Very specifically, the original case was a bank robbert turned multi day hostage situation in which the hostage taker treated the hostages well and the police, according to the hostages, acted incompetently and without regard for their safety.

Can't imagine that applying at all in the current situation.

Also the dude who invented the term was a driving force in Swedish zero-tolerance drug laws which now has Sweden topping the list in drug related deaths in Europe, only competing with UK for the top spot. And iirc he wanted all drug addicts, in which he included regular alcohol drinkers, nicotine users and coffee drinkers, to be sent to a penal colony on Öland, the smaller one of the big islands. Just a top notch dumbass who has done immense harm on Swedish society.

Unless they're really funny-bad. If it's just genocide denial, then don't post em.

I think this bit from the same person is fascinating in addition to inducing nausea like the rest of their posting

quote:

If they walk their trail of tears, losing many on the way, they gain all the worldwide sympathy. If they hold out and create problems for the militants they lose sympathy among the third party moderates, who are those they need the most right now. If they stay put and demand a cease fire they aren’t realizing the world isn’t on their side as much as they think it is after the attack. The Arab world might be, but there’s no Arab military that’s worth a drat who is going to step in. And most of those Arab countries are more afraid of internal unrest than stopping Israel.

It's the uber example of the white tears/fixation of white moderates. Makes us feel bad. Don't stop the ethnic cleansing. In fact accelerate so the most important thing could be induced, us feeling slightly bad for a short period of time. That's what's really important here.

The Hippocratic oath persuades them to heal anyone who comes, even if they grab a gun and shoot their neighbor after recovering. It doesn’t demand they put thousands in harms way to save a few. The doctors are effectively using the civilians sheltered there as shields at this point. There’s not 5000 critical patients in the hospital, but there are people. The doctors are effectively playing politics and it’s emotional at this point to argue otherwise.

The last time a western military invaded Iran it was easy-peasy lemon squeezy. Just bribe key commanders not to resist, hit them from the north & south and install a friendly child as the new ruler.
