Podcast Notes: The Church Front Show - Streaming Showdowns, Volunteer Tech Culture, and Easter Hot Takes Episode Overview In this episode of The Church Front Show, hosts Jake Gosselin and Matt Woltjer discuss several important topics for church tech teams including streaming platform updates, volunteer management challenges, studio equipment upgrades, and Easter service preparation. They also share interesting tech spotlights and clarify Church Front's service offerings. Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:02] Welcome to The Church Front Show with Jake Gosselin and Matt Woltjer Jake introduces himself as "low voltage specialist" while Matt jokes about being the "Stream Deck guy" Mention of Church Front's website and the new "Toolkit" featuring gear packages and bundles Streaming Showdown Follow-Up [01:27] Discussion of Resi's response to their previous streaming platform comparison video Key issues identified by Resi: Tests were conducted on outdated firmware missing critical improvements Resi Mini encoder was configured at a much higher bitrate (15 Mbps vs. 4 Mbps) Jake's acknowledgment: "We messed up. We mess up all the time. Don't take everything we said as the final truth." Explanation of philosophical differences between streaming platforms: BoxCast prioritizes near real-time delivery even with occasional quality reduction Resi prioritizes consistent video quality with accepted delays Matt explains the challenges of recording comparison videos: "We recorded this video three times... you have to basically stop what you're doing, congest your network or cut the cable..." Volunteer Tech Culture Discussion [11:34] Response to a social media post about a 26-year tech volunteer who was abruptly dismissed The volunteer had served for 26 years and was told by a new pastor (8 months at the church) they were "going in a different direction" with no further explanation Perspectives from both sides: Leadership should build relationships and provide clear communication about vision Volunteers should maintain open communication and approach changes with humility Matt's insight: "If you build good relationships with your people, hopefully it never comes to this type of a post... if you can do it through that element of respect and love and relationship, it's going to turn out way better." Studio Updates & Equipment [18:16] Current equipment upgrades: Shure SM7B microphones (not the DB version as intended) Yamaha DM3 mixer CRM 300 camera with a 500 model on the way NDI video integration with ECAMM Uline cafe table (72″ x 36″) Prime Acoustic wall panels Jake's appreciation for ECAMM: "ECAMM now in my opinion is a little bit underrated as a live stream solution for churches" Discussion of ProPresenter's limitation: lack of NDI HX output Church Front Growth [24:24] Announcement about company expansion Currently hiring for a Solutions Specialist role Future need for additional AV technicians for upcoming projects New warehouse space development Applications available through the Church Front website resources page Tech Spotlights [26:31] DIY Front of House Console Build: YouTube creator completely disassembled an Avantis console Integration with rack-mounted computers to create a 4-in-1 system Controls audio, ProPresenter, lighting, and video Matt's warning: "Don't do this until you've had your Avantis for at least two years and the warranty's no longer good." LED System Installation: Church in Nebraska with 6.5′ x 11.5′ LED screens Impressive architectural integration including sliding door to reveal screens Universal Audio Apollo Headphone Amp: Discussion of potential studio upgrade Cost-effective alternative using Dante feeds and Loop Back software SQ Mixer Firmware Update (v1.6.0.0): Matrix mixes can now be split (six mono matrices instead of three stereo) Both USB ports can record simultaneously Enhanced app control capabilities MAC compatibility for firmware updates Easter Tech Hot Takes [39:41] Matt's advice: "Don't be one of the churches that completely changes your DNA for the people that are going to come twice a year... you don't want them to be shocked by the difference between what you did for Easter and what you do the next weekend." Jake's warning: "Easter's not the time to try new tech!" Recommendation to plan major tech upgrades months in advance, not weeks before major services Jake: "If you are having to expend all of your creative brain power to put together a tech system that you didn't take the time to learn, test and use, and then your whole week is just consumed with stress... you quite frankly deserve that stress because you did not take the time to be responsible in planning." Matt's reminder: "Your job at that moment is to minister. Even if you're on sound, even if you're on video, your job is to minister, not worry about tech." Church Front Services Update [45:19] Church Front Premium: Training and personalized advice through group coaching Consultation on upcoming AV projects Equipment recommendations with Spencer, their lead design engineer Access to all Church Front courses Church Front Pro (formerly Church Front Accelerator): Comprehensive consulting, design, and AV integration On-site surveys and assessments, including Matterport scans Professional system design using Vectorworks Assembly, installation, commissioning, training, and support Equipment Mentioned Shure SM7B microphones Yamaha DM3 