Israel has leveled a number of Gaza City’s tallest office and residential buildings, alleging they contain Hamas military infrastructure. On Saturday, Israel bombed the 12-story al-Jalaa Building, where the office of The Associated Press was located. The building also housed the TV network Al-Jazeera and other media outlets, along with several floors of apartments.
Workers clear the rubble of a building that was destroyed by an Israeli airstrike on Saturday, that housed The Associated Press, broadcaster Al-Jazeera and other media outlets, in Gaza City, Sunday, May 16, 2021.
Why am I indifferent to things happening 7000 miles away?

Over my lifetime, I’d say Israeli conflict has become less of a third rail. Still, the possibility of Armageddon from Middle Eastern wars is not zero.
The younger gen is questioning everything. They question why we ally with Israel at all. Hamas attacks civilian targets, and then bitches when they receive push-back and hide their forces among hospitals and AP headquarters’. Marking rounds are said to be targeting civilians. My ass they are.
It won’t be long before attacking the AP will be considered critical to the whole defense of Israel.
If there were no Israel, we’d have to invent one in order to piss off the man-on-the-street in the ME.

Truly amazing pic. Makes one imagine a similar strike,say a missile-load of diarrhetic,surgically inserted in various social media sites.
Followed by a purple haze of laughing gas.

Reminds me of the punchline to the joke about 1000 lawyers at the bottom of the sea.
The fact that in a place dominated by Iranian proxy terrorists they need to use Caterpillar equipment to clear the debris pretty much says it all.
They create nothing. They destroy everything. Much like the American Democrats that support them.

No one comments about the antenna array on the roof. That was Hamas communications Central. Looks like no propaganda or burka and goat porn for a while. I wonder if their backup links/antenna/towers were also hit.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Oh yes me likes that link mucho, Ricardo.
