Coulda been that pesky war flour you're always hearing about

Need to go gluten free. Then people can eat.

Need to go gluten free. Then people can eat.

You bring up a good point. It is possible that some of the IDF there have a gluten allergy and saw the food truck as a threat.

I tend to think they took out the truck for their sake as they know gluten is bad for them.

Of course you would think they were doing it to help the Palestinians.

The first I heard about this was yesterday, today it's already happening.



Admiral Stavridis has a suggestion.

A General Hertling thread:

 

[Zack Lee]

it’s pretty clear that this isn’t a case of good guys vs bad guys but where do you go in a negotiation with a group who won’t even verify what they are negotiating with. Hamas has no desire to negotiate for the Palestinian people. Are Palestinians still supporting hamas or if they had the ability, would they go after them themselves? I understand they hate the IDF, but what percentage also hate hamas?

This upsets me:

Ecological 'disaster' as Houthi-sunk ship leaches fertilizer into sea

Water supplies for millions, a vibrant fishing industry and some of the world's largest coral reefs are at risk after a cargo ship was sunk by Yemen's rebels.

I talked about that ship at the time and thought it was in reasonable shape to be sailed away, or at least towed away.

What I didn't know was the crew had completely abandon it and never returned. Even a small problem will sink an abandon ship if several days are allowed to elapse. Someone has to be there to do things like turning things on, and turning things off, like pumps.

Who didn't do what it took to keep it afloat was its owners. Which irritates me because it probably was insured against sinking. This is what happens when a scuzzy company owns a ship, sometimes a ship is better off sunk for a company's bottom line.

This way an insurance company pays for the loss. The other way a ship's owner would have had to pay a shipyard in a distant place a lot for repairs.

If he's concerned, then I'm concerned.

Why does it have to be Ukraine who waves the white flag? They didn't invade anyone.

Because Russia has nukes.
