Thomas Friedman: To end war, defeat Hamas and stop settlements

Bottom line: Netanyahu has a completely incoherent strategy right now — eliminate Hamas in Gaza while building more settlements in the West Bank that undermine the only decent long-term Palestinian alternative to Hamas, the Palestinian Authority, which Israel needs to safely leave Gaza.

Yuval Noah Harari (ten čo napísal Sapiens a 21 Lessons for 21st Century): Is Hamas winning the war?

Israel says it wants to disarm Hamas, and it has every right to do so in protecting its citizens. Disarming Hamas is vital also for any chance of future peace, because as long as Hamas remains armed, it will continue to derail any such efforts. But even if Israel succeeds in disarming Hamas, that’s just a military achievement, not a political plan. In the short term, does Israel have any plan to rescue the Israeli-Saudi peace deal? In the long term, does Israel have any plan to reach a comprehensive peace with the Palestinians and normalize its relations with the Arab world?

ten times as much

Take parenting. Most readers summarize my Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids as “Parenting doesn’t matter.” But that is only one possible interpretation of the twin and adoption data. The data is also consistent, however, with the theory that most parents are barely trying to get results – at least on many relevant margins. I pondered this in depth before I started homeschooling my kids. I’m always stunned by all the economists who fail to teach their kids about supply-and-demand. All my kids know about these holy diagrams. What’s the difference between their kids and mine? I did ten times as much.

Silná zostava (Pôrody – prečo Slovenky stále chodia rodiť do Čiech a Rakúska?)

Prečo Slovenky stále chodia rodiť do Čiech a Rakúska? Nedôverujú slovenským pôrodniciam alebo majú nároky, ktoré im nevieme splniť? Kam sme sa za posledné roky posunuli v poskytovaní pôrodnej starostlivosti? Aké súkromie a zároveň bezpečné prostredie dokážeme rodiacej žene poskytnúť? A je pri nekomplikovanom pôrode naozaj potrebný lekár alebo by mala stačiť pôrodná asistentka? Máme ich vôbec dostatok? O tom, čo je to rešpektujúca pôrodná starostlivosť, kedy hovoríme o porušovaní práv žien pri pôrode a čo by sme mali urobiť, pre to, aby ženy ostali rodiť na Slovensku.

môj tajný recept na frustráciu – ja som ho síce už dávno objavila tiež, ale u mňa funguje inak… ja si to musím “vyliať”

Možno ste po voľbách frustrovaní. Možno vám je jednoducho smutno. A možno máte zlosť. Keď som sa podobne cítil pred istým časom ja, začal som si písať denník.

Prísne pri tom dodržiavam dve pravidlá. Po prvé, zapisujem si len dobré veci. Všetko, čo ma poteší, inšpiruje, ohromí svojou krásou, rozveselí.

Druhé pravidlo: netriedim, nesúdim, neškrtám. Zapisujem si všetko bez ladu a skladu, najlepšie hneď za čerstva.
