Their last attack killed a single Palestinian and Israel just destroyed their air defense with planes in response. There is no scenario where Iran comes out ahead in this. Does the Supreme Leader think he has a chance, does he think he has to do this to save face to retain power, or is it just suicidal hatred of Jews and the West?

The 25th is a Wednesday, not a Tuesday like he was wanting. Tuesday is nice because you get a four-day weekend without using any days off. (Though, usually you’d get the next off if it was a Monday or Sunday or whatever.) I think the best is Friday or Monday because then New Year’s gives you a three-day weekend too.

It will copy to the clipboard if possible. You can probably get it working with a bit of tinkering: https://github.com/zyedidia/micro/blob/master/runtime/help/copypaste.md

Israel definitely did its part, but I’m just saying Gaza was way better off even just on October 6th before Hamas started the war.

Mass murderers objectively have a pretty low value of human life. But there’s also the fact that he started an organization to send people to their deaths, brought unprecedented war to Gaza, stole humanitarian aid, stole millions of dollars, and has adamantly rejected any peace talks.

Here’s a pretty in-depth article on him.

He was literally convicted in 1989 of murdering 12 Palestinians. He only got out of prison because Israel cured his cancer and traded him for some hostages. He also killed 15 fellow Palestinians while in prison. Not to mention the whole founding Hamas thing which has done nothing but made the tragedy in Gaza ten times worse. He tanked any effort towards a two-state solution and insisted that an Arab-only ethnostate was the only acceptable solution, and he was willing to kill as many young men as required to try to make that happen.

Cuba has powered itself by relying on cheap oil imports from Venezuela and Russia. As both of them have slid towards collapse, it is speculated that Cuba is flat out running out of the bargain fossil fuels it relies on to operate. This is now causing widespread blackouts as the country continues to fall apart.
