In Israel, the only way to uncover the truth of a phone hacking scandal in which cops may have destroyed evidence is... to ask for help from a company that has routinely lied to cover up scandals in the past? How very modern.

No matter what side of the aisle you're on, everyone agrees 2016 was an ugly, ugly election: two parties ready to burn civility to the ground in a mad contest for power at any price.
The core question today is if 2024 will be better... or worse. twitter.com/ggreenwald/sta…

If there's an invasion tomorrow, dunk on me because I have been spectacularly wrong.
But remember, too that the source of my skepticism is that the US IC has (again) been making truly spectacular claims without presenting any evidence -- because you did not require it of them.

Fact-checkers out here leaping on hand grenades to shelter (precious baby angel) corporations from any suggestion that (fair, well-earned) profit margins might have a closer connection to (reluctant, justifiable) price inflation than (wicked, hell-born) modest wage increases. twitter.com/TeddieRedder/s…
