This probably sounds weird, but I don't have a thermostat. We have 2 woodstoves in the house with a large surplus of firewood, and a couple plug in heaters that we don't use, just have it in case we need it. We have an AC in our window in summer which we rarely use, it usually gets cold enough here at night that all we need to do is open our window. Never had a point of installing a HVAC system in our house when we built it, would've been pointless for how expensive it is.
Intifada literally means “uprising” in Arabic and thus can mean just about any sort of uprising, from peaceful to violent. Just like not all revolutions are violent, neither are all uprisings.
“From the river to the sea” is a phrase I personally disagree with, but it predates Hamas (it goes back nearly 60 years) so can hardly be considered an explicitly pro-Hamas statement.
If that’s the best you can do, you are making my point. If there really was widespread pro-Hamas sentiment, it would not be limited to such covert expressions. Overt, explicit expressions of such support would seep out and thus be common.
What about the Infatada banners and the "From the river to the sea..." posters and the Jewish students being attacked and the campus closures? I'd assume most of them are peaceful, but so were most of the January 6 protestors and some on the left are saying it was worse than 9/11/2001
The geomagnetic storm warning on the 11th pertains to universal (i.e. Greenwich) time. May 11th universal time is from 5:00 pm local time Friday the 10th to 5:00 pm local time Saturday the 11th. In other words, the best chance of a light show is Friday night and Saturday morning, not Saturday night.
