The problem with cars isn’t solely because of the internal combustion engine. Replacing ICE cars with EV’s doesn’t solve the problems associated with the infrastructure and city planning we’ve built around cars.
EV’s aren’t the solution. Trains are.
I don’t need to back my words with the domain I come from.
That is a pretty pathetic response, especially when you follow it up with a made up scenario. Especially in defense of a state sponsor of terrorism.
Also, if you’re going to make your money publishing Hasbara, you need to learn how to use the correct ‘your’.
Is not a response that indicates you read what was written.
Evidence that you have no critical reading skills. Either that, or no capacity for empathy.
Things are better, right here and now, for Palestinians. Will they remain better? Probably not.
Will they be worse? No. You can’t get worse then actively being genocided. Genocide is binary.
‘Why do you care that I’m a white south African from apartheid days when you’re accusing me of being racist? What does that matter?’
It’s not ‘trust me, bro’ when it is public fucking history. It’s just you being ignorant to the point that if someone sent you links they would have to be posted with ‘let me google it for you’
Asking for proof when someone says the sky is blue doesn’t do anything but make you look stupid or bad faith.
You’re right, it was also terrorism and the slaughter of civilians.
Then you’re ignorant of both history and geopolitics.
Israel is a client state, full stop, of the US. Reagan made one phone call and ended the war in Lebanon.
In fact, Israel institutionally, does not know how to end wars, because they’ve never done it. The US has always ended their wars for them.
Israel has received a full third of all foreign aid the US has ever given out. It isn’t a state on it’s own. It ceases to exist and will go bankrupt almost immediately without the US.
Your whole ‘Biden couldn’t force them to stop’ schtick is either bad faith or ignorance of every aspect of the history of that region.
There is a reason that Trump didn’t stop foreign aid to Israel and Egypt when he froze it everywhere else. Neither state would continue to exist if he hadn’t.
That is a good definition of a horrible person.
You’re the poster child for the banality of evil.
They didn’t.
You just didn’t like the translation of your words into their consequences.
Most Nazi civilians weren’t evil in any special unique way. They just didn’t care about any moral framework more than they cared about not having the status quo broken.
It’s an aspect of the banality of evil.
Your attitude, sadly the most common attitude, is the main driving force for the most heinous of outcomes.
Here it is being used to justify the literal end of the fucking human race and turning our planet into Venus.
They spied for a foreign government. They should have been required to register as foreign agents and the only reason they didn’t was because the foreign government was Israel. Instead they just had to notify the US citizens they spied upon that they spied upon them, and what they discovered.
This was a literal investigated criminal case, this isn’t supposition.
Your serious doubts is nothing more than ignorance.
EDIT: Another thing that is not supposition. Israel was one of the final supporters of Apartheid South Africa. They supported them even after the US stopped.
Pick up a history book.
And Yes, Israel has just spent the last 15 months committing what every human rights organization has declared a genocide. Can’t get more nazi’ish then committing a genocide.
Jesus, you are desperately clutching at straws.
Anyone aware of Israels position, and the history of how/why Israel has its wars ended for it, understands what happened.
Especially given this is literally the same treaty that has been signed by Hamas since February.
Never forget that the ADL spied on American citizens for Apartheid South Africa on behalf of Israel during the Reagan administration.
I’m not saying he’s better in general.
But, on this specific one thing he is better, and that is only because Biden is a blood soaked monster that didn’t care about the genocide enough to make a single phone call.
Israel is a client state that is wholly dependant on free US weapons and money. Israel has received a third of ALL the cumulativw foreign aid that the US has given out over its lifetime.
Threatening to turn the free weapons and money spigot off is enough to compel Israel to do what the US wants. This is why Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Bush Jr. were able to that exact thing.
Biden chose not to end the genocide. Hamas has accepted this deal since February.
At any point in time Biden could have picked up the phone and ended this. He made the choice not to and is responsible for every dead refugee and dead IDF soldier since then.
There is nothing difficult about any of this moral calculus at all.
EDIT: and to be clear, I didn’t think Trump would be better. I thought he would be as bad. But we have a temporary peace deal that we didn’t before. Israel, the country that raped multiple Gazan hospital administrators to death, stopped bombing civilian refugees.
There is a lot of sources. This is basically public knowledge. Any search would have found them for you.
I should have run the link above through the Let Me Google That For You website.
You just did.
Israel just releaseed 77 children from prison.
You absolutely do for a client state that is completely dependant on your free weapons and money.
This is the same deal that has been in place since May.
Biden could have forced this through at any time, exactly as Reagan, Clinton, and Bush did.
You should feel embarrassed that you literally know nothing about our relationship with Israel.
Is there a peace deal now that his ambassador, Steve Witkoff, forced through?
Even if it is temporary, that is still better.
There is no worse then rock bottom. That is where Biden is. The worst you could do is stay in the same place.
I did too with the joplin sync server until, without a failure or any error messages, it ate all my notes.
