Never thought I'd hear Vera Lynn being played in a café in the middle of nowhere.

But, I back it.

These are the same Lebanese Christians, Israel invaded Lebanon to protect in the 1980s...

The IDF says it is investigating after footage published by Lebanese media showed military excavators damaging solar panels in the Christian village of Debel in southern Lebanon.

"The actions seen in the video do not align with the values of the IDF and the conduct expected of its soldiers," the military says in response to a query by The Times of Israel.

The IDF says the incident is under investigation, and according to the findings, actions will be taken against the troops involved.

According to Lebanese media, damage was also caused to water infrastructure in Debel, along with homes, roads, and olive trees.

@ZiGn0tZaG @BaneFonda @LeafandThistle Weekend ex (Ex. Highland Blitz) - all Reserves and months of weapons/drills practice beforehand.

[Ellis @StrategyBin]

@LeafandThistle @ZiGn0tZaG @BaneFonda Very true.

It's also just not for some people; hence the quick turnaround. Expectations ≠ Reality (or perceived reality).

My BMQ had a 50% drop rate by the end.

@ZiGn0tZaG @LeafandThistle A very ill-informed take on the Reserves.

Perhaps you should head down to your local recruitment centre?

At Milan - Linate airport yesterday; Italy showing Germany how Brits can use the eGates!

Come on, Germany, we can do this!

The U.K. has never stopped German nationals from using the eGates to enter the UK.

Compare Milan (yesterday) with Munich (my photo from October)
