I just hope I don't die in whatever comeuppance America finally gets because there will be no slowing down until something catastrophic happens.

Been thinking more and more about just becoming a loving hermit in the woods. I hate this place.

I think that presentation at the court achieved its objective because it was such a boring slog I lost all my will to decry the occupation for a minute.

Was there anything of any actual value in there? I saw it and I legit can't tell.

These strikes were ordered for domestic political points weren't they. Biden admim knows this isn't going to actually materially effect the situation beyond escalation.

all of this, and also that they speak with basically flawless english accents and then only pull out the kh-sound for KHAMAS.

Ben Aris on the recent RWN was talking about how the private sector told the US and EU states that in order to make more bombs they'd need a 5 year contract, so with all this im wondering if this is what will make them bite that bullet

This morning’s proceedings in The Hague focus on genocidical talk in the Israeli public sphere. There are dozens of examples: ministers, Knesset members, influencers. Even the manipulative Netanyahu mentioned Amalek, the ancient people that the Bible singled out for eradication. Never mind that great rabbis have determined long ago that Amalek is obsolete, and the biblical verdict does not apply to any existing nation.

What stands on trial today is the ancient Jewish habit of speaking to each other as if no one else is listening. The Jewish habit of making extreme statements irresponsibly, unthoughtfully, without expecting any payback.

For so many centuries we have exercised a wild freedom of speech among ourselves, in our own languages, relying on our own argumentative balance mechanism: extremism and moderation may clash, and moderation usually triumphs. The House of Shammai is legitimate, but the House of Hillel, the moderates, usually wins.

Israeli verbal culture inherited this freedom. But Israel is also a liberal democracy and member of the global community. Most of the loudmouths crying Genocide and Amalek are not aware of the profound dissonance, the huge damage, the justified outrage. Some don’t care.

Only a small minority wants actual genocide in Gaza and are morally crippled enough to carry it through: the extreme national-religious right.

The fact that Netanyahu allowed these thugs into his government and echoes their discourse is an eternal blot on Jewish history.

Our disputative, wordy culture deserves to be celebrated, but it must denounce its dangerous outcrop of inciters to blind violence. Their Amalekite speech has become too viable to bear. Too doable.

No, Israel is not conducting genocide. But its ongoing rant about “flattening Gaza” is no longer a quaint side effect of our argumentative heritage.

It is a crime, a travesty and a harrowing blow to the best of Jewish traditions.

Why doesn't the US simply ship their genocide bombs via a different route? Surely that would be cheaper than starting a war with Yemen?

The entire stockpile of First World military power is getting depleted at an unsustainable level, and nobody is interested in avoiding more wars that will deplete it only further. This could be revolutionary in world affairs. It's gonna be a multipolar world real quick.

exactly, a lot of people were calling the west cucks for allowing ansar allah to blockade israel without bombing them so now they bombed them. My favorite statement is one where allegedly an official said it was to "reestablish deterrence" and to expect an increase in attacks from Yemen in response. Excellent deterrence A+. so yeah i think pretty much just caving to the "do something" crowd by "doing something" even though it'll only make it worse??? Very smart.

I think the blockade is working as intended and that Israel and its allies are starting to feel the pinch. There really isn't an other explanation that makes sense.

The thing is Houthis probably decentralized most of that material already (they have been fighting for years against the Saudis) and one strike isn't going to make a huge difference.

It boils down to the fact the US and Israel only know force and violence, and this is their only solution to the issue.

Israel only gets about 30% of its cargo through the Red Sea, at most. According to reports, the Houthi have done very little to target Israeli-related ships, instead focusing more on ships from other nation. Including a lot of countries that are fairly sympathetic to Gaza. So it is more like blowing up the railroads that primarily service your allies in order to stop a train that may be going to an enemy.

That's why it is obvious this is just regular piracy that they're putting a pretty ideological mask on.
