Gaza - conflict, war, land, water rights, bad colonional legacies...
Malcador replied to BruceVC's topic in Way Off-Topic
Avoids enraging their people further. If you're mad about Gaza, having the US president freshing from fluffing Bibi visit isn't going to enhance your calm. Besides any real work is done by lower level people, I think, before hand. But at least some aid will get in, conditional on Hamas not seizing it. Which will be observed and proven by Israel or the US I suppose. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/19/gaza-aid-rafah-crossing-joe-biden-israel-egypt-agreement -

US isn't really a fair mediator being a solid ally to Israel, though. And makes sense, given the rage that explosion provoked -

Israel needs to hire Ukrainians on how to run the info war. -

Maybe, people are on media for reporting "Hamas claims.." as if that doesn't already make people skeptical. I guess they should have said "Explosion in Gaza.." just to be extra clear, as everyone are morons. Given the IAF working over Gaza, and they did hit the same hospital on Oct 14, people suspecting an Israeli strike weren't out to lunch as well. Speaking of media my mom likes watching MSNBC, coverage was having a good wank over Biden's visit, was pretty funny. Although I guess not really sure what the point of it was, Blinken already fluffed up Israel plenty. -

You find it difficult to believe Hamas would want to blame Israel immediately for a lot of civilians dying ? -
Given that his memories are probably BS from what Alt says, I'm not sure Johnny really did all that much.

Feel it was a fallen rocket, either short or intercepted. It is funny to see calls for cool heads and waiting to see in this case, though. Death toll of 300 or so do seem plausible, people trying to put an upper limit on it from calculation but I think that's just this OSINT fetish for doing things by math. But regardless true or not, raised temperature everywhere. -

Another carrier group, Eisenhower's, going to support Israel. Guess Hezbollah rates that high. -

https://news.yahoo.com/israeli-president-says-no-innocent-154330724.html?guccounter=1 “It is an entire nation out there that is responsible,” Herzog said at a press conference on Friday. “It is not true this rhetoric about civilians not being aware, not involved. It’s absolutely not true. They could have risen up. They could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup d’etat.” Not a very productive thing to say in the current climate. -
Did the new ending, was worth it to tell Johnny off.

Best of luck Shady. One of my uncles is probably going to die soon. That's 3 of my mom's siblings in as many years if so. -

Well IDF using WP sooner than I had thought. Sort of funny to see people fainting about the Russians using it in Avdiivka (the RF really likes incendiaries) -
