Remember that “Israeli air strike” which supposedly killed 500 in a Gaza hospital? Most of the non-Hamas folks said at the time it was more likely a Palestinian missile which went awry…but that hasn’t stopped the Palestinian-supporting world from repeating it. Well, you know your propaganda is pretty sad when even Human Rights Watch calls you out.<\/p>\n

“The explosion that killed and injured many civilians at Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza on October 17, 2023, resulted from an apparent rocket-propelled munition, such as those commonly used by Palestinian armed groups..,” HRW said.<\/p>\n

It said the findings of its investigation into the explosion were based on a review of photos and videos, satellite imagery and interviews with witnesses and experts.\u00a0 Reuters<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

HRW taking the non-radical side of a question… That’s like BLM taking the Klan’s side in a race riot.<\/p>\n

Then we get to the drone war in Russia – both Ukraine and Russia are claiming heavy drone attacks (and damage, and shot-down drones, and probably even total victory for life for all I know) this weekend. Think Russia may have a claim to fame Ukraine can’t match yet:<\/p>\n

The dispersal unit of a Russian-made Pantsir-S anti-aircraft system broke through the wall of a residential building in the suburbs of Moscow during a drone attack on Moscow on the night of 25-26 November.<\/p>\n

Details<\/strong>: According to sources of the Telegram channel, the Pantsir\u2019s booster unit broke through the wall of the house of local residents; the incident took place at 03:30, in the Sad consumers\u2019 cooperative in the village of Chastsy, Moscow Oblast.\u00a0 Ukrayinska Pravda<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Always thought the idea was to destroy the OTHER guy’s buildings… must be a new tactic. Brings back an old REFORGER memory though – one of our SP4 drivers managed to skid a deuce and a half through the corner of a German’s house back in ’79. Like many folks in smaller towns in small towns feel about the folks from the country’s biggest cities worldwide – the local folks just shrugged and consoled our driver with “ah, f*** him, he’s a Berliner.”<\/p>\n

And looping back to close in the Mideast – the Houthis have been feeling froggy and have hijacked a couple of ships in the name of solidarity with their Palestinian co-rebels against the demon Joos. They got two, but failed on the third and their prize crew was captured.<\/p>\n

The tanker, identified as the Central Park, had been carrying a cargo of phosphoric acid when its crew called for help that \u201cthey were under attack from an unknown entity,\u201d the US Central Command said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said Monday that under international maritime norms and laws, when there is a distress signal, \u201call vessels in the vicinity, are required to come and help and support.\u201d Though Ryder added that there were three Chinese Navy vessels in the vicinity that \u201cdid not respond.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSupposedly, those ships are there as part of a counter-piracy mission,\u201d he said. \u201cBut they did not respond.\u201d<\/p>\n

In retaliation for their pet Somali pirates being captured, the Houthis fired two missiles at the USS Mason (not their first rodeo, they were shot at similarly in 2016.\u00a0 Business Insider<\/a><\/p>\n

As might be expected, the missiles hit water. 10 miles from the ship. Bet that was terrifying….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
