GOOD NEWS: Arab media reports that Hamas is losing control of Gaza.
Gazans have reportedly taken over warehouses where Hamas was stockpiling stolen aid.
Without that aid, Hamas lacks the funds to recruit new terrorists and can no longer control the population through food.

The deeper meaning behind "almost no healthy children die of the measles" is that, when children do die of the measles, it's only ever because they were already ill. And the deeper meaning behind that is "well, we can't save 'em all." And that's just...17th century thinking.
