Israeli pilots dumped 'unused bombs' over Gaza during Iran strikes: Report
Israeli fighter pilots returning from air defense missions during the 12-day war with Iran were routinely authorized to unload their leftover munitions on the Gaza Strip, according to a 2 July report by Maariv.
The move, initially a pilot-led initiative to “assist” Israeli ground forces in Khan Yunis and northern Gaza, was quickly expanded by Air Force Commander Tomer Bar into a daily operational policy across all squadrons.
The report outlines how, during the operation, pilots assigned to intercept missiles and drones launched from Iran were equipped not only with air-to-air missiles but also with air-to-surface munitions.
After completing their Iran-related missions, pilots contacted Gaza operation control rooms and offered to drop remaining bombs on designated targets in the enclave.
Air Force officials embraced the initiative. Within hours, the ad hoc proposal became standard practice, with squadrons instructed to coordinate with ground units before landing and to strike Gaza “Hamas targets” on their return.
Military officials described the program as a “force multiplier” that allowed the air force to expand bombing raids in Gaza without additional resources.
“Instead of bouncing planes off the ground for an attack policy, planes that were already in the air carried out the missions,” an Israeli Air Force source told Maariv. “It saved a great deal of resources and increased the Air Force’s capabilities.”
The result was what the report describes as “waves of powerful air strikes” on the strip, far removed from the Iranian front. According to the Israeli army, dozens of fighter jets participated daily, each releasing surplus munitions over the besieged enclave before landing.
While presented as a resource-efficient strategy, the practice effectively turned Gaza into a secondary front in a war that had no operational connection to the territory.
The attacks were directed based on instructions from Israeli ground forces already operating in Khan Yunis and northern Gaza, amplifying the daily bombardment of areas already under siege.

News story this AM on the local broadcast, Independence Day cookouts are more expensive this year. How much? “Almost 2% for a group of 10”. But this amount was not stated until the very end. They spent the time saying how much the price burgers/beef or brats have have gone up.
So NOW they want to tell us how inflation is affecting us. But under 4 years of Biden when inflation was running much higher (forgive me, I’m too lazy to go look up the amount) it was never talked about.

This study investigates the association between speakers' personal attributes, such as political stance or military experience, and their variable pronunciations of Iraq/Iran, as elicited through a rapid anonymous survey. For both target items, speakers' choice of variant appears to be associated not with political affiliation but with two other factors: ability to speak a second language and military service. English speakers who report being able to speak a foreign language are more likely to employ a variant more aligned with the source language, [irɑ:k]/[irɑ:n], while those with a record of military service tend toward the Americanized variants, [ajræk]/ [ajræn]. These results suggest that while specific variants might index political attitude in contexts where the construction of a particular political identity is desirable, in the absence of such a context, speakers' choice of variant is governed primarily by experiential factors.

« Mes amis Lorsque l’on est persuadé d’être très compétent, on stagne dans son apprentissage, car on ne voit pas l’intérêt d’approfondir. Demandons-nous alors : « Et si je ne savais pas tout ? Et si je jouais la carte de l’humilité ? » L’humilité fait apprendre. Lorsque l’on se lance dans l’apprentissage, il se peut que l’on se croie doué au départ, jusqu’à ce qu’on découvre qu’il existe une infinité de choses à apprendre ! Nous n’en finissons jamais. Nous tombons dans la vallée de l’humilité : je sais que je ne sais pas tout, que je peux toujours progresser. C’est ainsi que je progresse.
Lorsque l’on est persuadé d’être incompétent, on se bloque aussi, car on considère que c’est peine perdue. Demandons-nous : « Et si j’en savais plus que je ne croyais ? Et si je pouvais progresser ?
»Réfléchissez à ces biais cognitifs, afin de vous entraîner à accueillir de nouvelles pensées, une nouvelle vision du monde et des choses. Chaque fois que vous êtes persuadé d’avoir raison sur un sujet, osez une remise en question. »

An investigation by The Guardian revealed that the Israeli military used a powerful 500-pound bomb, likely an MK-82, in its attack on Al-Baqa café by the #Gaza seaside.
This bomb, caused a massive explosion and scattered shrapnel over a wide area, leaving a large crater at the site. The use of such a weapon may amount to a war crime.

