Really wonder what all those Americans stuck in bases all over Syria are thinking right about now. Are they really going to stay there if things go hot? Seems like a terribly isolated position.

The phrase 'all in on a busted flush' came to mind when thinking about the USA's continued backing of Israel. Also that I'm pretty sure there's been writings on how an imperial colonialist state cannot function at all without a constant stream of loot and plunder from subjugated and genocided peoples, because as soon as that breaks down the system starts to surely collapse as all institutional knowledge that it's even possible to function in any other way has been liquidated and suppressed. Especially bad when it's propped up long enough to produce an entire generation with the fascist mindset, which is being a whiny, useless, tedious failchild, completely unable to function outside an environment specifically constructed to prop them up. (and barely able even within it)

The lies get regurgitated until they can drown out the crimes they're enabling. It's the only way they can keep their consciences clean. With enough time, it can trickle through the DIA up to the presidents office (since apparently his daily briefs were based on Oryx numbers). Then it's legitimate because someone put a classified sticker on it and told a senescent moron "the truth."

Seems like a terribly isolated position. Even the vast majority of people in the West don't know they are there. The isolation is the point -- if something happens to them the West can choose to amplify and engage or downplay and ignore depending on the operational requirements at the time.

gradenko_2000 posted:at some point the intelligence services figured out that some segments of the population did not trust the "free" press anymore, on top of already not trusting the government Yeah exactly. OSINT is to reddit guys what vaccine memes are to old facebook people, it’s the truth They don’t want you to know. It’s the same weird poo poo with all the same problems, just calibrated for a different demographic. You’ve got that cool acronym that makes it sound tactical, it says open source right there in the name so true nerds know it’s trustworthy and there’s no money involved, and it just so happens that the news almost always favors the interests of smart people just like you! There’s something very cynical about the way it’s distributed, it’s perfectly positioned for the guy who googles computer fixes and is therefore the computer guy among friends and family. Not so high up that it becomes a household word or common topic, not so low that it requires any real digging to find, it’s kind of perfectly geared for the busy autodidact who wants to tell people they’re wrong but doesn’t have the time or ability to figure out why. It’s no wonder that it kills on reddit

Yeah, it's literally Media War aka PsyOps. You get the narrative A/B testing division in action, this gets distilled into little info graphics by OSINT types and ultimately broadcast in tweets and short video content, all this is measured and mixed around back and fore for a while to ensure it plays well across the board (mistakes can be ignored by weight of new content) until the lazy journalists are told to shove it into the industrial broadcaster. Practically none of them even need to work for any intelligence agency, just those that control the fitness function, so to speak.

I’m not sure how a cease fire is actually beneficial to the complicated situation at hand. These are two militaries at war. Hamas wants to hide and just restart again. Hamas is unapologetically hiding in hospitals and schools and behind civilians. Always has been. Israel has made the intent to wipe out this network in northern Gaza by making it untenable for all civilians before the clean up operation. Hospitals are defying this under a shroud of righteousness, but can also be interpreted as effectively a form of defiance and protection for Hamas since they are known bad actors. You can’t claim a creed when you know your actions are delaying what the other party has made clear is an inevitable. ‘Do no harm’ doesn’t mean knowingly put hundreds people at exponential risk to have a slight increased chance save a couple. The WHO can put out statements all they want, but they aren’t helping the situation. Israel clearly wants civilians gone so they can access the hidden networks and shoot anything that moves on sight. Hamas is doubling down on taking advantage of the situation at the expense of Palestinians. The difference between other wars and this one is the overt willingness to use it’s own citizens as fodder to advance the war effort that Hamas employs. Armies that actually defend the will of the people wouldn’t stoop that low on such a large scale. Now whether Israel knowingly let the yon kippur attack ‘surprise’ them and used their own citizens as fodder to reignite the conflict and this not be a story of incompetence is a whole other conspiracy chat. But that’s attributing incompetence to covert malice, which is rarely true. Hamas using citizens as shields is a strategy, not incompetence, hence the simpler argument to make.

here's an "interesting" way that the OSINT dynamic plays out: Francesco Sebregondi does his own "counter-OSINT" thread (which was already posted here in full) to try and throw cold water on the prevailing OSINT narrative, that the lack of damage purportedly inflicted by the missile was so small that it could not have been an Israeli JDAM, and a low-power Hamas/PIJ missile fits better (to say nothing of the follow-on supporting narrative that not as many people died in the bombing as was initially claimed) Sebregondi cites an HRW report of a known instance of an Israeli drone strike would be capable of creating a small crater. That is, given the OSINT-derived photo of a small crater at the site of the bombing, a crater so small that it could not possibly have been caused by a JDAM, here's a possible alternative: an Israeli drone missile could have caused that small crater, instead of a small Hamas/PIJ rocket. Someone named Marc Garlasco then steps in and quotes Sebregondi's thread, saying he wrote the HRW report that Sebregondi cites, and then appeals to his own authority, that he knows what these Israeli drone missiles are capable of, and they'd still produce a much larger crater than what was photographed. So it still couldn't have been the Israelis. Indeed, Sebregondi's tweet has since had a Community Note attached to it, citing Garlasco's response. This is all well and good, until you check Garlasco's background:   and ask yourself: would someone in this line of work have a personal interest in using his own sense of expertise to run a smokescreen for the IDF?

Then a crew of ambulances comes in carrying the dead and injured.

Holy poo poo the official ministry of health spokesman just did a presser stating fuel and medicine is completely gone for all Gaza hospitals then an ambulance arrives behind the camera with a bunch of dead babies being rushed out. The camera had to cut away and the translator went off speech while saying "oh my god...." could not continue translating what the official was saying as he was completely shook.

When you flame someone who sucks rear end, it is sometimes better not to flame their true greatest flaw, but rather the one they are most insecure about. A person who habitually posts in d&d is deeply insecure about their intelligence. Therefore, you should identify when they are being retarded - and flame accordingly.
