holy poo poo I assumed the quote

“Israel has been building nuclear weapons for 30 years. The Jews understand what passive and powerless acceptance of doom has meant for them in the past, and they have ensured against it. Masada was not an example to follow—it hurt the Romans not a whit, but Samson in Gaza? What would serve the Jew-hating world better in repayment for thousands of years of massacres but a Nuclear Winter. Or invite all those tut-tutting European statesmen and peace activists to join us in the ovens? For the first time in history, a people facing extermination while the world either cackles or looks away—unlike the Armenians, Tibetans, World War II European Jews or Rwandans—have the power to destroy the world. The ultimate justice?”


in the wiki article about the Samson option was ironic but no it’s some psycho LSU communications professor that’s just that mad that the media is too pro Palestinian in 2002

Israel is a very strange case of a nuclear weapons state. It's unusually small, relatively flat compared to the only other nuclear weapons state even approaching its size, and has a significant chunk of its population that is about one step of radicalization from wanting to act out their own special version of the turner diaries, if they aren't already there. Israel having nukes is sort of like you having a loaded gun in your house with a roommate you know for a fact is a paranoid schizophrenic.

yeah a lot of the people responsible for perpetrating the Holocaust were either regular army troops or not even actually soldiers at all - a shitload of them were regular-rear end civilian police officers from the Order Police who were organized into death squads and sent out to the frontier to clear land of Jews, Poles, and the like for future settlement. they were, being cops, generally broadly supportive of fascism and also giant racists who hated Jewish people and Roma and Slavs, but they were also mostly boring normal middle-class men of no strong political convictions who had no particular enthusiasm for the Nazi ideological vision. they still did it, mind you, and the Holocaust could not have happened without their willing and active participation, but it did an absolute number on their psyches, and there were shitloads of suicides, especially among the older men

the Order Police death squads were even smart enough to include a safety valve, which is that men could and did opt out of participation in the kill teams, and such men would be reassigned to other duties where they did not have to directly participate in the killing, such as directing traffic to the shooting sites or standing guard outside, so that men who were losing the stomach for it could still do their part in carrying out the genocide without having to personally dirty their hands anymore, but that didn't actually help very much

sometimes i think of this quote form V

out of the estimated 80 000 Hereros living in the territory in 1904, an official German census taken seven years later set the Herero population at only 15 130, this being a decrease of 64 870. Similarly the Hottentots were reduced by 10 000, the Berg-Damaras by 17 000. Allowing for natural causes during those unnatural years, von Trotha, who stayed for only one of them, is reckoned to have done away with about 60 000 people. This is only 1 per cent of six million, but still pretty good.

US envoy denies ties with Israel have changed: Only ‘1 set of munitions’ held back
By TOI STAFF
Today, 7:00 am

US Ambassador to Israel Jack Lew insisted Sunday evening that “fundamentally, nothing has changed in the basic relationship” between Israel and the US — despite the decision last week by US President Joe Biden’s administration to delay a shipment of high-payload bombs to Israel, and Biden’s declaration that he would not supply offensive weapons to Israel for a major IDF offensive affecting population centers in southern Gaza’s Rafah.

Noting that military aid from Washington to Jerusalem has increased since war erupted in Gaza after Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, Lew stressed in a Channel 12 interview that only “one set of munitions” had been held back, and that “everything else keeps flowing.”

The two sides “need to keep talking through” issues that relate to the use of “large diameter bombs, heavy bombs, particularly when there’s the possibility of them being used in densely populated urban areas,” he said.

US Ambassador to Israel Jack Lew insisted Sunday evening that “fundamentally, nothing has changed in the basic relationship” between Israel and the US — despite the decision last week by US President Joe Biden’s administration to delay a shipment of high-payload bombs to Israel, and Biden’s declaration that he would not supply offensive weapons to Israel for a major IDF offensive affecting population centers in southern Gaza’s Rafah.

Noting that military aid from Washington to Jerusalem has increased since war erupted in Gaza after Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, Lew stressed in a Channel 12 interview that only “one set of munitions” had been held back, and that “everything else keeps flowing.”

The two sides “need to keep talking through” issues that relate to the use of “large diameter bombs, heavy bombs, particularly when there’s the possibility of them being used in densely populated urban areas,” he said.

“But I think it’s a mistake to think that anything has fundamentally changed in the relationship,” he repeated.

Asked about Biden’s stated intention not to supply offensive weapons to Israel “if they go [into] these population centers,” Lew replied: “What the president said is that he doesn’t think it is a good idea to have a massive ground campaign in a heavily populated area. But he specifically said that 2,000-pound (900-kilogram) bombs shouldn’t be used in that setting.”

Lew noted, however, that Biden has made clear that Israel, thus far, has not engaged in the kind of major ground operation in Rafah that the US opposes. To date, the Rafah operation has not “crossed over into the area where our disagreements lie. I’m hoping we don’t end up with real disagreements.”...


... Addressing criticism, including from within the Democratic Party, that Biden’s withholding of arms is pandering to the far-left and helping Israel’s enemies, Lew noted that the administration had just endorsed continued military aid. It did so, it said on Friday, despite concerns that some US weapons may have been used in instances inconsistent with international humanitarian law.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken concluded “that there would be no interruption in US aid for Israel,” said Lew. “That’s of huge consequence. There’s a lot of people criticizing that decision. I think it was the right decision,” he added, and advised: “You look at that in the context of one shipment of heavy bombs being delayed. You have to look at it in broader context.”


The denial of one weapons shipment was all PR management. They have two faces.

occasionally I think about how apartheid South Africa is the only country in history to have conducted its own nuclear program from start to finish, successfully constructed its own nuclear weapons, and then voluntarily disarmed, going from a nuclear-armed state to a non-nuclear-armed state

the reason they did this is because apartheid was ending and they were too racist to contemplate giving black people the Bomb

I know their only move is to lie but it was bizarre going and checking what happened after I saw reactionary news sources crowing about them halving the numbers. The idea that the deaths have overwhelmingly been men is laughable after seeing a single image of the destruction they've wrought.

his comes after months of accusations for leading statisticians that the numbers produced by the Gazan authorities cannot possibly be accurate.

Washington Institute for Near East Policy released a report in January that showed major discrepancies in the fatality reports. They concluded such discrepancies were most likely caused by manipulation.

Professor Abraham Wyner also told Tablet Magazine that the rate of deaths was very unnatural and climbed far too regularly.

He claimed that in war, deaths should be irregular as the intensity of war is irregular, but that the death numbers climbed by 270 plus/minus 15%, which he says is statistically impossible.
