Depends on the stash. Rockets & mortars, those I’ve got no room in my garage for.

Oh hardly. It was funny. You should really give it a watch above. It’s one of the anchors from Australia for sky news.

My only knowledge of it comes from the Will Ferrell movie, that I haven’t actually watched, but I’ve seen previews for. The post above (Greta) where the host called her a “Doom Goblin” had me laughing earlier this morning…

If I’m seiging anything, it won’t be Gaza or Israel. Neither is on my travel bucket list.

Is the Eurovision Song Contest the most insightful window into western society and politics we currently have? As usual, the 2024 show delivered a memorable night of the fun, the bizarre and the weird. It was also highly politically charged as contestants voiced their opposition and...

Ellie May & the band of 10 are busy beavers (or the Middle East equivalent of beavers?)!

Based on his rhetoric, Canadians might think that Jagmeet Singh was a harsh critic of the Trudeau government — one who holds the Liberals to account. Yet, by his actions, Canadians who are paying attention will quickly realize that Singh has turned his party into a doormat for the Liberals to...

The United Nations has significantly adjusted Palestinian casualty figures (from the Hamas run Gaza Health Authority) for the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip, halving the number of women and children previously reported killed. But they’re only counted once each, unless each one identifies as...

Flip flop…flip flop…flip flop…flip flop…

About $18.25 in American dollars for comparison. Almost all of that’s tax’s. Black market smokes are $6-$10/20 pack & those have been stepped on pricewise repeatedly before reaching the Prairies. (last time I was in Cuba, cheapest pack of smokes converted to about $0.65 USD…but about 15yrs...

And somewhere between the two extremes from the two sides…may or may not be the truth. I totally hear you.

So if the middle ground is 2.5 battalions (so 2500-ish militants) plus 5 of 10 more & 1/2,of an Ellie May still in Rafah alone? That fair?

Yep, in the competing narrative against Hamas media wing, about the Hamas military wing, with opposing numbers from the Hamas run Gaza Health Ministry wing. The truth may or may not be somewhere in the middle. So there’s probably somewhere between 5 battalions or 10-11 individuals from Hamas...

Sounds like there might be a few more than 10 & Ellie May. Hamas will not submit or surrender. Israel claims that half of Hamas's fighters have been killed but every day the IQB demonstrates that it is still capable of fierce resistance. There remain at least five active battalions, now broken...

Here’s an interesting letter in the Calgary Sun: Over the past several years I have spent some big bucks into making my tiny 1978 three-bedroom abode in Silver Springs into a more energy-efficient domicile. I had the original windows replaced with the best triple-pane windows money could buy. I...

I don’t know if Uyghurs are so much forgotten as ignored. Since 2014, the Chinese government has been accused by various organizations, such as Human Rights Watch of subjecting Uyghurs living in Xinjiang to widespread persecution, including forced sterilization and forced labor. Scholars...

Anywho UNRWA as a division of the UN on Friday, the UN General Assembly — which every year passes more resolutions condemning Israel than all other nations on earth, combined — voted in favour of granting UN membership to a yet-to-be created Palestinian state, by a margin of 143 to 9 with 25...
