Some people, communicating via satellite phones, have described the attack as the “heaviest bombardment yet,” according to independent journalist Sharif Kouddous.

“People can’t call ambulances or civil defense. We are being bombed in an unprecedented manner,” said an unidentified journalist at a Gaza hospital, according to a translation by The Nation’s Palestinian correspondent, Mohammed El-Kurd. “The sky around us just lights up [with explosions], and no one knows what’s going on.”

    Satan isn’t always the bad guy. Satan is also the Lightbringer, the one who exposes the Demiurge and brings reason to humanity. The character is often used as a stand-in for reason and liberation, often drawing on the themes of Sophia but with more schadenfreude involved.
