The AIC's declining health is of particular concern right now (and this should also be noted), but the main topic I wish to post about now is Gaza, where:
... it appears the first phase of the ceasefire plan (and there are questions about the details) has been agreed - see also here (Al Jazeera) and here (AP News) (live updates), and here (timeline from Al Jazeera), here (Reuters), here (AP News), here (ABC), here (also ABC), here (The Independent), here (Kyiv Independent), here (France 24), here (Democracy Now), here (Meidas Touch Network), and here ("behind the scenes" from France 24), copies of "the complete text of the agreement" from the Middle East Eye and Times of Israel, and Wikipedia, but see also this cautious opinion, which notes the asymmetric basis of the deal and the need for the Palestinian Authority to get its act sorted, and this examination of the consequences of this not being a peace agreement.
There is still a long way to go, but this is good cause for hope, IMO.
Possible flaws
Where I can, I will try to highlight possible flaws / issues you should consider:
- there may be flawed logical arguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan Myers’ free online course “Clear and Present Thinking”;
- I could be wrong - so keep your thinking caps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
