Some people don't see your kindness as sacred. They see it as a tool. They study your loyalty, your consistency, your silence. Not to honor it, but to use it.

To master yourself is to also master your seeing. Because once the illusion falls, the danger is no longer hidden.

Secret details of Israel’s mammoth deal with Google and Amazon revealed – media

Israel reportedly secure unrestricted access to Google and Amazon’s cloud services and made them notify it about data requests from abroad

Secret details of Israel’s mammoth deal with Google and Amazon revealed – media The US tech giants cannot bar West Jerusalem from using its products even if it violates their terms of service, a consortium of outlets has reported Israel has forced US tech giants Google and Amazon to violate their own legal obligations under a 2021 cloud services contract with West Jerusalem, according to a joint investigation by several news media outlets, including The Guardian. The Jewish state’s contracts with US tech platforms have been under close scrutiny following widespread accusations, including from the UN, that its military response to the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack that killed over 1,200 people constitutes a genocide. Known as Project Nimbus, the $1.2 billion deal reportedly bars the firms from restricting the Israeli government’s access to cloud services they provide, even if it violates their terms of use, the reports, carried by The Guardian along with +972 Magazine and Local Call, suggest. The deal also reportedly requires the two companies to secretly notify West Jerusalem using a so-called “winking mechanism” should any foreign state or court seek access to Israeli data stored in the cloud.

The scheme effectively allows the tech firms leak information on third party data requests, normally regraded as confidential. Google and Amazon are also reportedly to face heavy financial penalties if they cut Israel off from their services. The Jewish state can “make use of any service” at will as long as it does not breach Israeli law, infringe on copyright or involve reselling the companies’ technology, according to the leaked text of the contact. The clause is allegedly aimed at preventing a situation in which the US tech giants would be forced to break ties with Israel over pressure from employees, shareholders or activists. Google employees increasingly protested against the company’s ties with the Israeli government amid the war in Gaza over the past years. In April 2024, the company fired nearly 30 such workers, accusing them of disrupting the work process. In July 2025, Google co-founder Sergey Brin accused the UN of being “transparently anti-Semitic” over a report accusing tech firms, including Alphabet, of profiting from the Gaza war.

"Hope you like the sardines buddy!" And some people are worried how we would go on without cops lol

UK’s Prince Andrew stripped of titles and evicted from royal residence

Britain’s King Charles III has ordered disgraced Prince Andrew to vacate his royal home due to renewed attention to his Epstein ties

King Charles III evicts brother Andrew from royal residence The British royal family has stripped Jeffrey Epstein’s former friend of his last titles British King Charles III has stripped his brother Prince Andrew of his remaining titles and evicted him from his royal residence due to sexual assault allegations and his close friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. According to the royal family, the former prince will from now on be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and must vacate the Royal Lodge mansion near Windsor Castle, where he has lived for more than 20 years. Andrew, who surrendered his use of the title Duke of York earlier this month, will move to “alternative private accommodation,” Buckingham Palace said on Thursday. “These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him. Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse,” the statement said. According to the BBC, Andrew remains eighth in line to the British throne despite losing his titles. In 2022, Andrew settled a civil lawsuit with US activist Virginia Giuffre, who alleged that he raped her three times in 2001 when she was 17 years old. Giuffre, who committed suicide in April, claimed that Epstein and his girlfriend, British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, had trafficked her to the royal. Andrew maintained that the alleged incidents “never happened” and insisted that he was unaware of Epstein’s crimes when he hosted him and Maxwell at Royal Lodge in 2006. Interest in the Epstein case was reignited earlier this year after US government agencies said they had found no evidence of foul play in his 2019 death in a Manhattan jail, which was ruled a suicide. Officials also denied that the disgraced financier had kept a list of wealthy people he allegedly trafficked women to. Giuffre’s memoirs were posthumously released in October, bringing renewed attention to Andrew’s ties to Epstein.
