Those numbers are pathetic compared to the suffering caused by the israeli occupation of palestinians. The palestinian armed groups had a lot more weaponry than they brought along on October 7th, in an operation that was explicitly aimed at military personnel and bases, as detailed in the israeli report published a while back. They concluded for example that the palestinians in the unorganised second wave arrived at…

There are proofs against everything you wrote here. How can capturing children as hostages be "explicitly aimed at military personnel"? OK, they didn’t find a military base, so why not butcher party goers, right? Completely normal conclusion. Just read what you type out. The puny resistance with Iranian and Qatari support? Tens of thousands of rockets and drones are "puny"? > “We have local factories for everything,…

You're intermingling the organised operation against the occupation with the unorganised second wave that didn't just result in prisoners.

Yes. It's puny.

It's not defense when you're the aggressor.

To understand this reaction it might be a good idea to watch this Yoav Shamir documentary from 2009, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTAjc1OSrmY . It is antisemitic to equate 'the jews' with zionism and the state of Israel.

plurality of opinion is a wonderful thing, but one fringe position doesn’t make a person right or the authority on a subject. Self reflection is great, and also is greatly missing from how you describe the palestinians. The palestinians don’t have agency in your view, and are only victims which is simply not the case. The fact the jews are free to speak what they think (unlike majority of palestinians) is great, howe…

Why do you think he only interviews one person?

Now you've just picked an hasbara template at random.

What do you mean by "Hamas"? In zionist parlance it is usually a euphemism for palestinians or arabs generally. Do you get payed for hasbara or do you volunteer for some other reason? Only a few countries consider Hamas to be a terrorist organisation. It's unlikely Bibi does, since he got Qatar to give him money in suitcases to drive into the Gaza strip, because banks didn't want to touch it due to the risk of sancti…

USA, Canada, the EU, the UK, Japan, New Zealand and Israel – all the countries that matter to me. I don’t care what Russia or Iran or other non-democratic, tyrant led countries designate the terrorists as. Especially the ones doing weapon deals with them. It is a tragic situation where on both sides people lost families and feeling of safety, yet your concentration on hate doesn’t let you see the complexity and the f…

What "nation"? This is about the state of Israel.

again, there is documented video footage of good life, better than in most arab countries in the region. the fact you refuse to believe reality goes well with everything that you spew out. and defense is a real right, unlike terrorism, if you pick violence, the other side will defend itself - so you are just glorifying more death, and are blind to your bloodlust, which is disgusting.

The occupier is the aggressor. ICJ published an advisory opinion last summer. Palestinian armed resistance is legitimate, within the limits of international law.

most basic thing the international law requires is for combatants to wear a uniform (a major reason why hamas is to blame for deaths of palestinian civilians), not to mention indiscriminate targeting of civilians, hostage taking, rape and torture, use of religious, medical and educational facilities for war purposes and more or less anything that is called armed resistance represents.

I'm afraid it's something I need to agree with. So many areas where resource-based conditions just do not work with particular GCP product offerings and you're forced to give out much broader access than you should be giving out. It's half-arsed and prevents you implementing PoLP. AWS has a steeper learning curve here, but I've never been unable to constrain down e.g. access to an SNS topic in the way I want to.

Feel like AWS is the opposite. It’s often a pain to go as granular as you can go.

In GCP there are many tier-1 services where that is not even possible. It's also definitely gotten way easier to do this using IaC etc.

Maybe let jews speak of what represents them. Definite majority of jews have direct family connection to Israel as well as cultural ties. If 75% of Israel’s population are jews, then who do you refer to, when you identify the people of Israel with their government? Do you mean the Arabs, the Druze and the Samaritans? Probably not.

I think most jews have refused to do aliyah, and jews are a common sight in protests against US-Israeli atrocities. I also think you mean israeli palestinians, not "Arabs", which is a slur in everyday israeli discourse. It's a society with the informal slogan 'death to arabs', as you probably know. Most israeli jews agree with apartheid and the genocidal politics of the state they live under. There are regular polls…

so it it state of israel, or society with a slogan death to arabs? can you decide? For me it’s clear from everything you wrote, so don’t sugar it up with "it’s about state". Here you clearly blame majority of Israelis of wanting a genocide. A generalization like this with so few arguments show your actual true motivation – hate against israelis and jews.

Mostly ad targeting (you can infer a lot of things from the global graph of contacts). Meta is an attention routing company.

How do they spend insane amount of money in targeted ads and all the ads I get are useless? I constantly get ads to learn how to code. Ok I've been doing that professionally for over a decade and I have a real degree from a real university… why would I do some online programming course?

There are much more ads than viable targets.

Among israeli jews that's the mainstream position. According to recent polling only 3% say that it would be immoral to ethnically cleanse the Gaza strip, and 80% support it.

You'll come across the slogan a lot if you start to consume israeli mass media.

Right, if you believe that, start holding the IDF to that standard.

As a victim of occupation it's not illegal to form militias and use other irregular means of warfare.

Even if Abu Obeida dressed in babies it would not be allowed to kill them to kill him. The IDF murders civilians systematically and does not try to avoid civilian casualties. Much of israeli society and the IDF considers palestinian children to be "terrorists" in the making and hence legitimate targets, but international and humanitarian law does not support this position. But this is likely why doctors and surgeons commonly see sniper wounds in the head and torso on small kids in the Gaza strip, and it's why it's not uncommon to see video from the West Bank where some unarmed teenager is left bleeding out in the street while the ambulance is held up by the IDF some distance away.

It was illegal to take hostages, sure, but I'm under the impression that most that were taken on 7th were soldiers and that's another thing entirely. You also don't have any evidence of rape perpetrated by palestinians, while there is quite a bit of evidence for use of rape and sexual abuse against palestinians by israelis. Last summer riots erupted in Israel because some soldiers that raped one of their hostages to death were arrested over it, and a couple of the perpetrators were paraded on evening television as heroes.

your impressions don’t interest anyone, the fact is that rocket attacks and the 7th october as well as most of what you call resistance is targeted at civilians and you are a monster to try to find excuses for that.
