After years of “activists” screaming their anti-Israeli and thinly veiled anti-Jewish hate in universities, on the streets, outside synagogues and Jewish shops, officials are shocked by the mass shooting on #BondiBeach during #Hanukkah celebrations. Precisely what “globalising the intifada” entails

Grok produced an interesting list of the Top 10 most important cities in #oilandgas: Houston, London, Singapore, Dubai, Geneva, Riyadh, Beijing, Moscow, Calgary, Stavanger. Geneva is perhaps surpsiring as it's easy to forget its major role in oil trading (Vitol, Trafigura, etc.).