mixer CRM 300 and 500 cameras ECAMM live streaming solution Avantis audio console Universal Audio Apollo headphone amp Allen & Heath SQ mixer (firmware v1.6.0.0) Prime Acoustic panels Action Steps Check for firmware updates on your existing equipment Evaluate your volunteer relationships and communication strategies Plan any Easter tech upgrades well in advance Focus on ministry, not just technical excellence, during high-attendance services Visit churchfront.com to explore their Premium and Pro services Connect & Continue Visit the Church Front website resources page for job opportunities and more information about their toolkit of recommended gear packages Apply to Join Churchfront Premium Apply to Join Churchfront Pro Free Worship and Production Toolkit Shop Our Online Courses Join us at the Churchfront Conference Follow Churchfront on Instagram or TikTok: @churchfront Follow on Twitter: @realchurchfront Gear we use to make videos at Churchfront Musicbed SyncID: MB01VWQ69XRQNSN
Michael Soileau and Scott Prather of LFT Fiber: Bringing Community-Owned Connectivity to Lafayette and Beyond This episode of Discover Lafayette features Michael Soileau, Director of LFT Fiber (formerly LUS Fiber), and Scott Prather, Public Relations Manager for the community-owned fiber utility. Together, they share the powerful story of how Lafayette's local investment in fiber optics two decades ago has blossomed into a cutting-edge broadband network that now reaches into rural and underserved communities across South Louisiana. It also underscored Lafayette's long-standing commitment to serving as a leader in our region, state, and nation in providing top-notch services to our citizens. A Full-Circle Moment Michael Soileau, a Mamou native, reflects on how the expansion of LFT Fiber into Evangeline Parish—one of Louisiana's most underserved and impoverished regions—feels personal. Thanks to strategic federal grants secured with the help of former Lafayette Mayor-President Monique Boulet during her time with Acadiana Planning Commission, LFT Fiber is fulfilling its mission to bridge the digital divide in rural communities. Celebrating 20 Years of Fiber Innovation Lafayette was one of the first cities in the country to build its own fiber optic network. What started as a utility communication system quickly evolved into a public broadband network. On June 16, LFT Fiber celebrates the 20th anniversary of the citizens' vote to support this bold initiative. Expanding Across Acadiana Through federal funding programs such as the GUMBO grant, LFT Fiber has expanded into seven parishes: Evangeline, Iberia, Vermilion, St. Landry, Eunice, Jennings, and Acadia, focusing on homes that previously lacked access to true broadband. While they don't yet serve 100% of these areas, the goal remains to connect as many people as possible. Workforce and Community Investment LFT Fiber employs 94 local professionals and partners with Lafayette-based contractors for construction and installation. Community pride runs deep, and their mission extends beyond internet access—they support local nonprofits, events like Festival International, and schools through digital access and sponsorships. Connection Essentials: Making Internet Affordable Recognizing that not every household can afford premium internet, LFT Fiber recently launched Connection Essentials, a $25/month plan offering 60 Mbps service to families receiving federal assistance with a student in the home. The plan includes a modem and is currently being rolled out in Evangeline Parish, with expansion underway in Lafayette and beyond. The "Connection Essentials" plan provides internet speeds 60 Mbps download and 60 Mbps upload for $25 per month, with unlimited data usage and no overage fees. Customer premise equipment is included at no additional cost. A one-time installation fee of $49 will be charged at the time of service activation. Everyday Pricing ("EDP") has also been introduced at affordable rates offered at 1 GBPS for $85.00 per month or 500 MBPS for $65.00 per month. "A commitment to fair, consistent pricing with no gimmicks, no surprises, and no limited-time promotions that leave you guessing." Digital Literacy and Safety Providing access is only part of the mission. LFT Fiber is actively partnering with school districts, library systems, and nonprofits to improve digital literacy, helping families understand how to safely and effectively use the internet for telemedicine, education, job searching, and more. Collaboration as a Core Value The recent Connectivity Summit, hosted by LFT Fiber on April 2, 2025, brought together business, nonprofit, healthcare, and education leaders to discuss shared challenges and foster partnerships. These summits help generate the kind of serendipitous, five-minute conversations that spark long-term innovation and community growth. On the Connectivity Summit, Michael Soileau shared,

