Netanyahu fails to manage crisis, war on Hamas/Gaza, but has strategy to stay in power
(CRUX) Nov. 26, 2023: Thousands gathered in Jerusalem protesting PM Bibi Netanyahu’s mishandling of the captive situation and his war against Hamas on Nov. 24.
Jewish protesters with Israeli flags, banners, and signs condemning Netanyahu demand he resign and leave office.
The protesters gathered outside the Israeli prime minister’s residence in Jerusalem, with banners reading “Netanyahu destroyed Israel.”
The protest coincided with a poll showing more than three-quarters of Israelis believe Netanyahu should resign.
A poll published by Israel's Channel 12 found that 76% of Israelis want Netanyahu to step down.
While the Opposition is tightening its grip against Netanyahu, the Israeli PM is looking at a two-fold plan to stay in power.
(Independent.co.uk) Police in Los Angeles are investigating a protest outside the house of the president of the pro-Israeli lobbying group AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee), according to a report. LAPD officers responded to a "disturbance" on Thursday morning in Brentwood, California (near UCLA).
They made no arrests at the scene but were investigating claims of vandalism, assault with a deadly weapon, and are now reportedly treating a protest at the scene as a possible hate crime, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Though the LAPD has a policy of not naming the victims of crimes in their police reports, LA Mayor Karen Bass reportedly identified the victim as Michael Tuchin, an LA attorney who serves as president of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, better known as AIPAC. More

The UNESCO world heritage site of Angkor Wat, the largest religious complex in the world [almost as big as the unexcavated Buddhist temple complex of Mes Aynak, Afghanistan], is facing a humanitarian crisis.
About 10,000 people who live in and around the site have been told that they must move before the new year. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen describes it as “voluntary relocations,” but residents being pushed out of their homes and businesses with very little compensation view it more as forced mass eviction.
Amazing walls of Angkor Wat trace long history of devas and apsaras interacting with humans.
.
Not only Angkor Wat, there are other temples
The temples of Angkor Wat span 400 square kilometers and were designated as a UNESCO world heritage site in 1992.
It is considered one of the most important religious complexes in the world [blending Buddhism and Hinduism], like the Vatican [which blends Mithra worship and Catholicism].
It is also the primary income driver for the town of [archeology-rich] Siem Reap and home to about 10,000 residents who set up shops, offer guide services, and sell food and souvenirs around the complex.
The ancient site was once a myth
But last summer, authorities began showing up at market stalls telling everyone they had to be out by the end of the year at the latest. Some have been offered small plots of land as compensation.
The land is in an undeveloped area about 20 kms from Angkor Wat, which wouldn’t provide much by way of work opportunities for the relocated residents [who would lose thei] vending opportunities they enjoy now]. More
