The US secretly approved a financial and maritime arrangement between Qatar and Iran, under which billions of dollars were paid to Tehran in exchange for free passage for Qatari tankers and ships through the Strait of Hormuz, three diplomatic officials now confirm.

Then Israel had the audacity to keep using “Self-Defense” excuse every decade.
Israel didn’t stumble into endless war. Israel built it. Brick by brick.
Own it.
FWIW: In game 3 of the ‘06 ECF, Cam Ward was pulled for Gerber after giving up 4 straight on the road. Canes fought back to lose by one goal.
In game 4, Gerber got the start and pitched a 4-0 shutout.
Under military custom only commissioned officers in uniform (and the POTUS as Commander-in-Chief) render a hand salute in response to a salute. Civilian officials, including Cabinet secretaries like the DHS Secretary, do not.