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.We've got good news this Monday as the latest numbers show that dealership count and throughput are up, with stores averaging 511 new cars sold per year. Plus, we cover a quick turnaround for a vandalized Tesla charger and how United is upping its Wi-Fi game with Starlink internet.Show Notes with links:The U.S. new-car dealership count rose nearly 1% to 18,311 as of Jan. 1, 2025, up 171 from a year earlier, while the total franchise count fell 1.3% to 29,829, according to the latest Automotive News dealer census.Detroit 3 automakers shed dealerships, while import brands added stores with Ford Motor Co. leading the decline among the Detroit 3, losing 68 stores (a 2.2% drop). General Motors and Stellantis also reduced their dealership networks by 0.6%.Buick, Lincoln, and Jaguar continued trimming their franchise counts, with Buick experiencing the most significant reduction—down 135 to 927. Buick's franchise count has dropped by over half in the past two years due to dealer buyout offers.The number of exclusive dealerships across the industry as of Jan. 1 increased 3.5 percent to 13,226 from Jan. 1, 2024.The industry's average throughput (new-vehicle sales per franchise) increased by 5.8% to 511 vehicles in 2024, with the growth attributed to fewer franchises and an increase in U.S. light-vehicle sales to 15.35 million units, up from 14.9 million in 2023, according to Mary Raetz,director of the Automotive News Research & Data Center.Tesla swiftly repaired a vandalized Supercharger site in Massachusetts, bringing it back online in under 48 hours. The fire occurred overnight on March 2, 2025, causing wiring and Supercharger post damage, but the main cabinet remained intact.Tesla immediately communicated with customers on X (formerly Twitter), promising repairs within two days.Tesla is considering enhancing its Sentry Mode to deter future vandalism, potentially adding a honking feature.An arson investigation is underway with local police, though no suspects have been identified and the company is offering a $5,000 reward for information on the arsonists.United Airlines has installed its first Starlink system on a regional aircraft, bringing the airline closer to offering free, high-speed Wi-Fi across its fleet.The Starlink system offers free Wi-Fi to MileagePlus members, with speeds up to 250 Mbps—50 times faster than current in-flight internet.Installation is significantly quicker, taking just 8 hours compared to traditional Wi-Fi systems, which require over 10 days.The lighter Starlink equipment (85 pounds vs. up to 300 pounds) improves fuel efficiency and reduces aircraft downtime.United plans to install Starlink on over 40 planes per month, aiming to cover its entire regional fleet of 300 aircraft by the end of 2025."It's kind of enabling the living room in the sky experience," said Grant Milstead, UHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email
SolutionsYou can take action today! Depending on your commitment level, there are multiple ways to achieve measurable reductions in WiFi radiation in your home. Whether you're not quite ready to completely move away from WiFi or you want it gone from your home immediately, here are proven tactics for every situation.Tuning ForkReduce WiFi Sources in Your HomeUpgrade to a WiFi router that eliminates the continuous beacon signal and reduces radiation intensity during data transfers. These routers also offer features like adjustable transmission power and Eco modes, minimizing EMF emissions when not in use. Combine with items 2-4 below if desired.Unplugging your router when not in use, especially overnight, can significantly reduce your exposure to WiFi radiation. Even if you leave WiFi on during the day, turning it off while you sleep reduces exposure by around one-third, without costing anything. This simple step minimizes the constant emission of RF radiation from the router during times when internet access is not needed.A more convenient way to turn your WiFi on and off increases the chances you'll use it regularly, thus maximizing the reduction in EMF exposure. Cheap, easy, effective. You can further reduce WiFi radiation exposure by turning off WiFi on your devices when you're not actively using them. This simple step lowers the amount of radiation your devices emit. Plus, it's completely free—you just need to remember to do it!Purchase an adequate RF meter and learn the basics of RF hygiene through a one hour consult in order to locate other WiFi sources in your home.Reducing audio and video resolution can lower data usage by up to 50 times, significantly decreasing RF radiation emissions. This is because high-definition content, like 4K video (or high-res audio), requires much more bandwidth—up to 25 Mbps for 4K video compared to around 0.5 Mbps for 360p. The higher the resolution, the more data bursts occur, both in frequency and overall volume, leading to increased RF radiation. Lowering video or audio resolution is a simple, free and immediate way to reduce exposure.Eliminate WiFi Sources in Your HomeGo from wireless to wired computing, eliminating 100% of WiFi radiation from your router and your computer. Once installed, don't forget to turn-off the WiFi on your device(s).Purchase an adequate RF meter and learn the basics of RF hygiene through a on Hey this is Keith, this month I'm sharing 3 recent episodes from the EMF Remedy Premium podcast so you can see what we've been up to recently -- behind the pay wall.As I record this brief announcement, we have 118 episodes carefully crafted to support both the winning mindset and technical tactics needed to survive the now ubiquitous electromagnetic poisoning.Two new changes to our podcast subscription model -- We're now offering a 7-day free trial, for thoseSupport the showContinue the journey with the EMF Remedy Premium Podcast, with over 110 episodes and counting!

