Is it too early in the day for a Major Lazer remix? Not really.
Also, check out this odd WSJ smear of Human Rights Watch for ostensibly raising money from the Saudi government, which HRW tells me isn’t, like, true.
Also check out Matt Duss linking this effort to AIPAC.

Morning Edition, July 15, 2009 · Israel is rejecting charges by human rights groups that its invasion of the Gaza Strip last winter included acts of excessive violence. An activist group called Breaking the Silence, recorded testimony from some Israeli soldiers who describe acts of gratuitous destruction and disregard for civilian life.

Breaking the Silence on the Gaza abuses
A human rights group founded by Israeli veterans has collected what it says are damning testimonies from soldiers who took part in the offensive in January against Hamas fighters in Gaza. BBC correspondent Paul Wood looks at the anonymous claims presented by Breaking the Silence.
Standing by the ruins of his home in Gaza, Majdi Abed Rabbo explained how Israeli troops had used him as a human shield.

hey spencer,
Kind of hard to take a comment seriously when it’s obvious they didn’t even go through the original post. Leen should get his own blog, and you should fix the second link so that it goes to the WSJ(or maybe I didn’t get the joke again, happens all the time).
I’m under something of a restriction about linking through stuff I write for the Windy, rather than what I used to do, which is reproduce my Windy stuff here, so that’s why I didn’t link the WSJ story directly, but rather my post about the WSJ story, through which you can *get* to the WSJ story. Make sense?
I was actually talking about the fact that the second link is just a repeat of the maddecent.com post and not the thing you were obviously trying to link to, whatever that was…
Oh thanks. I’ll update.
