    though tensions between the two allies have grown sour amid mounting U.S. concerns

    Should be …relations between the two allies have grown sour amid…, or …tensions between the two allies have grown amid….

    “tensions” growing sour makes no sense though. Are there sweet international tensions?

    Can really see the deteriorating quality of journalism in the writing used. They’re being paid for this. Supposedly anyway.

        Honestly, I think ChatGPT wouldn’t make that particular mistake. Sounding proper is its primary purpose. Maybe a cheap knockoff.

            it guesses the next word… based on examples created by humans. It’s not just making shit up out of thin air.

            Yes, it does that because it was designed to sound convincing, and that is a good method for accomplishing that. That is the primary goal behind the design of all chatbots, and what the Turing Test was intended to gauge. Anyone who makes a chatbot wants it to sound good first and foremost.

            Lol making a mistake isn’t unique to humans. Machines make mistakes.

      Could just be a way of saying, like, tensions have grown worse. When things sour, they get worse. Unless it’s sour cream. Or citrus. Or pickles.

      I dunno I’m not a linguist.

      This happens sometimes in my own writing when I’m revising quickly. Of course I don’t have an editor and I’m just commenting on Lemmy and Reddit, but same idea. First I write it using one phrase, then I revise it to another phrase while leaving behind a trace of the removed phrase. The final sentence might check out grammatically but not logically, so a simple grammar checker could miss it.

        Makes you wonder how fast they’re trying to go. I do it too, and I’m not on a deadline. I’m also not a professional, working within my field though.

    Netanyahu picked a bad time to provoke Biden while the pro-Israel republicans have neutered by the antisemitic hard right.

    Biden has pressure from his left to call for a ceasefire and little political upside to supporting Israel. Any other year, the Republicans would be howling about how Biden is soft on Terrorism, or weak on Israel, but the Krazy KauKus is standing on the throats of that kind of conservative.

    Netanyahu’s strategy of relying on support from Christian Nationalists while ignoring Jewish Americans may not have been wise.

      what I don’t understand is, while yes the far right is anti-semitic, are they not even more anti-islamic?

          That’s the difference though. McConnell is old guard Republican. Far-right, but in a stodgy, slow kind of way that builds strategic alliances where needed. Trump’s far right is utterly impulsive, guided by pure emotion, and completely unfettered in their hatred.

            And Trump is extremely susceptible to flattery. It makes him very dangerous to have as a leader.

        They can use it to impose sanctions. Breaking international law, as much as contrarians like to claim otherwise, can come with consequences. No I don’t think blue helmets are going to be deployed but these things aren’t toothless.

          It feels like either it will be theater with a sternly worded letter delivered or Israel will actually get some real consequences. Not really much in between.

      Of course they will. This little spat with America over how difficult the genocide is for Biden’s campaign hasn’t slowed down the flow of material aid. They know they can do whatever they want, they’ve pushed as far as broadly declared and publicised genocide without significant consequences, really the only boundary they have left to test is nuking Tehran or something.

    That he was even welcome in the first place after all he’s said and done is in itself absolutely unacceptable.

    Good. Actions not words.

    Israel announced the biggest annexation of the west bank since 1990s when Blinken was in Israel a few days ago.

    Any time Israel comes to visit they just openly embarrass Biden.
