  • Pretty much all arab leadership want “peace” with Israel. The issue is the Arab street/people absolutely do not want to with varying degrees.

    IMO this depends more on economy than relations. If gulf oil is seen as too risky, or restricted by Iran after this, then that would gradually release the USA’s interest in the gulf, as Washington pivots towards greater energy independence and oil integration with LATAM. However, Israel will always swing the American MIC towards war with ME countries (probably Turkiye and/or Syria next after Lebanon and Iran today)





  • We need to add Dubai to the boycott list.

    Its blatantly obvious they are both funding the genocide in Sudan and co-signing the genocide in Palestine. Its a shame the fall of El-Fashir did not lead to greater outrage in the West, like it has for Gaza. These conversations are taking place within activist circles, however at least in the USA, were not doing enough.

    imo I think most people aren’t connecting the dots between the UAE’s crucial role in supporting the genocidal Zionist state.




  • Hey, I’m tightening up my privacy like you. I’m not sure if containers are the best way to go, but Mullvad Browser is essentially what you are looking for. Its a firefox fork that has complete fingerprinting protection baked in. Its basically tor browser minus the tor network. Both it and tor have a button (“New Identity” feature) you can click to completely clean your session (cookies cache etc) without closing the browser.

    You can also see what your fingerprinting profile by looks like using the EFF’s “Cover Your Tracks”. It also reports how unique your browser is, but don’t use this as a metric of how private and secure you are, since there are many other aspects you need to factor.




  • Practically, I agree with you but the definition of a Central Bank Digital Currency is a currency issued by the country’s treasury. Maybe they come up with some hybrid scheme where the Fed will credit Circle’s accounts and then they print more USDC, but that would for sure require legislation and be an immense responsibility given to a private company.

    DAI/USDS are what you’re looking for in a permission-less stablecoin, but unfortunately the founder has back peddled to chase making money over principles. I believe folks have been turning towards a project called https://www.liquity.org/ but its no where the size and pedigree that MakerDAO was.
