https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/25/israel-says-it-will-ban-un-staff-after-secretary-generals-comments "Speaking at a UN general debate on the Middle East in New York, Guterres created fury when he said: “It is important to … recognise the attacks by Hamas did not happen in a vacuum. The Palestinian people have been subjected to 56 years of suffocating occupation.” He also said no injustice to the Palestinians could justify the appalling attacks by Hamas. Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, said on army radio: “Due to his remarks we will refuse to issue visas to UN representatives. We have already refused a visa for undersecretary general for humanitarian affairs, Martin Griffiths. The time has come to teach them a lesson.”

It was just a feint.

Each day I ask myself, what would Ja think.

So, wait, is it an FPS ?

New D4 season is fun, the Bloodtides always give you something to do, also nice that World Bosses appear more frequently. Trying a ranged rogue, but the call of Flurry is too strong.

They sure freak out over nothing much here

One of the rules in the rules based order.

Convenient.

Go to grocery A, buy 12 of an item. Go to grocery B and see item on sale for $1.50 less each. Unable to properly articulate the rage I experienced

Wonder how long until IDF intelligence claims Hamas is seizing the 12 trucks and JDAMs them.

The permanent members are all hypocrites, though, so guess no point in doing that.

Watching more Russian dubs of Star Wars films, as I have the lines near memorized it's great practice

Clever approach to market Ukraine aid as an indirect stimulus for the US economy, heh. Rest of the speech was eh. I was puzzled at people praising it, but remembered a lot are just Slava Ukraini types, hah. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/19/us/politics/transcript-biden-speech-israel-ukraine.html

That's bold of them to try it at that distance

Fun day at work when a mission critical server is identified as compromised for some reason and blacklisted from network. Then everyone who logged in to check the issue is also blacklisted. Obviously our security team is led by Ripley

Avoids enraging their people further. If you're mad about Gaza, having the US president freshing from fluffing Bibi visit isn't going to enhance your calm. Besides any real work is done by lower level people, I think, before hand. But at least some aid will get in, conditional on Hamas not seizing it. Which will be observed and proven by Israel or the US I suppose. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/19/gaza-aid-rafah-crossing-joe-biden-israel-egypt-agreement

US isn't really a fair mediator being a solid ally to Israel, though. And makes sense, given the rage that explosion provoked

https://www.reuters.com/world/us-vetoes-un-security-council-action-israel-gaza-2023-10-18/ I thought for sure this one would have avoided the veto

Israel needs to hire Ukrainians on how to run the info war.

Maybe, people are on media for reporting "Hamas claims.." as if that doesn't already make people skeptical. I guess they should have said "Explosion in Gaza.." just to be extra clear, as everyone are morons. Given the IAF working over Gaza, and they did hit the same hospital on Oct 14, people suspecting an Israeli strike weren't out to lunch as well. Speaking of media my mom likes watching MSNBC, coverage was having a good wank over Biden's visit, was pretty funny. Although I guess not really sure what the point of it was, Blinken already fluffed up Israel plenty.

Going from lvl 1 to 5 just walking to the first quest objective was amusing. Mount is nice and fast now.
