my oven has a sabbath mode that I guess just leaves it on at a low level all day? Because it says that you can reheat cooked foods on the sabbath but can’t push buttons or cook from raw. But hotdogs are precooked so ????

[Australian PM Referred to ICC]

read this and got all excited, immediately emailed the National Lawyers Guild to ask if there's anything like this afoot in the US and if there's anything a lay person like myself can do to speed it along

but i don't need to wait for the response, because i learned subsequently that we're not signatories to the ICC. and then i was also reminded that there's a statute (literally nicknamed "The Hague Invasion Act") that if any American or American ally is prosecuted in the Hague the US military is to invade and take them back into custody. no idea if we'd invoke it on Australia's behalf, if it even gets that far.

i guess it's at least nice that we deigned to recognize the ICJ as legitimate, even if we refuse that privilege to the ICC. but then again, as with everything in US politics, that's also a matter of convenience and opportunism, and our government will gladly extol the ICC when it benefits us

IIRC, its the act of creating a new circuit that violates the sabbath. As long as it was going to do it anyways, it doesn't count.

I’ve realized that a lot of the western (and they are always western or Israeli) liberals or “leftists” who claim to be pro-Palestine that are getting their panties in a wad about the Houthis or condemning them as cynical are most of the time not just psychos who resent having to pretend to even care about Gaza or Muslims (though some are) but the vast majority I think it’s cope because they see these people that already survived a genocide attempt using it weaponry going out and doing something, while westerners are forced to watch and be at least somewhat complicit. While our vastly more powerful militaries pretend they can’t do anything or they actively help israel.

It’s jsir envy and cope. There’s a reason no Palestinians are saying anything negative about the Houthis, because they don’t need to have to deal with the cognitive dissonance or pretend to be morally superior.

It’s jsir envy and cope. There’s a reason no Palestinians are saying anything negative about the Houthis, because they don’t need to have to deal with the cognitive dissonance or pretend to be morally superior.

A liberal has constructed their entire worldview around the idea that they are a "good person" purely because they follow the rules and aren't mean. The notion that upholding their moral convictions might require suffering, or sacrifice, or violence--and in particular from them and not just some distant Others who existed before the end of history--is fearsome, and uncomfortable.

An honest person would simply acknowledge that they aren't as courageous as the Houthis, understand that the guilt they feel is not misplaced, and maybe accept that truth as a seed to someday grow into something. Much easier, though, to just reassure yourself that you're doing not just the best you can but the best that can be done, and dismiss those willing to do more as either cynics or mentally ill.

it makes a lot of sense and it’s easy to figure out why.

coastal artillery has always been extremely dangerous for any navy. the hairiest part of the Nazi invasion of Norway was when they alerted Norwegian coastal guns and were almost blasted before they could land.

the cruise missile and ballistic missiles are like coastal guns that can be mounted anywhere and launch attacks from far inland. they’re also way more accurate than gunners. even while not being able to defeat the US navy outright, they’ve strategically nullified it. if the USN was operating at its peak power as a fully operational task fleet, it wouldn’t make a difference. so long as Ansar Allah has any missiles at all they can attack international shipping.

the issue is that i cant actually go help gaza. thats the part that kills me. if i can actually pack a bag, go to egypt, drive to rafah and volunteer 10000% i would, the issue is the egyptian fascist dog fucker coward dickless army would arrest me before i even make it to the border with palestine.

i gave a ton of my own money to aid groups, but its probably rotting at the rafah crossing because of that dog fucker fascist coward traitors in egypts army.

thats why, the only solution is to tie me to a missile to throw me at tel aviv, its the only way.

There's a storyline in the first Command and Conquer where Nod stages a GDI attack on a village with green screens that cause GDI to temporarily lose funding from the UN (the defunding might have been a ploy by GDI as a response to the staging to catch Nod off guard when they strike back despite ostensibly not having funding though) and boy that storyline sure hits different these days.
