Huh, at least it's Linux I guess? I've seen plenty Windows XP hanging around controlling expensive medical equipment and one time even a system were the control part was Windows 3.1. Air gapped not for security but because the server didn't have a NIC.
While RHEL and Fedora are siblings we can't mix em' like that. At least I haven't ever seen a server with Fedora pre-installed, or anyone offering support on a Fedora server...
And it's not referring to the depth of the tunnel. From the get go it's framing the "news" as evidence of Hamas being evil. Something we need no proof of after the countless atrocities they've committed, so the purpose, intended or otherwise is something else.
Then:
"Combat Engineering Corps’ 614th Battalion as they carried out a second round of sweeps in a single-family home — with an outdoor swimming pool — in an upscale beachside neighborhood."
Pointing out the swimming pool which is not necessary at all is text book to make your enemy seem amoral.
"soldiers had found a portal to where monsters were hiding."
Cute comparison to monsters under the bed or just a convenient way to get away with calling them monsters outright? Which while it holds true is not some objective fact that needs stating and is indisputably dehumanizing.
“It’s not ethical, the way that Hamas works,”
No shit Sherlock, we're talking about terrorists with more than 1000 civilians dead in just one attack. But here he's talking about hiding a tunnel in a kids room. Hardly the worst of their crimes. It's just to drum up feelings.
"With tendrils of underground fortifications running beneath crowded residential neighborhoods, the army says it has little choice but to bring the fight to the homes, hospitals, schools and clinics believed to shield the network."
Very overt way to say "it's OK that we bomb civilians, we need to to fight Hamas!" It's dangerous clearing tunnels yes, and it's very risk free to just bomb the ever living shit out of every building "believed to shield the network".
"
“We scan thoroughly, and there is intelligence, and the intelligence is very good. And there are means by which we both locate and destroy [the tunnels],” Adoniram said."
Not good enough to see the Oct 7 attack come but good enough to target hospitals huh? I don't really buy it.
"Many had fled south or were sheltering at schools or hospitals. By the UN’s estimate, some 1.5 million of Gaza’s population of over 2 million was internally displaced."
The same schools and hospitals they then bomb, leading to the thousands of dead civilians.
"
He had heard tell of an incident in which civilians who approached troops to ask for water had been used as cover for gunmen to open fire at the soldiers
"
Stuff like that needs to be precise, I don't necessarily doubt it but why isn't it confirmed fact but "had heard tell"? Why is it in the news? Why didn't they ask the source to confirm it?
I hate Hamas but this is just rage bait made to make you completely dehumanize the enemy, to make you OK with all the civilian Palestinian deaths in this war. It has no place in a news oriented community.
Strong honor culture makes it hard to move, you would cut contact with just about everyone you know if you're not moving to attend a prestigious university or taking a high end job, which is not on the table for the vast majority.
The overall purpose and function of each component, the PCB and PSU can go pretty far back, maybe even prior to the invention of the semi-conductor. I think without knowledge of electricity, and even AC current, would make it very hard since they couldn't power it on. So my bet is around 1880 and it would need to be investigated by Nicolai Tesla.
But if we mean construct a similar one we're going to need a lot of tech which you can't infer from looking at the components, no matter what tools you have. The build of a modern CPU/GPU chip is absolutely mind-blowingly complex. 10 years for sure, 20 years likely, 30 years and I'm unsure. 40 years and it's going to be extremely alien. 50 years completely impossible.
You could be extremely careful to only take with you evidence that would be fresh but not before the fact. Explaining how you got them will be the tricky part either way
Just wanted to say though that it's a bit unfair to compare Iraq to this. Iraq wasn't fueled by raw emotion and rage. It was a lot more calculated since it was (framed as) a preventive measure. How the US acted the first month of Afghanistan is far more apples to apples. And from my research the US did draw immediate criticism for their bombings. And keep in mind that Afganistan is far less densly populated compared to Gaza.
