I don't know that Iridium is still working. I think it's been decommissioned. But, the US military has been looking for its replacement for years. Now, they could launch their own, or buy a network. Musk not getting RUS funds and losing a thousand satellites from orbit a year makes Starlink a prime candidate.

The IDF denies it demanded that Gaza City's Shifa Hospital evacuate within an hour, saying it was responding to requests by the medical center's director who asked for a safe route out for those who wish to leave.

"This morning, the IDF acceded to the request of the director of the Shifa Hospital to enable additional Gazans who were in the hospital, and would like to evacuate, to do so via the secure route," the IDF says in a statement.

"At no point, did the IDF order the evacuation of patients or medical teams and in fact proposed that any request for medical evacuation will be facilitated by the IDF," it says.

"Medical personnel will remain in the hospital to support patients who are unable to evacuate," the IDF adds.

The IDF also says that it provided additional food, water, and humanitarian aid to Shifa overnight.

Does anyone know that a storm flooded parts of Miami yesterday? Should have been in the news, but it had no name. Locals are calling it the "no name spinner"

He hasn't gotten"? He drafted the request:

The legislation is not on the desk, you know that but are being obtuse

He is bound by existing conditions, e.g. the ratification of the Geneva Convention, not to facilitate genocide.

Has the International Criminal Court charged anyone on genocide? The President is bound by the legislation in front of them, not your feelings.

So he should veto legislation he hasn't gotten, write an executive understanding order, which again can not set new conditions, or speak against aid to an ally. Doesn't seem to be cease fire material to me.

That makes no sense. Congress legislates and the executive executes that legislation. The President can't put further requirements on aid.
