#OTD in 1938. Orson Welles broadcasts a radio adaptation of H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds, which caused some listeners to believe that a Martian invasion was in fact occurring, resulting in a massive panic in some of the audience in the US.
The novel even influenced the work of scientists. Robert H. Goddard was inspired by the book, and helped develop both the liquid-fuelled rocket & multistage rocket. via @Wikipedia

Gaza is a convenient distraction I guess.
Can I just ask: How in the name of everything unholy has there been no international press coverage of the UK's efforts to intern asylum seekers on what is, by any reasonable definition, prison barges!?
It's like this: If any group of Brown People™️ anywhere in the world does anything that can be categorized as aggresive, expect headlines in the entire western world - but when white people essentially dismantle civilizaion all we get is the sound of crickets...

@MartinVeart @zleap @Rhodium103 @drskyskull Chomsky has certainly called out the US and Israel in the past. What worries me is the way in which he has bought into nonsense and disinformation, esp where it comes to Syria and Russia's involvement there.

Possible illegal deportation plans:
Multiple sources are sharing this document (picture 1), allegedly showing Israel's four step plan to push all residents of Gaza south into Egypt through multiple military operations sweeping the Gaza strip from north to south.
If this is true, the government of Israel is planning an illegal deportation of over 2 million people.
Multiple sources are presenting a translation similar to the one found in picture 2.
Does anyone on Mastodon read Hebrew?
