If he does survive the trip - or, rather, this adventure - he will have experienced a journey that few of us ever will. He carried a weapon (or at least what he believed to be a weapon, which is all that's really required for an experience) on-board a flight to a city on the other side of the planet where he didn't speak a word of the language or knew a single human being. He rested at hostels, tried to get an in with the locals, met and traveled with the military and was under the impression that he would soon enter a hotly-contested war-zone and assassinate a president; in essence commiting a historic act that would make him famous for as long as we have a space stored away somewhere for Wikipedia servers.

It makes me think of all the animals that we once sent into space, such as Enos the chimp, for much like a chimpanzee on a rocket he has seen and experienced things that most of us never ever will, and exactly like a chimp he doesn't have the human reasoning to ever fully understand or be able to explain what has happened.

Amazing.

Eli confirmed for space chimp.
 
Supposing he's actually trying to buy a gun not just stringing Jace along for money how are these attempts to buy a gun going? Is he just walking up to IDF dudes waving his Islams about and pointing at their guns?

Looking at the gun laws of Israel on Wikipedia there's no way Eli could get his hands legally on even an airsoft Deagle unless he wants to live in Israel as a legal citizen for at least 3 years and apply for a gun license.

That's hardly surprising however it does beg the question of what Eli's going to do when he finally realises that he can't just walk out of a gun store with a firearm.

Secret agent or not I doubt he'll be able to convince someone to sell him a weapon illegally and I don't think Jace'll be willing to wait a week of 'Dude They Won't Let Me Have A Gun,' tweets before holding Eli's cashflow hostage again.

Jace will just tell him to make a tactical scythe or something. I wonder if that Mission Dossier included all his "The Loadout" videos to prepare him.

Edit: Actually, on second thought, CoD never had a crafting system, so that might actually be beyond him.

Gentlemen.... Welcome to Deagle Nation.

You know, it's kind of funny how this works out. One would think with the full-scale defection of Jace's minions, and Jace's earlier attempt to leave him to rot, Eli would wise up, but nein. Never before has one dude done as much to undermine my theory that he has at least a passing acquaintance with causality as Eli has. I don't know if that's a good thing, mind, but at the very least it's given us something to laugh at, and in that regard, I think that's fair enough.
 
He's okay, he isn't going anywhere near Gaza strip...

When he said he was going to get on a plane, people said "Nah, he's just gonna get picked up by Tyce, he'll never get on that plane". When he was on the plane, people said "Well, he certainly isn't going to go to Tel-Aviv". When he was in Tel-Aviv, people said "Eh, he's just gonna hang out with relatives all day". When we saw him roaming the streets, people said "He's just gonna stay around the same few blocks and the hotel and play runescape".

He's not at the Gaza strip yet, but he is making his way there, and so far Eli has been surprsingly ressourceful (for that kaputt stoner kid he is). So time will tell.
 
If Eli does manage to get himself a gun, do you guys think he'll even be able to wield it effectively?
 
Attempted to transcribe this video, just to compare what Eli is saying vs what was written afterwards. After removing the noise I still couldn't make out some of the speech.
Speech said:
Hey guys, this is Eli, like hey what's (up dude?). I'm on my way here to Gaza, it's pretty intense. They (???) ...(there's like) soldiers on the bus(es?) and everything. Like, into Gaza and (???) Whooooa broooo! Anyway (???) that one of them is, like, connected with al-Gamerfood. Anyway, peace out guys, I'll catch you later (after) I've killed al-Gamerfood, tahaaaa!

After Jace Freaked Out At Me I Slept In A Homeless Shelter Last Nite...
I Hitched A Bus Ride With Some Jew Soldierz...
Now Im On A Bus To Yavne Its A Town Just Outside Gaza... Cant Get Any Bus Directly To Gaza But I Can Get Part Way There.
So Ima Proceed On Foot And Shit For A Stealth Insertion. Wish Me Luck. Will Be Posting Daily From Now On.

No amount of resourcefulness can save Eli from several checkpoints and armed guards. He might get relatively close, but he's not getting into Gaza. From what I've researched, you need a reason for going, some paperwork, and you need to jump through some diplomatic hoops. Given his aversion to embassies, count out diplomacy.

I didn't say "in Gaza", but "at Gaza". I'm pretty sure as well that his journey will end at the walls, tops.
Except maybe there are some litaral hoops to jump through, we know he could easily Parkour that shit!

Well, technically he's already near Gaza. Everywhere in Israel is near Gaza. Seriously, the country is tiny. We're talking New Hampshire tiny.

There's no way in hell he's getting into Gaza. And god help him if he does, because the only way I see that happening is if he gets his silly ass kidnapped through a tunnel.

Israel is actually a really big hitchiking country too because of how small it is. But anyways, its possible that
1. Eli finds a tunnel to Gaza
2. Eli befriends some Gazans in Israel who will drive him not to the border in Israel, but to the one in Egypt or a tunnel in Israel

Woke up to this tweet on my phone. I'm going to have to go back through this thread and see what I missed so far.
