And then other problems would perhaps turn up down the track that would call for "discovering new ways to discover new ways of discovery" and so on.

If it got tested and verified, wasn't their WiFi Alliance certification supposed to be revoked?

And a question at the bottom asking “do you feel the urge to wash your hands with soap?"

When Iraq occupied Kuwait, all out assault was launched within months.
Israel continues to occupy lands for decades and brazenly keeps committing land theft in addition to mowing the lawn on a regular basis in violation of the international laws. US obediently keeps shielding it from the law with the UN Security Council vetos. Something very disproproportionate there indeed.
Even this Israeli newspaper is amused at this history of slavery on the part of the US govt.: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-02-17/ty-article/.p...
And US violates its own law in donating this huge pile of murder weapons to this occupying party: Section 502B(a)(2) (22 U.S.C. 2304(a)(2)) stipulates that "no security assistance may be provided to any country the government of which engages in a consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights." https://sgp.fas.org/crs/weapons/IF11197.pdf
B'tSalem/HRW/Amnesty have voluminous records of the said violations.

Indeed, there is some theocratic elements[0-2] in what drives the pogrom and extermination of a people through periodically “mowing the lawn” and sustained land theft at massive scale.

You are responsible for your own actions (or the predictable consequences thereof) — that’s the basic rule at play here. Any normal court would deem providing murder weapons to the murderer and shielding the murderer from the law an offense.
US taxpayers are privy to knowing what they are sponsoring with their tax dollars. The newspapers are supposed to be part of that process.

In the case of butchering Palestinians, unlike the others, key elements are US murder weapons (material assistance) and Vetos at UN SC to shield from international consequences.
An US newspaper has naturally extra newsworthiness in that. No less than they had with “collateral murder” video (cf. Wikileaks).

Do those who think in the same line as Haaretz columnist Gideon Levy also warrants being cancelled?

The same machinery and MO that treacherously took down Jeremy Corbyn apparently.

To their credit, they’ve been consistent with their promise throughout these 10-15 years: “we’d deliver in three years”.

Sanders probably isn’t saying that the US is identical to Russia. But the oligarchic nature in terms of policy preferences and influence when it comes to governance in the US seems to be a settled issue, per the 2014 landmark study [0].
