My Life on this planet.

More of my post on Facebook during January and February 2024 about the terrible conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. FB 03/01/2024 - No targeted liquidation of terrorists, but a collective punishment A minefield in the Middle-East. The bombing of the Gaza Strip continues while Hamas members are murdered outside Israel and the Palestinian territories. As long as the conflict remains limited to the Middle-East, Israel may gain because people in the rest of the world can't continue to protest the tens of thousands of dead and wounded Palestinians. And when Islam terrorism returns to Europe and America when Muslims are angry that too little is done to enforce a ceasefire, Muslims will be blamed. Indeed, mainly Muslims are killed by other Muslims such as likely happened today in Iran, still they continue to blame others for this violence. And thus, for now, Netanyahu likely can continue to order the murders of other humans, instead of a targeted liquidation of Hamas terrorists. B

Collection of my posts on Facebook from November and December 2023, thus about two till three months after the terrible Hamas attacks that killed around 1400 Israelis, and was the signal for PM Netanyahu his current government that include hardliners who want a Jewish-only state, to invade the Gaza Strip and bomb it as much as possible so people will not be able to return to their homes. FB 07/11/2023 - Israel's PM Netanyahu wants to occupy Gaza Strip Why am I not surprised that Israel's PM Netanyahu want to occupy Gaza again? Because I take policies that are considered conspiracy theories serious when they are favoured by important politicians.  Between the time Israel occupied Gaza and now, [quote] " ... the idea that Israel should fully occupy Gaza has not gone away, through war and blockade, as Hamas emerged as the strip’s ruler. " But, it is not about Hamas as the settlement policies continued in the Westbank where Hamas doesn't rule. It is about a United Isr

When I was younger I thought nuclear energy power stations are the way forward: impressive and even beautiful buildings (I like the material concrete in buildings) whereby an amassing technique produces from quite a small place energy for many.  During the recent Cop28 climate top in the United Arab Emirates (where a general agreement was reached such as to face out fossil fuel use  although it was to be expected some would search for loopholes ), many countries advocated to use nuclear energy as a clean solution to counter climate change. However, evidence showed me that the energy is too powerful and dangerous, too dirty and too expensive while we remain dependent from others for our energy to justify its further use on our planet. So, I continue to think we should try to find better ways to generate energy, just as I wrote a year ago  although this reactors can help to bridge the time towards clean energy. Here my reasoning against continuing the use of radioactivity to generate e

Kristallnacht , in English known as Night of the Broken Glass On 9 November 2023, the world, or at least the West, remembered that 85 years ago Kristallnacht happened. It was on the night of 9 to 10 November 1938 that Hitler ordered thugs that included SA and SS officers, and some Hitler youth and German citizens to attack synagogues and other Jewish property, while police and fire officers were ordered not to intervene unless non-Jew property was under threat to burn down. About 90 Jews died, 30,000 were imprisoned in concentration camps where more Jews died, and over 7,000 Jewish businesses were destroyed.  Why did this happen? Hitler used a specific incident to allow the terrible night to happen. The pretext for this event happened in Paris, France. Here a young in Germany born Polish Jewish man Herschel Grynszpan murdered the German diplomat Ernst vom Rath because he was angry about Germany's anti-Jewish laws and the resulting bad treatment of Jews (although some people think