This Day in Legal History: Lincoln Signs Legal Tender ActOn February 25, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Legal Tender Act into law, allowing the U.S. government to issue paper money not backed by gold or silver. These new notes, called "greenbacks" due to their color, became the first widely circulated fiat currency in American history. The Civil War had placed enormous financial strain on the Union, and the government needed a way to fund its war effort without relying solely on borrowing or taxation. By making greenbacks legal tender for all debts except customs duties, the law ensured their widespread use. However, the move was controversial, as some feared it would cause inflation and undermine public confidence in the currency. Despite this, the greenbacks helped stabilize the wartime economy and ensured that soldiers and suppliers were paid. After the war, legal battles arose over whether the government could require creditors to accept paper money instead of gold or silver. The Supreme Court initially ruled against the policy in Hepburn v. Griswold (1870) but reversed its decision in The Legal Tender Cases (1871), upholding the government's power to issue fiat currency. The Legal Tender Act set a precedent for the federal government's control over the monetary system, paving the way for modern U.S. currency.A federal judge has temporarily blocked Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DGE) from accessing sensitive data held by the U.S. Education Department and the Office of Personnel Management. The ruling, issued by Judge Deborah Boardman in Maryland, came in response to a lawsuit from labor unions arguing that granting DGE access to personal records violated the Privacy Act of 1974. The data in question includes Social Security numbers, addresses, income details, and citizenship status of federal employees and student aid recipients. The Trump administration contended that restricting DGE's access would hinder its government downsizing efforts, but the judge determined that the agency had no legitimate need for such information. The White House has not commented on the decision. Since Trump's return to office, DGE, led by Musk, has pursued aggressive cost-cutting measures, including mass layoffs. The ruling follows another court decision in New York that blocked DGE from accessing Treasury Department systems, amid multiple lawsuits challenging its authority.US judge blocks Musk's DOGE team from accessing Education Department, OPM data | ReutersPresident Donald Trump is set to appoint Kash Patel, the newly confirmed FBI director, as the acting head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), according to a source. Patel, a staunch Trump ally, will oversee both agencies simultaneously, a move that has sparked concerns among Democrats and moderate Republicans who previously opposed his FBI nomination due to his history of targeting Trump's critics. Patel has strong backing from pro-gun groups and is expected to shift the ATF's focus away from firearm regulation. The decision aligns with Trump's campaign rhetoric criticizing the ATF for being overly aggressive toward gun owners. Attorney General Pam Bondi recently fired the agency's top legal counsel, Pamela Hicks, claiming ATF officials had unfairly targeted gun owners. Bondi has also redirected the ATF's priorities toward immigration enforcement. Patel's dual appointment is part of a broader Trump administration strategy, with multiple officials holding multiple roles, including Marco Rubio at the State Department and Russ Vought at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.Trump to name FBI chief Patel as acting ATF director, source says | ReutersFrom a great piece written by Karl Bode for Techdirt, the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) is funding affordable, community-owned broadband networks in underserved areas, challenging monopoly control by major telecom companies. In New York, Oswego County received a $26 million grant to build an open-access fiber network, allowing multiple internet providers to compete over shared infrastructure. The network's primary provider, Empire Access, is offering 500 Mbps service for $50 a month and 1 Gbps for $65, significantly undercutting industry giants like Charter and Verizon.Similarly, Minnesota's Carver County has used ARPA funds to build dark fiber infrastructure, leasing it to MetroNet in a public-private partnership. MetroNet now provides residents with gigabit fiber for $50 and 5 Gbps for $110, far cheaper than traditional providers. This strategy contrasts with other states that continue to funnel broadband subsidies to large telecoms with a history of neglecting rural and low-income areas.Some states—Vermont, Maine, California, and New York—are using federal funds to expand community-owned broadband, treating internet access as an essential utility. However, with an additional $42.5 billion in broadband grants from the 2021 infrastructure bill set to be distributed, the Trump administration and the Department of Government Efficiency (DGE) will likely attempt to redirect these funds toward corporate-backed projects instead of community-driven initiatives.ARPA Is Quietly Funding Cheap ($50-$65 A Month) Community-Owned Gigabit Fiber Access To Long Neglected Neighborhoods | Techdirt This is a public episode.

