it is, BUT, if you read between the lines of the requirements, there's plenty of room for pragmatic atheists (in pragmatic packs/troops). It's not perfect, but overall Scouting has absolutely embraced inclusiveness.

The reality of global geopolitics stands as evidence against your assertion being correct. It's similar, that's true enough, but there are some key differences:

Back then, the six-day-war was fresh, Israel and its allies had proven Israel couldn't be easily destroyed, and Israel learned it is vulnerable. Lots of local opposition to its actions in Egypt and Lebanon.

Today: Israel is in a much better defensive position, and is actively the aggressor with little pretense. Lots of local support for a very aggressive PM that is hell bent on openly killing all the Palestinians.

It's very worse, and very different today.

I'm not saying he's in the right, I'm just directly comparing the current PM of Israel with the guy from your Regan quote. It's not the same situation: Netanyahu, sadly, is being encouraged to continue on his path, and nothing will change until he's ousted.

This article reads like it was written by two people fighting over the same keyboard.

We only get a summary, not a transcript, but:

I think this speaks far more about Netanyahu than it does about Biden. I have no doubt he'd double down on the crazy if the U.S. unilaterally ceased support, even going so far as to threaten or use nukes. Menachem was under significant economic and political pressure in his own country at the time, Netanyahu isn't facing that yet. His own people will have to force his hand before a foreign leader can.

Themselves. I'm just saying internally they run it like an investment fund. Example: https://medium.com/design-ibm/area-631-what-i-learned-in-ibms-start-up-and-innovation-program-d87ed98f9549

It's basically an investment fund that runs the companies it invests in, like Alphabet, but with a bigger mix of real estate and finance investments thrown in.

IBM is 100, but the Internet didn't exist in 1924, so we'll say the clock starts in 1989. I'm pretty sure at least MS or IBM will be around in 15 years.

Imagine scrolling back in the Slack chat 50 years to find that one thing someone said about how the chip bypass worked.

The gate is a 1/5 wall that is indestructible and has deathtouch.
