Today they have something like 7 minutes to decide whether to launch a retaliatory strike if missiles are en route if recall correctly, 12 hours seems like a luxury.

Yes, and there’s precedent that he can still run even if he’s imprisoned.

Debs ran for president in the 1920 election while imprisoned in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary.

Interesting read.

Even without the saltwater problem, drinking from the end of the Ganges sounds pretty bad considering how polluted that river is.

I have a hard time understanding the mentality of people having kids while complaining, there’s not enough fresh water.

I suppose it’s good that most of the local water supply here in ca comes from mountain snowpack melts.

That’s entirely subjective and up to you, however, I feel like I should point out we’re dealing with our own erosion of democracy issues in the United States as well.

The ccp stranglehold on electronics? Yeah I’m glad they’re ruining that. At the end of the day, we might have a viable semiconductor business in the United States or in an allied country, which will leave us far better off.

Privatized profits socialized losses

Oh did you receive $30 million from him too? 🙄

Are you really suggesting that every asymmetrical war that is conducted successfully is genocide? O.o

Oct 7 literally is an act of genocide, see my post above. You’re saying they don’t have credibility because you don’t understand what genocide is. This designation has nothing to do with body count.

Oh, I forgor, the United Nations is Hamas now.

Oh no don’t forgor. They’re not Hamas but they do exhibit significant anti-Israel bias.

Three countries were on said commission of inquiry:

Navi Pillay (South Africa), serves as chair, Miloon Kothari (India) and Chris Sidoti (Australia) serve as members of the commission

Many more opposed their methods and conclusions:

June 2023, United States and Israel joined 25 countries in condemning the open-ended nature of the UN investigation and “the long-standing disproportionate attention given to Israel in the council.”

But that’s the UN for you, lots of scrutiny and condemnation of Israel, not a peep when Jews are ethnically cleansed from neighboring countries.

Israel is not committing genocide in Gaza, some Jewish scholars stress

Sorry to invade your echo chamber with dissent. It must pain you to be reminded that not everyone agrees with you, that must be so hard for you.

an occupying nation like Israel can not claim self defense when attacked

Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005. A blockade is not an occupation.

If someone punches you to death, declaring they weren’t trying to kill you doesn’t make them any less guilty of murder.

Actually, in the US it could. Intent is the difference between murder and manslaughter.

It’s almost as if words mean things and have specific definitions, especially legal ones. Feel free to criticize such behaviors with different accurate words for things you don’t like.

If you’re going to define your movement as anti-genocidal you should really have a firm grasp on what genocide is and who is committing it:

Article II of the Convention defines genocide as:
… any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

• (a) Killing members of the group;
• (b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
• © Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
• (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
• (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

Hamas, what Israel has been clear they intend to destroy, is not a national, ethnical, racial or religious group. However, Jews/Israel/Israelis, what Hamas has been clear they intend to destroy, are. Therefore, legally Oct 7 was an act of genocide, and Israel’s war on Hamas is not. Such a designation has nothing to do with body count.

I support Israel because I oppose the genocidal. Binding their hands and preventing them from retaliating in self-defense only serves to support genocidal Hamas by keeping them in power.

To a certain degree, as they mentioned in the article regarding the casimir effect. While one cannot keep out the quantum foam entirely, it can be restricted to specific wavelengths by altering the volume of the space.

“Trump Bad” as a campaign strategy is losing Democrats this election.

What an odd take, considering every election is about candidates proving to the public that they are better than their opponent for the job.

Trump led an insurrection against the United States of America. Maybe return to that.

Isn’t that also, “Trump bad?”

Yes, yes you are.

I’m saying you shouldn’t make up a story without evidence and you should save your outrage until the facts are in. It’s not complicated. You don’t know what happened. Stop pretending you do.

You are clearly eager to blame Israel without evidence.

And you’re presuming it was one of those three branches without evidence to that effect. Lot of presuming going on here.
