Hamas explicitly uses those places to launch attacks because they don’t give a fuck about Palestinians civilians and want Israel to bomb them so they look bad. The alternative is to let them launch rockets against Israel with impunity, which has worked so well for the past 20 years, hasn’t it?
They’ll downvote you, spout off some nonsense about Israel committing genocide, because any war is apparently genocide now, and then dance away without providing any concrete solution that doesn’t involve Israel getting wiped off the map.
You know this is a good plan because all the orthodox hardliners on both the Israeli and Palestinian side would hate it.
Speaking as an American Jew, Hamas should release the hostages. Until they do, a ceasefire feels impossible.
Insane that this comment is downvoted. There are 1400 dead Israeli civilians and hundreds more still held hostage by Hamas. If they want peace so bad, maybe release the hostages?
I didn’t get a ban, but definitely had a post “disappeared” with no explanation because I had the audacity to mention the extreme anti-Israel bias around here.
You ever drive down a rural road, and out the window you suddenly come across an old shuttered up house? The kind of house with five cars parked on the front lawn in various states of disrepair? With overgrown bushes pushing into the peeling paint of the wooden siding alongside a giant novelty bigfoot that seems to stare at you as you zip by down the road? The one with the chain link fence that’s torn in five places and yellowed trailer up on blocks? The one with a dog tied to a post, barking it’s head off outside, so you know someone actually lives there?
I imagine these threads are like a window into the lives of the people in those houses. It’s like they’re living in a whole different society, with their weird quirks and vaguely unsettling rituals.
Connect app can do that as well
It was still down for me as of a few hours ago, haven’t checked recently though.
That sack looked very routine too, no huge blindsided hit, just a regular takedown with a slightly weird angle on his legs. Real bad luck.
Got one guy yelling that real poor people can’t afford plane tickets and you’re calling me stupid for the opposite reason. Meanwhile I’m here like, I never even took a position on the actual argument, I just wanted to make a distinction between poverty in wealthy countries vs poor countries. Yeesh
People make bad financial decisions all the time? I dunno why you’re so angry about this. Like, would you say someone with $10,000 of debt, no house, making $13 an hour is not poor? I mean ya they aren’t destitute and homeless but that person sure as fuck wouldn’t call themselves rich, you know?
You need to differentiate between poor in a wealthy country vs. globally poor. I know plenty of “poor” people in the US who can still scrape together enough cash for a plane ticket to go on vacation, but they’re still in tons of debt with zero savings.
I have a 2 year old and live in Nevada. Now I know to avoid taking my kid to swim in warm fresh water ponds, so, kinda helpful?
Gotta use the Dove original beauty bar, at the risk of sounding like a shill it’s seriously the only bar soap that doesn’t leave your skin feeling all weird and sticky
Ya, if I remember right FiveThirtyEight had Trump at around 30% chance in 2016, so slightly unlikely but not exactly a crazy longshot.
If they were carpet bombing Gaza there would be 200,000 dead civilians.
