Today's Thorough Thursday is free to read, but I'm not sure many folks are going to want to.
I was going to talk about lost opportunities with tech, but Smotrich's latest actions are surprisingly big in Western news today, and warranted a piece about why it's still so hard for folks to talk frankly about Israeli state politics. Even when the US is terrified of losing democracy at home, folk still struggle with Jingoist wounds when addressing the far right among allies.

@MLClark Read it. And shared it. Thanks for these thoughts.
Much obliged, Brainwise. I wasn't too happy about writing on such a tough subject today (of all days!), and I sorely hope the rest of your day is spent on kinder news and happenstance.
