The US war ship now stationed nearby is what is really deterring those they banked on for back up. You nailed it. Time will still tell. If the war ship would be enough deterrent to the other would be actors. My point as well. dangermouse: |

It's not just the IDF that's shcoked. The whole world is in shock. It's the aftermath, though. As I type this, The 2 million+ Gaza residents don't have electricity anymore. That alone would drive me crazy if I lived there. The barrage of strikes is reducing many parts of the strip to rubble. Hospitals overwhelmed. 250 children dead. What did they do to deserve that? Is one life of a child worth the invasion? To the average fanatic, of course all their lives put together is worth the struggle. motayoayinde: |

I personally can't make the connection of why the Islamic society would think a bloody attack on Israel would scuttle the ongoing bridge-building between the Jewish State and Saudi Arabia. Anyway, who knows what's going on under the table. ivolt: |

Any which way you look at it, Israel now have more than enough excuse to finish Hamas once and for all. I'm not so sure about that. Hezbollah is already firing missiles on IDF positions on the border towns of Lebanon. Before it gets to the point of "finish Hamas once and for all," who knows what other paramilitaries would've joined the conflict openly. Iran is just looking for an excuse to do just that. Khemenei has already made an appearance of solidarity with Hamas. In any case, Hamas will always lose, even if not exterminated altogether. When 2 elephant fight its the grass that suffers it. The women and children will be the collateral damage when e erythinf cools off. Exactly. Hamas should have just stick to kidnapping of soldiers and at most the men and jot the u necessary killings of women and children. Whatever came over them to do this, only time will tell.

The Israeli government said two days ago it will act to free the hostages according to the nation's longstanding principle of leaving no prisoner behind. This is as Qatar have held urgent calls with Hamas officials to try to negotiate freedom for Israeli hostages seized by the terrorist group and held in Gaza. However, a Hamas brigade official has said there's "no chance" of prisoner swap talks as long as Israel is bombarding Gaza. This left me wondering what exactly was Hamas thinking when it launched such a major assault, not just on Israeli soldiers, but ordinary citizens, children, the elderly, and new moms. I have been waiting to see the direction this conflict will go because I refused to accept Hamas just up and invaded Israel as a reaction to "Israel's crimes in Gaza and the desecration of their mosque. I was sure the attack was just a tip of something more sinister cooking under the table, with, perhaps, Iran and Lebanon holding the spoon. So far, not much to support my private thoughts, or perhaps it's too early for me to conclude? Is something much bigger on the way? Anyway, my main point here is based on Hamas' remark that there's no talks of prisoner negotiations while Israel bombs Gaza. It immediately reminded me of the videos depicting Hamas fighters training and practicing "how to kidnap IDF soldiers" prior to launching the attack. So, the kidnap was planned, not a case of taking advantage of a random opportunity. Kidnapping Israelis was part and parcel of Hamas' violent encroachment of Israeli territory. Is it possible, then, Hamas' plan was based on the assumption that Israel won't launch a retaliation when hundreds of its citizens are held hostage in Gaza? Well, it sounds like a smart plan, but apparently a miscalculated smart plan. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Sadly, we don't have such data for the Nigerian auto market. So sorry about that. I'm very much aware of the dearth of survey data in many Nigerian industries, including the automotive niche. I look forward to when we can afford the time and money needed to conduct such research studies, so that people know where to look when they want to know, for example, how many Toyota Corolla was sold last year in Abuja; how many in Jigawa? What is the preferred color? I can easily find and develop an article on such topics for the North American and European audience, but struggle to even determine how many cars are imported in the country each year. In any case, below are the top ten fastest selling used cars (1 to 5 years old) in the USA, which can definitely point us in the right direction because ours is a used car market. Remarkably, the most popular models like the Camry and Corolla are losing their grip of the used car market, which we find very interesting. This post is just a summary. If you want to learn more about our findings, follow the link at the bottom of the post to read the full article, including the recommended model years, how long it takes to sell them, the price, and quick details about each car. Now, here they are: 10. Toyota Sienna Hybrid 9. Toyota C-HR 8. Honda Civic 7. Honda CR-V 6. Honda Insight 5. Hyundai Venue 4. Acura RDX 3. Toyota Highlander Hybrid 2. Acura ILX 1.

What I know is that hamas isn't stupid enough to just randomly launch a confrontation of this scale just because of the aqsa mosque issue. Mark my words, there's more to this attack, and they'll unfold gradually or speedily. Something must have given them the backbone to do this. Israel better be cautious. Perhaps, Iran finally have their nuke and is just looking to use Palestine to do what it has always fantasied of doing. Whatever it is, Israel better be close to their God, or military might may fail them. |

Car Talk / Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by ibinaboonline: 9:23pm On Oct 02, 2023 |
The debate has been ongoing for a long time now and this is my two cents on the matter. A car's speed is not solely determined by whether it has a manual or automatic transmission. Both manual and automatic transmissions can offer similar performance in terms of speed. However, the actual speed and acceleration depend on various factors such as the engine's power, torque, aerodynamics, and weight. True, manual transmissions can provide a more direct connection between the driver and the engine, allowing for precise control and potentially faster acceleration if the driver is skilled at shifting gears efficiently. On the other hand, modern automatic transmissions, especially those with advanced dual-clutch or continuously variable designs, can shift gears quickly and efficiently, potentially rivaling or surpassing the performance of manual transmissions. Experienced drivers, what do you think? 12 Likes
