Front Page Magazine: War is Hell
Summary: Debates about the morality of war and civilian casualties continue, particularly in light of Israel's impending incursion into Gaza. The Israeli military, while careful to avoid civilian casualties, still causes them. In a recent incident, a blast struck a church in Gaza, and while the Israeli Defense Forces claim the church was not the intended target, it is not implausible that they may have hit it while targeting a Hamas control center. This incident highlights the difficulty of making hard choices in war, and the responsibility for civilian deaths lies with groups like Hamas who use civilians as shields.
The Blaze: Feds say Hamas, Hezbollah members could be entering US through southern border: Report

National Review: The Corner: Electric Vehicles: Lots of Fire
The UK may need to make parking spaces bigger or park cars further apart due to the risk of electric battery fires. This could lead to higher prices and fewer parking places. The transition to electric vehicles is proving difficult in terms of building a charging network, generating more electricity, and dealing with increased insurance costs and infrastructure repairs. The costs of electric vehicles are not decreasing like other technologies, and there are concerns about the environmental impact and child labor involved in their production. It's uncertain if EVs are truly cleaner in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. Government guidelines suggest wider parking spaces and dunking burning electric cars in water to prevent fires from spreading. Toxic water run-off, explosions, and flammable vapors emitted by batteries are some of the risks associated with electric vehicles. Fires from electric vehicles take longer to extinguish than traditional cars. Critics of EVs are accused of opposing technological progress.
