Motown Bombers Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 I became of age at the start of the Iraq war and heard this same thing and that we were going to have to bring back the draft. My brother and I even made escape plans to Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not heard anybody NOT calling the events in GAZA a humanitarian crisis. One demand was met within hours, when Wilcox emailed a statement to the student body acknowledging the events in Gaza as a “humanitarian crisis.” I am so thankful that all the Rubbermaid trash cans at UC will be left in one piece tonight.

pfife Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Having issues with peaceful resolution after months of arguing violence is bad is an interesting way to go. It's almost as if you were virtue signalling the whole time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984Echoes Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 The U.S. is attempting a 4-way peace agreement with us, Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Gaza (or Palestine as a recognized two-state solution with Israel). They're calling it the "None go forward without the Others" deal. There are moving parts, not all happening at the same time... but, anyways, details: https://www.aol.com/none-forward-without-others-us-012341661.html (There's more than what I just clipped and posted below): ‘None go forward without the others.’ US mega-deal would tie together the futures of Saudi Arabia, Israel and Gaza ANALYSIS BY BECKY ANDERSON, MOSTAFA SALEM AND JENNIFER HANSLER, CNN May 3, 2024 at 6:47 AM Evelyn Hockstein/Reuters/Pool Saudi Arabia and the United States are finalizing the details of a landmark deal to strengthen bilateral trade and defense – but an agreement will not be reached if the kingdom and Israel do not establish diplomatic relations, US officials said... ...would solidify the seven-decade security alliance between Saudi Arabia and the US, and ... Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long sought relations with Saudi Arabia, home of Islam’s holiest sites, as the move could domino across the wider Muslim world. The US is currently negotiating one mega-deal involving three components, State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Thursday. The first component includes a package of agreements between the US and Saudi Arabia, another component has the normalization of relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel, and a third component for a pathway to a Palestinian state. “All of them are linked together. None go forward without the others,” Miller said. For normalization to be realized between Saudi Arabia and Israel, there has to be a pathway for a Palestinian state and “calm in Gaza,” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken told a panel at an economic conference in Riyadh this week. “The work that Saudi Arabia and the United States have been doing together in terms of our own agreements, I think is potentially very close to completion, but then in order to move forward with normalization two things will be required: calm in Gaza and a credible pathway to a Palestinian state,” he said. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfife Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) ^ thanks for posting that. Seems like a long shot but worth the shot. I don't know if the two state solution part will work so it seems like the modified Saudi approach that is short of that mentioned in the article is more likely. The one Graham says can't get 67 in the Senate. Interesting it was modeled after the 2020 peace deals which I believe were the Kushner negotiated agreements, was he better at this than we thought?

Many schools/colleges within the U hold their own because they want the smaller ceremony. Today at Hill would either have been the Grad school ceremony (AM) or school of music(PM), which were both scheduled for Hill today. It will be interesting to how far things do or don't get tomorrow.
