Connecticut cops shoot man dead in his bed
*"Questions linger" after Connecticut cops shoot man dead in his bed.*
Once again, thugs assume that if it looks like there is danger, and
they can't be certain there isn't any, the only thing they can do is
shoot fast. That assumption is going to lead systematically to many
deaths.
What else could they have done? They could have pulled back from the
door. They could have used a mirror or a video camera to look at
Passmore through the doorway while remaining out of sight for him.
If thugs don't have such equipment nowadays, we could make sure they
have it in the future.

UK forest ecosystems
* UK forests are heading for "catastrophic ecosystem collapse" within
the next 50 years due to multiple threats [happening in parallel]
including disease, extreme weather and wildfires, researchers have
warned.*
Can anyone find comparable studies about parts of the US?

Israeli campaign to kill Hamas leaders
*Israeli campaign to kill Hamas leaders likely to backfire, say
earlier assassination targets.*
When the US tried this approach against various real or presumed
enemies, the attacks, whether successful or not, killed lots of other
people. This stirred up considerable hatred against the US. Israel
is already doing lots of things that stir up hatred, but it can surely
generate more if it does this.

Israel's plan to flood HAMAS tunnels with sea water
Israel's plan to flood HAMAS tunnels with sea water is likely to make
all Gaza's ground water undrinkable, and poison all the farms with salt.
It would not surprise me if that were the intention — a plan to force
just about everyone to leave Gaza, but in a deniable way, one that would
appear less culpable than forcing them at gunpoint or bombing everyone.

US donations site funneling money to right-wing groups in Israel
A donations site in the US funnels money to right-wing groups in
Israel that participate in pogroms in Palestine and in seizing
Palestinians' land.
Some of this donation violates US laws, but the US government hardly
pays attention.

Aid worker killed in Gaza airstrike
*Israeli airstrike kills Gaza aid worker and 70 of his extended
family, UN says.*
The article also describes the excuses that Israel presents for slowing the
flow of aid to an inadequate amount, which is causing terrible hunger.

Urgent: Sharing of abortion data with government agencies
US citizens: call on Big Tech to Stop sharing abortion data
with government agencies.
Just asking the companies to stop is unlikely to suffice. We need
laws to stop them. To make the correction reliable, those must be
laws against collecting the data that could be used to persecute those
who have had abortions.
