  • Trump says ‘clean out that whole thing’ as part of his plan for Gaza

  • Exactly. I feel sorry for everyone in the US who has to live through another Trump term, but from my outsider perspective the Dems really screwed themselves on this one.

  • I never saw a single person say Trump would be better for Palestine, so I'm not sure what you're on about...

    As for complaining about Dems and not Trump, that makes sense to me because it's assumed that Trump is shit, but Dems pretend to be better than they are.

  • Zionism is a colonizing venture and therefore it stands or falls by the question of armed force. It is important to build, it is important to speak Hebrew, but, unfortunately, it is even more important to be able to shoot.

    We cannot offer any adequate compensation to the Palestinian Arabs in return for Palestine. And therefore, there is no likelihood of any voluntary agreement being reached. So that all those who regard such an agreement as a condition sine qua non for Zionism may as well say "non" and withdraw from Zionism. Zionist colonisation must either stop, or else proceed regardless of the native population. Which means that it can proceed and develop only under the protection of a power that is independent of the native population - behind an iron wall, which the native population cannot breach. That is our Arab policy; not what it should be, but what it actually is, whether we admit it or not.

  • Devastation: aerial views of Gaza after ceasefire – in pictures

    Jump

  • It's how long this has been allowed to go on for that disgusts me. The images from a year ago were awful enough to show how much Gaza had already been devastated.

    South Africa's genocide case against Israel was submitted to the ICJ in December 2023 FFS.

  • It doesn't have to change anything. They can be correct, and I can find the irony funny at the same time. If they hadn't mentioned Russia for absolutely no reason then I wouldn't have felt the need to say anything.

    Also, this alone would significantly improve my job satisfaction:

    Reports from the trial showed that the frequency and duration of meetings was reduced by 60%, which makes sense to anyone who works in an office – many meetings could have been a simple email.

    Something like gardener/groundskeeper looks good to me though.

  • I don't know if this was a test run or an actual operation of some kind, but Russia evidently wants to carry out more of these attacks, as they have been mapping out these cables for years now, and have recently been running national internet outage drills.

  • I'm not very deep in the conflict

    It would seem that you have not even done some preliminary research on the subject.

    Trying to have a discussion with someone who has very little knowledge of this issue is not an easy task, nor is simplifying it.

    It is a long and complex history, and whoever you talk to is going to have different answers about how long it is, what happened, and why it happened.

    While nuance and much important additional information is lost in Wikipedia articles, they are a very useful resource for understanding the main points, and they also tend to be one of the least biased sources. If you are genuinely interested in learning more, this is a good place to start:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict

    If you actually do read through most of that page, I will be very surprised if your take away is still "everyone is the asshole here."

  • 'Very troubling': Leader of 'Abandon Harris' movement now anxious about Trump appointees

    Jump

  • I'm not from the US but I know that I would really struggle morally to cast a vote for either party.

    Yes, voting for Trump because of Palestine is stupid, but I can easily see how voting for the party that keeps sending money and weapons, and supporting them in the UN, while pretending to ask them to "be more careful about killing civilians", would not be very desirable either.

    The US electoral system is absolute dogshit, but in my opinion the Dems lost this election all by themselves.

    Edit: are the downvotes because you disagree, or because you're upset that I'm right?

    Yeah it's all Ireland's fault that relations are strained 🤦‍♂️

  • That's my belief versus the mostly confirmed accounts that are based on limited evidence.

    Describing it as factual was my mistake, but I did so because of how incredibly likely I think it is.

  • Israeli Government Imposes Sanctions on Haaretz, Cuts All Ties and Pulls Advertising

  • There's no way anyone can know that without a full and transparent investigation being done, which Israel did not allow to happen.

    That said, there are many indicators that they did a significant amount of damage.

    One example:

    All the burned bodies and cars from the festival that were somehow burned by Hamas (with molotovs?), and definitely not by Apache helicopters equipped with hellfire missiles. Oh... except for the handful of bodies that turned out to be Hamas fighters. THOSE ones were killed and burned by hellfire missiles, but the Israeli bodies were burned by Hamas. And so were their cars of course. Let's not worry about why the cars were trucked off far away, shredded, and compacted before being buried. Definitely has nothing to do with making it harder to investigate what actually happened to them.

    Much of this info has been available for over a year now.

  • I don't think it's hard to imagine how tanks, artillery, and apache helicopters would do more damage than rifles and a handful of RPGs.

    You just have to look at the incinerated cars and bodies from the festival to see how much damage the helicopters did there.
