@ahmadsfamily :

Peace be upon you Thank you for your interest. My father needs an urgent operation, but the capabilities in Gaza do not allow for this operation because it is delicate and dangerous. We are waiting for him to be transferred outside Gaza through the World Health Organization, as he has a narrowing in the artery that connects to the brain. Until we are able to do that, the doctors are giving him intensive medications so that he does not have a stroke. These medications are expensive and rare due to the siege on Gaza. He needs treatment every week with no less than 700 US dollars. The problem is that the donation money does not reach us in full. There are commissions paid that are not less than 30% of the transferred amount [end image/translation].

people have say this thousands of times but it's still kinda wild how if you show your butt or boobs or genitals in a video to people to get horny and you get money thats Bad and Inmoral but if you do it in a Good Movie with A Good Story that is for the Narrative and it's Fine. Sadly if you point this out people say "you're right good movies with a good story showing naked people are also bad and inmoral"

What If We Called It the ‘Flax Age’ Instead of the ‘Iron Age’?

Correcting the Historical Bias Against Domestic Materials

Archaeology has traditionally had a fundamental bias against fabric. Fabrics are after all highly perishable, withering away within months or years, and only rarely leaving traces behind for those coming millennia later to find. Archaeologists—predominantly male—gave ancient ages names like “Iron” and “Bronze,” rather than “Pottery” or “Flax.” This implies that metal objects were the principal features of these times, when they are simply often the most visible and long-lasting remnants. Technologies using perishable materials, such as wood and textiles, may well have been more pivotal in the daily lives of the people who lived through them, but evidence of their existence has, for the most part, been absorbed back into the earth.

There are exceptions, of course, and traces can and do survive, usually thanks to an unusual climate: freezing, damp anaerobic conditions or extremely dry ones. The climate in Egypt, for example, is ideal for preserving all manner of usually perishable things and we subsequently know far more about ancient Egyptian textiles than those from most other regions. As archaeology has matured and diversified, scholars have increasingly looked for—and found—evidence of fine, complex textiles stretching farther back than anyone would have guessed. Their beauty and the skill needed to make them suggest a very different image of our earliest forebears than the club-wielding, simpleminded thugs of popular imagination.

Israeli banks are planning to end services to Palestinian banks in the West Bank. They are the only means by which Palestinians in the West Bank can receive and transfer money internationally, and they also provide the system through which many Palestinians are paid. This is a disaster in the making.

Israeli banks to cut ties with Palestinian counterparts: Officials

Israeli banks have informed their Palestinian counterparts that they intend to end critical banking services within weeks, Israeli and Pales

[bisexualvalve]

"These banking links are essential for financing imports from Israel to the occupied Palestinian territory, including electricity, water, fuel and food, as well as for transferring wages earned by Palestinians working in Israel."

...

"Five Palestinian banks that rely on Israel’s Bank Hapoalim for correspondent banking services will lose access on August 13, Palestinian banking officials told AFP. Banks working through Discount Bank face a September 1 cutoff."

August 4, 2026 - The Football Association of Ireland (FAI) has revealed Irish fans won’t be permitted to attend the Republic of Ireland’s Nations League games against Israel in September and October.

The Israeli FA has said “a small allocation” of Israeli supporters will be accommodated at their ‘home’ leg game in Debrecen, Hungary on Sunday, September 27th.

A statement from the FAI on Tuesday read: “The Football Association of Ireland confirms that it will not facilitate in-stadium access to Ireland supporters for either of its Uefa Nations League fixtures with Israel."

Ireland’s ‘home’ tie will be played behind closed doors in Bačka Topola, Serbia on Sunday, October 4th, with security concerns cited as the reason for moving the game outside of Ireland. Uefa has yet to confirm whether Irish media will be allowed to cover the fixture in the stadium.

The "Stop The Game" Palestine solidarity group has called for the FAI to boycott the games against Israel. Last month, the FAI said forfeiting the matches against Israel would cost the association around €5.5 million. [article]
