Right now, the ideal response to the Iranian attack is not to strike Tehran, but to strike Beirut. Force them to either escalate more than they can afford, in which Israel could strike them with America's blessing, or to lose face, which will grant Israel more freedom of action in Lebanon. Striking Beirut will place Iran in a lose-lose situation and Israel in a win-win situation without pissing off the Americans too much. It's the best response.
Unpopular opinion: the French conquest of Algeria was entirely morally justified. Algeria was a criminal state that lived off robbing and enslaving Europeans and Americans. The war put an end to its massive slave trade and piracy operation. This is a good thing.
Whenever you buy any Turkish product or service, you're funding the illegal occupation of EU member state Cyprus and the ethnic cleansing of the indigenous Kurdish people in North Syria. Silence is complicity.
That's funny. The condom flotilla returned to Spain and instantly had the shit kicked out of them by the local police. Ironically, much rougher than the Israeli police. It's almost as if they're insufferable pricks who can't be handled any other way even by friendly nations...
Islamophobia isn’t a real thing, it’s just a word that was invented to be used as a terminological social shield for pure evil. A phobia is an irrational fear, and it’s perfectly rational to fear a death cult that worships a 7th century mass murdering psychotic pedophile.
Interesting!
A man from Gaza who lost his wife and children in the war, made a formal submission to the International Criminal Court demanding 14 Hamas leaders be investigated for crimes against the Palestinian people.
The submission includes the following crimes:
- utilizing the presence of civilians as human shields
- attacking civilians
- intentionally directing attacks against civilian objects
- willfully causing great suffering
- destruction and appropriation of property
- excessive incidental death, injury, or damage
- attacking protected objects
- committing outrages upon personal dignity
- using, conscripting, or enlisting children
- execution without due process
The man is represented by Eli Rosenbaum, a former senior US Justice Department war crimes prosecutor, French attorney Sarah Scialom, and American attorney Elliot Malin.
If the submission is accepted, this will be the first time Hamas members are charged with crimes committed against their own civilians.
My biggest investigation ever:
Clash Report — the conspiracy-peddling account that half of X treats as gospel — is a Turkish influence operation, disguised as breaking news and tied to Erdoğan's family.
The operators didn't put their names on the door.
So I did it for them.
In the '90s, Israelis were obsessed with peace. We even had a subject called "peace" in school. The level of evil and sadism required from the enemy to cure Israelis of this delusion is staggering. I hope you enjoy the results in your blasted ruins and leaky tents.
