Hi :)
Go fuck yourself.
Hi :)
Go fuck yourself.
Part of me thinks, we’ll see Hilary2.0 unfolding in 2024. He should have picked Newsom and stepped down.
“Bring him home”
This is actually a great case of using generative ML for good.
Context: The corrupt militarily backed current government in Pakistan has 300 some ought political motivated “corruption” cases against and has him locked up while he’s been clearing case after case for not being guilty. The military is enforcing a media ban on him to curb his influence while he’s got massive popular support. This is his party retaliating because they really have no platform to get their word out.
Not defending Biden because he deserves all the shit he needs to get for his stance on this issue, but this is Times of Israel afterall. Almost all Israeli news outfits have a habit of posturing as if all of America’s political leadership is behind them no questions asked, while the truth isn’t so cut and dry.
Bernie for example has been quoted by Haaretz and TOI where he is calling for Israel’s right to “defend itself”, while Bernie’s stance on Israeli support is more nuanced and comes with a bunch of strings and caveats. He’s all called out Netyanhu’s government as a terrorist/extremist regime.
Israeli media is absolute dogshit for neutrality and is straight up propaganda. Best stay away from it and take it with a grain of salt.
The West can jerk itself off at the thought of being “civilized” as much as it wants, but it never was “civilized”. Imperialism has always been barbaric and we’re seeing another example of it in Palestine.
He’s right.
He’s going to say that slave labor is absolutely essential to economic development next…
What a fucking moron.
Lol oh jesus. I’m not going to bother entertaining you any further because:
You’re the one that’s made up their mind about painting me as somebody that isn’t aware how war crimes investigations work even though you’ve repeatedly failed to prove whatever you’re trying to prove.
You’ve also failed to address criticism I’ve made about your position by answers such as “that’s just not how it works” or “It will happen when it happens” while failing to provide any evidence backing those claims.
You’re deflecting and jumping point to point just to prove you’re correct.
Lastly, you’re talking out of your ass when you clearly have no have idea how any of this will pan out.
Later.
Setting up an investigation over something does not mean it will happen, especially when the area is under siege and the risk of evidence disappearing increases with each bomb dropped. I’m not sure what you’re trying to get at here? Is it the just that they’ve set up an initiative to investigate all war crimes? Cool, again, for the third time, when is that going to happen?
We’re going in circles because you aren’t acknowledging the deplorable conditions, lack of access and the eventual removal/destruction of evidence that could have helped shed light and convict both sides. But, for some reason, you’re trying to convince of something that is either irrelevant or useless.
I’m not upset, but I’m poking at the lip service and inaction of holding people accountable, which typically becomes the case when the West’s interests are at stake.
Right? All this shitting on Turkey for not cutting ties with Hamas but nobody bats a fucking eye at the US sending fucking bunker busters to Israel so that they can bomb schools and hospitals.
And then they wonder why the likes of Hamas exist like some moronic existential question of liberty and life. Jfc.
Turkey shouldn’t cozy up to Hamas, US shouldn’t cozy up to Israel. Enough.
That’s convenient isn’t it? Lay seige, let nobody in and then “wait” for a war crimes investigation instead of creating channels for an independent investigation when everybody in the world was asking for one, see numerous hospital and school bombings from example. This is the same Israel that didn’t let aid into Gaza, if you have trouble recalling how generous and compliant they are.
Ironically, war crimes investigation in an active war zone is a thing.
Feels like a slap on the wrist for, you know, stealing actual fucking land violently.
It’s something, but there’s so much much much more that can be done.
We’re in 2023. I assume you aren’t aware of how a decade old news isn’t relevant to the discussion anymore.
You seem to indicate it will happen. I’m asking when?
Asking for accountability when war crimes and a genocide is being overlooked isn’t “whataboutism”. Maybe you’d know that if you knew what the term actually meant.
Investigation into Israeli war crimes when?
Investigation into on-going occupier (err “settler”) violence when?
Investigation into 6k dead Palestinian children when?
Let’s investigate all sides.
Right…. “massive bias” especially when they have reporters on the ground, risking their lives and other “news” agency have been drinking their updates from the IDF/Israeli firehose.
Al Jazeera also had its reporter shot by Israel (big surprise) last year for covering the Al Aqsa raids. They have also covered reporters from other news agencies getting shot by Israel in this genocide… err “war”. They are calling out Israel’s actions for what they are and this whole “massive bias because Qatari” is just straight up bullshit.
Yes, they are run by Qatar, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t won accolades in top tier neutral reporting. I’m defending them because we need that style of reporting more and less of what the likes of WSJ have become.
Read my comment again. I’m not making excuses and Saddam didn’t need to exist beyond the moment in time the first time he took a human life.
The point which you missed was that we have the ability to take out tyrants without having to cause 30k civilian casualties and decimate towns/cities. We didn’t do that, we went blood thirsty and inflicted so much damage on a sovereign nation and its citizens that it created a generation of Iraqis and people in the broader region that hates the US.
We took out OBL and have toppled numerous regimes without using excessive force.
This whole notion of us taking out Saddam because of us being some benevolent nation for good is complete bullshit. We went in there for oil and because Saddam didn’t let us have it, so we made it a point to take him out by any means necessary, using the WMDs cover-up.
The US has a history of getting cozy with dictators and letting them kill and pillage their own people as long as it serves our interest.
The Iraq “war” was a massive fuck up and mistake. Nobody should be decorated for it.
Oh? Is that right? I see a government (Israel) slaughtering 10k civilians right now. Where is that sense of moral duty? Why don’t we go in there and send a peace keeping force?
We did Iraqis a favor by slaughtering 30k of their civilians did we? How many did Saddam kill before us? Didn’t we take out OBL by not slaughtering people in Pakistan?
Foh.
Lol you’re getting downvoted for being right.
People serving in Iraq acting like they served in WWII. Mother fuckers killed and tortured civilians, destroyed towns and claimed “victory” against people who were defending their homelands.
We invaded and occupied a sovereign nation in the name of “WMDs” which we found none of and acting like we did god’s work over here. All they did was help create more animosity against Americans. Good fucking job.
