Yeah.. No

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.

Figures, the price hike was probably long overdue. Sucks that it hits so hard now but it is what it is

Neoliberal is going to Starbucks. Neoconservative is going to Starbucks and yelling at the hispanic barista.

Both the current and previous president are involved? Never realized Pee Gate goes this deep..

I think they made some wild statements when they fired her instead of the usual "After careful consideration..." HR text that everyone gives when letting people go. Given Elon has some deep pockets and doesn't shy away from burning money for dumb spite projects, they may have a shot of getting somewhere with Disney.

Never said forced, they just so happen to terminate about 42% of pregnancies.

Common capitalism W

Was there a possibility to hurt a Belgian official? No. Did they specifically try to hit the Belgian office? Probably also not. Unless we get some crazy leaks I don't think this should or will have any consequences whatsoever.

I still have no idea what you mean when you say "it's a trap", I have literally no idea what that's supposed to mean. Will the Isreali right secretly holocaust all of the queer people, is it like trap in the sense that all the trans women will larp as orthodox jewish women and therefore become traps or what did you mean?

People people not being unhinged about the royals challenge (impossible)

That still doesn't make any sense but OK... Guess its an improvement overall even if the situation in Israel is not great for them either

Lmao they're literally fighting a war to have a right to return to Israel, why would you think that a court choice like this is a trap? If anything this will piss off the israeli right wing.

Hey guys, remember when music wasn't all political? Back in my day we listened to Green Day and Rage against the Machine and not this wooooke garbage /s

Pandora's AI war drone box has pretty much been opened so might as well get ahead of the curve. More important than the utility in an actual war is the function of weapons as a deterrent to show that it's not worth fighting a war.

At least he had a fan and an air vent

If you consider me replying after a week or so because I didn't even read your message until now "rent free" then I guess your brain is just a bit broken. Makes sense considering your opinion. Farewell, there's no fun in dunking on people with mental deficiencies anyways.

You clearly consumed all of the stupid juice lmao. You're basically giving hamas a blank check on using human shields if you say that no amount of civilian casualties due to human shields are acceptable. You're pretty much asking them to shield their fighters, ammo and fuel with as many civilians as they possibly can. Almost sounds like you are the one who wants them killed so you can yell about how bad Israel is.

Let me spell it out again: If you use civilian infrastructure to conduct military operations you are painting a target sign on them since they become legitimate military targets. Israel still has to do strike assessments but if they figure out it's worth it the can strike it.

Imagine you had a policy that cops can never shoot puppies and some psycho wraps himself in a dozen of them and goes to shoot up an elementary school. Would you want someone to pull the trigger and potentially get some of the puppies killed or would you want them to wait until he runs out of ammo or maybe just negotiate with the psycho and convince him to just kill half of the children or something?

To address your scenario: Hospitals have a somewhat higher protection class than most other civilian assets. As opposed to the opinion of random shitters on the internet, they won't just bomb anything without doing a strike assessment first. This encompasses things like - How will engaging this target advance our goal of taking out hamas? Will an attack take out high value targets or assets? How many civilians and friendly soldiers are likely to die if we take a specific action?

Running through this analysis, using a large diameter bomb on a hospital is off the table from the get go. Hamas has already shown that they gladly get their own civilians killed, since dead civilians are bad for Isreals international standing. Instead they may opt to storm it with infantry and clear it this way. The issue is, this could still get lots of civilians killed and also their own soilders. Since the IDF are pretty limited on people they won't take engagements where they can expect to get like 30% of the people they send in killed or wounded. They may go for a third option and use something like those hellfire missiles. This may or may not work, will likely still get civilians killed and maybe not take out the people they want to. In that scenario they'd likely opt to not engage the target and wait for a better opportunity.

If you can't see how fucked up it is for someone to use hostages and first and foremost their own people as a bargaining chip to perform military actions against another country then I can't help you. Be better. Don't simp for terrorists.
