Birthday briefs

I’ve got a few candidates for the journey: Some scientists think we should send people on a one-way trip to Mars. Yeah, I can think of a few people I’d love to see on that trip. Can they make it a bigger ship?

Sorry, wrong number: Iran says the weapons that were found being smuggled in containers shipped to Nigeria (by way of Mumbai; are they sure they got them all?) were a “misunderstanding.” I can believe that. They put the wrong number on the end of the code, and instead of Gaza, the weapons wound up in Nigeria. Oops.

Freeze and freeze; what is freeze?! Is anyone else tired of the stupid negotiations on freezing settlements? Hell, I’m tired of writing about them. (Extra credits to the SF nerds who can name the reference in the subhead. Yeah, I know it’s a gimme.)

Aiding the incitement: Great. Norway’s got whole villages funding anti-Israel films, including one that translates “itbah al-Yahud” as “kill the Israelis.” Because of course, all Israelis are Jews; all Jews are Israelis. (“Yahud” is the Arabic word for Jew, if you didn’t already know.)

    Hmm, I see going to Mars as a sort of privilege. I do not want to waste effort on these people. How about we just send them to the Oort cloud? That’s farther away.

    True, when will they understand that Jews and Israelis are two different concepts?
