  • He is denying the existence of journalists in Gaza, because he does not want to acknowledge their, nor the testimony of hundreds of humanitarian aid workers who managed to survive Israels onslaught and also testified. For instance dozens of doctorrs testifying about gunshot wounds on children that look like targeted executions of these children.

    And again he didnt say there is difficulty getting information. He said their would be no journalists. So he is denying the journalists in Gaza, who risk their lifes and get murdered by the UK supported IDF, because then he would have to acknowledge what his government is supporting.










  • I am also struggling to wrap my head around this. Stretching the IDF thin seems to have worked, not to prevent the genocide, but to strain Israel. From the news i saw it also seems that the stock of missile defense on Israeli side was running low as Hezbollah missiles not getting intercepted became more and more common over the past weeks. So militarily Israels seems to have reached exhaustion, possibly to a soon breaking point. Now they get time to regroup and if Netanyahu says he wants to prepare for fighting Iran, that is going to get ugly for Lebanon again. Of course a war between Israel and Iran would be a whole other level of escalation and i cannot see it working out without western allies committing troops to it.

    While the ICC arrest warrants put further stress on Israel legally, there still seems to be no sufficient motion to push for them to end the illegal occupation of Gaza, East Jerusalem and the West Bank. If Israel gets away with the destruction and carnage in Gaza and Lebanon, they will use even more bombs next time in Lebanon.












  • You can test for methanol in various ways during destillation. But also you don’t need to test for it, if you control your temperature properly and discard a sufficient amount at the beginning.

    Even if you would not discard anything, if you fill all your destillate in one container, so ethanol and methanol mix again, it decreases the effectiveness of the methanol.

    Methanol itself is not directly toxic. The damage is done by formaldehyde and formic acid that come from your body metabolising the methanol. Methanol gets metabolized on the same routes as ethanol, which the body favors. So one way to treat methanol poisoning is by ingesting untainted ethanol.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanol_poisoning

    All fermented drinks contain both ethanol and methanol. But because the ratio is not altered with bad distillation, you wont get methanol poisoning from untainted beer or wine.
