  • Amazon’s cloud based Simple Storage Service (hence the S3). It is, in ELI5 terms, a file storage service like Microsoft’s OneDrive or Apple’s iCloud. A bit like a harddrive reached over the internet. You transfer files to and from it.

    That’s grossly oversimplifying of course. S3 has some important technical differences to a straight up “cloud drive”. And it comes with a mind boggling array of options so it can be customised to be the storage of all sorts of very large real world applications and websites.














  • It’s not though is it? “From the river to the sea” is referring to a Palestinian territory spanning from the Mediterranean to the Jordan. It’s referring to establishing a state over that area the exact same way Jews use it. The question meta weighed up was not “what are state actors doing”. Because if they had done so and had decided the saying was explicitly support for Hamas then they would have banned it, because Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organisation according to the US.

    Instead they explain they just because an individual says it, then the reader cannot infer the support of a state level group like Hamas. Nor is the saying in itself an encouragement to hurt Jewish people.

    But this also means of a Jewish individual says it then the reader cannot infer support of the action of a state level group like the Israeli government. Nor can it be taken in itself to be an explicit encouragement to violence against Palestinians.

    Cake and eat it etc.

    (Also, since it came up, over 70% of Jews in Israel were born in Israel. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israelis. I assume you’re not the kind of person to say “but where are you really from?”)
