Read the fourth, most recent IPCC report - it’s essentially a metastudy synthesising a lot of hard science.

The picture is grim.

Sorry you don’t like their tone but they’re right.

Only if you’re ethically bankrupt, or a liberal.

There it is. The thinly veiled Islamophobia.

I doubt that’s going to work in the Hague.

Neither were the churches. Or the hospitals. Or the UN facilities. Or the Schools. Or the desalination plant. Or the tents filled with refugees. Or the graves of Australian soldiers. Or Palestinian civilians. Or the greenhouses.

Do you understand?

Oh mate - that just would make them authoritarians. They’re already fascist.

Does someone have to spell out to you what an insurgency is? Or what asymmetric fighting is?

Is the IOF really so incompetent it has no access to the last 40 years of American imperialist strategy? Or can we drop the facade of logic and say this is about causing as much collateral damage/trauma as possible soas to cleanse Palestine of Palestinians.

The world knows a frontier war when we see one.

Israel is a violent settler apartheid. No.

Don’t you have a flag to wave over a razed hospital somewhere?

Exactly. The only language violence respects or listens to is violence.

It’s the tolerance paradox - and why it’s a death sentence to tolerate groups or people who won’t reciprocate tolerance.

Doesn’t mean they should get away with it.

Yeah, America really needs to get its shit together and shrug of corporate capture.

I mean, it’s far right attacks on left-leaning politicians. I can see where they’re coming from - it’s reminiscent of the brown shirts.

Agreed. This was a copout.

They’re a last-ditch liberation movement with four discreet wings of praxis, dude. Moreover, the Palestinian Authority is collaborationist with occupying forces - this isn’t about manufacturing an endless war, though I’m sure Lockheed Martin and Elbit shareholders would love that - this is about reclaiming tangible avenues for political agency that were either captured or outright denied, violently, by ‘Israel’.

You disagree, sure, but you don’t seem to understand the inhuman scale, decades of systemic violence, a population has to endure to make violence the only mutually understood language left.

Also - to your point - it doesn’t help how many peaceful community leaders, politicians and organizers have been assassinated by the IOF and settlers in the last 75 years. Democracy, as presented by the PA, was never earnest or effectual in occupied Palestine - it was always a membrane of indigenous skin stretched over the occupiers demands.

It’s because the port is a forward operating base and entrenches the annexation of Northern Gaza. They built a road splitting Gaza into two and are shooting anyone who approaches it. Add to that the US wants warships present to defend the oilfields it’s just been liscenced by the occupation forces.

This is, and always was, about money and ethnic cleansing. Fuck israel, free Palestine.

An anonymous source inside the USGov saying “oh, yeah, we’re totally still in control - the middle east is still materially in our sphere of influence”?

Come on, of cause they’re going to say that - especially through the proxy of anonymity. They have reporters they own. It’s a no risk play to project power - only that it waves more red flags than a sailor doing semaphores.

They also inked deals for gas/oil exporting rights to the Gazan coast.

This is exactly why armed resistance is both inevitable and entirely justified. The UN agrees - of whom Israel explicitly refuses to allow record the conflict. Israel kills the record-keepers and then gaslights away the truth.

Fascism rides again under the colors blue and white.
