Anduril co-founder Palmer Luckey announced his involvement with a new startup that will clone military working dogs, so I decided to take a brief look into the history of the military's animal programs.

Full on crisis underway in Israel as the military is pushing back on a Netanyahu order re Iran
אני מגבה באופן מוחלט את הרמטכ״ל על עמידתו על חובתו המקצועית. אסור לאפשר שום מהלך צבאי שאין מאחוריו צורך ביטחוני ברור, תכלית אסטרטגית ותוכנית פעולה אחראית. כשאזרחי ישראל ילכו אל הקלפי ביום שלישי הקרוב עליהם לזכור זאת: נתניהו מהווה איום ביטחוני על ישראל. הוא אינו מהסס להקריב את חיי ילדינו לשם הישרדותו ערב בחירות - את זה צה״ל מנסה לבלום. ביטחון ישראל נתון בידיו של דרג מדיני מושחת, אנשים בלתי כשירים ומטורפים שלא מהססים להקריב את ביטחון ישראל כדי לשמור על הכיסא. אנחנו ננצח. ואנחנו נחליף אותם ונחזיר את ישראל לדרך הביטחון והאחריות.

I can't get over this photo. It's the kind of thing that would launch a thousand schizo tracts in the 1990s and vindicate countless more in the years following. You'd see it on posters declaring Trump the Antichrist. Maybe the defining image of Trump II?

in a world of Jerrys be a George
Jason Alexander says he feared visiting Palestine as a Jew until 10 Palestinians protected him during an Israeli army raid in Ramallah “How much of a risk would I be taking as an American Jew walking into Palestinian cities? And Mohammed said, ‘The greatest dishonor that could happen to a religious Muslim is to allow harm to come to an invited guest’” “And he said, ‘Jason, if they had to, they’ll take a bullet for you.’ And what was so interesting about that trip is, we were having lunch in Ramallah with a bunch of actors and artists at a sort of outdoor restaurant” “And the Israeli army was conducting a raid on a bank that they thought had terrorist ties a couple blocks away. And they must have, to announce themselves, just shot into the air. And I remember 10 of those guys at the table surrounding me. And I went, ‘Oh my God, he wasn’t kidding. They’re not going to let me get hurt’”

Somehow, in certain quarters, it has come to be seen as a personal failing to devote one’s life to improving the world around you. It isn’t “downwardly mobile” to choose, after college, to be a teacher, a city councilor or an artist. It’s just a different kind of ambition.