Israel limits entry of baby formula in Gaza as infants die of hunger

While waiting to enter Gaza on a medical aid mission, an American doctor watched Israeli security forces confiscate the cans of powdered baby formula packed in his luggage. The vital product is desperately lacking in the Palestinian enclave, where about 50 children have died of hunger since March.

Un biais cognitif, c’est comme un piège dans notre tête.
C’est quand notre cerveau fait une erreur sans qu’on s’en rende compte. Il croit qu’il pense bien, mais en fait, il se trompe un peu. C’est comme porter des lunettes qui changent un peu la réalité : on voit les choses d’une façon spéciale, mais pas toujours juste
🧃 1. Biais de confirmation
C’est quand tu penses qu’une chose est vraie, et tu cherches seulement ce qui te donne raison.
📌 Exemple :
Tu dis : “Le jus de pomme, c’est le meilleur !”
Alors tu écoutes seulement les copains qui disent “Oui, moi aussi j’adore !”
Mais tu ignores ceux qui préfèrent le jus d’orange.
⸻
🧒 2. Effet de groupe (ou biais de conformité)
C’est quand tu fais comme tout le monde, même si ce n’est pas ce que tu veux vraiment.
📌 Exemple :
Tu veux dessiner un chien, mais tous les autres dessinent des chats.
Alors tu dessines un chat aussi, juste pour être comme eux.
⸻
🍭 3. Biais d’ancrage
C’est quand la première chose qu’on te dit influence ce que tu crois, même si ce n’est pas logique.
📌 Exemple :
On te dit : “Ce bonbon coûte 10 dinars !”
Puis on te dit : “Mais je te le fais à 5 dinars, c’est une super affaire !”
Tu crois que c’est pas cher… alors qu’un bonbon de 5 dinars, c’est déjà beaucoup !
⸻
🧠 En résumé :
Les biais cognitifs, ce sont des façons bizarres ou trompeuses de penser.
Ils arrivent à tout le monde, même aux grands !
Mais quand on les connaît, on peut mieux réfléchir.
but if you keep thinking that, then you gradually let the bureaucracies do everything
which is how we got into this mess in the first place

Frustrated by Day 2’s failures, Lee planned a massive assault on the Union center, led by Longstreet, with Pickett’s fresh division, while Ewell renewed attacks on Culp’s Hill and Stuart’s cavalry probed the Union lines to the rear. Both commanders braced for a decisive confrontation under the sweltering July heat.
At 4:00 AM, Union XII Corps, under Brig. Gen. George S. Greene, launched a counterattack to reclaim Culp’s Hill trenches lost to Johnson’s Confederates on July 2nd.
After hours of mounted and dismounted fighting, and about 500 casualties, Stuart’s advance was halted. Securing Meade’s rear and foiling the Confederate flanking maneuver.
Late on July 3, Union cavalry under Brig. Gen. Elon Farnsworth, part of Kilpatrick’s division, launched a doomed charge against Longstreet’s right flank south of Big Round Top. Ordered to disrupt Confederate lines, Farnsworth’s 300 troopers faced Law’s infantry and artillery across rocky terrain.
The artillery duel, one of the war’s largest, set the stage for Lee’s climactic assault, as both sides braced for the decisive moment, Pickett’s Charge.
At 3:00 PM, 12,500 Confederates—Pickett’s, Pettigrew’s, and Trimble’s divisions—emerged from Seminary Ridge for Pickett’s Charge. Advancing a mile across open fields, they faced a storm of Union artillery from Cemetery Ridge, led by Lt. Alonzo Cushing’s battery.
Lee’s army, with 28,000 losses, would retreat the next day, July 4th. Meade, with 23,000 casualties, did not pursue, sparking debate. Critics, including Lincoln, argued he missed a chance to crush Lee. Defenders cite Meade’s exhausted troops, low supplies, and Lee’s still-formidable army, arguing caution preserved the victory.
Gettysburg shifted the war’s tide, but Meade’s restraint, praised by some and scorned by others, left the Confederacy’s in tact dragging the war on for two more years.
