Gaza - conflict, war, land, water rights, bad colonional legacies...

Interesting attitude to civilians getting killed with your first point there. Given Israeli conscription, that could cut the other way in a real nasty way. Also does ignore the time passed due to election and the ages of people involved. Not even sure the relevance of your second point, but seems to be reflexive response these days. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/10/30/canada-clarifies-its-stand-on-a-humanitarian-truce-00124372 Interesting balancing act with domestic politics here, well and I guess in other countries -

The evidence that was a suicide bomber (or VBIED if I want to be some jargon wanker) people come up with is interesting, if just for the idea of trying to. The camera crew already filming, or the fact that the car has gas means they must be Hamas as no one else has fuel, or some secondary explosion I still can't quite see. Sucks to not be 'relatively civilized', I guess. -

Not the worst cover. Starr's can't be beaten in my mind, though -

For sure, just found the presentation a bit silly. Not as silly as the guy bringing a rock to a UN meeting and acting like it was a WMD. -
Haven't tested, but do bodies still explode into nothing when you drop them ?

Looks like the invasion or whatever operation they're doing is going to kick off soon. Air strikes picking up https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-middle-east-67223217 -

Well Hamas have a bizarre relationship with morals, so I don't expect much from them. Even if they did I don't think Israel would agree - don't negotiate with terrorists - and invade anyway. International pressure matters not as the US is always going to back them (I guess the US vassal, the UK as well). At least the UN bickering continues - https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2023/10/25/israel-gaza-russia-us-united-nations/ -

Was just an amusing story and an overreaction in my eyes -

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.” -
