Got a call at 5 in the morning I'm going to reserve duty. I don't expect to be in any danger zones but if I stop commenting then know I died for glorious nation of Israel. Also it already puts me at a higher position than most internet tough guys.
Damn son, stay safe out there.
Makes sense as minus the end of the British empire and ghandis propaganda India as a nation has had bloody borders with the Islamic world
India was occupied by muslim invaders for centuries who basically tore down their civilization and subjugated the native hindu population, not unlike christians in the balkans. All indian muslims and pakistanis are simply hindus that converted to islam so its no wonder they're seen as traitors.
While the british occupation is a more recent affair within living memory the fact is the muslim occupation was far worse.
Well straya has an important number of lebanese refugees going all the way back to the 80's. I remember reading that the muslim lebanese down under were far more violent/crime-prone than the christian lebanese, but then again "christian bad" so that's that...
not mati, just disgusted by you, specifically.
What's to be disgusted about? that I don't believe a woman being kidnapped and forcibly raped by men is equal to the "everything is rape" we see in the west? are you seriously so dense that you would consider these to be analogous situations?
The reasons for which aren't relevant to this thread
So you're just seething for no reason, femcel.
I don't personally understand what Hamas expects to happen, here.
They don't have any real patrons to come to their aid
AFAIK the only ones still bankrolling the shitshow that is the palestinian resistance is iran, so given recent announcements odds are they got the order from tehran to attack or else they would cut the gibs too.
And on the flip, so many cuckcervatives are taking shocking and odd pro Israeli stances.
What flip? neocons have been israeli fanboys for nearly 40 years now.
However younger right-wingers are not.
Footage of the recent missile barrage towards Israel
View attachment 5396015
Very rapid rate of fire from the Hamas ordinance systems. Seems to fire off something like 15-20 projectiles in 7-10 seconds.
Interesting, are these rockets still DIY made with pipes? or they somehow got a more standardized production going? any analysis of the remains? are these still dumb rockets or they have managed to put some sort of guidance on them?.
liquidating Gaza likely won't be enough if Hezbollah and the Iranian clerics decide to go full retard
Literally carpet-bombing gaza to nothing would be a major international disaster for israel, they will most likely keep doing precision bombing which at least gives them the excuse of not being indiscriminately bombing everyone, even if they raze half the strip to the ground.
As for attacking iran, no way, why? because russia is getting their drones from there now. But I fully expect israel to bomb southern lebanon to hit hezbollah, they practically have to since they might try pulling a similar invasion from the north.
Oh, by the way.
UN talks have just ended.
No resolution was reached. I bet you are all shocked, fellas.
They are probably picking straws to see who gets to send blue helmets who will get shot at by both sides.
Palestine, uniquely, seems to throw shit around and expect someone else to swoop in and protect them from blowback.
From my perspective palestinians were at the end of the rope, settlements keep moving forward, the boicot movement failed, nobody in the israeli government really has the will let alone the power to try again at a peace accord.
We're likely seeing the last palestinian offensive until they get completely absorbed by israel.
Every other Muslim entity in the region has played with a certain degree of cynical politics, brinksmanship, and realpolitik in order to extract leverage from various players in the region.
Fun fact: no muslim countries have given citizenship to palestinians, not even what you could call a greencard. You got palestinians who have 3-4 generations born in lebanon/syria/jordan/iraq and they are still legally refugees outside the rest of society.
That's islamic solidarity for you. Then again when jordan let palestinians settle there they decided to take over a chunk of the country and say it was theirs so no wonder other arabs are wary of palestinian refugees.
And it's been pointed out many times how social media contributes to black-and-white thinking and a lack of empathy.
I remember when they said the internet would bring a new level of understanding among nations.
I guess those were better times...
This is called 'context collapse', it's an effect that's been studied for about a decade.
WW2 newsreels got pretty wild (0:45):
Bodies all over the place at 2:00:
You had this on life magazine:
