Dozens were killed and many more injured in a blast at the Al-Maghazi refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip late Saturday night, according to an official at a nearby hospital and eyewitnesses who spoke with CNN.
But gee, I wonder why there have been military actions against those places? Nothing is sacred. Ambulances as troop transports, command centers dug under hospitals, bombs built in refugee camps.
The native tribes mostly did have gunpowder by that point, they were very motivated to trade for rifles and ammunition and the US government sold them rifles and ammunition through the Indian Agency.
Why would he offer Hamas more time to abuse their hostages? I’m sure that Israel would happily agree to a ceasefire if they returned their captives and turned over the criminal animals who started this war.

This is a very clear violation of the first amendment. Their rhetoric is ghastly and apologism for Hamas is beyond the pale.
But this is a free country. College students must be free to advocate for their own ideas, no matter how fucked up they are, unless they get to the point of actually inciting violence here in the US.
Rodrigues, for his part, seized on a portion of the toolkit that labeled the attack, now known as “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood” as “the resistance”
Yeah, they are. That’s really, really gross. If I was a member of a local org whose national org told me to refer to a massive terrorist attack on civilians as “the resistance” I’d either quit the local org or demand it disassociate.
You should also watch out for people who say “from the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free”. They might be just naive, but the Arabic original version of that phrase is an explicit call to genocide or at best ethnic cleansing.

Also, there’s a pretty good chance that data from the imploded submarine can go towards making future submarines safer. But it’s harder to get that data without recovery
You’d have a good point except for the fact that Hamas governs the Gaza Strip. So, it’s like blaming the government of Ukraine for the actions of the Ukrainian government.
Also, don’t think I missed you making up anti-Russian pogroms in Ukraine, buddy

They used bulk concrete and well fitted stone. Bulk concrete doesn’t really decay but is hard to build with, so we typically reinforce it with rebar. Rebar makes concrete much stronger and less brittle, but it also corrodes, and when the rebar fails, so does the reinforced concrete.
We could build things like the Romans did, but it would be more limited and expensive.
For their place of business? No, that’s pretty clearly something they can set up within the terms of working for the state government or contracting for them.
