  1. The 14K number of Hamas was the claimed about killed or injured You would need to compare it to the civilians killed or injured, not just killed
  2. That isn’t the ratio because you’re comparing the claimed amount of Hamas killed and injured to total Gazans killed
  3. The most recent claim by the IDF is 14,000 Hamas have been killed or wounded https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-07-16/ty-article/.premium/idf-killed-half-of-hamas-military-leadership-14-000-operatives-killed-or-wounded/00000190-bc9c-db47-abb0-befd45310000 The Gaza health ministry most recent report is 38,794 people have been killed and 89,364 wounded that’s a ratio of 1 to 9
  4. This US veteran said his analysis is Israel is doing less to avoid harming civilians than US operations
  5. Include an emoji, some people on the forum can take it seriously if it isn’t clearly a joke.
  6. Jamaal Bowman got 10x the support on social media then his primary opponent but still lost by a good chunk of votes. Social media isn’t a accurate representation.
  7. This is horrible advice, every woman will be weirded out by you hiding your face
  8. Those numbers are useless, it highly depends on where, who, and how you approach.
  9. I literally posted a video taken from a reporter in Gaza and a article from a humans rights group. You aren’t disproving anything I post, you just posted irrelevant articles about fake content. Yes some content is fake, that doesn’t mean what I post is. Last time you accused me of BS it was over a passage from one of the most famous Israeli historians book. in developing events there is fake information, but that doesn’t mean I’m lying if I post it, if it’s fake point it out to me. You said you are ok with CNN and NYT as sources so what about this? https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/10/middleeast/israel-sde-teiman-detention-whistleblowers-intl-cmd/index.html https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/06/world/middleeast/israel-gaza-detention-base.html
  10. Interesting: former US military and former CIA discuss the assassination
  11. they can still get small donations and the government can provide some funding the issue is currently very wealthy can dump millions which gives their choices a unfair advantage
  12. It’s from here https://euromedmonitor.org/en/article/6322/Gaza:-Israeli-army-storms-UNRWA-schools-and-kills-more-civilians-in-Jabalia maybe there is more to it, it’s all a developing story. But I wouldn’t be surprised as there have been many reports of Israel using torture
  13. There are many simple ways to do this that most Americans support - ban money from politics - automatic funding, ballot access and debate access for third parties - open primaries - rank choice voting The problem is the politicians in charge are incentivized to block these, leaving Americans in a catch 22 of change, they want to change the system, but they need the system to change itself, and the system doesn’t want to

  16. Is he really though? Put aside his media antics and toxic behavior. Is he actually behaving policy wise any different than the average republican? We almost started a war with Iran when he assassinated their general, but we now know many top officials in the us and Israel were pushing him to do it, he actually resisted initially. Some people called him nuts for meeting with the taliban and beginning the process to pull out of afghanidtan, but Biden went ahead and continued it. Despite people framing him as Putins puppet, he further armed Ukraine. I would actually prefer if he was a wild card because going against the establishments plans would actually be really good for the world in a lot of ways. For example some leaks show he started to turn on Netanyahu because he felt he was blocking a settlement. But Trumps advisors convinced him to toe the party line. Obama was a bit more of a wild card with the Iran deal and normalization with Cuba, clearly a lot of the establishment didn’t want that based on their behavior and after Trump reneged it Biden didn’t go back and undo that.
  17. What makes you think Trump will be any different? https://www.mtracey.net/p/never-forget-that-donald-trump-snookered
  18. The point of the video isn’t his belief on that issue, it’s how easily he switches moralities depending on what he’s talking about. In a discussion with Candace Owens she accused him of being a contrarian and he slightly smiled then denied it. What he does is he picks a position that goes against the far right or far left, usually left of center mainstream dem, then starts twisting himself to justify it. That’s not a insightful or good faith strategy, it just appears that way because it’s usually easier to defend establishment positions. Say what you will about Vaush but at least he has something of a moral system he worked out and uses as a lens to view issues and develop arguments based on, as flawed as it can be.
