Five Things: Israel, Girlfriend, Privilege Expansion, Ukraine, Seahorse SexYour Sunday Morning starts here. Grab a coffee and read this now!Hello and welcome back to Five Things! This Sunday marks the end of a long weekend that started with our National Re-Unification Holiday on Thursday. Yesterday one of our daughters said that she likes a long weekend, but that she’s actually bored and would like to go back to school. I think we need to talk and have a serious father-daughter conversation. Anyhow, this newsletter deals with war and peace, romance and AI, and also seahorses and sex. I don’t know how these articles found me, but I’m sure you’ll enjoy reading them. Have a great Sunday! What Israel Has Lost“Now Israelis must return to the path set forth by Ben-Gurion when Israel was young. They must reestablish the fine balance between a free society and a mobilized society. They must redefine Israel as a frontier democracy that safeguards its values in the face of evil. And even as they prepare for war, Israelis must always strive for peace. For its part, the United States must recognize a simple truth: it’s Iran, stupid.” The Perfect GirlfriendOk, call me old-fashioned, but I think this is totally bonkers. Fascinating, but still bonkers. AI's Privilege ExpansionThe privilege expansion could also be interpreted as broadening participation on many more levels than ever thought possible. The Ukraine War Can’t End Until Russia Stops FightingThe West needs to deploy more weapons so that Russia will see the need to engage in peace talks. Unfortunately, diplomacy cannot work until Russia sees that it cannot win. Surprising Sex Lives of Seahorses“Every day, seahorse pairs meet at dawn, dusk, or both, depending on the species, to perform courtship rituals. These critical times allow the bonding pair to synchronize their reproductive cycles, a process that provides the female with the assurance she needs to hydrate their clutch of eggs—a necessary step before they are ready to be transferred to her mate.“ - I knew you just subscribed to Five Things because of the juicy sex stuff.