On this week's show we discuss a couple of solutions to Chuck's Ethernet problem including a revisit of Powerline Ethernet Adapters. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Venu Sports Faces Very Real Prospect of Preliminary Injunction NHL's Florida Panthers Sign ViewLift to Take Them DTC More FAST Viewers Are Dropping Subscription Streaming Services Other: The Ultimate CEDIA 2024 VIP Experience Giveaway! FAQnatics YouTube Nexuslink Gigabit Powerline Adapter A few weeks ago one of our listeners asked us for help trying to run Ethernet data over an HDMI cable. Today, in our email segment, we discussed a novel approach to his problem by just using the HDMI cable as an Ethernet cable by simply removing the connectors and using the existing wires. There is another approach, one that we have discussed many many years ago, using Powerline Adapters. Back in the day, we were happy getting one or two Mbps via these cables and for what we were doing back then it was good enough. However, streaming companies increased their data rates to improve quality and suddenly this approach was dead. If it weren't for listening to a podcast recently I would have never thought to consider this approach. The podcast made the claim that Powerline adapters have gotten much better. To the point where they can reach gigabit speeds. Very skeptical, I went on Amazon and bought the cheapest adapters I could find, the Nexuslinlk G.HN 1200 Wave 1 Powerline Adapter Kit (GPL-1200-KIT) for $40. Features: Includes everything you need in order to turn your electrical outlets into an ultra fast network. Expand your internet anywhere in the home with up to 16 devices in one network. Enhance your network performance for streaming and gaming. Reduces Lag and dropped frames using LDPC/FEC (Forward Error Correction) technology. Designed for high density environments (eg. Apartments, business offices, condos, hotels, etc.) using NDIM Signal Segregation Technology. Delivers better real world performance with unique G.hn algorithms that improve upon older powerline standards. Technology like MIMO Dual Phase Technology delivers a faster and more reliable connection and LDPC to reliably cross phases Installing Ethernet Cable can be expensive and troublesome. Get a strong, direct internet connection without the trouble. Setup: Plug one device into a wall socket and connect the provided Ethernet into your router. It is important that the device is plugged directly into the wall. We tested with extension cables and socket expanders and found they degrade the speed. We also found that wiring into a switch slows the signal down a bit. But to be honest we don't know if that was because we plugged into a switch or that particular wall socket was noisier than the rest. The second adapter can be plugged in anywhere you need a network connection. In our test we chose a socket on the kitchen island and then wired into a laptop. The entire process took about ten minutes. Performance: To measure performance we ran a speed test. We did multiple tests.The fastest time were: Ping 16ms Down 64.13Mbs Up 51.34 Typical speeds were off by three or four Mbps both up and down. For comparison. Using wifi at that location saw: Ping 116ms Down 272.56Mbs Up 109.23 Which is significantly faster! So is it worth it? The speeds we got in our test were nowhere near what was advertised in the product literature. Your results may vary so keep that in mind. However, if you have a spot where your wifi can't reach and you don't want to run Ethernet cables, this solution is recommended without hesitation. At 40 dollars getting 60Mbps to your entertainment system will more than allow you to stream 4K!
