And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

The death spiral regarding the SA Air Force & SA Navy's capabilities is even more severe than the video's numbers made clear: A healthy number of annual flying hours for the SAAF's size is around 50 000, and as recently as 2010-2013 it was flying about 40 000 a year. That's dropped to +- 6500 since.

The waiver on life-saving humanitarian services appears to have had little effect. Funding remains frozen for many projects that provided services explicitly covered by the waiver, such as antiretroviral (ARV) medicines for people with HIV.

Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason."

I kind of wish judges at the ICJ got to ask questions of the lawyers during argument, because I swear I heard Israel's reps claiming they were doing a great job with aid and definitely not purposely creating a humanitarian crisis.
“One of the things we witnessed…was a large warehouse filled with humanitarian goods that had been rejected at Israeli inspection points. Goods like medical kits used to deliver babies, water-testing kits, water filters, solar-powered desalinization units, tents…”
