Greetings and Salutations, @BBCWorld .
You have, once again, been bamboozled.
This⤵️ is part of the current leading item on your home page.
Dr Al-Deeb is an interesting guy.

@imshin @EFischberger @MarkZlochin @SchoolBondOtter @CAMERAorgUK bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0k7…
He has a tumblr account - where he posted last year that he had lost his job at Al-Shifa, but that you could help by providing funds for him to study abroad.
It also posted a lot of propaganda straight out of the Hamas PR office. And it's clearly the same guy.

His tumblr account has been quiet since December 31 2024. So maybe he got he got another job - the BBC claims he's at Al-Quds hospital - and no longer needs your money.
Let's see how his GoFundMe is doing. Money is still coming in, but slowly.

Again it says he's seeking to leave Gaza,
and there's the obligatory Hamas propaganda with some obvious lies just in case you mistook him for an honest guy.
This isn't looking like a reliable source, @BBCWorld, but the best is yet to come. Oh yes.😤

The GoFundMe has an update!
After raising the equivalent of US $55,000
(a princely sum in Gaza)
he LEFT GAZA AND NOW IS BERLIN.
And he's busy calling his old buddies @BBCWorld pretending to be at a hospital in Gaza, today, right now.

@MichaelLangeNYC @DropSiteNews The methodology is total nonsense. Absolute bullcrap.
The results don't *show* any such thing. That conclusion is actually a key assumption of the model otherwise it wouldn't work.
I've been over all this before.

@BennnnnBennnnnn @wokbonds @WolfieSBD
An absolutely fundamental assumption of your calculation is that this "in line" behavior is true at the block level.
There's a bit of "aha, but this Jewish block (with 12% Jewish-sounding names) voted much the same as the non-Jewish block (9% Jewish sounding names) next to it, but what the fuq do you expect? Any difference is going to be swamped by noise from the 88-91% non-Jews.

@MichaelLangeNYC @DropSiteNews @BennnnnBennnnnn @wokbonds @WolfieSBD We do actually have an answer to this question that involved asking Jews, and not throwing in nine times as many non-Jews into the mix before totalling up the numbers.
Namely tried and tested exit polls, by reputable organizations, and not some shady sh1t from...
When international mail services to the US resume,
they're gonna be more like those to Brazil.
I have a lot of experience of sending small gifts to Brazil, so lemme explain how bad that gets.
(1/4) apnews.com/article/us-tar…
Trump has replaced the $800 "de minimis" exception which allows small gifts to travel painlessly with a $100 limit and a whole host of new rules.
Here's the current UK mail @RoyalMail state of play.
Brazil is similar (except $50 not $100), but even that ain't easy.
(2/4)
If I receive a personal package from Brazil, say around 2kg or less, using regular tracked airmail (about $25 US), it arrives like you'd expect. No drama. About five days.
FedEx is 2-3 days, $100+. No drama.
Sending the other way is a whole different story.

You published this yesterday.
Let me give you two hints before I reveal the answer - one your rival found months ago.
Do you really think the governor of the PMA doesn't know? (Hint: no)
Do you think he'd tell you if Israel did it? (Hint: yes)
@HonestReporting
On April 16, @WSJ published this.
Questions?
@MaxNordau @spacelaserbonds
@WSJ @MaxNordau @spacelaserbonds The full @WSJ article is here, which tells us who is really short of cash. It's actually coherent, unlike the @nytimes article which makes very little sense at all.
@EylonALevy @JMPSimor Because there was an explicit partition plan to the contrary which is explicitly cited (twice, moreover) in the text of the Israeli Declaration of Independence.
@EylonALevy @JMPSimor For the hard of understanding, of which there seem to be many, this doesn't answer the question of what the borders should be now.
It simply explains why the principle Mr Levy cited doesn't work. It's a status quo principle. You can't apply it decades later.
@EylonALevy @JMPSimor The Partition Plan, for what it's worth, as set out in 1947, doesn't work either. No one is seriously proposing it be applied now.
Amongst other things, neither the British nor any other external force is about to come in to take care of Jerusalem.
Rumble is in the news again because of JD Vance's stake in it. Time for a quick recap on how that stake is doing.
This is just terrible. They're not growing and they're losing a ton of money, entirely financed by a shrinking cash pile from investors.
Data is directly from their SEC filings. They had their IPO in 2022 and ought to be profitable (or clearly on the cusp of profitability) at this point.
Here's my take on the two biggest factors driving those numbers other than sheer incompetence and a terrible business model.
The most interesting part to me is this, which I've been watching for a while now. We get a new data point with Q2 results in 9 days.
