He didn't "kick off".
It's not a "jibe".
He said, with dignity and restraint, what we were all thinking - that Al-Obeid didn't just "die" - he, like tens of thousand of other innocent civilians, was killed by Israel as part of its ongoing programme of ethnic cleansing.

Two nights ago, I was in the middle of deepest, market Wales.
At night, all I could see was stars. All I could hear was silence.
I'm home now, and - for some unknown reason - some dickhead is letting off fireworks and there isn't a star to be seen.
Love Bradford. Hate dickheads.

As a Brit, this is all terrifying.
My daughter had a liver transplant 2 years ago after 21 years of treatment, hundreds of blood tests, scans, oxygen tanks, and so much more.
When she had the operation, she was in intensive care for 6 weeks.
It all cost us exactly Β£0.

I've drove through Three Cocks today on the way to Hay-on-Wye.
Car behind was a little too close, but there was a perfect park and selfie spot.
I'm sat at home now 11 hours later and regretting not going back.
So many opportunities to use that pic in the future . . .

I'm staying in a Dark Sky area, and even though the moon is waxing gibbous (getting bigger and 3/4 full), there are so many more visible stars than at home.

Today, I have not even left the Air BnB. But, I have:
- Read books
- Eaten well
- Drank coffee and then beer
- Watched cricket on TV
- Done minimal scrolling
- Relaxed
Tomorrow, I plan to head out and have a look at the lovely Welsh countryside and maybe have a pub lunch.
