The port of Eilat in Israel has almost 0 ship arriving or leaving because of attacks by Yemeni forces
On top of massive economical losses of the war in Israel, the actions of the Yemeni forces have completely stopped all shipment in an out of the Israeli red sea port of #Eilat.
The Israeli economy is suffering, all transport from #Asia to Israel is now have to go around #Africa to avoid passing through the red sea and risk attack or hijacking.
Other than #Hamas and #PIJ, #Yemen military and #Hezbollah are the only groups who have pushed israel hardly that it's now begging US and UK to escalate their presence in the region and act on behalf of Israeli government.
This can cause an escalation of the war beyond the borders of Israel into a global war.

"Unexploded American bombs littered the Cambodian countryside, maiming and killing people for decades to come.
Many also say that another consequence of Nixon and Kissinger's bombing campaign was that it helped pave the way for one of the worst genocides of the 20th century. Around 1.7 million people died at the hands of the Pol Pot-led Khmer Rouge between 1975 and 1979 - almost a quarter of the population."

Custard apples or Seethaphal are a tropical fruit from South America. They are grown and eaten a lot in Asia too. The fruit is sweet and creamy when ripe. It tastes very nice when eaten raw or can be made in to ice cream too. We are slicing off the outer skin of the custard apple and collecting the kernels inside it.

I'm in the #Humanities Commons instance, and we have free profiles like https://hcommons.org/members/stevemccartyinjapan that include a link to the old blue bird of Twitter, and members are increasingly leaving, so our admins at @hello might want to reconsider having that item in the next version of profiles.
What can I do with all this new free time besides taking contemplative hikes in Kyoto?

Looking at the #trends of #wealth & political/educational/tech/etc #health between the two countries, it's obvious that #USA can't win this, despite the declining demographics in China.
To avoid a war, or going #nuclear, I think US might need to give some concessions to China. I don't like that, but I don't see a good alternative.
