Let's see what the Wall Street Journal has to say... Netanyahu Wisely Arms Gaza Clans to Fight Hamas Critics assail Israel for employing a strategy the U.S. used in World War II, Afghanistan and Iraq. https://www.wsj.com/opinion/netanyahu-wisely-arms-gaza-clans-to-fight-hamas-strategy-war-2f69a742
The courtyard by the emergency entrance is in the hospital. The blast wave tore up the corridor inside the hospital and the six were blasted well away. He just can’t help toying with being our teacher. Having no military experience, he has no concept of what happens near a detonation. I had four stents put in years after a blast near me, damage from the pressure wave. My arteries took mechanical damage, and so did my nerves. If you’ve never felt how a jelly trifle reacts to a sledgehammer, you won’t get it. Even those who didn't die that moment are pretty fucked. Well more "firstly" with no secondly and "Let's see what.." and "Lets catch up.." Autopilot nonsense to come. For now.
Let's catch up with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) and their chaotic efforts to provide food aid in Gaza. The GHF has stopped aid for one day periods multiple times in an attempt to improve the security of the aid sites. Apparently to no avail. Desperate Palestinian mobs keep attempting to overrun the sites. Hamas has been threatening anyone accepting GHF aid and executing some of them (or stealing the aid packages as they leave). Gunman have been deliberately provoking firefights with the IDF near GHF aid sites. The IDF has either been firing at Palestinians or firing in the air -- depending on which narrative you want to believe. At this point, you can only state that the GHF aid distribution is a failed effort. Putting up high fences to lead hungry people down narrow corridors near IDF positions simply is not going to work out. The sites are easy for Hamas to deliberately attack and provoke an IDF response -- leading to civilian casualties. The fenced corridors can lead to trampling by desperate crowds and no cover when gunfire erupts. There needs to be another plan for food distribution which will keep the food from being resold by Hamas or from looting of trucks by armed clans or desperate crowds. I don't know what that solution is. Maybe go back to using airdropped of lighter food packages. Get involvement from international organizations (which are not UNRWA) going again.

You need to go watch the BBC video which shows the CCV. The guy sitting on the plastic chair on the porch right where the bunker busting bomb enters the ground gets up and walks away. Certainly shaken up. If he walked away from it then someone can explain how people inside the hospital behind him were killed. I will note that the initial reports stated that only people outside the hospital were killed by the "nearby strike" in the courtyard. There are signs of things shaken loose in the hospital (plaster, etc. from walls) in the video but no signs of fiery blast wave entering the hospital at the entrance. Otherwise the walls would be blackened and items would be smoking. I am sure that Hamas would make sure to film actual fiery blast wave damage inside the hospital if it was severe enough to cause immediate deaths of those inside the emergency entrance.
I did watch it. You know when a person is sitting down they are lower? Being lower is good. You have no clue. These use two stages plus kinetic. If I commented on the plaster being off walls in the corridor, do you fucking think I didn't watch it.?? Also the unedited version? OK, well I'm off to my forge Mr Lebowski Snr. Be seeing you. Oh I forgot, they admitted after they hit the wrong place, should have been the school nearby...
Sweden tells Greta to buzz off and get lost. Next time don't "travel contrary to the advice given to a place". Additionally Sweden tells Greta's idiot supporters to stop calling consular phone lines reserved for Swedish citizens facing real crisis's abroad who are in actual need for help. Sweden snubs Greta Thunberg's plea for help on board 'freedom flotilla': Country's blunt response as activist says she has been 'kidnapped' by Israel after Gaza-bound vessel was sprayed by 'irritant substance' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14794683/sweden-snubs-greta-thunberg-freedom-flotilla.html Sweden has rejected Greta Thunberg's plea for help on board the 'freedom flotilla' after Israeli commandos intercepted the vessel on its approach to Gaza. Maria Malmer Stenergard, the Swedish Minister of Foreign Affairs, said on Monday that she believes Thunberg is not in need of support from the ministry after the climate activist called on followers to pressure the government into action. 'A great responsibility rests on those who choose to travel contrary to the advice given to a place,' she said outside the Swedish parliament, as protestors gathered in Stockholm to demand an intervention. The minister lamented that, as a result of Greta's plea, the consular hotline had received a high volume of calls that meant Swedes 'in need' abroad were being held in long queues for assistance. 'It is quite dangerous to run a campaign that means that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' consular hotline is called down,' she said, adding: 'The consequence is that Swedes in need abroad have to wait in line for far too long.' Stenergard suggested she did not believe Thunberg needed help, but assured: 'If she needs consular support, we will do everything we can, just as we do with all Swedish citizens.' Israel has claimed that all passengers on board the charity vessel are 'safe and unharmed'. The foreign ministry said today it expects the activists to return to their home countries. Protestors have called on the governments of the 12 crew members to act after the activists claimed to have been 'intercepted and kidnapped' in international waters some 100 miles from the coast of Gaza.

Daily mail... If you didn't have low standards you would have none at all. Its always the fault of protestors for protesting with you. Why not invite Greta to join us here at ET where she can make a real difference? You could share your thoughts on letter writing. Right back to work, annealing oven is done.
As expected, Greta and the "Selfie Yacht" passengers are being immediately deported. Greta Thunberg and 'freedom flotilla' activists are dragged to airport to be deported, Israel says - and will face court if they refuse to leave https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...-Greta-Thunbergs-lawyer-demanded-answers.html The 'freedom flotilla' activists have arrived at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport to be deported, Israel has confirmed. Taking to X at around 1:20am, the Israel Foreign Ministry said: 'Some of the "Selfie Yacht" passengers are expected to leave within the next few hours. 'Those who refuse to sign deportation documents and leave Israel will be brought before a judicial authority, in accordance with Israeli law, to authorize their deportation. Consuls from the passengers' home countries met them at the airport.' (More at above url)
Wow, Israel is a place of law and order, I was mistaken about everything. They can't have just committed a crime if there are forms to fill. 'Those who refuse to sign deportation documents and leave Israel will be brought before a judicial authority, in accordance with Israeli law, to authorize their deportation.' Israel has a history of pressuring detained activists to sign deportation papers under duress. In 2010, after the Mavi Marmara raid, some activists reported being forced to sign documents in Hebrew they couldn’t read. The ones who refused were sent home anyway after international condemnation of the massacre of ten men, none of whom had guns, including one American. See what you do is spray live fire and paintballs in the middle of the night from a helicopter and when some pick up iron bars and such, you can claim you, special forces, were afraid for you life. Neat trick. This is exactly why Greta's lot were conspicuously submissive, positioned for the boarding and already wearing life vests.
