I posted plenty of details on how specific Israel policies limited economic development and food, you can ignore it if you like, doesn’t make it any less true. It’s a fact they limit imports, it’s a fact they’ve officially said they purposefully did it to put them on a diet. Ignoring this is just silly, even Israel’s government doesn’t argue this case, they just justify it as necessary. Israeli officials already said they are not minimizing civilian casualties, their aim is to cause as much damage as possible. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/10/damning-evidence-of-war-crimes-as-israeli-attacks-wipe-out-entire-families-in-gaza/ Gaza brought the war on itself in the same way blacks in Africa rebelling in apartheid brought brutal crackdowns and violence on themselves. Apartheid states react. I really don’t see how you can keep calling Israel intelligent when they failed to stop a massive attack from the most surveyed population in the world and have now provoked their neighbors to the point where they’re at risk of a war with Hezbollah while also preparing to occupy Gaza on the ground. They’ve stupidly sacrificed their own safety again to harm Palestinians.

Lawrence Wright had some balanced books on US motivations in the Middle East and Islamic extremism, they are 13 days, looming tower, and terror years.

59% of Iraqi’s said they preferred life in the previous regime, that doesn’t count the over 1 million killed. Afghanistan’s situation is worse because not only did the war massacre huge amounts of them and destroy the country, they ended up with the Taliban in charge anyway. The USA failed to install a solid government, it was unrealistic to expect Afghans to do it when the USA was limiting support and allowing huge amounts of corruption.

But the war *wasn’t* short, just taking out the regime and thinking that’ll solve your problems is wrong, it will create more.

Iraqi’s also hates their regime, Afghanistan citizens also hates the taliban regime. How short were those wars?

What you’re saying is ridiculous. Just posting a street video in Gaza is not proof life there is “good”. Due to the blockade they have a 50% unemployment rate, the constant wars and violence have caused 70% of the population to have PTSD, over 90% of the water sources are contaminated, Israel limits the food they get on purpose to keep them hungry. No one can develop in such a scenario. Limitation of basic goods Main article: Gaza imports Israel allows limited humanitarian supplies from aid organizations into the Gaza Strip, but not dual-use items, which can also be used for military purposes. According to the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories of the Israel Defense Forces, in May 2010, this included over 1.5 million litres of diesel fuel and gasoline, fruits and vegetables, wheat, sugar, meat, chicken and fish products, dairy products, animal feed, hygiene products, clothing and shoes.[197] According to Gisha, items that have at various times been denied importation into Gaza in 2010 include ordinary consumer goods such as jam, candles, books, musical instruments, shampoo, A4 paper, and livestock such as chicken, donkeys, and cows.[198][199] The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs also lists wheelchairs, dry food items, crayons, stationery, and soccer balls as shipments that Israeli authorities have prevented from entering Gaza.[200][201][202] International aid group Mercy Corps said it was blocked from sending 90 tons of macaroni and other foodstuffs. After international pressure, Israeli authorities said that they were giving the shipment a green light.[83] Israel was also reported to have prevented aid groups from sending in other items, such as paper, art supplies, tomato paste and lentils.[203] Because of an Israeli ban on the importation of construction materials such as cement and steel, which could be used to build bunkers for military use by Hamas, the UN Relief and Works Agency started to build mud brick homes.[204] Aid agencies[who?] say that food waits on trucks and in warehouses, and many basic items are rejected by Israel as "luxuries" or are turned down for unexplained reasons[citation needed]. "Tin" cans are banned because the steel from which they are made might be used to build weaponry or structures by Hamas, making it hard for Gazan farmers to preserve their vegetables.[205]At one time the only fruit allowed was bananas, allegedly[who?] because the Israeli official owned a banana plantation.[206][unreliable source?] Effect on the fishing industry Al Jazeera report on the effects on the fishing industry The sea blockade has caused damage to Gaza fishing industry. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has estimated that Gaza fishermen need to journey at least 12–15 nautical miles from shore to catch larger shoals, and sardines in particular are 6 nmi (11 km) offshore. Shoals closer to shore have been depleted. The total catch pre-blockade in 1999 was nearly 4,000 tons, this was reduced to 2,700 tons in 2008. In the 90s, the Gaza fishing industry was worth $10 million annually or 4% of the total Palestinian economy; this was halved between 2001 and 2006. 45,000 Palestinians were employed in the fishing industry, employed in jobs such as catching fish, repairing nets and selling fish. Fish also provided much-needed animal protein to Gazans' diet.[192] The International Committee of the Red Cross also notes that "90% of Gaza's 4000 fishermen are now considered either poor (with a monthly income of between US$100 and US$190) or very poor (earning less than US$100 a month), up from 50% in 2008." Nezar Ayyash, head of Gaza's fishermen's union, is quoted as saying that he has been arrested and his boat confiscated several times.[20] According to the Palestinian Fishermen's Syndicate, there are 3,800 registered fishermen in the Gaza Strip. Only 2,000 of them are currently working as a result of restrictions, constant attacks and growing cost of fishing equipment.

He usually mentions in the video or has on his booklist where he learned what he’s saying from

Chomsky has also argued Gaza could be very economically successful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoC7sRNkrlI

Studies have actually found lockdowns don’t work and overall cause more harm than benefit. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9368251/ https://iea.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Perspectives-_1_Did-lockdowns-work__June_web-1.pdf

Again, there was a left wing secular Palestinian liberation movement, it was thwarted and radicals like hamas empowered by Israel’s government specifically to damage chances for a Palestinian state. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-10-11/ty-article/.premium/netanyahu-needed-a-strong-hamas/0000018b-1e9f-d47b-a7fb-bfdfd8f30000 Even a politician in Israel who was pushing for a peaceful two state resolution was assassinated by Jewish extremists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yitzhak_Rabin you can’t do everything in your power to sabotage peace and support extremists then complain the extremists are making you brutally occupy them.

He was personally affected by the pandemic. He said his kids grandmother died because covid shutdowns stopped her from getting cancer treatments and his barber died from an overdose because the shutdown cancelled his recovery meetings. It also collapsed his business and a lot of his friends businesses and where he shops because he doesn’t trust mainstream stores and encouraged his clients to start small businesses but the lockdown crushed them. During the pandemic he said he was invited to parties with rich famous people and politicians who publicly were supporting lockdowns and restrictions but at the parties weren’t following them at all, he posted a story of the Walmart heirs driving a pug around in a toy car in a huge party where no one was wearing masks for example.

Do nor speak English at home, use your native languages https://ifstudies.org/blog/the-immigrant-paradox-why-are-children-of-immigrants-doing-better children do not get confused by multiple languages, they should learn them automatically if exposed at the right age

Reports are that he wanted Hamas to lead Gaza to try and make Gaza and West Bank not cooperate and hurt the PLO which was pushing for a Palestinian state. I highly doubt he wanted this attack to happen, tons of people are asking him to resign, he underestimated Hamas.
