It’s like those 35,000+ so far don’t count. Let’s start with dozens.
The new strategy of Israel is to attack refugee camps so often that we dont know if its new attacks or late news…
The only way to distinguish them is by the number of dead civilians
Biden will do nothing
You seem to be ill informed, he’s going to wag his finger so hard it’ll give off a light breeze.
Can’t furrow his brow any more because of the botox.
Not if Blinken continues to provide inconclusive reports. POTUS makes international diplomacy decisions based on intelligence provided by the State Department. It’s not based the President’s opinion, US citizens, news, the UN, the ICC, or the ICJ, but state intelligence. Biden needs to put pressure on Blinken to provide a thorough and conclusive report, or replace him with someone who will.
State Dept intelligence might influence POTUS’ decisions, but it isn’t the only factor.
It isn’t. It’s just the most heavily weighed piece of intelligence in the Executive Branch. The Legislative Branch is the other factor, and Congress voted in favor of legislation for munitions supply.
And Biden also went around congress to fast track weapons multiple times.
That’s true. He did that prior to pausing shipments pending the State Department investigation. Chronology is important.
So are the facts. And the fact is Biden has received more Israeli pac money than any other politician in United States history over the course of his career.
I absolutely agree that should be considered if he were supporting Israel against congressional legislation or the advisement of the State Department.
I’m fairly certain the fact that Biden has received more Israeli political donations than any other United States politician in history has more influence of potus than the state department
That would matter if he deviated from Congress or the State Department.
Dude, the state department looks like a bunch of chuckle fucks trying to say that there is no ground offensive in Rafah while Israel is broadcasting their tanks in the middle of the city.
Biden’s policy on Israel is as morally reprehensible as it gets. There is no lower. There is no worse position.
I agree. They also just had members step down and say their reported information was suppressed or altered. He needs to press Blinken for a conclusive report or replace him.
To amend existing contracts against the advisement of the State Department, against congressional legislation, is unfounded. He could even be impeached for bad faith.
Really starting to think that if USS Liberty happened again, Biden still would not change anything despite not being able to cover it up like LBJ due to the modern age of media and internet.
Hamas shouldn’t store weapons near civilian areas. They should also release the hostages and surrender.
Okay Genocide justifier.
You do realize this logic is the same as if someone from a different household punches you, it gives you the moral right to shoot someone else from that same household in the head, right?
Finally, this blind allegiance to a morally wrong actor is going to make the rest of the world treat Israelis as the world treated Apartheid South Africans. I hope you enjoy being ostracized.
false equivalence
[ fawls i-kwiv-uh-luhns ] Phonetic (Standard) IPA noun
a logical fallacy in which one assumes or asserts that two things are the same or equal when, while alike in some ways, they are not sufficiently similar to be considered equivalent.Claiming something is a false equivalence doesn’t make it so. You want to make a claim like that, you have to justify it.
But I know you won’t, because you’re happy with the charred corpses of babies.
I don’t think you’re being downvoted because anyone disagrees with you. Of course the terrorist organization should stop terrorizing people. But your comment really comes across as apologizing for the civilian deaths.
“You’re not wrong, you’re just an asshole.”
You’re naive if you think no one disagrees. There’s people on here consistently cheerleading for Hamas and at every protest you see people cosplaying as Hamas. There is a lot of support for genocide, so long as it’s Jews that are the ones being murdered.
And yeah, Hamas is using civilians as human shields. If you actually cared about Palestinian civilians you wouldn’t be calling people assholes for denouncing the actions of the real genocidal terrorists that are only getting Palestinian civilians killed with their cowardly tactics. But you don’t really care about Palestinian civilians, you only care about hating Israel.
Can you share some links to these posts that support Hamas? Are they generally up-voted, or down-voted? There are trolls on every platform.
But you don’t really care about Palestinian civilians, you only care about hating Israel.
Making these kinds of strawman, ad-hominem attacks against me makes me very hesitant to engage in any kind of serious conversation with you, but maybe that’s your intent? I am certain I haven’t said anything that would make anyone think I hate Isreal.
Can you share some links to these posts that support Hamas?
That would be a waste of my time. You don’t strike me as someone that would be convinced by facts.
I am certain I haven’t said anything that would make anyone think I hate Isreal.
You call people assholes when they state facts about the fucked up shit Hamas does.
This is cult behaviour… always attack never even try to defend the horrible things your side does because it’s indefensible.
But maybe I’m wrong. Are you capable of unconditionally denouncing Hamas?
This is cult behaviour… always attack never even try to defend the horrible things your side does because it’s indefensible.
It is quite ironic of you to say this in a comment chain in which you came in, immediately attacking and attributing malicious intent to the other commenter, all the while insinuating that Israel does nothing wrong and only Hamas is to blame for the horrors happening. Of the two of it seemed to me like you were the one engaging more in this behavior.
But in the end it was indeed malicious intent. The guy supports Hamas.
I probably spent too much time during the pandemic talking with anti-vaxxers (nothing else to do), so I guess now I can pick up on this pattern of behaviour from the “I did my own research on the internet” crowd. Someone states indisputable facts, then the people that are pushing false narratives will make insinuations about how it’s somehow wrong to do this. Not overt challenging the facts (because it’s indisputable) But just how it’s inappropriate somehow. Appeal to civility politics sort of thing.
In the end, it’s not the tone or the presentation of the facts that bother this kind of person. It’s someone presenting any kind of fact at all that’s bothersome to the narrative brained crowd. This guy wants to support Hamas and the evil acts of Hamas are an inconvenience to the narrative he wants to believe in.
Same goes for those that wanted to believe the pandemic wasn’t real, same goes for those that want to believe Trump is a great and moral leader. It’s an inability to separate the facts of the real world with the narrative they want to believe about the world.
Your entire post is a series of strawman arguments. You clearly aren’t interested in conversing in good faith, so I’m out.
“Don’t wrestle with pigs. You both get filthy and the pig likes it.”
“You’re just an asshole.”
I know I already said I’m out, but that’s the most truthful thing you’ve said in this entire conversation. Thanks for finally being somewhat honest.
I’m not apologizing for anything. The ‘enlightened’ leftists and college ‘protestors’ need to realize a cold hard fact. When you hide your forces among civilians and use them as human shields to protect military installations (ammo dump, command center, launchers, etc), in effect deliberately maximizing your own civilian casualties to dissuade attacks, you are not only committing a war crime, but you are forfeiting the protections of those civilians under international law, and those installations remain a valid military target in the eyes of the law.
So by Hamas operating out of schools, mosques, refugee camps, hospitals, and other civilian areas, they are the ones responsible for those civilian deaths, because they are putting civilians in harms way.
