„Frieden wird es erst geben wenn Araber ihre Kinder mehr lieben als sie uns hassen. [...] Wer Israel angreift, bekommt es mit Deutschland zu tun.”
— Cem Özdemir, 20.05.2021 auf einer Pro-Israel Demo, anfangs zitierend Golda Meir, ehemalige Ministerpräsidentin Israels.

Alles in einen Topf
Angesichts der Lage im Gazastreifen wurde auch hierzulande protestiert – und in dem Zusammenhang wieder heftig über Antisemitismus diskutiert. Dabei lohnt es sich, genauer hinzusehen.

Just had another substantial tree come down in the wood, quite suddenly and with a huge bang, as I was splitting firewood for this evening's cooking. Fortunately I was nowhere near it, but I'm a bit shaken.
The wind isn't even that strong.

A tree down in the wood. I'm not certain that this is the one that just fell, but to be perfectly honest I'm not too keen to go into that part of the wood just now to check! The tree is spruce, about 25-30 metres tall; it lies across the chaotic partly— cleared area where about 2,000 trees came down in November 2021, where young willows, alder and oak are beginning to recover.

The Wendelstein 7-X fusion stellarator proves its efficiency.

The Wendelstein 7-X concept proves its efficiency
One of the most important optimisation goals underlying the Wendelstein 7-X fusion device at Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Greifswald has now been confirmed. An analysis by IPP scientists in the journal Nature shows: In the optimised magnetic field cage, the energy losses of the plasma are reduced in the desired way. Wendelstein 7-X is intended to prove that the disadvantages of earlier stellarators can be overcome and that stellarator-type devices are suitable for power plants.

From The Conversation
Israel wants to destroy Iran’s nuclear program. But should it have nuclear weapons itself?
Israel’s avowed goal in the Middle East war is to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Yet, the double standard associated with this is hardly sustainable in the long run.
The worst-kept secret in the world of nuclear politics is that Israel possesses a formidable arsenal of nuclear weapons.
