These dorsal fins aren't new at all. Just look at Audi's competitor for the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2011, as one example for their use.

I guess that all these economic predictions are based on the assumption that no competitors will be able to produce robotaxis? What is that assumption based on?

Wasn't it possible for her to roll down the side window and to escape the car that way?

We all know that policwe brutality in the US is over the top and that the US is a complete outlier among the industrialized world. I just wonder why you believe that standards in the US are also representative for the rest of the world? As the assassination in the hospital - which was a clear...

Ah, kid was shot into the back while attempting to flee. As with the assassination in the hospital, apparently the concept of "arrest" has been largely abolished when it comes to Israeli security forces and Palestinians.

Right, and look how well they are being treated by Israel in return: https://www.helsinkitimes.fi/world-int/24868-rising-violence-against-palestinians-by-israeli-forces-in-the-west-bank-reports-amnesty.html

The Saudis killed just one journalist. Compared to Israel they are obviously rank amateurs.

Well, in times past governments that claimed to be democratic tried to arrest people, even terrorists, instead of simply sending a hit squad. Even dictatorships often used to be ashamed to admit to have ordered a hit and claimed that people had been shot "while trying to escape" or died "because...

Not even 1‰ of the employees of UNRWA were supposedly involved in the attack on Israel, yet that's supposed to be sufficient reason to stop any financial support. Sorry, this brazen hypocrisy and unconditional support for Israel has really shattered the credibility of Western countries...

Just at the moment when there is a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza Western countries use the pretext that some UNRWA employees may have been complicit with Hamas to remove all financial support for UNRWA. It's obviously a complete coincidence that this happens right at the same time that Israel...

Not a total, but a quite substantial success for South Africa at the ICJ: The mere issuing of a provisional order is viewed as a harsh diplomatic blow for Israel, one that gives South Africa’s genocide claim tacit legitimacy. https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-783852

I really don't know where you are heading to with this, and I don't see the relevance. Additionally, you do realise that the small gene pool was and to some extend still is a massive issue for Jewish communities as well, particularly for the Ultra-Orthodox, which has led to a prevalence of some...

BTW, anyone who is interested in the Jewish emigration from Germany to Palestine after the Nazis seized power may want to read up on the Transfer Agreement between the Jewish Agency for Palestine and Nazi Germany, also known as the Haavara Agreement...

Obviously the Holocaust and WWII were essential for the establishment of Israel, but Zionism started in the late 19th century, Balfour promised Palestine to the Zionist movement in 1917, and many Jewish immigrants to Palestine moved there from Poland and from Russian controlled territories in...

Rabin was murdered by a terrorist who shared his ideology with members of the current Israeli government. Since then there was absolutely no support for a two state solution any more. As to "giving Gaza back", it was just too inconvenient and costly to protect a rather small Jewish population...
