...multiple counties should band together to oust the Netanyahu administration, dismantle the IDF deploy a multilateral UN peacekeeping force to stabilize the region & prosecute members of the Israeli government & military for crimes against humanity.

Just like the Socialist Republic of Vietnam overthrew the Communist Khmer Rouge in 1989 to end the Cambodian genocide...

As an American, I'm hoping you don't poach him, even though there is absolutely no good reason not to

Maybe I have a pessimism bias, but I think there is a 85%+ chance that there's a 500 million+ human fatality incident before 2100...

For context:

COVID death toll: 7 million (confirmed)

HIV/AIDS pandemic: 44 million deaths

WW2 death toll: 75-85 million

All this only a 75 minute train ride from NYC

Plus a couple lovely little parks along the river and easy access to multiple hiking trails that give you a scenic overlook of the Hudson Valley

But it also has an adorable downtown with multiple well-cultivated bookstores, eco-friendly gift shops, cozy restaurants (with a solid selection of plant-based meals) and local breweries (with a nice selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer)

Obviously, it is most known for the Dia Beacon: a fantastic 300,000 square ft modern and contemporary art museum opened in 2003 & set in a repurposed Nabisco factory with artwork by: Renée Green, Larry Bell, Senga Nengudi and Andy Warhol

I can't wait for Zohran Mamdani to win the primary election tomorrow and eventually make all NYC buses fast and free
