#israel #Netanyahu - Israeli ex-PM Olmert says Netanyahu ultimately to blame for death of hostages • FRANCE 24 English

3 September 2024

In an interview with FRANCE 24, former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert said Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was ultimately to blame for the shocking death of six more hostages in Gaza over the weekend. Israel says the six hostages were "brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists", something the group denies. "They were killed by Hamas," Olmert said. But "Netanyahu is responsible for the erosion that led to the killing of these six people, and the killing of many others that were found before, and the ones that will be killed tomorrow and the day after tomorrow", he added.

RayShawn "Shawn" Sanders is released from prison, hoping to start a new life. He is hired by Jonathan McAllister, one of the biggest media moguls in the country, as an assistant.


At first, the job seems like a perfect opportunity for Shawn to rehabilitate, but he soon realizes that the world he has entered is far more dangerous than the prison he left behind. In the world of media, ruthless rules dominate, where power and money overshadow morality.


Shawn faces relentless intrigue, ambition, and corruption. Every day he becomes a test, and the cost of a mistake is incredibly high. Shawn comes to understand that Jonathan is not just a half-mogul but a master manipulator, willing to sacrifice anyone to maintain his position. Shawn tries to hold onto his moral principles, but the world he has entered gradually pulls him into a web of lies and betrayal.


He finds himself faced with a tough choice: continue working for Jonathan and lose himself, or risk everything to escape this dangerous world.

#israel - Tens of thousands of Israeli protesters demand hostage release deal: The Times and The Sunday Times

1 September 2024

Tens of thousands of Israelis protested in one of the largest demonstrations since war began nearly 11 months ago. In Jerusalem, thousands gathered outside Netanyahu’s office demanding that his government agree a ceasefire. In Tel Aviv, relatives of the hostages marched with coffins, chanting “Now! Now!” One of Israel’s most powerful trade unions called for a general strike to start Monday as anger grows about Binyamin Netanyahu’s handling of the hostage crisis after the bodies of six Israelis seized by Hamas were recovered from Gaza.

The head of the Histadrut union, which represents 800,000 workers, said the “entire Israeli economy” would “go on complete strike” from 6am to pressure the government into agreeing a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages.

#A1 - How Google, Microsoft And Amazon Are Raiding AI Startups For Talent: CNBC

30 August 2024

Microsoft, Google and Amazon, along with other tech companies, have been getting creative in how they’re poaching talent from top artificial intelligence startups. Earlier this month, Google inked an unusual deal with Character.ai to hire away its prominent founder, Noam Shazeer, along with more than one-fifth of its workforce while also licensing its technology. It looked like an acquisition, but the deal was structured so that it wasn’t. Google wasn’t the first to take this approach.

In March, Microsoft signed a deal with Inflection that allowed Microsoft to use Inflection’s models and to hire most of the startup’s staff. Amazon followed in June with a faux acquisition of Adept where it hired top talent from the AI startup and licensed its technology.

It’s a playbook that skirts regulators and their crackdown on Big Tech dominance, provides an exit for AI startups struggling to make money, and allows megacaps to pick up the talent needed in the AI arms race. But while tech giants might think they’re outsmarting antitrust enforcers, they could be playing with fire. CNBC’s Deirdre Bosa has the story.

#music #musica #oasis - Row over Oasis tickets as prices surge

31 August 2024

Some Oasis fans were left fuming after pre-sale tickets were being resold for more than £6,000. The band warned against buying tickets sold higher than face value. Experts are also cautioning against purchasing retail tickets at inflated prices.



The UK’s culture secretary has slammed the “vastly inflated” selling of Oasis tickets as “depressing”, as she announced that dynamic pricing will be included in an upcoming government review of the secondary gig sales market.Over the weekend, standard tickets to see Mancunian duo Liam and Noel Gallagher reunite surged in price on some resale platforms, more than doubling on Ticketmaster, causing outrage among fans.“After the incredible news of Oasis’ return, it’s depressing to see vastly inflated prices excluding ordinary fans from having a chance of enjoying their favourite band live,” said Lisa Nandy in a statement on Sunday.

Israel on Sunday said it had recovered the bodies of six hostages in Gaza whose deaths it blamed on Hamas. The Palestinian militant group has meanwhile denied Israel’s claim while a senior Hamas official said the hostages would still be alive if Israel had accepted a US- backed ceasefire proposal. “There is a sort of blame game on what exactly happened to the six hostages,” FRANCE 24 International Affairs Editor Kethevane Gorjestani said in an analysis.
