— Targeting and killing Palestinians with shelling and gunfire across Gaza
— Delaying the return of displaced people to N Gaza
— Obstructing the entry of shelter essentials (tents), fuel, machinery to recover bodies
— Delaying delivery of critical hospital medicine and supplies

I take that back! I just saw the televised version (after the raw version with the camera guys on center stage and center of attraction...)
I might say this is up there in the top 3 best half time shows!
SUPER BOWL PROTESTER
Another angle of the protester clearly shows a Palestine Sudan flag at the Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl half time show. Some question if the protester was a performer that went rogue.
Daily Mail: "It is understood the protest never made it onto TV screens, and it wasn't immediately clear how he managed to breach the security in place to get on the field."

I personally thought it was one of the better half time shows (and the protester made it even better) but I have a low bar for the Super Bowl.

TRUMP SAYS THINK OF GAZA AS A "BIG REAL ESTATE SITE"
"... And think of it as a big real estate site, and the United States is going to own it and we’ll slowly — very slowly, we’re in no rush — develop it. We’re going to bring stability to the Middle East soon,” Trump to reporters on his way to the Super Bowl

"Very slowly" and "soon" seem like contradictions. But that is neither here nor there. How does Trump plan to defeat Resistance fighters who are not only fully intact but growing after US Israel's apocalyptic bombing campaigns?
