To wit, a blockade of the Gulf of [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[For decades, two irreconcilable narratives about Israel and its motivations have existed in parallel. On the one side, an official western narrative portrays a plucky, besieged “Jewish” state of Israel, desperate to make peace with its hostile Arab neighbors. Even to this day, that story dominates the political, media and academic landscape. Time and again, [&#8230;]]]></description>

One of the main methods used by government to convince the population of their legitimacy is the tool of propaganda. This is nothing new, and states throughout the world have engaged in this practice for all of human history. What is new, [&#8230;]]]></description>

This decision by Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi marks the definitive end of the 1967-era &#8220;Three Principles on Transfer of Defense Equipment,&#8221; effectively dismantling the final legal barriers of postwar pacifism. This is more than a policy tweak; it [&#8230;]]]></description>
