It’s quite easy to call for peace but the aims and even needs of both sides are so incompatible that I struggle to see a realistic route there at the moment. In particular Hamas had been moving in...

Bellingcat did an interesting analysis of the crater after the hospital bombing. It doen't reach a conclusion yet on who was responsible, but regardless it seems like it was unlikely to have been...
Agreed with the first section, but “the ability to display all class”, isn’t standard phrasing, so prefer Flinn’s version for that part.
As someone who was on the panel that wrote the first document that was called a Constitution, the division into three branches was never an essential feature. In fact the concept of a 'judiciary' did...
Scientific knowledge does not form some kind of indivisible set of beliefs, of the kind that at least the more robust forms of Christianity/Islam etc. have. If I was presented with compelling...
Hamas is known to store rocket caches near hospitals, so there is also the possibility that a larger conflagration resulted from a hit on one of these, whichever side is responsible.
The IDF is...
This is not really true. Sharon's visit was unhelpful, and served as a useful spark for Palestinian resistance, but it is pretty overwhelmingly clear that the Second Intifada would have started...
I had completely the opposite experience. I thought it was excellent, enjoyed a lot of the new mechanics, the overall feel and recreation of the period, and general gameplay. But, development and DLC...
I was raised in the UK in an extremely religious family (and extended family), but have been an atheist since my early 20s. So I fall into your statistic. Religiosity varies a lot of course though, I...

Although these are not all feel-good movies per se, they are sufficiently removed from mundane reality that...
Perhaps usage varies from culture to culture, but to me in the UK byelaws are an assortment of local measures that can be superseded by higher laws or constitutions, and generally don't form a...
This looks like a more logical structure, support.
Support this.
I agree with all of these, but presumably the first four could be done by the Consul without Curial decision?
If not perhaps an Enabling Act to empower the Consul is in order!
Great article. I've been meaning to get this one.
Enclave?
Ah, I have it with the connection to the lesser triumvirs. It must be Ahmed Cemal Pasha, one of the Three Pashas who ruled the Ottoman Empire during WWI. Great riddle!
I'd guess it's a Georgian, or someone who's associated with that place at least, but we might need an extra hint here I'm afraid... Great riddle though!
It is indeed, well done!

Cat among the pigeons?
Perhaps the Consul at least should have access to view the votes in the Curia, and be responsible for double checking that no vote was entered incorrectly.
I would support making votes public, especially in amendments/decisions, and probably in elections too. Voting is supposed to be a privilege and responsibility that comes with citizenship, I feel...
I wouldn't redo it if there's no material impact on the result. There's always minor amounts of voter fraud in real life elections, but the result stands if it didn't affect the outcome. I imagine...
Oh it's 'Go for the eyes Boo', Minsc from Baldur's Gate 2.
I would credit Kilo with this turn instead though, he had all the pieces and I wasn't close to getting it before.
Very well done! The ‘Napoleon of the East’.
The reference to paradise is from a (perhaps apocryphal) conversation:
"Are there such things as war and victory over the enemy in paradise?" When...
Sure. This character lived east of Jaffa but west of Lhasa.
Got it, well done.
It hits some of the right concepts, but is still a bit off. It’s a quote by and British figure, referencing a British institution. It’s pretty well-known in the UK, but probably hasn’t travelled over...
Well done!

The first picture is a man in traditional English dress (as a Morris dancer).
Despite what one of the images may imply, it is not an overly sexual remark, although admittedly not entirely PG-13...
Sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news that it isn't, no. :tongue:
It's a (disparaging, but tongue-in-cheek) remark by a very famous historical figure.
This character lived in the last 500 years, so legions are more figurative there.
Very impressive to find that.
It could also be a Jamaican flag perhaps.
Rise of Nations?
This is the closing line from Ozymandias, but I guess I was a bit abstruse here!
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
Very well got. It is the University of Coimbra indeed, a beautiful city.
