Ah yes, cruel Israelis.

They kill dissidents, use human shields and broadcast murderous anti-Muslim propaganda on their main television networks. The most democratic country in the region is truly despicable.

Some people tend to forget that there are nearly TWO MILLION Muslims living, working, praying and enjoying all the social benefits of the most agreeable country in the region. Anyone care to guess the number of Jews in the West Bank or Gaza?

This is the primary reason I moved from computer vision to clinically oriented human vision research. All of the capital is flowing towards these projects. Further, the move is from remotely controlled, unmanned vehicles, to autonomous agents. What do we do when we can't even rely on the human conscience (say a merciful soldier) to mitigate atrocities? This sort of technology completely masks the human cost of war.

What safeguard against tyranny still exists in such a world? A legion of merciful programmers?

If I had my way, we'd just settle it with a bunch of knife fights at the UN.
