Of the 9 victims of Sat’s at Brooklands Plaza , 2 survivors were released from hospital, a 37-yr-old woman & 77-yr-old man, while the 7 others remain in hospital. 2 remain in critical condition, including an 8-yr-old boy who was shot in the head, though he appears to be making amazing progress.

I don't understand the math. Presumably, he started with a full magazine. Used it up, reloaded with a new one. Used that up, reloaded again.

That's three magazines, sure, but the last one is still in the gun unless he ejected it for the sake of ejecting it, which seems strange.

Then again, I'm not a mass murderer, so I might be missing something here.

It would also be nice to now the sizes of the magazines, as they vary widely. But the term "bullet magazine" is not a thing, so...

As Miko Peled observed, Israel and Palestine are the same place. He believes that Jews and Arabs can live together peacefully. That may be true, but by all appearances, it's true of probably less than 20% of the population. The remaining 80% would need to be homed elsewhere.

Palestine is sacred to more than Judaism and Islam. Ideally, I'd like to see it established as World Heritage. Protected by the world at large and thus needing no armed forces. I can dream, can't I?

What of the other 80%? Netanyahu advocates a state in Sinai for Palestinians, so let's make that two states. I think of them as sanatoria. Unarmed and heavily guarded, to protect them from each other and the world from them.

Plus a couple of very large prisons.
