AFAICT Its a greyish area of Intl law.
Embassies hav diplomatic immunity, not immunity to base miltary ops and meetings, or as a base for spies.
However, the world has sort of turned a blindish eye to this kind of stuff in the past, mayvbe expelling the offending consular staff...
IL basicaly decided that if theres a meeting of terrorists in an embassy, the embassy no longer has diplomatic immunity... so they can target it  - AFAICT technnicaly correct but the world hasnt practiced the law that way
Do you have a link?

As explained in the other thread, diplomatic immunity has no place in a discussion about Israel targeting an Iranian consulate in Syria (even if it is the consulate proper and not a separate building as the Israel EC™ contends).

Lets keep the discussions separate. This is to find out if the annex building is considered part of the consulate/embassy. The other thread is covering the other issue.

Jewish classic joke is that the men take care of the big problems and the women of the minor ones.

CV: “turned over” is slang for when you finish cleaning your kitchen (or to some, your house) so that the Pesach cooking can commence. It’s very labor intensive (involves flash heating sinks, covering counters, burning out ovens, etc.) and to some it’s the hardest part of Pesach preparation.

I have TSA precheck, but on a recent trip from LHR to JFK I had SSSS on my boarding pass. Is that random for that trip or should I be concerned that I will now always that marking?

First time flying since this and no tsa pre on my boarding pass. Everyone else in my party has it

If you live in Lakewood and you likely have the space for it, isn't having a pesach kitchen a top priority so you can save all the hassle?

Still a waste of space for something that's only used for a couple weeks a year.

How much space you think it needs? Designate a wall in the playroom/basement/wherever you can and deduct 2.5 feet and you get a nice size kitchen to the width of your choice or possibility. It's a game changer to say the least.

Besides having a pesach kitchen, we also have a mini chometz kitchen in our basement so that we can just move down there whenever we want and have all the hummuts there
