Israel's parliament is considering increasing the fees for Palestinians to file court cases. Israel's courts sometimes protect Palestinians' human rights when state agencies decide to trample them, and the right-wing ruling parties want to squelch that without overtly prohibiting it.

Israel and the Zionist Organization of America are allying in public with right-wing antisemites. This is not a joke.

Israel cares less and less about support from mainstream US Jews, since its lobbying power in the US now comes from rich Christians.

I forecast that a few more years will see Israel calling most American Jews "self-hating anti-semites" while saying that right-wing Christian billionaires and Bannon are not anti-semites. This is what Orwell referred to as "blackwhiting".

Noa Gur Golan refused to enter the Israeli army and serve the occupation, and was jailed. Her mother stated support for her decision, so the Israeli extremist newspaper demands she be fired.

Electricity for an electric car is much cheaper in the US than the equivalent amount of gasoline.

Global heating is enabling sea urchins to wipe out kelp forests and the many other species that depend on them.

Most large sea animals start out as tiny larvae which need a place to hide. Coral reefs and kelp are very important to shelter the larva.
