Didn’t they state that their next game would not be a totk sequel?
I was referring to the comparative death tolls over the course of Israel’s decades long
alright I’m going to ignore the rest of your antisemitic bullshit and just focus on the ratio you picked, probably also out of made-up numbers (and I doubt you included all the Israeli soldiers killed in wars started by surrounding Muslim nations pretending to act on Palestinians’ behalf), to frame the issue without ignoring what actually happened.
Over the past few decades, the Palestinians have started every damn war they could against Israel, including two intifadas, suicide bombings, rockets aimed vaguely at civilians (historically, roughly 1/3-1/4 of the rockets fired from Gaza since 2001 landed in Gaza). Hamas has built plenty of tunnels in Gaza, but no workers, because it prefers to see its civilians die because it makes the statistics more gruesome and keeps their control of the gaza strip going.
Meanwhile, Israelis invest billions into not only technology like the Iron Dome to defend Israeli civilians, but also in warning technology like roof knocking tech, medical tech that it used to save Palestinian lives, including that of Yahya Sinwar, and… Oh yeah, remember the thousands of greenhouses they left in Gaza in 2005 when they unilaterally withdrew? Gee, what ever happened to those?
So Palestinians:
It doesn’t matter what Hamas agrees to or doesn’t,
So you don’t want a ceasefire, you want Israel to stop unilaterally and then whatever happens to it next is fine by you, right?
Don’t call it a ceasefire if you don’t know what a ceasefire exist.
up to this point the ratio of Palestinians killed to Israelis has been 25:1.
Really? 1200 Israelis murdered on October 7th, you’re really telling me that over 30,000 Palestinians have been killed?
You wanna maybe try that again?
what you quoted only makes the Hamas facility the target. Civilians inside that hospital are not valid targets.
Right. So Israel targets the Hamas facility. Sometimes, civilians in the hospital die as a result of attacks targeting the Hamas facility and Hamas individuals. This is what is commonly known as “collateral damage.” It is a tragedy that should be minimized.
Glad we’re in agreement.
What is more collaborative:
“They made an agreement where some Jews were allowed to flee the Holocaust”
or
fleeing versus encouraging and attempting to extend the holocaust, who were the real Nazi collaborators?
They have bombed a neonatal unit!
Source for this?
a one-sided ceasefire, or a two-sided ceasefire? Would you expect Hamas to keep its end of a ceasefire agreement?
ahh yes. Because the Israeli army has literally no options between “relentless bombing of Gaza, denying access to food, water and medicine,
the IDF turned off its supply of 7% of gazan water for a few days, and is still getting shit for it. Hamas never bothered to maintain the power plant or desalination plant, stole fuel from the power plant that could have been used to keep running the hospitals and desalination plant, and openly dug up water pipes to fashion into rockets. They didn’t even hide that, they were proud of that.
sniping civillians trying to flee according to your demand on the safe routes you designated
You know that bridge was Hamas snipers, right? Israel didn’t have a real presence in that area yet, the closest thing they had was a ship that did not fire small bullets. People initially blamed all the bullet-ridden bloody bodies on the bridge on an Israeli airstrike, and then realized that there was no sign of any explosion anywhere on the bridge, and had to change their story. =/
and bombing ambulances trying to move patients in the same way”
Hamas said that there were no patients in those ambulances, but the IDF had intelligence that there were, in fact, terrorists in them. This is in keeping with a long-standing pattern going back a good 20 years, Hamas loves shuttling terrorists around in ambulances.
Israel could have led an infantry assault into Gaza withou pounding everything first. That would have meant higher casualties though and here shows the true nature of Israels government and army.
I love how, now, people are saying “they should have invaded by land!” when, before the ground invasion began, everybody was protesting the concept of a land invasion and surrounding nations had threatened to declare war if Israel invaded.
They do not care for any palestinian life. So far for every Israeli soldier that got killed, more than 200 palestinian civillians were killed.
You know how I know you made that number up? Nobody anywhere has published any number of palestinian civilians that were killed in this war.
In world war 2 the axis powers killed about 6 civillians for every axis soldier and the allies killed about 1 civillian for every 4 ally soldiers. So the war that was about total destruction and genocide still had more than a magnitude less civillians killed relative to combatants killed.
Please, feel free to cite Hamas statistics here, I’d love to see if they’ve finally claimed a number of civilians vs combatants.
It is. When your enemy is embedded in hospitals and mosques and everywhere else civilians try to go for safety, it gets hard. But I’m sure your alternative is just for Israel to just agree to a one-sided ceasefire and wait for Hamas to shore up its weapons, move the hostages, and repeat its 10/7 attack, huh?
Targeting civilians is a war crime. Targeting enemy combatants while trying to evacuate civilians, trying to warn civilians so desperately that you warn the enemy combatants too, and killing civilians in attacks that target legitimate military targets and reflect a sufficient level of care to minimize risk to human life, is not a war crime, that’s the definition of “collateral damage.”
There’s no double standard there, that’s the whole issue.
They see it as being less western, and therefore superior.
You’re not even necessarily a communist. I don’t call myself a communist, but yeah, there are problems with capitalism, that’s not a weird thing to say.
Tankies are generally not just anybody with communist perspectives, but a. certain extreme. A tankie is the type of person who will essentially argue that capitalism and western society are the roots of all evil, and deflect from any criticism of Russia, China, Iran, etc. by attacking the US instead of actually addressing the criticism.
Nobody gives a fuck about Truth Social. Mastodon / ActivityPub is kind of a “rip-off,” and so was Diaspora, and so are a dozen other similar services, but there’s nothing Twitter could ever have done about them, legally. Twitter did, at one point, block Mastodon links, or deprioritize profiles with mastodon links. That’s some bullshit, obviously.
The second point only works once they meaningfully federate and stay meaningfully federated.
But more importantly:
Edit: Oh, Twitter is accusing Facebook of misappropriating trade secrets. It’s theoretically possible that one or two laid off twitter employees reused some trade secret information, but… I feel like this is a fishing expedition, Twitter doesn’t actually have any suspicion that Facebook did that, they just wanna be dicks about it.
I pre-ordered the game.
Then, very quickly, the full game + all DLC was available for $20. And I was annoyed, because the DLC itself barely went on sale at all. I sure as shit am not about to pay more for it, after overpaying in the first place. So what do I get? Zero DLC. Nice.
I learned my lesson. I’m waiting for the sale on part 2. And on this new prince of persia game.