"The war, launched by the United States as "Operation Enduring Freedom" in 2001, began with an initial air campaign that almost immediately prompted concerns over the number of Afghan civilians being killed. "
The number is 2300 dead civilians in 2001, and since the operation began in October thats 2300 in three months. If we extrapolate that to a full year that pace marks the most intense period of civilian deaths by a wide margin. Which matches my assumption that the opening actions, when fueled by intense emotion, leads to a disregard of civilians life. As an aside, those opening months about the same amount of civilians died as the total amount US servicemen in Afghanistan for the whole 20 year war (2300 vs 2400).
Can you point out the minus for grandpa here who can't see for shit apparently?
feels like the clearer icons if I just go on your text description. More of this, less of that. Heart always to me felt too much, like do I really love this song? So I only hearted very few songs, and only blocked even fewer, because that's also very harsh feeling. So I prefer this, if the UI is good? But I can't really tell from the image
Because the politicians know that if they propose/push for a ceasefire then the whole world will SCREAM hypocrisy over US response to 9/11. There is no way to get away with being that overtly "Do as I say not as I do" high-horse.
Now as for the people, most, in retrospect, think the war on terror was if not an outright sham at least a wild overreaction in terms of leading to 20 years of war. When the mission people supported was "Take Osama bin Laden out".
Elaborate on "following the restoration of page" I'm unfamiliar with the term "page" in this context?
As for my position it's only that I hate how violence is somehow "justified" as if anything can give you the right to end someone else's life. It might be considered naive, utopian or simplistic by some but it really isn't. Almost every human subscribe to some level of sacredness of human life. Some extend it only to their family, some to all humans irregardless but we pretty much all agree that at least some life can't be ended morally, be it kids or whatever. Just about everyone has at sometime been a sacred life in the eyes of the majority of humans, and that the reason they stopped being seen such is almost never grounded in factual, indisputable truth but opinion, prejudice, lies, circumstances and assumptions. If we, as most agree, see humans as fallible then we shouldn't be able to declare someone's life as no longer sacred and worth protecting. And from that simple position we can extrapolate that any active attempts to end someone's life is amoral, the only moral kill is one in (proportional) self-defense. Which is of course what both Israel and Hamas argue they're doing, to varying extent. It's their main justification for why they're (morally) in the right.
Up to there I think I have a good majority on board. Then people put vastly different things into what constitutes proportional self-defense. Which is what I assume you're alluding to. Am I then right to think that your position as such is that it's still self-defense and still proportional and the two bullet points are examples of when it stops being proportional?
EDIT:
I see you've edited to "restoration of peace". What does that mean in a place that hasn't seen peace for over 80 years? What "peace" are you referring too? The pre Oct 7 status quo? If so isn't restoration of peace hinging on Israel leaving Gaza more so than anything else?
Add in the 1300 dead Israeli civilians (and 3000 or so more injured) in the heinous Oct 7 attack and we're still extremely skewed without even mentioning the thousands dead since Oct 7th.
I'm absolutely not supporting Hamas here. But I'm also vehemently opposed to Israel, as in the government, not the civilians. I understand there is no quick fix. But acting like Israel is the only victim in this is blood boiling.
The company which is responsible for their own financial records can get in trouble. And he could get in trouble if he destroyed them at their office. But if they dumped them at his house without a contract then he is free to dispose of them from his property.
Casualty is both dead and injured as an FYI. So not one casualty in this instance.
I agree this isn't a good example of the IDF acting in the same vein as Hamas, but I also understand the frustration of OP, watching an organized military bomb civilians indiscriminately for a month while the majority of western world governments cheer them on while saying "please reduce the civilian slaughter, it's getting uncomfortable to defend" in about the mildest way you can say something like that, is demoralizing at best. That we still can't agree that unilaterally, no matter the circumstances, killing civilians in indiscriminate bombings simply can't be accepted and needs to be condemmed in the strongest terms possible makes me disappointed in humanity and democracy.
It's just threat of government shutdown on repeat these years it seems. First it was years between events, now we're on what? Months? Weeks almost. It's like they can't come to any form of consensus unless the fabric of the US hangs on them doing so. Like a porn addict that can only cum if he's watching some deranged shit.
