Why are people upset about that, it’s a good joke

People downvoting this thread because they’re not getting that this is satire by the onion makes this post infinitely funnier. Well played OP

The bombing campaign is not supposed to free hostages but to kill hamas. There’s two primary goals here.

It isn’t if they do the proper strike assessment. If killing civilians was their goal they’re doing a very shitty job at it considering they dropped over 20k bombs on Gaza.

Guy who gasses hundreds of thousands of his own people and bombs them with barrel bombs from helicopters = guy who happens to contribute to the death of 28 k people (at worst) because terrorists choose to hide behind their own women and children. Smartest lemming

Assad killed like two million people in his own country, many of them with fkin nerve gas. Where are the people calling this a genocide? Where’s the condemnation by the Arab league? They don’t give a shit and they wouldn’t say a word if it was Egypt who was taking out hamas in Gaza right now.

Not really but no offense, you seem to be a bit lost in the sauce. If you are this caught up in these kinds of thought patterns you probably radiate some very strange energy to the people around you. I may or may not read too much into that but you seem like the kind of person who would trauma dump a decade of issues onto someone who’s showing even the slightest bit of interest in you. It’s exhausting for people to perform this kind of emotional labor which is why the “liberal” types as you put it may avoid you.

If you can afford it, get professional help if you don’t do therapy yet. But don’t mistake your friends or your date for a therapist.

Is this the lefty version of incels who believe they will never get a girl because they are only 5"9’ and don’t have the correct face structure?

Why would they do that? The UN is like 50 Muslim countries, pretty much all of them theocracratic dictatorships. They usually vote as a block against Israel which is pretty bs considering there is one jewish state with one voice.

He already restricted visas for extremist settlers in the west bank. Making all further aid dependent on curbing the fuckery in this area is probably the way to go. It’s pretty unlikely that the US can do more than delay strikes by Israel when it comes to further actions in Gaza, they don’t have nearly as much control over them as everyone makes it seem.

That something that they’re doing is currently getting a lot of their civilians killed while not really archiveing any tangible military goals. I think I remember the incident you are referencing and even if I trust your statement that it stopped the evictions, “terrorism worked in the past, therefore terrorism is justified” strikes me as a very weak argument. You’d probably complain if I said that Isreal going ballistic against its enemies worked for them in the past, therefore an ethnic cleansing of Gaza is A-OK, right?

We now know a lot more details about how bad the terrorist attacks really are and that they justify dismantling Hamas. Even the surrounding Arab nations hate them and want them gone, so no recognized powers (except Iran, maybe?) are doing anything about Isreals actions. If you referring to the memes about Isreal killing their own civillians that were uncritically amplified by western media then too bad, most of these claims were made up.

Btw I don’t really look too much at any of the involved parties in any conflict when it comes to getting the facts straight, they’re good for corroberation at best.

Resisting is probably fine but doing large scale terrorist attacks against civilians and blindly firing rockets into Isreali territory is unhinged and in no way justified.

Don’t give too much air to that argument, drawing broad comparisons between the legitimate struggle of the sovereign country of Ukraine against Russia and the Israeli response to the all out terrorist attacks of Gaza against them is pretty insulting to Ukraine. I’d imagine zelensky being jewish is also somewhat of a factor in his perspective.

Wasn’t this the same guy who spread some whackjob conspiracy theories about covid and the vaccines?

“Hey there’s a book about Minecraft - wait no it says ‘Mein Kampf’…”

They’re using them to counter small munitions dropped from drones, Russia tried using them to counter javelins. These things might be somewhat effective to counter small stuff in an urban environment while being utterly useless against something a bit more sophisticated.

That’s a very leading question, don’t you think? (heh)

What are you doing step-ATGM?
