Did Israel expect them to? Just to be clear - you are not talking to a Hamas sympathiser here. They are cunts, but apparently they are useful cunts for Israel, so they helped out with funding. What did Israel think they were going to spend those “suitcases of cash” on?
“Meanwhile, Israel has allowed suitcases holding millions in Qatari cash to enter Gaza through its crossings since 2018, in order to maintain its fragile ceasefire with the Hamas rulers of the Strip.”
Ok, not directly funded but they allowed the money to flow to them.
Israel helped with Hamas funding for a while. They have always been useful to Israel.

Edited for clarity.
It would be nice if the roads that lacked a crossing weren’t so lethal to pedestrians. Maybe remind drivers that other people use the road as well as them?
I don’t want it to collapse. Just stop being an arsehole.

Cager = Car driver. Because driving a car is a like driving your own cage, metaphorically and literally. I don’t think it’s a particularly useful word.
This is the best way to do it because they will go further on the off chance that you are a prime scamming victim rather than someone winding them up. Hooked one for about 25 minutes once because I said the phone wasn’t next to the pc, so I had to keep shuffling between the two. Every time I came back from the pc, I gave the phone a whack on the table to make them jump.
Can you use FF extensions with it? The web site doesn’t say one way or the other.
It’s quite possibly Mystery and Imagination. I need to confer with a friend …
Jesus, that’s some real desperate idiots there.
Decades of pandering to drivers has resulted in feelings of massive entitlement, where any move towards equality of transport is seen as an attack on their fundamental rights. It’s going to be difficult (if not impossible) to shift. Round here the prospect of lowering speed limits causes such angst and wailing and anger that you would think they were being asked to poke their eyes out with a stick, rather than add an extra 30 seconds on to their journey time. When you take a step back and view it with open eyes, it’s utterly ridiculous.
I guess we’ll continue having these sorts of battles over transport infrastructure until the generation with this panicky car-centric entitlement dies out.
I’ve found that a lot of people see the use of public transport as horrors beyond comprehension, and think cycling would kill them instantly.

Who pissed on your chips, Mr. Grumpy?
I’m 100% an idiot.
Sounds like vapid bullshit, can’t be arsed to read. Anyone got a slvbcbatr; on the article?
They could always just not break the law. A radical solution, I know…
“We still suspect that implementing the 20mph on the basis of saving lives is a smokescreen for the real reason behind the legislation…"
Anyone know what they think the “real reason” is?
Israel isn’t as stupid or naive as you seem to think. They have the best intelligence service in the world and usually know what’s going on. What did they think they were going to spend the cash on? Pokémon cards?
