Hamas uses phones, hence the "Where's Daddy?" attack, which is not directed at tunnels. It's more-or-less designed to hit civilians. The clue is in the name.

That isn't the explanation the article gives. Punch 1 of the 1-2 punch is that heavier rain - also caused by climate change - allows grass to grow higher, and that is why there is more fuel.

I guess it's quite easy to test though: we had extensive wildfires last year; those areas should be safe from wildfires this year.

He isn't scared of being stabbed. He just doesn't want to go to Clacton.

Yes, we would expect Hamas to say something like that. On the other hand, the Israeli military also said this was not acceptable behaviour.

"This is a serious incident that is not in line with [Israeli army] values and what is expected of [Israeli army] soldiers," the Israeli military said in a statement. "The incident is under review."

I mean, it did happen under a Conservative government, and Sunak defended his failure to declare an interest by saying that he wasn't privy to his wife's business interests.

It's quite possible that it's that very scandal that prompted Starmer to seek additional guidance.

If you have listened to Electric Avenue, you will understand why Eddie Grant may have been particularly outraged by Trump using it.

Well, there you are again. You said "my questioning of what you claimed". That isn't self reflection. If you aren't asking in bad faith, you need to spend more time on your wording.

The downvotes are because it seemed that you were asking in bad faith. You said "I believe it is true", but now you say (admit) that you were questioning it.

They say "she was being fed the questions". What would be the point of being fed the questions while you are on stage?!

I know that what they really mean is that she was being fed the answers. It just shows exactly how little effort they put into these claims.

The attraction of Linux is precisely that it isn't one of the two 'standards'. Your working environment doesn't get determined by some product manager in a far-away office, who has a set of target users in mind, which he's given fictional names, biographies and mugshots.

Do you think that these might be some of the subpar dwellings that they're talking about: https://southamericabackpacker.com/exploring-slums-of-medellin-colombia/ ?

No, I'm not serious. Of course they don't need roofs or windows or multiple storeys. I'm just joking about that stuff.

The ones in Texas are built of a "high performance polymer concrete", so probably including cement and contributing to climate change. They appear to be single storey as well.
