Glad to know I'm not the only one.

Hopefully the investigation moves quicker than the NS one.

I suppose I have a little more faith in the IDF command and training even for the reservists and conscrjpts. Even if they want to be Dayan's mad dog, war crimes isn't really in Israel's long term interest. Think some are just being wishful for Palestinians to die en masse.

Most of it I've seen lately is justifying the IDF "taking the gloves off". Not sure why everyone seems to assume the IDF are going to turn into some psycho killers with their response. But 'tis a poisoned well I am drinking from anyway, is a subreddit Fair enough, didn't think you had meant legal. As you say the ICC's not going to try to touch them. Mossad would probably off a couple of ICC people if they did

Easy - just say it's Hamas fault. Either as they were using human shields or they started the conflict in the first place. I like the last one, apparently some munitions are just forces of nature. At least that's a bit better than the people that say they don't condone or excuse things but "understand" them.

And apparently Syria has shelled Israel https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2023/10/10/israel-hamas-war-live-appeals-for-safe-corridor-gaza-toll-goes-past-700?update=2399430

Isn't much of an order when it's applied sometimes and supposed champions break it and it's all good largely. Just is funny to see normal people speak of it, really.

Well yes that was my point, consistency is the thing. Already see people becoming near genocidal in response to this, which is amusing (as its impotent). Doubt the IDF is going to turn Gaza into Homs or something regardless.

Lovely language. Will be fun to see people adjust their spines accordingly when it's a cool kid doing wicked things.

That price hike is a bit nuts. Shame I didn't go to one back in '08 or so, though

Reminds me of a funny post way back on the exchange rate for American lives vs Iraqis.

Israel's part of the rules based order, so no need for that.

Where to, I wonder. Will be interesting to see how these airstrikes get covered, heh.

Assuming Russia thinks they can attack a nuclear armed state, for some reason. Never understood why people buy this from Ukraine. Not like NATO is going to snap into slumber even if Ukraine loses somehow

Tried the other endings, have to say I didn't enjoy the quest running around that bunker, the part where you have to break the firewalls was annoying with the killer robot popping up. Good job making the trans-Blackwall AIs creepy though. The Hansen fight is also a bitch, luckily he stood in a doorway and let me plink him to death.

Well Netanyahu must be glad, people will get off his back for a bit

Finished the DLC, I guess I shouldn't have been surprised to get sold out. But I guess I will try the new ending, assuming I didn't lock myself out, at least.

As long as France, Canada and the US take all the people.

Or he could have meant that as in he thinks the offensive wasn't going to succeed in the first place. Probably was some political pressure to get on with it and it is a test of sorts for further aid, but I don't think they'd just throw the dice

Releasing a trailer for the offensive was also a great idea, hah

I believe they've dialed it back to reaching Tokmak, so there's that.

Seems to be a strategic thing. D4 made a lot of money. The new changes look positive, although scratch my head as to why they do it late, heh. Steam reviews on D4 will just remind me why I don't bother with them
