amini died after being in police custody, and to me this uprising, i see you know, i don t think these are women and it is a women-led activist, but it s not that women are protesting the hijab law, this mandatory law where you have to cover. they re protesting this way of life. they are saying enough is enough. and so this idea of being in the streets you know, i remember being a teenaged girl, having to worry about the religious beliefs, seeing if i was covered enough, ensuring that my legs were covered and my hair was covered. the fact that these teenage girls when you re raised consciously and subconsciously in this world where you think you have to cover yourself, to free yourself, to me the courage that takes but how fed up they are. iranian women have been protesting the hijab law in one way or another for the last 43 years. but think about the fact that 65% of university graduates are women in iran, 70% of subgraduates are women. if these women had the freedom t
so we have made a concerted decision to transfer wealth from young people to olderer people. the pandemic and the bailouts were not allowing the gail force winds of destruction to blow, which, in fact, transfers wealth in older to younger people. when you say the baby boomerer s restaurant, you re take wag for the opportunity for a younger person to come in and buy that business on the cheap. you mentioned the 80s. when aapplied to ucla, the acceptance rate was 76%. this year is 6%. we have entered into a dangerous mentality of rejectionism and exclusivity where we decide once i have a college degree, i don t want anyone else to get into my alma mater so the value goes up. and once i have a tech company, i m going to stick my elbows out. it s not about the top 1%. america is about giving remarkable opportunities to the 99% below that. we need to fall back in love with the unremarkables.
well, i hope that he changes his mind, because i remain committed to a vision of two states for two peoples in which a demilitarized palestinian state recognizes the jewish state. and the peace process began over two decades ago, and yet despite the best efforts of six israeli prime minister, rabin, perez, barack, shimon, olmert and myself, the palestinians have consistently refused to end the conflict and make a final peace with israel. and unfortunately, you heard that rejectionism yet again only yesterday from president abbas. how can israel make peace with a palestinian partner who refuses to the even sit at the e
peoples in which a demilitarized palestinian state recognizes the jewish state. the peace process began over two decades ago. yet despite the best efforts of six israeli prime ministers, rabin, perez, and myself, the palestinians have consistently refused to end the conflict and make a final peace with israel. and unfortunately, you heard that rejectionism yet again only yesterday. how can israel make peace with a palestinian partner who refuses to even sit at the negotiating table? israel expects the palestinian authority to abide by its commitments.
the number by taking votes from the far right. he did it at the cost of ending the pretense that netanyahu can be a man to work with on peace. he unmasked himself. they adto say that arafat was unmasked, but he was unmasked by declaring there would be no palestinian state, and the pretext of supporting a peace process, was just that. it was not sincere. that means on the palestinian issue prime minister netanyahu, of course the focus is at the white house, and he s at loggerheads with the white house, but he s also at loggerheads with the rest of the world. i don t think that means it s an end to the u.s. relationship, but i think it makes for a bumpy road. i think he ll have a tough time. in the last government, he could put a figure leaf or smiling face with his coalition allies on his own rejectionism. he won t be able to do that this time around.
