DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:I’m normally pretty cynical and jaded about this stuff but I was buckling my son in his stroller just now and I thought about how he’s never done anything to anyone and how all he wants is to be loved, and he deserves a chance to grow up, and then I thought about all the Palestinian babies who want and deserve the same things and now I’m really hosed up same. my kids are older, my youngest is 10 now, but the video of the shaking kid being comforted by the doctor completely hosed me up. dti.

https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1715036953912259006 There's no real way for Israel to make statements like this publicly and then back down without suffering permanent humiliation on the international stage. You can't really back down from rhetoric like this.

Israeli economy minister says captives, civilians secondary to destroying Hamas: Report ABC news reports that Israeli Economy Minister Nir Barakat has said captive and civilian casualties will be secondary to destroying Hamas, “even if it takes a year”. “We shall do all efforts to bring our hostages, to bring our hostages [back] alive…” he told ABC, but the “first and last priority” is destroying Hamas.

Razing Gaza from the air fastly is possible, but Israel doesn't have the types and numbers of aircraft they would need to do that. They're using a few hundred tactical fighters that carry a few tons of bombs at a go, which means you need tens of thousands of sorties to deliver the kind of explosive mass needed to level a city. Dedicated heavy bombers carry ten times more, which is important because you have to deal with maintenance cycles, ground crews, available crews, etc. to generate each sortie, things that don't change that much regardless of which type of aircraft you're turning around. Even ATC and available runways become a limiting factor at a certain point. It's not just (or even mainly) about the raw number of bombs available. They're the same basic reasons why artillery throws more bomb for the same money than aircraft do. and of course quote:The Israeli Air Force (IAF) is the second largest user of the F-16 Fighting Falcon, second only to the U.S. Air Force and its reserve components. The IAF achieved the type's first air-to-air victories when its F-16s shot down two aircraft, a Mil Mi-8 helicopter and a Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 fighter plane, both Syrian, in April and July 1981 respectively.[50] They neoliberalized their air force, further reducing their actual capability in favor of  precision networked strike

moths posted:Second, they're doing the junk science thing where you start with the conclusion and backfill any supporting information, however flimsy. This is how you "prove" evolution is fake, man walked with dinosaurs, vaccines cause autism, etc etc. This is also just the direct result of the way their "research" works. Since it's just googling/internet stuff, they (almost by necessity) start with their conclusion and then start looking up stuff to support it. They're generally not going to see information they're not looking for because, well, they're not looking for it. "Traditional" research using actual books and stuff actually requires that you read the books, so you'll be exposed to a bunch of other context and information. But with this internet stuff, it's all guided by their intentions. "I'm looking for X to try and prove Y."

VoicesCanBe posted:https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1715036953912259006 They've been saying they're going to do a ground invasion for like four days now and obviously keep putting it off because the IDF has always been unwilling to suffer casualties and this is going to mean a lot of casualties. I'm not saying they'll never do it, but I think they're fine with seeing if they can just let mass starvation happen without objection. So far it appears to be working.
