Hello good morning!
After the Hamas massacre in Israel, massacre in Gaza when a hospital was bombed. It's time to ask: what now? It's time to remember: violence calls for more violence. In Spain the investiture runs aground.
Hundreds of people die during a bombing of a Gaza hospital. By whom? The accusations are mutual. Biden, meanwhile, arrives in Israel today in order to contain Netanyahu. It may be late. Iran once again threatens attacks by militias under its control.
On the horizon there are already those who draw a “long war” that could lead Israel to a deep economic crisis. Experts, asked whether Hamas can be destroyed, are, in fact, skeptical even if the Israeli army relies on the key Namer armored vehicle for the invasion.
Geopolitics plays in parallel. China and Russia capitalize on the conflict in Arab and Muslim capitals. At the same time, Spain proposes the summit in Barcelona in November of the Union for the Mediterranean to attempt dialogue in the Middle East.
The investiture runs aground. There are those who recently saw Sánchez's investiture pact to his left and with nationalists and independence supporters as half-finished. But time is pressing and for now the only tangible thing is that it runs aground. Electoral strategies are activated.
An energetic respite. The EU reforms the electricity market to promote long-term contracts and strengthen the guarantee of supply. A crossed veto by France and Germany is also overcome. Together with the advance of the European military arm, Brussels is in luck.
What bars, what shops. Yesterday it was learned that once again the best bar in the world is in Barcelona, according to The World's 50 Best Bars, only this time it is the Sips that reaches the top. A unique achievement, like that of La Confianza, the oldest grocery store in Spain.
Critical gap in health. Today it is time to put on the table how transgender people are excluded from early detection of breast cancer, even though trans men have not had a mastectomy. Administrative gap or lack of awareness?

Kolmanskop, in Namibia, is one of those unrepeatable places that, even when visited in photos, surprises. Former mining town that spoke German and at the beginning of the 20th century the most important diamond exploitations, today restless covered in sand.
Autumn wines. Every moment has its broth... And every season, too. For this reason, in the middle of autumn, the experts at this house highlight seven wines with which to enjoy the aromas of the season at home. The experience promises not to disappoint.
The one about the Osage people is a drama out of a movie, and never better said. David Grann and Martin Scorsese rescue in book and on the big screen a silenced infamy of the history of the United States and its native peoples. It's never too late to do it here either.
