Thank you. So, you can calmly finish your current task and even get a whiff of sleep and a meal to be fit for the deployment. Or do people tend to sleep/dooze in the deployment area?

With the US having soldiers in the area in closer areas and the situation being very volatile, one would think that the soldiers aren't coming from the US.

These who received the orders were already on 96-hour prepare-to-deploy status, which has now been shortened to 24 hours.

So, how do I imagine this. Does this mean everything already packed up and ready to go, with everyone relieved from any regular duty, ready to put on boots and walk to the planes at any moment?

This is somewhat stressful to look at

We want you guys back.

Although you're a bit in shambles right now, you're still a weight in economy and military that adds to the EU. All the more once you're in better times. The more similiarly aligned countries, the better so we can actually stand next to the titans of the USA and China that we couldn't stand up to alone.

But yeah, I don't think you get your extra benefits back.

On other platforms. The fediverse is lucky to be relatively unimportant, so the JIDF, or whatever the successor if it is called, is probably not active here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JewishInternetDefenseForce

Yeah, they will ultimately cooperate as the USA and Europe increasingly go "hey guys, please no genocide", but as slow and as little as they can.

Let me euphemize this for you properly.

"We are posting soldiers there to keep the peace. Also we're creating a zone of 10 kilometers where no Palestinians can live to keep Israelis safe. Also we're settling Israelis into the zone. Oh, now the Palestinians are close again. Now they need to move another 10 kilometers to keep Israelis safe. Also, we're settling Israelis into the zone. Oh, ..."

Yeah, the only thing Israel is concerned about is the international reputation. They know they can't go full ham, even now every western government in support is dropping the "and I am SURE Israel will keep to international law" as a hint and reminder that there is a limit somewhere.

Yeah, Germany hasn't activated soldiers yet, but the police in all states is on high alert and direct protection of Jewish buildings was bumped up. If there was a murder, we would probably too activate more units for responses.

Lindsey has a solution for every problem.

Sadly that solution is always to bomb Iran.

Tried that after my didn't find my keys one time and I found my keys afterwards, so I think it did help.

They were dragged from the vehicle - marked "TV" in red tape - searched and pushed against a wall.

Mr Tutunji and Mr Abudiab said they identified themselves as BBC journalists and showed police their press ID cards.

While attempting to film the incident, Mr Tutunji said his phone was thrown on the ground and he was struck on the neck.

Fuck, and here I thought "okay, maybe a honest mistake, tensions are running high". But nope, pure malice.

Best of luck, I am hoping every day that Starmer isn't doing something silly. Like eating breat. Which is apparently deadly in British politics opposed to riding the country into shit, which is a-ok.

Oh, when it comes to the specific conflict zone, yeah. That's a very British cross to bear.

I hope you get a reasonable government soon. It's so sad how the UK currently looks, the government is too busy being proud of the past to make anything for people to be proud about in the present.

Classic case of shooting the messenger

I mean, Bernie Sanders always had that. That's a good part of why people liked him.

See him arguing against various wars where he stood among few against the many and was so far right on these takes:

One of the comments under the videos puts it well:

For every wrong move america has made in the last 40 years, there is a video of Bernie arguing against it.

Hamas IS being condemned, rightfully so.

I know. Do you understand why I wrote how I wrote it?

To break it down for you: "This thing that's right. This people that's right. But also this."

It's to let you see these three things on a smiliar level.

Now, then. You also misundstood the cheering part as literal. It is to be taken as encoragement. Our politicians support all of Israel's actions as defense, that includes cutting off electricity, fuel and water, bombing whole blocks which killed among many innocent palestinians UN workers, and the recent announcement for hundreds of thousands of people to relocated within 24 hours.

Not to mention the old, the sick and the disabled. On top of that the numerous injured from the bombings.

Yeah, my country, Germany, historically doesn't even have much choice but to support Israel. Protests in favour of Palestine are banned in various cities, we will be sending arms to Israel. Our media are drumming that now is not the time to remind Israel of human rights and that that the democracy would surely work it out afterwards.

Jews should feel safe in Germany. We should condemn Hamas. But there is no need to cheer on the extermination of non-Hamas Palestinians in Gaza at the same time.

Also, large crowds fleeing in panic are not exactly save in themselves. And don't even start with people with disabilities.

After 24 hours Israel will slaughter who is left and pretend like everyone who isn't Hamas had time to leave. This smells like a thin concession so Israel can pretend like they follow international laws for whatever comes next.
