts suggest that Modoru may want military action to pump up his sinking popularity.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tells Ryan Grim life in Congress ‘completely transformed’ after Democratic leader stepped down
"Both the AU and the intl community place more weight on whether elections are held than whether they are free and fair. Sanctions/expulsions occur when there is a coup but not necessarily when elections are rigged or if an “institutional coup” occurs." https://t.co/m9dNimJP0D

I almost hate to ask, but where's your link?
Happens all the time - Dag eats stuff somewhat arbitrarily.

For some reason, dag succeeds in sending me info that doesn't make it to the site. I've never figured out what's going on but need to spend more time on it.
In any case, I fixed Hal's link and text based on the email I received. It's actually quite gracious on Hal's part. Perhaps a historic intra-dag rapprochement is unfolding.
by Michael Wolraich on Tue, 02/09/2016 - 11:23pm
Perhaps. I'd like to think overtly asking for, and pointing out the missed link to, what might have been a Hal "standard" puts me on the path toward the rapprochement you mention. Maybe.
Two-way street, eh?

I think Ramona made good points about the media's undue focus on irrelevancies like whether Clinton "shouts". Bernie shouts all the time. Is sexism at work? Quite possibly. On the other hand, the corporate media would prefer to avoid focusing on the differences between the "pragmatist's" and the "socialist's" policy proposals, their calls to action, and their various political acts over time. Focusing on voice modulation, hair, clothes, as well as Sanders' age, and grumpy grandpa persona help accomplish this goal.
I thought I included the MM link when I posted. Not sure what happened there.

Not your fault, it's a dagblog bug
by Michael Wolraich on Wed, 02/10/2016 - 7:50pm
When it happens to me I just click the edit button and re-add the information that didn't make it past the bug.That's always worked for me and while a small annoyance it's not a big problem.

Very gracious of you, Hal. Thank you. I should tell you, though, I used Boehlert's article to prove a point in a comment battle a few minutes ago and, boy, did I piss that
persontroll off! That was fun! And all thanks to you, since I hadn't seen it before.by Ramona on Wed, 02/10/2016 - 8:11am
Glad to hear I'm not the only one you're pissing off ;-)
