The Israeli Defense Forces claimed to have carried out a “targeted airstrike” in Beirut Tuesday. According to Lebanese media, the strike killed at least one woman and was conducted by a drone launching three missiles. The airstrike was conducted in response to the death of 12 children from Israel’s Arabic-speaking Druze minority in a July 27 missile attack on the town of Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights. After the attack, Israel blamed Hezbollah. Hezbollah published a rare denial.  “Hezbollah crossed the red line,” Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced today after the retaliatory strike, which purportedly targeted a Hezbollah commander responsible for the Golan Heights attack.  According to reports, Israel notified the United States through security channels ahead of the strike on Beirut. It is unclear whether the strike will lead to further escalation in the conflict. Some in the Israeli cabinet seem inclined towards escalation. “The Hezbollah attack today crossed all red lines, and the response will be accordingly. We are approaching the moment of an all-out war against Hezbollah and Lebanon,” Israel’s Foreign Minister Israel Katz told Axios on July 27.

Let’s debunk a few dozen popular myths about familiar animals, including squeamish elephants, laugh-loving hyenas, and sweaty pigs.

On July 24, 2024, Camus @newstart_2024 writes: Dr. Peter Hotez about using Homeland Security and NATO to fight anti-vaccine aggression, 'anti-science' aggression: "I've said to the Biden administration: The health sector can't solve this on its own, we're going to have to bring in Homeland Security, Commerce Department, Justice Department to help us understand how to do this. I met with doctor Tedros last month in Geneva, WHO the director general to say: I don't know that the World Health Organization can solve this on our own. We need the other United Nations Agencies, NATO. This is a security problem because it's no longer a theoretical construct or some arcane academic exercise. 200,000 Americans died because of anti-vaccine aggression, anti-science aggression. And so this is now a lethal force. And now I feel as a pediatric vaccine scientist, just as it's important for me to make new vaccines to save lives, the other side of saving lives is countering this anti-vaccine aggression."
