A cartoon king is dangling over a pit of lava. He says, “If you don’t match the colored shapes, I die!” Time runs out and the screen blurs, so you can’t see the king’s death. The text “You have failed your king…” appears as you hear the king’s heartbeat slow to a stop. This game is called Vacation Match Relaxation.
On a plane, a poor traveler is berated by his fellow passengers for downloading the wrong slot machine game. A stewardess takes pity on the weeping traveler and tells him that he should have just downloaded Dollar Dash Cash Frenzy, which is a good game that doesn’t lie about jackpots. The stewardess claps, and thousands of gold coins explode across the screen, which makes your phone freeze.
An insultingly simple crossword puzzle with the clue “Three-letter word for a pet?” A hand drags the letters A, T, and C into incorrect combinations for a full twenty seconds until a red X pops up, along with the words, “Your brain is ninety-seven years old, and your family has decided to pull the plug.” This game is not available to download in your country.

It’s hard to overstate how massive this is. Netanyahu can’t travel to Europe unless Europe gets rid of the Rome statute, in which case that’s pretty much the end of international law. Or they can hope these two prosecutions are all there will be, but if you’ve already gone after Netanyahu, why stop?
Of course the US can sanction the Criminal Court, but talk about a huge propaganda and legitimacy loss.

I want to take readers through some of my previous writing on ideology and character, and how they help form the societies in which we live. Taking the time to read these articles (a short book’s worth), should vastly improve your understanding of the world and the articles to come. It should be worth your time, even if you read the articles when they were previously published, as, at the time, they lacked both context and commentary, and were not collated to be read together so that the connections were obvious.
