In the hour after the ceasefire was declared, twelve rockets were launched from Gaza into Israel. All of them landed in open areas.[217][219] Air raid sirens sounded in Eshkol, Sderot, Hof Ashkelon, Ashdod, Kiryat Malachi and Sha'ar Hanegev. One rocket over Ashdod was intercepted by the Iron Dome.[220]

In the section called Post-ceasefire incidents. source

Are we pretending they didn't?

• trying to install any software that isn't already packaged explicitly for Ubuntu is a nightmare because there is no equivalent of the AUR for people to push build steps to and you're quite often left guessing what dependencies you need to install to get something to compile

In fairness it does have the PPA system which predates the AUR and does provide a good job of providing third party amd semi-third party software.

But you're right that Ubuntu has sold out on building snaps for software instead of ppas.

In the Gaza disengagement of 2005, Israel evicted every Jewish settler and resident in the Gaza strip and pulled back to the 1967 borders.

It was a move by Israel's left wing parties to prove that such an action, if taken across all of the West Bank, would be successful at providing peace to the region.

Russia clearly invaded Ukraine. Don't be a doofus.

Neither party in this war was illegally occupying or settling the other.

Nobody in Gaza. Israel stopped doing so in 2005 in an effort to generate sustainable peace in the region.

What planet are you living on? Hamas will violate the cease fire on day one.

This particular conflict did indeed start then.

My grown son had a contract with his employer and they breached it. I want you to force them to do what they’re supposed to. No, you’re not a party. Either your son or a party legally entitled to act on his behalf or the company has standing and they can request we get involved. You don’t.

SCOTUS recently changed standing to invalidate student loan relief. If you have an expectation of income from the income lost I think you might have standing (like if your son pays you rent). That's how they invalidated the Student Loan forgiveness.

Claiming customers damaged things that were manufacturing issues is fraud. Tesla should likely be shut down for that action alone. But that would never happen.

That part stuck with me. The Taliban would rather children die en-mass then women sell knickknacks on a street corner.

Unfortunately Islam has impoverished the Arabic, Northern African and Central Asian nations for 1000 years, and the way it's going it's gonna impoverish them for the next 1000 years too.

Israel did lower the intensity of it's blockade. That was the deal a gradual removal of the blockade.

Yes and it specified hospitals as not being a target.

## Article 19

The protection to which civilian hospitals are entitled shall not cease unless they are used to commit, outside their humanitarian duties, acts harmful to the enemy. Protection may, however, cease only after due warning has been given, naming, in all appropriate cases, a reasonable time limit, and after such warning has remained unheeded.

The fact that sick or wounded members of the armed forces are nursed in these hospitals, or the presence of small arms and ammunition taken from such combatants which have not yet been handed to the proper service, shall not be considered to be acts harmful to the enemy.

Like that section is there. It's available for the reading. You don't have to lie about it like it's some sort of blanket protection. Israel gives warnings before it bombs these locations.

The Geneva convention also required to minimise civilian casualties. That is not happening.

This is objectively untrue. Gaza isn't big; you could kill 50% of the population with a WW2-era artillery bombardment. Israel is using expensive munitions; creating safe zones for civilians to evacuate to and phoning civilians before bombing dual-use locations in addition to roof knocking. If this was the Russians there'd be 200k dead Gazans right now.

If there is a poster in the hospital calling for socialism in a socialist country like Cuba, should they not operate there?

The Geneva convention specifies what sort of things are valid military targets. Posters aren't military equipment, ammunition is. Hamas can put as many fliers, books and posters as they want in hospitals and it's not a problem. It's the Ammo depots that make it a military target.

Because they kept firing rockets. 2008

During the initial week of the ceasefire, Islamic Jihad militants fired rockets on Israel. Under pressure from Hamas, Islamic Jihad had agreed to abide by the temporary truce, which was meant to apply only to Gaza, but had balked at the idea of not responding to Israeli military actions in the West Bank. The New York Times reported that the Islamic Jihad action broke the Hamas-Israeli Gaza truce.[3] During the next 5 months of the ceasefire, Gazan attacks decreased significantly for a total of 19 rocket and 18 mortar shell launchings,[3][4] compared to 1199 rockets and 1072 mortar shells in 2008 up to 19 June, a reduction of 98%.[5]

Pretty sure. A similar thing happened in 2013 too.

Re: they. If you don’t see the nuance between the different options I offered, perhaps you need to research mor

I'm always down to rewatch diehard. But what version of it spans two decades again? Is that the director's cut?

Once again, the hospitals in Gaza are not military depots.

This war has definitively proven this to be a false statement. Please re-evaluate your position based on updated data.

Abandoning a whole nation of people as there are terrorists among them is an easy way to abandon all apolitical medical help. They could not operate anywhere.

Emphasis mine. This is objectively untrue. There are many impoverished places on the planet that will not use a hospital as a weapons depot. In fact, the majority of impoverished places that need doctors without borders are willing to do this.

Also the "experiment" in Gaza failed because Israel has blockaded Gaza

The world's largest ever suicide bombing campaign started that blockade. And two decades of indiscriminate rocket fire kept it going.

The Iron Dome isn't magic. It can only intercept so many projectiles. No blockade and Gaza is recoccuoied in 2008.

Certainly Israel could have been more optimal in its handling of the Palestinian psuedo-states since 1967. And there are plenty of instances of actual evil activity by Israel and her citizens (see Settler violence in the West Bank as a perfect example of that). However the idea that Israel is committing a genocide is just hyperbole and it cheapens and discredits those who make that claim.

You definitely didn't say that.
