“How can it be genocide if their population is increasing? :smug:” is one of the most reprehensible things I’ve read in 20 years on these forums.

How do you respond to somebody using this argument? I've heard it in real life and anticipate that I will again. I'll probably have to be "civil" as well.

I can't imagine it's one they weren't expecting? They were probably a lot more successful than expected, but Israeli terror bombing is always on the cards. If they miscalculated at all it was probably in how little Israel gave a gently caress about killing hostages?

Golda Meir once said, "We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children. We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children."

Think about that for a minute. I know I did very frequently, because my former office's secretary had that quote framed on the wall.

Centrist Dad posted:

Hamas played right into Israel's hands with their grandma-abducting agenda. Israel has been waiting for decades for an excuse to liquidate Gaza, and now they have one. The only thing standing in the way of Israeli bloodlust was always Hamas's moral high ground, and now that Hamas doesn't have it any more they're toast.

Centrist Dad posted:

quote from 5 months ago, but that strikes a chord for me...my whole childhood and adolescence, I was taught that the Arabs in Israel were THIS CLOSE to pushing the Jews into the sea. Took me 30 years to unlearn that poo poo.

are you sure you've unlearned anything?

I mean, if you absolutely had to respond civilly, point out that per the UN genocide has nothing to do with population growth rates:

quote:

Any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; [and] forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

So you tell them they're wrong, it is literally genocide.

As for me, I would probably just walk away without saying anything lest I linger for a moment too long and spit on them.

28 days, per whatever I could dig up. They're pretty cagey about it, and of course can rely on the US just topping them off for free, but their War Stores across all categories are supposed to be 28 days.

I like that Tiktok even scare quoted "community guidelines" as if they know what they're doing
since 2020 tiktok in the west has been staffed with various NATO freaks

https://www.mintpressnews.com/nato-tiktok-pipeline-why-tiktok-employing-national-security-agents/280336/

quote:

Since 2020, there has been a wave of former spooks, spies and mandarins appointed to influential positions within TikTok, particularly around content and policy – some of whom, on paper at least, appear unqualified for such roles.

For example, while simultaneously being the Content Policy Lead for TikTok Canada, Alexander Corbeil is also the vice president of the NATO Association of Canada, a NATO-funded organization chaired by former Canadian Minister of Defense David Collenette. In order to join TikTok, Corbeil left his job at the SecDev Foundation, a U.S. State Department-funded security think tank. Corbeil’s work focused on Middle Eastern security and in particular on the war in Syria and what NATO’s role should be.

Another NATO-linked new recruit is Ayse Koçak, a Global Product Policy manager at the company. Before joining TikTok last year, she spent three years at NATO. Like Corbeil, Koçak had special expertise in Middle Eastern politics, including a year’s tour in Iraq as the organization’s deputy senior civilian representative.

But FR, as has been pointed out the IDF needs to destroy Gaza with (militarily) pointless and cruel bombing because their deterrence is gone and the IAF is the only capable part of it. To paraphrase someone ITT, they've been revealed to be a conscript army of cops, with an Air Force.

You might remember the opening US strikes on Afghanistan being carried out by B-52s, B-1s and B-2s. Same deal.

Israeli attacks continue as people flee north Gaza

By Jamileh Abu Zanoona in Khan Younis

We’re at a training centre run by the UN in Khan Younis. We left north Gaza by UN cars, and there was bombing along the way as we arrived, but the situation is indescribable.

More and more people are getting here after people were advised to go to the south no matter which area, but they’re fleeing the north completely. However, there are still many people who are unable to leave because of their situation.
