I did not know it was so many, but i know they were specifically targeted.
I guess i should answer your real question, what would it take before the US should go to war with Israel? I am hesitant, they are possibly a nuclear armed power, and a war would cost even more innocent lives. But if i had to choose i would have already effectively done so.
That sounds like an abusive relationship to me, regarding Israel. But if we could not stop Israel from committing genocide no matter what, then i would have us not enable it. If they have the resources available to commit genocide without our help, then they don’t need our help covering their defense, economy, nor political sway either.
Would actively sending our money and troops to Palestine to attack Israel be the correct play? It’s not so cut and dry as the Ukraine/ Russia war. But that money could go tword humanitarian efforts in Palestine, i am not so much concerned about the Palestinian government as i am the Palestinian people.
I don’t see our current trajectory as being successful, so this seems the only winning play. Not changing things risks everything for no good reason
I mean yea, but that’s not really fair to him. Being president seems like a terrible burden.
It seemed a lot worse than being a little hoarse. He was conflating issues, mid sentence. And getting confused regularly in addition to seeming really feeble and not being able to answer what is asked of him. Listen if this was the first i was seeing this from the president, then i might buy this is just him mid fever. But it’s not and is expected from a man at his age. Still voting for him, but i am thinking Kamala Harris is going to have to take over the presidency before long.
Possibly, at that point it would be based on trust that the administration would not continue genocide actions. If Israel changed the ruling party and immediately stopped their genocide then that would be the fastest means to return. I have issues with the land grab into Palestine for the same reason i side with Ukraine. But genocide gives me more than just issues.
I knew this would come up, which is why i specified this. Might as well as cut the head off the “every country has committed genocide at some point” argument. Not every country is actively committing genocide, Israel is. America is their chef supplier of power. America is actively Shielding them from the consequences of committing genocide.
So we should stop backing a country that is actively committing genocide full stop. No money, no weapons, no blocking sanctions, no threatening countries and organizations trying to help the victims. This is the literal bare minimum, as we should be sanctioning them, we should be guaranteeing humanitarian aid to Palestinians.
When is it not an active genocide? When the genocide stops.
Over an active genocide? I would immediately end a friendship with a country and as many times as it takes to not be responsible for enabling a genocide. Allies don’t let allies commit genocide, everyone knows that. Besides it takes more than a president to do a genocide.
What about the person with an auto clicker that just flails his mouse all over leaving chaos and a dead zone in which no one is happy?
He seemed to really like knitting though.
I suppose you have a point, i may be confused with minimum wage, and my personal experience. The price hike on all goods seems to be independent from median wage
It’s more of recognition that the internet is not the Wild West it used to be. Your anonymity is dependent on how much you are worth to track, and that value shrinks every day. If you want to buy cheaper video games, or watch geo locked Netflix content you are fine… for now. But the US government has been offering VPNs for people wanting to be anonymous for a wile now. So its not extreme for china to do it too.
Sounds a lot like sunken cost fallacy. We might be better off making other allies.
Probably, but any thought that VPNs keep you anonymous to anyone other then script kiddies and minor companies is fool hardy
Its better then more inflation, but like i said, we are still in the lurch, i guess if we ignore all previous inflation then the fact we are breaking even is great news, for those that manage 3% growth in their wages per year. Historically wages are stagnant, and inflation must always climb or the pyramid collapses. Granted i am not versed in economic theory, but i base success in what i can afford per hour worked
So just to clarify, we didn’t gain ground. All the shock of the inflation is still with us in ways that actually matters, like things are still crazy expensive, the only difference now is that things get more expensive… a little bit slower. But still vastly outpaces wage growth?
They think one is the choice of the mother, and the other the choice of god. Only god is allowed to renig on his promise of life. And besides if it wasn’t cruel, what would be the point?
Are you are referring to the recent vandalism? Because that was about as much vandalism as defacing a street with kiddy chalk. It wasn’t paint.
I agree that Isreal getting attacked was needed to begin the land grab and to maintain power of the political party, and to attempt to justify murder. I also agree that one reason the US is allied to Isreal its for a for hold in the region for us to project power. But that is about it. I don’t hold that America needs this partnership, to such a degree to overlook genocide.
