You're making a lot of assumptions about me that aren't in evidence. Anyway, nice talking to you, but our opinions are entrenched. We have perspectives that are totally different.
When the press vests and credentials are only handed out by Hamas a lot of insta-journos suddenly become professionals rather than PR for Hamas which is what they really are.
If he was in Gaza reporting then Hamas had to have approved. Israel found documents concerning him to PIJ in Gaza. Why aren't you as hyper-focused on Hamas crimes?

They know that if they allowed journos they had to protect them under international law. Every army keeps civilians and journos off the battlefield and in tight places like Gaza, its all the more important. Israel intentionally targeted Hamas' insta- journos. They had vests & credentials by Hamas.
Genocide requires dolus specialis. Specific intent. Some academics have watered down the definition but it's not legally correct. These ppl have not heard any evidence from Israel just from Hamas. No reporters who weren't approved by Hamas worked in Gaza, all you saw & heard was from them.
If we "lose' all will all say they were against it, but I won't. If it "succeeds" everyone will say they were for it. The problem is, we likely won't know what has actually happened for a decade.
Qeshm Island isn’t just a desalination site. It hosts IRGC naval bases, anti-ship missile batteries, drone launch areas, fast-attack boat facilities, naval commando units, and surveillance over the Strait of Hormuz. The plant serves 20K ppl and no confirmation we bombed it.
Okay. These convos are useless anyway.
We only have certain ways of getting information.
Genocide requires intent. Israel didn't have that. Gazans did. It doesnt require success. The only reason Gaza wasn't indicted is they aren't a state. But there were warrants from the ICC issued for Hamas leaders too. How can you defend them?

It is not built on the Superiority of Jews. That's your bias.
Ancient tribes around the world call themselves special. The most often used designation is "the people" and " the strangers", like "there's us and we're all good, then there's those others and we're not sure about them. Ever ethnography!
I believe the 5 eyes. They were building nukes. Why would i trust the Ayatollah? Iran will not get nukes. No one wants that. They will be stopped.
I don't believe the genocide smear.
Itvwas a coincidence then. Don't you see that much of the world seems to be moving toward fascism? It's sickening. Resources become scarce, ppl form scapegoats, and that's encouraged by leaders who want the focus off of them. But Jews are the canary in the coal mine. It never stops with us though.
I'm not naive enough to believe that the money would be spent on the ppl of this country. It wouldn't. But look around and see every piece of plastic. It's all made from petro, and the world stops moving w/o oil. Iran w/ nukes would control it all.
Ive been honest with you Archie. I truly have no reason not to be. Im not always right but im not purposely deceptive. I simply didn't want to write out that info with my thumb. Ive used Eco’s 14 points to show how the US is becoming fascist too, but Turks have a fascist streak since Attaturk.
We need oil or the world comes to a stand-still. Every piece of plastic around you is made with petrol, and all ships, planes, trains and still automobiles run on it. This isn't war for diamonds you know.
Isn’t this the truth!
They won't announce til they can move him into a deep bunker. Hope he's eliminated soon.
You're really good at pointing out faults but that's easy when you sit home. Look, your country used terrorism to fight England and it seems like you think your hands are clean.
B/c there r a ton of Irish ppl I talk to who hate Jews & Israel. It's been this way all of my adult life. I'm half Scots-Irish, and I don't feel like its even safe to visit there. Im tired of a country that does nothing, but enjoys the benefits, hating on an even smaller country who takes action.
If I'm not willing to write out all 14 characteristics of fascism & then apply them to Turkey on my phone screen, I can't exactly make the point. But, let me hear your points. I must admit that after years of these protracted conversations the only thing that's true is that Israel isn't moving.
I give them sit for the same reasons. They seem to believe the US is supposed to shoulder the burden of defending the world.
I have to run. I'll be back later on.
A reasonable response, but other tina nations took a stand.
Why don't you ever send troops to the Gulf area to help protect the shipping lanes. Why does that always fall to the US?
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
Explain to me how its wrong.
No. I can't. Not in this limited space.
Oh, that wasnt racist you're Irish.
I don't care.
The general assembly was what I was talking about. A bunch of petty potentates and tyrants.
Yes Turkey. That abomination called Erdogan. He's a fascist with blood dripping from his hands. How the hell they got into NATO is another horror mystery. But Israel isnt looking to expand into Turkey either. You need to stare a a map more often.
Didn't say "justified"i said accidents happen especially when you place schools adjacent to military stations.
And, Iran isn't justified when it, or it's proxies, bomb Israel at all. Their govt calls for the elimination of Israel. They're genocidal!
