U.S. Senators Introduce Legislation to Counter UN Actions Against Israel
That book has been de-bunked by equally respected professors and academics. The former National Director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Abraham H. Foxman, wrote a book called The Deadliest Lies: The Israel Lobby and the Myth of Jewish Control . In the foreword, former U.S. Secretary of State George Shultz wrote: "... the notion. U.S. policy on Israel and Middle East is the result of their influence is simply wrong." https://www.publishersweekly.com/978-1-4039-8492-0 Alan Dershowitz (Harvard) included an extensive rebuttal of the "lobbgy conspiracy theory" in he Case Against Israel's Enemies: Exposing Jimmy Carter and Others Who Stand in the Way of Peace. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-case-against-israels-ene mies-alan-dershowitz/1100296923 Benny Morris, considered a leading academic expert on the Israel-Palestine conflict and author of several books on the topic, wrote, "Like many pro-Arab propagandists at work today, Mearsheimer and Walt often cite my own books, sometimes quoting directly from them, in apparent corroboration of their arguments. Yet their work is a travesty of the history that I have studied and written for the past two decades. Their work is riddled with shoddiness and defiled by mendacity." http://webarchive.loc.gov/all/20060719232227/https://ssl.tnr.com/p/docsub.mhtml?i%3D20060508%26s%3Dmorris050806 Robert C. Lieberman (Columbia) wrote: ""It is quite clear that the book’s argument does not support Mearsheimer and Walt’s central contention, that the existence and activities of an Israel lobby are the primary causes of American policy in the Middle East. The claim is supported neither by logic nor evidence nor even a rudimentary understanding of how the American policymaking system works" "The 'Israel Lobby' and American Politics" https://www.jstor.org/stable/40406928 -

Who's Gonna Win The Tyson Fight?
I told you he was a Geek. However, credit where credit is due...because.... His analysis is usually quite sound. He was right about the Word_Salad Woman, for example. Also, he is a HUGE fan of irony. The shirts he wears are a joke. And, he enjoys his own brand of humor. Some viewers enjoy his dry humor, but it's not for everyone. Still, he can't be worse than Tyson, and probably much better. -

Thai Tesla driver admits reckless driving after argument - video
Driver's Reckless Overtaking on Expressway Leads to Sedan Seizure Picture courtesy: AMARIN TV A tense scene unfolded on the Si Rat expressway when a motorist, Mr Pitiphat Kanchanaphanurat, displayed reckless driving behaviour that resulted in the seizure of his sedan and a significant penalty. Captured on video by a Facebook user, known as "Buffalo of the Road V1", Mr Pitiphat's white Tesla was seen cutting in front of vehicles from both the left and right sides, raising concerns among fellow drivers. On November 19, the Dusit Provincial Court handed down a suspended one-month jail sentence, reducing it from two months due to his confession. Mr Pitiphat, whose driver’s licence had expired, was also fined a total of 7,000 baht, including 5,000 baht for his driving offence and 2,000 baht for the expired licence. Additionally, his driving privileges have been suspended for six months, and he is required to fulfill a year-long probation that includes community service and regular reporting to authorities. His defence highlighted the stress induced from a personal disagreement with his girlfriend, which led to the reckless driving incident. This dispute was notably over GPS directions, adding to Mr Pitiphat's frustration on the road. The court's decision to seize his Tesla reflects a stern stance against endangering public safety on the expressway. While Mr Pitiphat expressed a desire to meet and apologise to the affected parties, these attempts have reportedly been met with refusal. This incident serves as a reminder of the critical importance of responsible driving, especially on high-speed expressways where safety must be a priority. The authorities' action underscores their commitment to enforcing road safety laws and discouraging hazardous driving practices, reported Thai Newsroom. -- 2024-11-20- 1

UK Faces Diplomatic Tightrope Amid Potential Trade War
Britain may align with the European Union in any global trade dispute ignited by former U.S. President Donald Trump’s potential return to the White House, suggested Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds. Highlighting the UK's close trading ties with the EU, Reynolds underscored the need to balance relations with Brussels against pressures from Washington. Trump has reportedly considered imposing hefty tariffs of up to 60% on Chinese goods and up to 20% on imports from other nations, a move experts warn could spark a global trade war. European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde has cautioned that such geopolitical shifts place the single market under significant strain. Speaking to the House of Lords International Agreements Committee, Reynolds addressed the implications for Britain: "Tariffs on UK goods entering the U.S. would be a difficult thing for us to contend with. The U.S. is a key trading partner with £300 billion in bilateral trade. But compared to the EU, with over £800 billion in trade, we would have to weigh the consequences of actions that risk our relationship with Europe." Reynolds also noted the UK’s heightened vulnerability in a trade confrontation with China due to its global trade dependencies. "If there were a broader trade conflict between China and the West, the UK, as a globally oriented trading nation, would face more pain than the U.S. Simply replicating policies proposed by other nations might be more damaging to us than many realize," he said. His remarks come as the Labour government seeks to recalibrate its diplomatic relationships, including with the U.S., where Reynolds's comments risk creating tensions. Conservative critics argue that prioritizing Brussels over Washington could squander a valuable opportunity for deeper trade ties with America. Maxwell Marlow of the Adam Smith Institute warned against aligning too closely with the EU, saying, "The EU is synonymous with heavy-handed regulation and red tape, while America champions innovation and dynamism. Embracing Europe’s degrowth agenda will make Britain poorer and alienate our American allies. Instead, the UK should pursue a full-fat free trade agreement with the U.S." Meanwhile, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer met with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit in Brazil, marking the first high-level UK-China talks since 2018. President Xi appeared to endorse Labour's economic vision, saying, "The UK is working to fix its economic foundations and rebuild Britain." However, this meeting drew criticism from Conservative figures, including former Cabinet minister Sir Iain Duncan Smith, who accused Starmer of “kowtowing” to an authoritarian regime. "Those suffering under Xi’s genocidal policies and forced labor will feel betrayed," he said. Shadow Defence Secretary James Cartlidge acknowledged the importance of dialogue but stressed the need to recognize China’s "huge threat" to democratic values. As the geopolitical landscape becomes increasingly volatile, Britain’s position in navigating complex relationships with the U.S., EU, and China remains critical. The government's next steps will likely determine whether it can safeguard its economic and political interests without alienating key allies. Based on a report by Daily Telegraph 2024-11-20
