Because the indian government came out and gave the default statement it always does about supporting the right of palestinians to have an independent state. The average hindu poaster supporting israel is a middle class adjacent dude with bad eyesight, with questionable physical fitness or a retired army officer whomst thinks we are too nice to kashmiris. Not exactly prime mercenary material. The former hasn't fired a gun outside of a videogame or maybe a revolver made in munger at best. The latter didn't go to COIN school and spent the bulk of their career doing patrolling in mountains and training for a conventional war.

you’re ignoring the chance they’re in Canada making “opportunities for new immigrants” (renting out a house to 13 people) and being entrepreneurs (having them work in a Tim Hortons for less than minimum wage)

Reminds me of Apartheid South Africa. Apartheid was initially established with major assistance from mining magnates who wanted to keep labour costs down.

After Apartheid was established, the National Party kept having internal power struggles between the people who wanted to
a) maximally exploit black people (pragmatists/enlighted liberals); or
b) maximally distance themselves from black people (true believers/ethnofascists).

In the end the true believers never won out, in part because those with money tended to back the pragmatists. It's hard to exploit black labour if they're not allowed in the country.

I wouldn't be surprised if a similar dynamic is at work here.

I was gonna say the New Jerseyites moving to open the worst pizza places known to man are probably not doing the real work required to keep society going, and another demographic there doesn’t really do “traditional schooling” required to do a lot of those needed jobs either

jerkposting (I guess), but I was surprised to see our usually pretty conservative Jamaican national paper (the Observer) calling for recalling our UN ambassador because he abstained from the ceasefire vote instead of voting with it. Also saw people back home marching for Palestine :)

Hey, all of you who've spent several days and several threads defending this fabulous act of "resistance", what part of it did you like most? The war rape? The slicing of children in half? The parading of bodies in Gaza to a cheering crowd?

If you think this is such a great thing for Gaza and the world, get off your keyboard, arrange a one-way trip to Israel, and sneak over to the Gaza strip and present yourself to Hamas as a hostage. If you somehow survive the ordeal and aren't raped, murdered, and paraded in Gaza, you might do something actually significant to improve the goals of the fabulous resistance.

Every single one of these "pro-Palestinians", as well as the long overdue tankies, should be banned from these loving forums. It's a pox upon it that they are let to be here so long, and it's a pox upon you and your team for probating and banning people presenting real historical information that's not comfortable for Westerners and inconvenient to the Palestinian narrative.

Israel badly underestimated the Arab states and so was the first navy in the world to lose a ship to missile attack, when one of their WW2 era British destroyers was hit by either and Egyptian or Syrian missile boat.

That's about all I know.

They also pulled a daring caper to steal boats from France in the 60's or something, the Cold War Diaspora liked stories like that. Plucky little Israel punching above their weight, being clever and so on.

not sure you can fully answer this question but is there any chance that NATO navies (aka the RCN) might be forced to do Israel’s dirty work for them?

personally i think that when a nation says theyre going to exterminate arabs and then proceed to do so, without consequences from both western and regional powers, it might even be psychologically positive to see the genocidal army get punished by guerilla forces, as an arab, since the rest of the world has given thumbs up to unlimited arab genocide. it might make you feel as though your people still have hope in a world trying to eliminate them

Anecdotally I've found this to be the case as well, I've never personally spoken to anyone who has had anything but sympathy for Gaza and revulsion for Israel's actions. Friends, family, colleagues, young, old. A lot of people I frankly wouldn't expect at all. A lot of people whose other political opinions are total garbage.

The media, though, that is in absolute lockstep behind Israel, and it is infuriating to the point of making me feel crazy. I can't be in the same room when the 'news' is on the radio or TV.

It really does bring to mind that Disco quote about how the bourgeoisie aren't human. They take the mask off just long enough to kill everything good and courageous and noble in this world.

I think that was the idea, but they wanted the ability to abort at any stage of flight due to some requirement about humanitarian whatever, Canada's international image, but when a missile gets moving at a brisk enough clip to create plasma, radio control becomes impossible. So they didn't advance beyond that.

They didn't have the tech to communicate to a missile moving at 900 m/s before it hit what it hit, and they probably still don't

How can you have hypersonic projectiles in space when there's no sound in space

You'll need to use speed relative to the ground remembering the earth is curved. You wouldn't have the exact speed but rough enough distance. Ballistics and fluid dynamics is still a thing we don't really fully understand. But I'm glad the west is spending all their money researching chatbots instead
