Firefox sync is not something I’m willing to give up. Also like Firefox UI better compared with safari on iOS.

“People in these three countries can be smarter than Americans and Europeans,”
If to complete his site’s motto : “an interesting idea every three months… and a dumb one every other day in between. “
If you want to have a meaningful dialogue you have to stick to the facts. Calling people murderers while not knowing anything much about your own, is not going to be very productive.
BTW, WHAT DO YOU call it when Arab leaders like AL-ASAD and AL-SISI, to name a few, kill and torture thousands of their own people, and people like you still find the energy to only reach their keyboard to criticize Israel? Is it fatigue (since you wasted so much time on Israel) or hypocrisy?
In principal, Western Jews like Hertzl himself did not plan to go anywhere. They saw themselves as Europeans were already emancipated since the first half of the 19th century and integrated (which led to growing anti-Semitism in Western Europe, but that's a different story).
Hertzl was secular and agnostic. Very different circumstances to those in the southern part of the Russian Empire (Pale of Settlement).
We’ve long passed “Hagana” and other myths. At least you didn’t link the Hebrew Wikipedia which has been taken over by a nationalistic club of one who’s busy rewriting Israel’s history.
About bedouins, you were talking about the end of the 19th century. At this stage there wasn’t a Palestinian national movement as such. When there was one and following the failed uprise in the 1930s, Palestinians in fact clashed with there own elite, in what was a civil war between the established leadership and a mob. Jews just happened to be in the way.
Ps Ben Gurion’s treatment of diaspora Jews, ruppin’s race pyramid and eugenics plan for the Jews, and other “anecdotes” are beyond the scope of this discussion, but should be remembered. There’s nothing saintly about pre-state Israel, nor innocent.
No, Mr. President. No. You don't have the power to move the election. Nor should it be moved. States and localities are asking you and Congress for funds so they can properly run the safe and secure elections all Americans want. Why don't you work on that?
Most Israelis that care about Israel are now realizing Ben Gurion was a fascist bustard who’s best friend was a eugenist (Arthur Rupin); The kibbutzs myth of self sufficiency was based on the employment of underaged Israelis, both jews and non Jews; “startup nation”’s IT infrastructure is horribly dated compared to anywhere in Western Europe; IDF has been busy training generations of Israelis to disregard human live and ignore the crimes the government is carrying in the occupied territories and Palestine; and to make it really bad, 1.5 Russian economical migrants imported to change its demographics turned Israel into a developing country plagued with corruption at every level.

There’s a graph server that might be helpful but I never used it.
Another advantage being able to ripgrep through content for dirty searches.
The more content is there (not just links and pointers) the more likely it is you’ll surprise yourself finding links between different domains you’re interested in.
For me, word definitions in Arabic for example, tie into terminology used in articles I read in other languages, because I can use “aliases” to refer back to them.
This of course still holds true:
Brave browser (Stage 1) is a Trojan Horse for their actual business which is a blockchain-based advertising platform (Stage 2).
Most importantly offline first approach. My notes are stored on a NextCloud share so many backups and notes are searchable with ripgrep when looking for stuff not interlinked or tagged.
Also roam research used to mess up quite often until they built client side caching. Still very annoying and frustrating to have to look at the dot turning green or staying brown. Could have improved but they should offer a complete offline solution IMHO, at least for editing markdown in 3rd party tools and re syncing.
