@BethBaisch I think the gesture on the left means that 4 hostages were rescued, and the gesture on the right is him taking his hat off to show respect to the rescuers. Stressing, only a guess.

It would be a great idea for #Vancouver area grocery stores to devote the first hour of opening, on at least 2 days/wk, for elderly & immune system compromised shoppers. Idea is that the stores would be freshly cleaned and fully stocked at those times. #COVID19Vancouver

@theJagmeetSingh When I went to see the protest myself, on 176 St, every ethnicity, age group and demographic was present, but If I was going to categorize the majority, I'd say that they were working people who make less than 50k, and have jobs that cannot be done by Zoom.

@Efune As I recall in past wars, hamas strictly controlled what foreign media could see, and provided them with a narrative. Media who reported anything less than flattering were ushered out of the strip and their networks would lose the ability to report sensationalistic clips.
