Allah'u Akhbar!

The mother of Shani Louk, an Israeli-German woman thought to have been kidnapped by Hamas gunmen at a music festival in Israel, says her daughter is dead.
Speaking to German media, Ricarda Louk said she had been told by the Israeli military that a DNA sample taken from part of a skull bone proved to be Shani's.
Her body has not yet been found.

But, but, Hamas kept saying she was alive. Hamas wouldn't lie to the world, would they?

And that, my friends, is a major part of this current problem...Much of the media takes the garbage Hamas feeds them and reports it as news.

She seemed dead in the video where she was lying in truck bed.

Yes. I believe I posted that video the day after the attack.

I bet Hamas released her and those damn Jews thought it would look better for them if she was dead. Lying murderous bastards!

Edit to add, this is of course some of the responses seen, not my own personal view…

Some good news

So they still figure their greatest threat is not Israel. Good thinking.

I've seen Blinken interviewed before. Politics notwithstanding, he's a good example of the type of clear, professional, not-old-as-fuck leader we could use in the white house these days.

Not exactly

"We do not support Taiwan independence."

It’s worth looking at how the Arab world is seeing this.

Remember the government of Qatar owns that and they’re the brokers.

Israel cuts Gaza in two.

"Well someone is going to get from the river to the sea."

Very interesting to see this with modern 3D mapping... the Israel-controlled area will double or more in a second once they move through the rural areas.

@copper, not to "derail" this thread but official US policy is that Taiwan is not independent and the US has never supported independence officially. Kind of a "wink wink" policy.

I do not think any high person in any US presidential administration has ever said that they support Taiwan independence.

@jon-nyc It is indeed a lot of fuel. One has to wonder if we're about to see extended strikes on Syria or Iran.

I cannot Twitter anymore. The replies suck any optimism I have for the world right out of my soul.
