Gaza: Truths Behind All the Lies "Occupied Gaza." Prior to October 7, there were roughly two million Arab citizens of Israel but no Jewish citizens in Gaza. Gazans in 2006 voted in Hamas to rule them. It summarily executed its Palestinian Authority rivals. Hamas cancelled all future scheduled elections. It established a dictatorship and diverted billions of dollars in international aid to build a vast underground labyrinth of military installations. So Gaza has been occupied by Hamas, not Israel, for two decades. "Collateral Damage." Hamas began the war by deliberately targeting civilians. It massacred them on October 7 when it invaded Israel during a time of peace and holidays. It sent more than 7,000 rockets into Israeli cities for the sole purpose of killing noncombatants. It has no vocabulary for the collateral damage of Israeli civilians, since it believes any Jewish death under any circumstances is cause for celebration.

And they're not "sausage" dogs; they're wiener dogs. Wiener. Wiener. Wiener.

NB needs glases.

If Trump is elected and any of the hostages are still alive, how much do we wanna bet that they'll be released the day before he takes the Oath?

In the real world, public criticism of one's boss usually leads to a prompt cashiering.

Superb. Let us know what happens!

Scintillating Thursday repartee, yawn man. ----- Thrilling Thursday report, see man: Our body still hurt, and the pain awoke us early, ow man. Before we could assume comfortable position on heating-pad, miu sat on us to encourage us to produce miu-breakfast, man. Miu was active and needy all morning, active needy miu man. Mama T-B. has wanted us to take her out to stores for some time, casa-bound senior she man. We offered to take her to Walmart after lunch, offer we man. But then, she called back to tell us to take her before lunch, conserve energy senior she man. We had no time to eat and barely time to shower, hastily self-prep we man. From pickup to return, this was almost a Many-hour process, starving we man. Mama T-B. thoroughly searched most of the store and got $Many in items, shop senior she man. We got 2 items, minimally shop we man. One of these items was some croissants from bakery markdown, financially savvy we man. Several of these became "lunch" before our hasty siesta, ingest we man. We got an hourlong siesta and left to retrieve Mini-B. from skool, Two Guys eve man. Din-din was takeout from Popeye's*, ingest Two Guys man. *bought WUOC, financially savvy we man We then watched some YouTube, and Mini-B. played V.R., occupy selves Two Guys man. Mini-B. has grades over Many points -- si man, Many points -- in Many (2+2+1) of his skool courses, finally and proud we man of wee man man. We have itineraried Many (2+2+1) ESs, a GS, and an MS for Friday, long route man. Party with the rubias imminent, cavort we man.

You have not only fixed your issue -- you've helped others, too! People like you, and the USCIS technical staff. You've also proved that "we rarely get what we don't ask for."

How wonderful! It's always darkest before the dawn, and it looks like dawn is almost... Risen.

The above was split into its own topic from an unrelated thread.

Addendum to previous: The advice from Family and pushbrk is fine, too. Proceed as you think best.

This one line merits enshrinement in the pantheon of All-Time Greatest VJ Posts. When you say that you won't be allowed inside, I hope that it means the interview, rather than the building itself. The following advice applies if you're let inside the building: You, or your wife, should tell the FSN (Foreign Service national, now called LES -- Locally Engaged Staff) who collects the documents that you request that the Chief of the Immigrant Visa Unit be present or on hand and that you be called in to the interview if there's a shred of doubt about the bona fide nature of your marriage. If you get static, play the USC card: "Are you a USC? No? Well, I am, and because this is our third interview, I insist that the IVU Chief hear me out if there's any problem." This next applies if you're made to stand outside the building: Give your U.S. passport to your wife with a note taped to it: "Vice-Consul: I'm close by outside the building. Because it may be helpful toward granting the visa, I encourage you to call me inside for a thorough USC-to-USC face-to-face interview. In addition, please let me know the name of the IVU Chief. Thank you. [signature]." From now until the interview, repeat to yourself: "I will not be hosed. I will not be hosed." Say it to yourself in front of the mirror, several times daily, with increasing self-belief. I also recommend violent physical exercise for blowing off tension.

It means physical occupation of your new residence. USCIS needs to keep track of the immigrant's location. Congratulations on buying your property!
