The next flagrant violation of international law. The next war of aggression. The next murder of people Israel and the US claim to be in “negotiations” with. The next proof that Israel has no intention for peace, only for the total annihilation of the Palestinian people.

Where is the flare coming from?

We are proud to present Safadfood AB, a company offering high-quality carbonated beverages, run by a Palestinian family and based in Sweden. Our drinks are more than just a refreshing treat – they represent a symbol of unity and community.

…

Our goal is to support the most vulnerable and help build a brighter future for those hardest hit by conflict.

…

It is as good as it gets in the current situation. Israel would never allow Palestinians in the Westbank, leave alone Gaza become successful with such a brand.

Let me tell you about the tale of Neoliberalism and the center “left”. Our story begins in the 1980s, but it really takes of in the early 2000s. At the time a bloke named Tony was ruling the UK as prime minister and he had a fine Atze ruling Germany, whose name was Gerhard…

Together they dismantled social security, raised taxes on their people, and lowered taxes on their rich friends. They sold much of their realm to their rich friends, at a staggering discount. They said this would be best for the people and the global markets would demand, but also reward as such…

The BBC is omitting a crucial point here. There aren’t only videos of spokespeople saying they were attacked. There is multiple videos from different angles, all showing the matching scene of something burning being dropped onto the ship, where it explodes.

It is literally on video and beyond any reasonable doubt, that the ship was attacked by an incendiary device being dropped onto it.

The videos are consistent with each other. The videos of the attack itself have matching time-stamps.

Either an update of the Tunisian government hasn’t reached the western press yet, or the Tunisian government is doubling down on a lie in order to safe face in the wake of a direct attack on their sovereignty and their failure to identify and prevent the threat.

And the most obvious way to move a ship is by sea. Ships are made to move on water. There is no more logical way to move a ship and its content across the Mediterranean Sea than by sailing it.

Despite existing land-routes shipping remains the backbone of global transportation and you would be shocked to find the amount of ships transporting goods and people across the Mediterranean Sea, or the Baltic Sea, or any other route that has land-routes available. But it goes even further! Rivers and channels remain crucial shipping lanes inside Europe despite streets and train-tracks being right next to them. Almost as if ships are great means of transportation!

EDIT: I am sorry, i got cocky with that comment.

Despite existing land-routes shipping remains the backbone of global transportation and ships usually are preferential to land-routes in particular in the Mediterranean Sea or the Baltic Sea. There also are many shipping routes based on rivers and channels, which have streets and train-tracks right next to it, but maintain shipping as the preferred method of transport for many goods. Shipping is a great mean of transportation and in many cases it is the best option.

Children and parents shouldn’t be “best friends”. When the children are adults, and especially after having moved out of the house, they have their own social life, their own partners, their own friends, they should stand on their own feet economically and with their households.

Of course i can understand the moving back in temporarily and needing some “familiarity” in the form of family after the break-up. However that cannot go on indefinitely as it risks falling back into being too dependent and recreating relationship patterns that befit parents and non-adult children, but not adults.

I might be a bit biased though as i moved out at the youngest age of all my siblings and i had an older sibling stay very long with my parents. Towards the end of that everyone was just getting on each others nerves but seemed unable to break out of that relationship pattern. For my parents it was the last child to move out, so they felt scared of having to deal with the fact that this phase of their live is now over and a new phase begins. In the same wake for that sibling it kept them back from finally standing on their own feet, making their own decisions and finding their own solutions. After moving out at last, everybody involved got much better for themselves.

Spending time with your parents, or adult children can be great and in our time probably happens way to little. But if it is the center of each others life, that is not good for adults imo. And well, as parent or child the rights and duties you have upon each other are different from the rights and duties you have with your best friend. Your best friend most likely didn’t wipe your butt when you were little. Your best friend is most likely not expected to do so, when you grow too old to do it yourself. Your best friend can give you great life advise, but it isn’t their responsibility to steer you towards choosing a solid path in life. And best friends should not come with the baggage of having made mistakes, that parents inadvertently make in doing so.

Finally in regards to old patterns, when i moved out, my parents “got off my back” at last. It took the physical separation to really acknowledge that i am a self responsible person now and vice versa for me not to lean into the inclination to have my parents help me sort my things out, when they are within my ability. So in regards to OPs question i see the risk of them living out a time they had, or wished that they had, when the son was just a boy. But that time is not coming back. Trying to hang onto it, will cause more harm in the long run.

