Some things that jumped out to me:

There appeared to be lingering disagreement over whether Israel would have the right to strike Hezbollah if it believed the militants had violated the agreement, something Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted was part of the deal but which Lebanese and Hezbollah officials have rejected.

and

Hezbollah has said it accepts the proposal, but a senior official with the group said Tuesday it had not seen the agreement in its final form.

“After reviewing the agreement signed by the enemy government, we will see if there is a match between what we stated and what was agreed upon by the Lebanese officials,” Mahmoud Qamati, deputy chair of Hezbollah’s political council, told the Al Jazeera news network.

“We want an end to the aggression, of course, but not at the expense of the sovereignty of the state,” he said, referring to Israel’s demand for freedom of action. “Any violation of sovereignty is refused.”

it takes one honeypot and arrest to make this stop, bit messy it got to this point though.

Source that this is it?

The Israeli prime minister’s office condemned the ICC’s decision as “antisemitic”, while Hamas said the warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant set an "important historical precedent".

"prove South Lebanon is part of israel" is literally just the "All I want is peace!" bit

Khojakhmet Kongyrkhodzhaevich Khodzhikov was a Soviet Kazakh artist, caricaturist, and illustrator, and one of the pioneers of Kazakh folk art. He was born in 1910, and his father was an educator and scientist, while his mother was a painter and costumer.

During the 1920s, he studied in the Vkhutemas ("Higher Art and Technical Studios") Russian state art and technical school in Moscow. Its workshops were established by a decree from Lenin. Khojakhmet studied on preparatory courses for the nationals of the Soviet East.

After his studies, he drifted between jobs as an illustrator-caricaturist for newspapers (1928-1930); as a painter for the Central State Museum of Kazakhstan, and the Institute of National Culture; and as the lead art director for Zhambyl Regional Kazakh Drama Theatre named after Abay (although the Drama Theatre wasn't called that during his tenure there in the 30s), which was in Dzhambul/Aulie-Ata (now called Taraz).

He was repressed in 1938 and only returned to Moscow in 1943. From 1944 to 1953 he worked as the decorator in the kinostudio Kazakhfilm.

His easel works are displayed in the State Museum of Arts named after A. Kasteyev in Almaty, and other art museums and funds. Unfortunately, few of his works are archived online. From the description of the cited encyclopaedia, his work features themes of working labourers and peasants. In his idyllic works, such as "Night in the Fisherman's Kolkhoz", "Boats on the Shore", and "Landscape with Mountains", he poetically eulogized the simple life of Kazakh auls.

He also authored more than 100 linoprints with satirical depictions of hot topics of the day. It is unfortunate that his work and cultural fingerprint, which was known to the Soviet people of Kazakhstan and the USSR, was just as ephemeral as the Soviet Union itself, and that no publicly-accessible archive exists of his works and that of hundreds of other excellent Soviet artists and producers.

Some of his works: "In A Yurt"

The aforementioned "Mountain Landscape"

"Zhambyl with the Red Army Soldiers"

"Before the Storm"

Here is one of the better archives of his works

That is how it appears in the State Museum of Arts named after A. Kasteev, in Almaty, Kazakhstan. A little bit about the author...

From 1929 to 1931, Kasteev studied the arts in the Almaty studio of Russian painter Nikolai Gavrilovich Khludov. Khludov was the founder of the first school of artistry in Kazakhstan, which opened in 1921. It was foundational to the development of arts in Kazakhstan and Kyrgizstan.

Kasteev continued his studies from 1934 to 1937 in Moscow, in the art studio named after Nadezhda Krupskaya, the Russian revolutionary and wife of Lenin.

He was proclaimed the People's Artist of the Kazakh SSR in 1944, owing to him being the premier Kazakh artist and watercolorist. The Almaty state museum was renamed in his honour in 1984.

This landscape depicts the Kapchagai hydro power plant (built 1965-1970), which is cradled on the Ili river in Almaty.

Here are some photos of the HPP:

Kasteev was the Chairman of the Union of Artists of Kazakhstan for a period. He was also a deputy of the Supreme Council of the Kazakh SSR of the 4th–6th convocations.


His selfportrait was reproduced on the postage stamps of Kazakhstan in 2004. Many of his paintings also appear on postage stamps.

Artist Kamil Mullashev is closely linked to three nations: China, Russia, and Kazakhstan.
He was born in Urumqi on 27 of October, 1944 and took his first steps within the arts; in Russia he received his higher professional art education, and in 1972 he entered the painting department of the Moscow State Art Institute named after V. I. Surikov; and
Kazakhstan - which is associated with most of the life and work of the artist.

Fame found him quickly. His thesis, the triptych "Earth and Time. Kazakhstan" was acquired by the State Tretyakov Gallery after its exhibition at the All-Union Exhibition. It was reproduced many times.


Bread strada. The right part of the triptych "Earth and Time. Kazakhstan".

The artist succinctly and meaningfully embodied the image of the republic, identifying three main components in it: oil, virgin land, and space.

"So, Kim, here's the story... We are going hunting with Shoigu, and uncle Lukashenko is sitting in the back. I was driving then, like I am now.

I look at the road... and see Biden running-crossing it. I veer to the left, and he goes the left. I go right, and he's to the right! We just barely missed each other! Suddenly I hear a pop from behind. And uncle Luka says to me: Vladimir Vladimirovich, if I hadn't opened the door, Biden would have gotten away!"
