They did exactly that, the two groups kept at parity and fighting each other were Fatah and Hamas.

Yes, they tried to divide and conquer but it backfired, I don’t think they’re doing that anymore.
Hamas must be deposed for meaningful safety, they’ve said they want to do October 7th over and over again. This is a last minute deal for them to try and weasel their way out of ultimate consequences for what they have done.
Occupying Gaza is probably also a good call considering their unilateral withdrawal arguably led directly to October 7th. I expect they will stay, try to implement a puppet government, do a little nation building, and only leave once Gaza is pacified. If this is not possible, expect more annexations and settlements.

This guy runs Euro Med Monitor:
Abdu was the assistant director and Palestine Office Manager for Council for European Palestinian Relations,[19][20] an organisation described by The Independent as “a Belgian non-profit organisation that lobbies on behalf of the Hamas-led Gaza Government.”[21] He was on the board of trustees of the International platform of NGOs working for Palestine.
Congratulations, you’re spreading Hamas propaganda. There’s a reason this story isn’t being run anywhere credible.
What on earth does this have to do with the patriot act?
It seems like the US government is predicting that the rise of AI will become a national security issue. They’re right.
It’s great for homemade pizza dough, you should try it sometime
Some voted for impeachment. Still, far more should have defended democracy, decency, and the rule of law.
Created in their image perhaps, but generally not in their own capability, understanding, and therefore one would assume, interests. Gods are like us because we imagine them like us, because humans draw from what we know and what we are concerned with when we imagine and dream and hallucinate. Religious writers cannot accurately fathom the interests of those with superhuman knowledge and capability, and so the gods typically want what the people who claim to speak for them also want, and offer solutions to whatever the worshippers are concerned with. Lovecraft was brilliant for acknowledging this limitation in his own way, he was known for not describing the horror because it is far too horrible and beyond our comprehension.
And isn’t it funny how the gods are always concerned with the same things their worshippers are? It would be odd to care deeply about regulating the sexual and dietary habits of the ants in our backyards. If god(s) were real I’d expect their interests to be wild and beyond our understanding, and not about what hats humans can wear and what meat is acceptable.
Why is a graph of “Population - With a Disability, 16 Years and over” relevant?
It’s true!
Although it may seem safe to assume that one horsepower is the output a horse is capable of creating at any one time, that is incorrect. In fact, the maximum output of a horse can be up to 15 horsepower,[2] and the maximum output of a human is a bit more than a single horsepower. For extreme athletes, this output can be even higher with Tour de France riders outputting around 1.2 horsepower for around 15 seconds, and just under 0.9 horsepower for a minute.[3]

I must now once again question the nature of reality.
Newer covid strains are significantly less deadly than the initial ones.
The COVID-19 IFR [infection-fatality ratio] declined from 0.67% in 2020 to 0.10% in 2022, and the IHR [infection-hospitalization ratio] fell from 2.60% to 0.76% over the same period.
Agreed, it’s never been about ideological consistency or evidence-based governance. It’s about, “hurting the right people,” to appeal to the masses, and plutocracy to appeal to their donors.
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:
There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time.
For millennia, conservatism had no name, because no other model of polity had ever been proposed. “The king can do no wrong.” In practice, this immunity was always extended to the king’s friends, however fungible a group they might have been. Today, we still have the king’s friends even where there is no king (dictator, etc.). Another way to look at this is that the king is a faction, rather than an individual.

Pro-Russia propaganda then. Funny how America’s right has embraced the west’s greatest enemy. When I was a kid I was told the reason communism was bad was because it was tyrannical to those living under it, Russia is still tyrannical but capitalist and now they’re totally on board. In hindsight, it was never about the tyranny. It was about profit.
I wonder what the world will do if that happens again. UN peacekeepers to oversee elections?
Whatever form Russia takes next should not have a seat on the security council.
The brain drain and pointless bloody war will continue until morale improves.
In the video that has been circulating of a family escaping the fire storm, they saw someone down in the street, probably dead from smoke inhalation or burns. I suspect there’s a lot more people dead from the fire since it happened at night and burned through populated areas. Some people probably were injured from being in the ocean during a hurricane. This is a chaotic tragedy and more details will be available later.
The rivalry continues to today, as detailed in the link it seems like you didn’t read.