As a bad metaphor: No matter how much you loved that one hoodie you had as a teenager, eventually you grew out of it. There is no fitting you back into it, no matter how hard you try. You would only make yourself suffer as it constricts your body and eventually it would tear. It is better to cherish the memory of that hoodie, but wear things that fit you now.

Since he is your husbands son, i take it that you are not the mother.

Could it be that your husband harbors bad feelings about whatever happened between the mother of his son, his son and him or that he felt, he couldn’t be there as a father back then?
Could it be that they didn’t went through the process of the adult child emancipating itself from the parents, which always is difficult?
You have described their relationship as “more like best friends”. Is your husband having good friends and social contacts aside from you and his son?
Also being best friends doesn’t necessarily work well with living together. I have seen some close friendships die out as living together removed the aspect of choice from them.

I think in addressing the situation it is important to find out what your husband sees in spending so much time with his son, but also how the son feels. From your description it does not sound like their current relation is a “healthy” father-son relationship for two adults. Of course it is good if the relationship between adult parents and children become more like friendships, but they are not the same and they should not fill that role in either sides life.

I think if you can carefully disentangle some of these aspects in talking with your husband, you could help them move on in a way that is sustainable.

Fascism thrives on fear as a means to control. It fosters it. It kindles it. It works hard to keep reasons up for people to feel fear, so that they turn off their thinking and let the fascists control their fear.

While in Western Europe the past 70 years were mostly working on the notion that your wealth and well being would increase, we now are at a point, where the future will have mostly loss of wealth and well being relative to the parents generation. In that climate, Fascists can easily foster, exploit and twist those fears.

“Climate change? It isn’t real and it is just a hoax to take your car away! Global instability and mass expulsion of people? It is just the brown people wanting to steal your social security! Don’t look at the countries and corporations running the globe into the ground and being in bed with the Fascists! Look at the people struggling as a result of it. Hate them, look down on them and fear them. And fear becoming like them, as we dismantle the very same systems that gave you a stable livelihood!”

Fascism is a self fulfilling prophecy of fear, anger and decline for the people falling into it and a brief mania of total control and superiority for the Fascist leaders, until the whole system comes crashing down, as it inevitably does.

So what vehicle would drop an object directly from above from a short distance?

The only explanation is a drone. The next bigger thing would be a helicopter. A plane is not possible as it cannot drop objects vertically due to its forward momentum. And a helicopter attack would certainly be even more severe than a drone attack.

I recommend the Al-Jazeera live updates on the flotilla. There is video evidence from cameras from multiple boats showing the attack from different angles.

The claim of the Tunisian government that there would have been no drone and the fire would have been the result of carelessness are clearly lies aimed at saving face and downplaying the violation of Tunisia’s national sovereignty.

There is more videos from different angles in the Aljazeera live-post.

In one you can clearly see a bright-burning object being dropped onto the boat and then exploding.

That is more than a 10% loss of that customer base in 2 month.

For any industry that is huge.

Polio is on the rise again. New wild variants as well as vaccine derived strands are contributing to it.

When vaccination rate and access to healthcare are good, this does not cause an issue, but if it lowers, or if the health system is deliberately destroyed like in Gaza, it creates the ground for a new outbreak.

I used to run SuSE and i appreciate their 100% open-source philosophy. But when i can’t run videos on websites because the codec isn’t open source, it is not suitable as a daily driver.

I feel like many programmers (or their management) have grown ignorant to resource limitations over the past decade or so.

Obviously there is good examples like many linux distros running well on 4GB RAM and the like, but when it comes to windows, websites and proprietary programs, they gobble up insane amounts of RAM to provide almost the same functionality as in 2010.

If it is very dry, doesn’t that also mean it is less likely to spread/leak into the aquifer?

E.g. dried cow-manure seems to be fine for the environment to handle.

Castlevania would be an Indie game by todays standards in budget, team size and concept.

You are making an argument about 21st century cars based on your favorite 19th century horse carriage.

I wonder if the opposite principle also has a name.

The first comment imo. is fair. It says that the market is saturated, so it is difficult to succeed, but it doesn’t rule it out by default.

The other two comments are just plain hostile and ended up being wrong. Lets call it dead troll bias or something?

Ich habe seit Ewigkeiten kein “knalliges” Grün mehr gesehen. Ich wäre überrascht, wenn das noch Leute fahren, außer vlt. ein paar Stimmer, die die 90er Ästhetik feiern.

In der Stadt wäre Grau wahrscheinlich die bessere Tarnfarbe und mehr als einen Waldweg würde ich den meisten Autos auch nicht zutrauen.
