  1. US Intelligence confirming An IDF tour of a different hospital
  2. This is the counter Does 300 liters really only last for 30 minutes? And they didn't refuse it, just wouldn't take it from the IDF.
  3. Viper

    9-1

  4. Gerry said Brooks was on crutches after the game last night, not in a boot, so definitely knee not ankle, but we probably all knew that.
  5. yeah I hate those channels that put out the fake fan trailers. Google has finally added the ability to tell it to stop recommending specific youtube channels in android.
  6. So humans are the jews, Dafyd (David in Welsh), is Daniel, and the Carryx are the Babylonians?
  7. More background of the kazak language thing A handful of folks have asked why this is notable. After all, a Kazakh president speaking Kazakh shouldn't be surprising. And that's precisely the point: while it shouldn't be a surprise, the Russian delegation fully expected him to speak Russian. Normally that's what's happens: leaders of former Soviet states speak Russian with their Russian counterparts. Both as a matter of deference, practicality but also as a remnant of the Soviet past and the behavior expected by a colonial master of a presumed satellite state. It is in this context -- and especially in light of the constant drumbeat of Russian politicians making territorial claims on Kazakhstan -- Tokayev choosing to open in Kazakh is a power move and sends a clear signal to the Kremlin.
  8. I think it was less that he's the tree and more that Loki replaced the analogy of the timelines needing to be woven into a single thread to be weaved to the timelines being a tree that branches out and and grows.
  9. Apparently the new massacre denialism is to use unrelated videos to claim it was the IDF that shot the civilians at the peace festival
  10. Dark mode reveals that his source is copied text from the Quinn Ewers thread
  11. The ground invasion has been going smoother than I expected. It looks like they're encountering some large resistance now
  12. Not just weapons
  13. One thing I have been puzzled by are cries for a ceasefire but never any explanation on how that would work. Shadi Hamid has an outline of his idea for one in the Washington Post today. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/11/08/gaza-cease-fire-israel-negotiation-hamas/ So many parts of this just seem fanciful (especially since Hamas has said they won't stop attacking civilians), but at least it's a plan. Lebanese writer Hussain Abdul Hussain is likewise dubious of how realistic this plan is
  14. I would hope Israel and the US are working with the Saudis on how to do that, even better if the Saudis bomb it themselves. They can't like all these missiles going over their land. In good news, Palestinians are moving south out of Gaza city in the corridors the IDF set up.
  15. Looks like Russia is up to their old tricks
  16. Check first post or immamacs map on the previous page
  17. Hadn't thought about that either, but on OTF this morning someone asked if Hudson can play LG and Bobby said he hopes so (implying that he's going to play there either way).
  18. This seems like the next outrage spreading around today. NPR Reporter is pessimistic There's about 8 more tweets in the thread so click the thread reader link for the rest https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1720431360609755410.html
