Nah, just illustrating the absurdity of talking shite on the internet. It’s absolutely silly and now we’re acknowledging it. ;)

Seeing a lot of explosions in the distance now on the 4 way cameras. Also that brightly lit up complex in the middle of Gaza (I assume their hospital) has gone mostly dark with the exception of a few lights.

Nope. Israel can squish that with air strikes no need for us to do that, we may resupply Israel.

we aren't there for small game we are there in case a more worthy opponent tries to step in.

A proportional response is generally understood to be a proportionate response. It is a subtle difference and not widely used correctly.

While 2 million to 1 is a proportion it does not mean the ratios are proportional, they may or may not be but you did not provide enough information to determine that.

It is a quagmire not worth getting into when most people know what most people mean when they use "proportional response".

Everyone there should be on a terrorist watchlist. I hope DOJ checks them out after they finish going after all the school board moms.

ETA: to be clear i’m talking sbout the people thst sprayed #free palestine, not the people covering it up.

Hellbent on destroying those tunnels.

Does Hamas deserve better as of now?

Given the shite they did and showed to the families of the victims, death by suffocation is actually pretty tame.

I agree, but do you mean because of the quotes on massacred? That’s an.. odd choice by them



Perhaps, or they are simply quoting a descriptor used by an eyewitness to the act? I have no idea, but there could be a legitimate reason for the choice here that isn't nefarious at all.

I find it best not to discuss such things.

Probably because of the back and forth associated with it rather than the video itself.

I just don't get the context of saying he hates the media for publishing stories that should be published. That's all I could come up with

Most of it is behind a paywall, but Sy Hersh has an article up today titled Netanyahu is finished. He says Bibi was told by military commanders not to allow settlers to celebrate Sukkot in the West Bank. That celebration was given the protection of two of three Army battalions that had been protecting the Gaza border. That left 800 soldiers for Gaza.

Bibi prefers special forces -- the ground forces aren't trained for combat and typically are used as security guards in the West Bank. Brutal "Leningrad approach" is on the table. Debate is whether to starve Hamas out or kill as many as 100k people.
Netanyahu is finished.

Believe it or not aljaerra (sp) is a solid news organization that tries almost too hard to be be fair and balanced, they ask the hard questions right out of the box. They are Hamas buddies

Sy Hersh


Not sure how many times this guy has to be proven a fraud before people stop taking him seriously. He was good in the 70s with his Vietnam stuff but has been thoroughly debunked time and time again since he tried to shift blame from Assad for gassing his own people a decade ago.

That's not brutal.

Brutal is attacking an innocent music festival, burning innocent civilians alive, killing babies, and chopping heads off.

Im tired of people equating being a victim with being virtuous.


Also called "the noble victim". The mindset bestows a form of nobility to a person or group the viewer believes has been the victim of some injustice.

When someone uses this word my antennas go up. When was he "debunked" on the US carrying out the bombing of Nord Stream so they could blame it on Russia?
