  • I don’t think those people have put much thought into the logistics on how that would happen, and that number would drop significantly if they did. This is what the Democrats should be messaging.

    Americans are pretty ideologically incoherent anyway. I’m pretty sure a majority supports granting amnesty to some or all illegal immigrants.

  • I don't understand that interpretation. The original comment was:

    Israel could have taken out entire hospital staffs with this “technique”. Hope they remain human and don’t.

    To which macarthur_park replied:

    Seems unlikely considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.

    They do not think it's likely that hospital staff, Hezbollah affiliated or not, could be in danger. I challenged that. I don't think they were aware that Hezbollah had a civilian wing at all, and that many public sector workers are technically "Hezbollah-affiliated" due to the nature of the political situation there.

    No one has suggested that in this comment chain.

    Good, then we should all agree that this was a despicable attack on Israel's part and this whole conversation is pointless.

  • They said “Seems unlikely [that pagers would be in the hands of doctors] considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.”

    That article directly refutes that. It is heavily implied when you’re all saying “Hezbollah” you’re talking about militants. Again, it is unreasonable to suggest that workers, including doctors and nurses, that are part of the civilian arm of Hezbollah’s de facto government are fair targets in either morality or international law.

  • “Would be as in “would be the ones having peace talks if Hezbollah had ‘chosen peace’”

    Do you understand the difference in meaning between “were” and “would be”?

    There can’t be peace talks if you kill and maim the people you would be doing the peace talks with.

    This is a stupid argument because Israel is the clear aggressor in this conflict.

  • Hezbollah, the de facto government of large parts of Lebanon, ordered the pagers and widely distributed them. Many of them went to civilians for legitimate purposes. It's unreasonable to suggest that these are fair targets because they were briefly in Hezbollah's control at some point along the chain.
