War driving

Looks like it predates both Dada and Surrealism. I would love to get a source and date for this but tineye cannot find a match.

Did the top of the head fall off?

Ireland is trying to redefine “genocide” to include Gaza & Ukraine situations.

Technically true. I am therefore a Zionist. That doesn’t mean I want to see Israel expand into Jordan or even expand settlements in the WB.

There should be a covers band in Thailand called Durian Durian.

Considering ⅔ of Jews died in the Holocaust and 2% died in Gaza, let’s encourage Hamas to not surrender yet, there’s still a long way to go.

Makes for a confusing cartoon. I browsed too many of the comments thinking everyone knew what 3251 means except me. I thought a route 3252 road sign fell on him.

MAGA are not socialists but many of them wanted to see the system crash and burn.

Weren’t Reddit comparing a couple of years ago that too many AI bots crawls were stressing their servers.

Doesn’t the internet archive relieve that stress?

Most Israeli Jews are from the Middle East. The rest are mainly direct descendants from the Europe Holocaust (⅔ of them were rounded up because of their ethnicity and, without provocation, executed — actual genocide by UN definition).

Meanwhile in Australia this week we have Jews being doxxed by Daily Mail.

Where would they go to?

In finding this Rhodes piano video for you I finally realise that the very low bass notes have a grungey tone (clipping distortion). I even played one of these weekly at my music teacher’s place but did not notice.

Log drums are tiring after an hour. I hope one day they depart from that ingredient.

There is rarely piano but when there is then it is electric piano which has a very different sound you may not recognize(?)

The other elements are shakers and…

a single note or chord stab on the off-beat (or every second off-beat, sometimes every second on-beat for variety).

Amazingly this song reached #1 in South Africa? Syncopated rhythm and no vocals — I don’t know of such a #1 track anywhere in the world. SA has rhythm.

This guy (with a Greek Father) was huge but died young. Here is another track of his.

Here is s long mix by a woman from that #1 track. More that she was popular enough to play in Australia (long way from SA and not many give available here).

Occupied is not the same as border control. The control was necessary because the Al Qassam Brigades and Palestinian Intifada Jihad kept attacking Israel with missiles and suicide bombers.

Reporting Hamas propaganda as facts. If stating the source it is always “Gaza Health Ministry” never Hamas even though they are Hamas run.

This emboldens Hamas and prolongs the agony.

Hang on, doing your mom.

Gaza was not occupied. Israel withdrew settlements in 2005.

I personally wish that Netanyahu and whoever was in charge of the Defense were punished instead of invading Gaza for retaliation. Sucking up the 1200 slaughtered by the Al Qassam Brigade would have been cheaper with less death for everyone concerned.

From Israel’s own self-interest perspective: they have lost 454 soldiers. They have had 148 hostages returned but could have had them all returned (and lost no soldiers) at the start of the war with a swap.

Israel underestimated the extent of the tunnels and the unquestioning support Hamas would get from the Global Left (eg believing the Al Ahli Hospital hoax).

But Hamas (who were as keen for war as Likud) also underestimated: they mistakenly thought the Arab League would join the war like in 1967.

And so the mission creep has gotten us to this situation today. The only realistic way out I see is if Hamas would surrender and the Arab League would occupy and reconstruct. I certainly would not trust Likud and the even more right wing parties in their coalition (who support expansionist terror by settlers in the West Bank).

You haven’t answered the question.
