A IDF soldier was recently arrested for raping female palestinian prisoners There was an Israeli protest … in support of the accused.

But then Mists of Pandaria happened…

Are we talking about those stupid “Biden evil” political cartoons that popped up recently? It looked like your standard newspaper editorial style cartoon, but was repeating some anti-Biden propaganda in a “first they came for the…” rant.

Can’t find them now, must have been nuked/hidden. Was going to debunk, but would of taken 3 paragraphs like the OP said.

I am sure there is some place America has been blockading for decades and interfering in elections that I could find to make a comparison, but my main point still stands that “completely out of the blue attacks” rarely are that.

I was comparing it to what Israel did to Gaza pre-Oct 6th. Denying resources to a country that bombed israeli citizens and was run by war-criminals? Justified. Being surprised and calling it “unprovoked” when they strike back? Unjustified.

Polls probably showed it would hurt them, and they waited until they have 5 years of uninterrupted power to take action that could hurt them elecorally.

Do you remember what the British PM did in 2019?

Americans famously signed the first bombs dropped on Japan after peral harbor - and attached the trinkets that were brought by the Japanese peace negotiatiors.

Of course, the mear existence of the negotiators show that America was taking hostile action aganst japan prior to Pearl Harbor.

Knowing you have HIV decreases transmission by 90%. Giving antivirals decreases transmission by 99%. Back in the early 2000 I saw a paper saying we could make HIV tests for 10 cents a person if we wanted to produce enough for every person on the planet (0.1810^9= $800 million). That was something that could have been done back then. $40 a vaccine would be a price tag of $320 billion

It just takes some time.

Elephant!

A little bit of after rhyme

Elephant! Elephant!

It will be alright.

Elephant. Elephant. Even if it lasts all night.

Alright!

Got to protect those Mako reactors!

“The ceasefire must allow us to keep firing”

Reminds me of an orville quote I can’t find now - something about firing on all the innocent families of a colony, and the navigator chimes in “yes, and all the single people as well!”

There was an anti-genocide independent running against Starmer (the new PM) and they came in second. Image if they had won: biggest Labor majority in generations, you are all set to become PM and you loose your seat because you were vague about whether you support or oppose killing innocent women and children.

Israeli court rules ultra-Orthodox men must be drafted for military service … right before they invade Lebanon.

How many years would his prison sentence have been if he was extradided the year he fled to the embassy? I feel like he would have been out by now. Wasn’t he leaking early Iraq war corruption stuff? That was 20 years ago.

Better than South Korea’s 69 hour work week

Many different u.s. interventions over the years.

Anyone know if who is second in command (or third if second in command is the defense minister?). Iran isn’t one of those countries that has like 5 VPs, right?

You haven’t seen all the hospice brochures? You don’t even have to imagine - it’s like the P.C. version of assisted suicide for old people.

I will never see “Karen conflict” as a joke again.
