The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Nobody in their right mind would expect Israel to assassinate a Lebanese ambassador or to bomb Pakistan.

Everyone thought Qatar would be neutral ground for the Israelis to negotiate with Hamas, too.

On 9 September 2025, during the Gaza war, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) conducted an airstrike in the Leqtaifiya district of Qatar's capital Doha, targeting the leadership of Hamas, housed in a Qatari government residential complex,[6] as it met to discuss an active ceasefire proposal presented by the United States.[7][8] The attack killed and injured Hamas members, Qatari security forces,[6] and multiple civilians.[9][6] The attack was Israel's first known attack in Qatar,[7][8] and its first direct strike on a Gulf Cooperation Council member.
