Pleasure to talk to Becky Ferreira at MIT Technology Review about Trump's planned "Star Wars" revival - the "golden dome" missile defense shield. As I argued in my @journalofgss.bsky.social paper - still a domain where fact and fiction blend: www.technologyreview.com/2025/08/13/1...
Why Trump’s “golden dome” missile defense idea is another ripped straight from the movies
President Trump has proposed building an antimissile “golden dome” around the United States. But do cinematic spectacles actually enhance national security?

Gaza | The scale of human suffering and the stripping of human dignity have long exceeded every acceptable standard, both legal and moral.

This tragedy must end now.

Unglaublich, wieviel Zuspruch Israel für den Angriff auf den Iran erhält. Ich stimme zu,dass Atomwaffen in Irans Händen gefährlich wären, aber Konflikte mit Gewalt zu lösen birgt große Risiken. Darum gibt es das Gewaltverbot im Völkerrecht, um das ich sehr besorgt bin www.zdfheute.de/politik/g7-g...
Merz: Israel macht in Iran "Drecksarbeit für uns alle"
Kanzler Freidrich Merz bezeichnete das Vorgehen Israels gegen den Iran im ZDF-Interview als "Drecksarbeit für uns alle".

"when it came to Gaza, Mr. Trump’s thinking on Tuesday was so far outside the box that it was not clear he even knew there was a box." That precisely is one of the biggest problems for the world - the complete ignorance of international law.
An Unbound Trump Pushes an Improbable Plan for Gaza
Once a critic of nation building, the president now envisions taking over a Middle East enclave, driving out its Palestinian population and transforming it into “the Riviera of the Middle East.”

In #Germany, a watershed moment: Just hours after commemorating the Holocaust, the centre-right has accepted the support of the #farright #AfD to pass a (largely symbolic) motion against immigration, tearing a massive hole into the so-called 'firewall', Germany's variety of the cordon sanitaire.
