I'm in general agreement with you but it seems we are tracking more towards your option #1 at the moment. Israel is talking about re-occupying Gaza permanently and they are also fragmenting the west bank more and more. The international community seems rather impotent these days (I could say the sa...

It's such a clusterf*ck now I don't see any good way for it to end. I figure both sides hate each other to the extent they won't ever get along (I realize this has been the case pretty much from the start). The objective is not to get along, but to stop the bloodshed while ensuring basic dignity. T...

^^ A drop in the ocean. Finally seems untenable now, the current situation. Starving people is very bad PR. They won't show a child partially crushed under concrete, or decapitated by shrapnel, or suffocating slowly during hours or days in a pocket of air under a collapsed building, but they will sh...

I banned some I.P.s and added some rate limiting, so hopefully this will help. I also fixed the HTTPS certs (if you see an issue, you might nee...

Sorry about the site performance issues. I've tried to dig into it a bit. It's not a DOS attack or anything like that. It just seems to get bunged up after a while of operation with slow moving processes. Looking at the processes, I don't see anything weird. I have set a cron to restart weekly, but ...

Seems it was running slow again. Didn't find any clear reason, so just restarted and seems okay now. Let's see.
