What Nikki Haley Wrote on Artillery Shells During Visit to Israel Days After IDF’s Slaughter of Refugees

May 29th, 2024

Via: Daily Mail:

Former GOP presidential candidate and Donald Trump’s UN ambassador Nikki Haley wrote ‘finish them’ on an IDF shell in reference to Hamas just after the devastating attack on refugees in Rafah that left 45 people dead.

Haley, 52, was touring Israel’s northern border with Lebanon when the photo opportunity took place. The former governor of South Carolina also wrote: ‘America loves Israel.’

The picture was originally posted on X by Israel’s former UN ambassador, Danny Danon. Danon is a member of Benjamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud party and is considered a strong advocate for continued military operations against Hamas.

When asked about her message, Haley was defensive, using the opportunity instead to attack President Joe Biden, accusing him of withholding support for Israel in order to slow down the IDF operations in Rafah.

Haley was also critical of the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice’s efforts to try the Israeli government for war crimes.

Von der Leyen Vows To ‘Vaccinate’ EU Population Against Disinformation

May 28th, 2024

Via: The People’s Voice:

As technology evolves, we need to build up societal immunity around information manipulation. Because research has shown that pre-bunking is much more successful than de-bunking. Pre-bunking is basically the opposite of debunking. In short, prevention is preferable to cure. Think of information manipulation as a virus.

Instead of treating an infection once it has taken hold, that is de-bunking, it is better to vaccinate, so that our body is inoculated. Pre-bunking is the same approach. Because disinformation relies on people passing it on to others – it is essential that people know what malign information’s influence is and what the techniques are that are behind it. As that knowledge goes up – our chances of being influenced goes down. And that builds up the societal resilience that we will need.


Denver Police Will Send Drones to Some 911 Calls

May 28th, 2024

Via: Daily Mail:

The Denver Police Department has launched a new program that will have drones respond to 911 calls instead of cops.

Gates said that the department is now considering using its drones to respond ahead of officers and in some instances, instead of them attending at all.

If a drone is deployed before an officer responds to a call, it could map out the area and send live streamed video footage back to the cop before they arrive.

In the case that a drone is flown to the scene of a 911 call, the device will be able to determine the severity of the call to inform officers if they need to respond.

‘I could fly the drone over (a reported suspicious vehicle) and say, “Hey, that vehicle is not out of place,” and I never had to send an officer over to bother them and I can clear it with that,’ Gates said. ‘It’s saving resources.’

Trust The “Science”…That Just Retracted 11,000 “Peer Reviewed” Papers

May 27th, 2024

The AI Comedy Gold keeps coming.

Via: ZeroHedge:

It’s yet another reminder of why blindly ‘trusting the science’ may not always be the best go-to move in the future.

217 year old Wiley science publisher has reportedly “peer reviewed” more than 11,000 papers that were determined to be fake without ever noticing. The papers were referred to as “naked gobbledygook sandwiches”, Australian blogger Jo Nova wrote on her blog last week.

“It’s not just a scam, it’s an industry,” she said. “Who knew, academic journals were a $30 billion dollar industry?”

According to Nova’s post, professional cheating services are employing AI to craft seemingly “original” academic papers by shuffling around words. For instance, terms like “breast cancer” morphed into “bosom peril,” and a “naïve Bayes” classifier turns into “gullible Bayes.”

Similarly, in one paper, an ant colony was bizarrely rebranded as an “underground creepy crawly state.”

The misuse of terminology extends to machine learning, where a ‘random forest’ is whimsically translated to ‘irregular backwoods’ or ‘arbitrary timberland’.


Benjamin Netanyahu Calls Rafah Airstrike Which Killed Dozens of People a ‘Tragic Mistake’

May 27th, 2024

Via: Irish Independent:

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said there was a “tragic mistake” after an Israeli strike killed dozens of people in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, many of whom were children.

In a speech before parliament on Monday, he said Israel was investigating the strike that occurred the night before.

Meanwhile, an Egyptian soldier has been shot dead and others have been injured in an exchange of fire with Israeli soldiers near the Rafah Crossing on the border between Gaza and Egypt.


North Carolina: U.S. Army Special Forces Operator Kills Chechen Man Outside Home

May 26th, 2024

Via: Fox:

A mysterious shooting in North Carolina north of Fort Liberty, formerly Fort Bragg, not far from where some of America’s most elite U.S. Special Operations forces live and train is under investigation by the Army Criminal Investigation Division as well as local police. The shooting in Carthage, North Carolina occurred May 3 at 8:15 p.m. following a phone call about a suspected trespasser near a Special Forces soldier’s property.

Two Chechen men who spoke broken English were found near the soldier’s home. The family alleges the suspected intruder, 35-year-old Ramzan Daraev of Chicago was taking photos of their children. When confronted near a power line in a wooded part of the property, an altercation ensued and Daraev was shot several times at close range. A second man, Dzhankutov Adsalan, was in a vehicle some distance from the incident and was questioned by authorities and then released. The Moore County Sheriff’s office is leading the investigation.

Sheriff Ronnie Fields said in a statement: “The caller indicated that an individual was observed taking photographs on the property and had become aggressive towards a resident outside their home…. The deceased was found approximately 250 yards from the roadway, along a powerline on the residential property. Identification was not initially found on Daraev; however, his identity was later confirmed through family members and an international identification located in his vehicle.”

The shooter has been identified as a Colonel with the U.S. Army who resided at the location of the shooting.

U.S. Special Operations soldiers around the country have experienced strange interactions in recent years that they say involve suspicious surveillance of them and their families. Many believe that U.S. military bases have become an increasing target of foreign probes.

This May 3 shooting in Carthage may simply have been a case of mistaken identity, but members of the Special Operations community are asking why two Russian-speaking Chechens were taking photos near an elite Army special forces residence at 8:15 pm on a Friday night some 10 minutes after sunset and why the FBI is not the lead in the investigation.


Biden’s $320M Gaza Pier Disaster

May 26th, 2024

I couldn’t make it up if I tried.

Via: ZeroHedge:

A section of the $320 million floating pier built and erected off Gaza’s coast has broken off and floated onto an Israeli beach. The Saturday mishap is the latest setback for the US humanitarian aid project, after three US troops were reported injured aboard the pier two days prior, including one critically.

The Times of Isreal’s military correspondent Emanuel Fabian has reported that “An American vessel used to unload humanitarian aid from ships into the Gaza Strip via a floating pier disconnected from a small boat tugging it this morning due to stormy seas, leading it to get stuck on the coast of Ashdod, eyewitnesses say.”

The recovery operation has not gone well either, as “Another ship was then sent to try and extract the stuck vessel, but also got beached,” Fabian writes.

And yet a second US Army vessel also got stuck in shallow waters while trying to rescue the pier section. Overnight US ships had been moving two pieces of the floating pier to the Port of Ashdod in southern Israel when the now beached section detached and drifted away. American troops can be seen in footage standing helplessly on the beach.
