Re: Truth is the first casualty
Maybe I read the article wrong and the two groups got along and sang camp fire songs while trying to figure out how to make their world into a better state. You absolutely did read the article wrong. "Though the events of Black September did not reflect a Jordanian–Palestinian divide, as there...

Re: Truth is the first casualty
This is really good: Excellent journalism. Too many good and clear minded points to reiterate, but one thing I hadn't considered is, when speaking of Western policy, that "the abandonment of neutrality regarding Israel’s conduct places Jews in the diaspora at increasing risk of antisemitic vio...

Re: I had a dream…

What you propose is something that is somewhat along the lines of what I thought would be the best solution, which unfortunately would be a tremendous ask of Israel. Basically, Israel is guilty of bein...

Oh man that sounds incredible. The demo video was annoying to watch but the patches are great. I love noise. Made me think of a favorite VSTi: Chimera by Majken. It's not lo-fi like that dust-engine, but it's a lot of shaping of white noise. Absolutely heavenly.