On today's podcast, we talk with the CEO of DigitalC, a company that's offering lightning fast-internet to anyone in its service area for just 18-dollars a month, for five years! The service is 100 Mbps download and 100 Mbps upload speeds. Find out how that's been made possible through a unique partnership. Plus, we'll explore the community approach DigitalC takes – that's setting it apart from other, much larger I-S-P's. Recommended Links: DigitalC Website

L'usage des unités de mesure employées dans le secteur informatique ou celui de la téléphonie mobile peut parfois prêter à confusion.Ainsi, certains utilisateurs se demandent parfois si des unités de mesure comme "Mo" et "MB" sont vraiment similaires. Ces termes sont la forme abrégée de "Mégaoctet" et "Mégabyte". Rappelons qu'en informatique, les "octets" sont des unités de mesure de l'information.Ils servent notamment à exprimer la quantité de données stockées. On les utilise ainsi pour mesurer le poids d'un fichier, comme une image ou un document.Cette unité de mesure comprend des subdivisions, comme le kilo-octet, qui correspond à 1 024 octets, ou le mégaoctet, qui équivaut à un million d'octets.Un "mégabyte", abrégé en "MB", est une unité de mesure employée dans les pays anglophones. Elle est l'équivalent du mégaoctet. Le mégabyte est une subdivision du "byte". De même que le mégabyte correspond au mégaoctet, le byte est l'équivalent de l'octet. Donc le mégaoctet et le mégabyte sont bien similaires.S'ils sont parfois confondus, c'est en raison de la similitude existant entre le mégabyte et le "mégabit". Le mégabit est une subdivision du "bit", la plus petite unité d'information numérique.Elle permet d'évaluer la vitesse de transmission des données. Abrégée en "Mb", le mégabit ne doit donc pas être confondu avec le mégabyte, abrégé en "MB". Pour exprimer cette vitesse de transmission, le mégabit est également abrégé en "Mbps", ce qui signifie "mégabit par seconde".Ainsi, si un réseau Internet est estimé à 10 Mbps, cela veut dire que 10 mégabits sont transférés chaque seconde.Si donc le "mégabit" est bien différent du mégaoctet, le "mégabyte", lui, en est bien l'équivalent. Cette similitude se retrouve d'ailleurs dans le mode de conversion de ces unités de mesure en bits. En effet, un octet égale un byte, l'octet comme le byte valant 8 bits.Notons que l'orthographe n'est pas la seule manière de distinguer un "byte" d'un "bit" ou un "mégabyte" d'un "mégabit". En effet, on prononce le premier mot "baïte", pour bien le différencier du second. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
Tools | What to segment | floating data centers Four years ago, we needed to have panels define Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). Today, the federal community recognizes the benefits of ZTA. That was the first hurdle; today, we have a panel that gives the “hows” of implementation, with a focus on micro-segmentation. When Angela Phaneuf worked at the US Army Factory called Kessel Run, they made themselves famous with innovation. Angela gives some practical tips on how to deploy ZTA. She explains that tools can assist in the move to micro-segmentation, however there are many. One approach that has worked for her is to assemble a catalog of tools that can help in a variety of environments. Dr. Cyril “Mark” Taylor shares with the audience his view of the priorities to accomplish change. He mentions policy first, culture, and finally, the technology itself. His experience with the military indicates that once a team has a well-defined goal, the transition can be made. For most of its recent history, the US Coast Guard has had to rely on slow satellite service. Captain Patrick Thompson informs the audience that today's Coast Guard is looking at satellite service that can run as high as one hundred megabits per second (Mbps). Increased speed gives crews the ability to use more compute and storage at the edge – he calls today's ships floating data centers. Sometimes, more data can lead to trouble. A system architect should know where micro-segmentation is a benefit. Dave Zukowski from Akamai suggests one looks at the risk profile of a system – just because they can does not mean they should be integrated.

Three news stories summarized & contextualized by analytic journalist Colin Wright.Netanyahu snaps back against growing US criticism after being accused of losing his way on GazaSummary: Following a speech by US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer last week, in which he said Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had “lost his way” following Hamas' sneak-attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, and in which he called for an election so the people of Israel could potentially put someone else in control of the country and its retaliation against Hamas in Gaza, Netanyahu said that Schumer's comments were inappropriate and offensive, and that Israel will not hold an election at the behest of a foreign government.Context: This was an interesting exchange, as it's assumed that Schumer was serving as a stand-in for the Biden administration, saying things that the US government itself cannot say, and doing so via the highest-ranking Jewish official in the United States; this statement was given in a context in which Israel does seem to be losing a lot of support, their external monetary and military backing still largely in place, but its allies at times going around it to try to help Gazan citizens who are reportedly suffering from war crimes perpetrated by Israeli troops, and who are reportedly starving, en masse, as a result of the Israeli government keeping sufficient aid from flowing into the region.—The Associated PressOne Sentence News is a reader-supported publication.
