Essa Al-Nassr, a member of the Qatari legislative Shura council, spoke on Monday at an Arab League session, received ovation making bigoted accusations against Jews and promising the end of Israel.

I had to stay home today so the AC company could rewire the unit. We are getting a new roof put on the building and removing all the AC units from each rack to put new racks in is a big job. It was really hot for most of the day and they were able to finish the job. It was more rewarding to not be involved in the news or flow of information concerning tensions.

It’s unfortunate our world is in such bad condition, but that is not my fault nor is it my problem. I’m gonna stay in my lane and mind my business.
