At the hospital, a baby in a pink shirt, her face covered with sand, cried while receiving first aid. A small boy lay motionless at the other end of the bed, one shoe gone. Many wounded were treated on the floor.

There was “the overwhelming stench of blood,” said Louise Wateridge, a spokesperson with the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees who visited the hospital and spoke with several patients. Staff said there were no cleaning products left.

The blast threw a 2-year-old child into the air and the mother was missing, Wateridge said. Another boy had his feet blown off, while an 8-year-old boy was killed. “They told me to go there to be safe,” his grieving mother told her of the area struck.

Not under their new owner, since he's the one that pushed for the definition change in the first place, among many other blatantly biased changes to the ADL in the past decade.

The fact that this isn't The Onion is just bizarre. I constantly feel like this SMBC comic has to be accurate.

Woof, getting to the source website in that title was a long journey.

Regarding the ad for the event in the replies there, apparently the term "Anglo-Jews" means English speaking. But it's also still a very blatant euphemism for "white European English speaking Jews" because that group makes up almost the entirety of whom the word would be used for.

So, yeah, it is still based on racist undertones regardless.

"Earshot found that with the minimum registered interval of 24 milliseconds, this tank would have to have been positioned just 13 metres away from the car. With the maximum interval of 40 milliseconds, the tank would have still been only 23 metres away from the car. This analysis suggests that the tank had to be positioned within close range (13–23 metres) of the car when it fired the shots that killed Layan. At such proximity, it is not plausible that the shooter could not have seen that the car was occupied by civilians, including children.

Earshot’s audio ballistic analysis supports the final words of Layan Hamada: the gunfire came from a tank that was next to them."



"Comparing the exit hole and varying levels of destruction helps reconstruct the cone of impact from the explosion, and in turn, reveals the direction from which the ambulance was shot (Figure 13). This direction is consistent with the location of Israeli tanks visible in satellite imagery from between 29 January and 8 February.

Our assessment of the position of the tanks at the time of the attack, together with the direction of the shot, suggests that the ambulance was likely hit by ammunition from an Israeli tank."

The issue will be if these temps become standard and consistent over a wider time period. For one, that could adversely affect crop growth and development.

It's happening across the midwest as well. It's supposed to hit 102 on Monday in Nebraska.

The last bird flu that hit humans, if I remember, had a 30% mortality rate. So this should be fun.

My crosspost to gaming@beehaw.org doesn't seem to have any downvotes, so maybe there?

Edit: Do note that the other thread ended up locked because some Gamergate chuds did show up, but the mods did promptly deal with them.

Funny enough, one of the catalysts was Breitbart pushing it. Because they were trying to push that population segment right wing.
