🇹🇼 A cat named Lele (樂樂) stayed with her owner after a fall into a ravine in Taiwan in August 2020.

Kappa was traveling around the island by motorcycle with Lele when she slipped on a rainy mountain road and lost consciousness for about a minute.

She awoke to find the cat on her chest, meowing and gently biting her chin.

Lele then walked ahead, continuing to meow as Kappa followed her back to the motorcycle.

Kappa said the cat had also woken her during a fire several years earlier.

According to a study, the end of the world was supposed to come on 13 November. It sounds dramatic and would be quite urgent – if the study were not already "outdated". Still, it is fascinating.

Half of Egypt. All of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Kuwait. Three quarters of Saudi Arabia.

American pastor and televangelist John Hagee says God promised these lands to the Jewish people—and that Jesus’s future reign will make this expanded Israel, this Greater Israel, a reality.

But what happens when Christian Zionism’s end-times vision meets PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s Israel? And what happens to the people who call those countries home?

For decades, overseas bases have allowed the US to wage faraway wars and protect allies. But Iran’s ability to damage US facilities during the war has changed that calculation — for friends hosting the bases, and for Washington, say analysts.

Gospel of the Day (Luke 17,20-25)

Asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God would come, Jesus said in reply, “The coming of the Kingdom of God cannot be observed,
and no one will announce, 'Look, here it is,' or, 'There it is.' For behold, the kingdom of God is among you."
Then he said to his disciples, "The days will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.
There will be those who will say to you, 'Look, there he is,' (or) 'Look, here he is.' Do not go off, do not run in pursuit.
For just as lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be (in his day).
But first he must suffer greatly and be rejected by this generation."

Israeli actress says she's leaving Israel for good, citing Gaza genocide
——
Israeli actress and director Einat Weizman, a member of the Balad party, announced she will relocate to Athens, Greece, with her partner and two daughters, citing years of professional and personal difficulties over her political views and criticism of Israel.

Balad is a Palestinian-led political party that advocates for Palestinian national rights, equality, and a single secular, democratic state for all its citizens.

Speaking to Haaretz, Weizman said her 'outspoken' positions had exposed her to harassment, cost her professional opportunities and made it increasingly difficult to earn a living. She cited being fired and suspended from teaching institutions, as well as the termination of her representation by the Zohar Yakobson agency following a social media post celebrating Palestinian journalists in Gaza after the 'ceasefire' announcement.

"I can't sit in a cafe and drink wine without being constantly aware that people are being expelled from their homes and going hungry in Gaza," she added.

Weizman also said she could no longer tolerate living in Israel amid the war on Gaza, saying "for the past three years, it has been hard to live here because of the genocide. I simply know too much to be able to lead a normal life in the Tel Aviv bubble."

She concluded by reiterating her rejection of living in Israel, saying: "I can't mentally bear to stay in this place, can't pay taxes here and can't be part of the murderous madness happening here."
