“The exam question is: where do you want to be in 10 or 15 years’ time, given the world we appear to be moving into? Is the UK seriously prepared to rethink its red lines?” Rogers asks.

This article is so disturbing to me I had to stop reading after the first twenty percent. Maybe you'll be able to handle it?
Good post by a history prof, in the genre “What most people don’t understand yet is …” — although, in my experience, a lot of the academics it’s addressing do grasp what’s happening with agents, and just really wish it would not happen.
Ja, sätt just och läste :)
One of the the villages the IDF demolished is my friend's ancestral home, Taybeh. Not a house, not a commercial building, not a gas station, the whole ancient village that survived the Ottomans, colonialism, and every other Israeli occupation. Just obliterated in the name of collective punishment.
"There is nothing like mortal danger to bring a club together. And so three nationalist shocks — Brexit, America First, Russia’s war — have given a multilateral, technocratic and liberal institution a sense of existential purpose that it was starting to lack."
Presumably the Americans will now shift seamlessly from denouncing Europeans for not militarily opening the Straits of Hormuz, to denouncing them for not militarily helping to keep the Straits closed.

The law is a victory for Israel’s far right and reflects the country’s shift to the right in the wake of the Hamas-led attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and the Gaza war that followed. The death penalty has long been legal in Israel, but only two people have been executed in the country’s 78-year history. The law makes death by hanging the default sentence in Israeli military courts trying Palestinians accused of killing people in militant attacks. Israeli citizens — both Jewish and Palestinian-Arab — could also face the death penalty for attacks that aim to “negate the existence of the state of Israel.” However, experts say the chances of it being applied to Jewish Israelis are minuscule.
The death penalty but it only applies to one ethnic group in the seperate courts you’ve set up to try them in www.nytimes.com/2026/03/30/w...
the most corrupt administration in history, every day a Teapot Dome level scandal
Två statliga utredningar konstaterar att skollagen överkompenserar expansiva skolkoncerner på de kommunala skolornas bekostnad, men politiker med tydliga band till samma koncerner struntar i utredningarna. Skollobbyismen har blivit en samhällsfara!
