The Hamas charter indicates that they would accept a two-state solution with 1967 borders. This is not something the state of Israel will accept and is quite blatant in declaring that they would prefer to keep up the genocide.

In the 2017 Charter, Hamas states its claims, such as making Jerusalem its capital. However, nowhere in the charter does Hamas state that it will recognise Israel. In fact the document explicitly rejects recognition of Israel and aims for “liberation of all of Palestine” Note also that Hamas never repealed their 1988 charter that called for the annihilation of Israel and contains openly antisemitic language. For a tw…

No, they reject zionism:

"20. Hamas believes that no part of the land of Palestine shall be compromised or conceded, irrespective of the causes, the circumstances and the pressures and no matter how long the occupation lasts. Hamas rejects any alternative to the full and complete liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea. However, without compromising its rejection of the Zionist entity and without relinquishing any Palestinian rights, Hamas considers the establishment of a fully sovereign and independent Palestinian state, with Jerusalem as its capital along the lines of the 4th of June 1967, with the return of the refugees and the displaced to their homes from which they were expelled, to be a formula of national consensus."

Which is a very reasonable position, since it is a movement predicated on genocidal violence and the crime of apartheid. If the state of Israel were to reform or through revolution become democratic and stop its incessant aggression towards both neighbours and more distant countries, I'm sure Hamas would "recognise Israel".

But as I said, this is not an acceptable alternative to the jewish israeli mainstream, nor the zionist movement generally.

The palestinians are actually pretty good at not killing "innocent[s]". Much better than the israelis, who have made sport, commerce and dating out of humiliation and terror perpetrated against palestinians.

This is a very bizarre conspiracy theory definition.

How so? Which part do you disagree with, the violent crimes or that most participants in the movement are christians?

"Damaged a bunch of UK Military's planes" == spray painted two planes

Spray painting a jet engine causes millions in damages, but it's a cute sleight of hand to insinuate it's just some graffiti on a wall or something.

You don't actually know how much it cost, you just believe what the police say despite the fact that they've provided no figures.

replit is actually quite popular among teenagers and basically third world youngsters trying to spin off a service or a "product" of their own. - i mean yes u cannot make money out of teenagers but damn replit's Vibe coding tool is fucking good. Better than Lovable or Bolt any day. just to give u a perspective from a 20year old kid from a 3rd world county

If your optimizing for simple, powerful, and on mobile then Replit is hard to beat.

Not that your comment is relevant, but why is there a narrative of obstruction when you can visibly see Renee Good wave another truck by moments before she was killed? https://www.reddit.com/r/law/comments/1q7cg7o/minneapolis_ic...

See for yourself: https://nypost.com/2026/01/09/us-news/dramatic-footage-from-...

The newly released footage is truly a political Rorschach test. It is unbelievable to me that anyone without diminished mental capabilities could believe that exonerates the camera man.

Are we still doing these kinds of lionizing puff pieces after SBF, Holmes, Musk and all the others? By now, I consider being featured in one a negative signal.

Model Y and Falcon 9 are fakes?

You're just changing the topic with unrelated accusations. How nice or mean you think a military is irrelevant to the fact that they don't like random journalists tweeting photos of their military assets.

Next time, if you really want to have a serious discussion, cut the snark and try not to hide behind a throwaway. This is not Reddit.

You might want to review the HN guidelines yourself. You shouldn't be complaining about snark right after writing

> your good faith arguments have convinced me!

> Silly me, how could I even argue about this? It’s just so damn obvious!

While I agree that the land has been taken by force, unfortunately returning the land is no longer an acceptable option. The land of Israel has been developed in such a way that it has become completely different from what it was one century ago, and there is no doubt that its previous owners could have never succeeded to do a similar development, due to a combination of lacking both the financial means and the skill…

You need to take into account that Zionists are aging out of the population. The younger generations in the West absolutely support military action against Israel. If it was taken by force, it can be returned by force. I would definitely support US military action against Israel to defeat Zionism.

> younger generations in the West absolutely support military action against Israel

The West–and America in particular–has always had a contingent that believes in drawing foreign borders through force. Particularly in the Middle East. It goes back to Sykes and Picot.

I wouldn't put a war with Israel out of the cards in my lifetime. But it’s not happening in the next two decades—our neo-imperial ambitions have found purchase closer to home.
