    Dragnets release stored CO2

    Fishing by dragging a net across the sea bottom does worse than destroy habitat and ecosystems; it also releases lots of CO2, half of which gets into the atmosphere.

    There was already a one sufficient reason to ban it. This is another.

    A craze to jail journalists, ISR

    The Committee to Protect Journalists has listed Israel as tied with Iran for sixth place on the "worst jailers of journalists" list.

    Drug development and pricing tactics

    *Manufacturers of 10 Drugs Slated for Medicare Price Negotiation Spent Billions More on Buybacks, Dividends and Executive Compensation than R&D.*

    US drug companies have worked hard to corrupt the system of studies to measure the effects of approved and proposed medicines. They can do this because the investigations get their funds from the drug companies. Therefore, we should take those studies entirely away from companies. The government should pay for these studies, getting funds from drug companies through taxes but denying them any say about what will be tested or by whom.

    The exploiter's courtroom antics

    The insurrectionist is intentionally obstructing his civil trial, daring the judge to order him to leave the courtroom.

    The judge understands that ordering him out of the courtroom is what he wants, and therefore doesn't do it, but the result is that the insurrectionist comes across as more powerful than the judge in the judge's own court. That surely serves his political strategy too.

    HAMAS sexual terror evidence, ISR

    The HAMAS killers and kidnappers were raving with hate to a degree that they raped and mutilated Israeli women, some in the process of killing them, and perhaps also corpses of those they had already killed.

    This demonstrates how humans can be lead to depravity that destroys their reason and humanity. We see this happening to Israeli soldiers, too.
