Apparently it’s the former. Their prosecution rate is 8% apparently according to Wikipedia, because they’re too understaffed to deal with cases that can go either way. They also have a false confession problem, but that’s not what’s getting them to that rate.
Not quite. This has been a thing since before the Holocaust, and holocaust victims are actually targets of discrimination in Israel.
Egypt is a strong supporter of the Palestinians
Funniest joke I’ve seen today.
Not would. Remember when the ICC tried to investigate US war crimes in Afghanistan?
And no mention of Israel. Classic.
Fuck me the USA has turned into Russia,
Always has been. There’s a reason all meaningful Israel-related UN resolutions are 50+ years old.
Oh they’re gonna sanction people. I thought this was a bigger deal, but I guess it’s a nothing-ish burger.
I love this meme.
As an Egyptian, yes.
I’ve never used a Mac but my experience with iPhones and iPads (not mine) has convinced me to never touch anything Apple makes. The requirement of iTunes to send files between an iPhone and a PC is, for example, just ridiculous.
car makers just jack up their prices so they make more off the subsidy
Exactly.
Really we should be subsidizing EVs from our own manufacturers.
You are. Still not doing much to corporate greed.
Not that I doubt it, but what did the US do to Canada?
IKFR? If America wants to lose India to China then go the fuck ahead.
Okay good point about the threat WWII Japan posed but you’re going too far in the other direction. When asked about going to war with America admiral Yamamoto said what amounts to “this is a bad idea don’t”. Now part of their failure definitely lies in poor leadership, and I can see the idea that if they’d concentrated on America instead of opening a war on three (two and a half?) fronts they might’ve made significant gains until America’s industry caught up, but they simply didn’t have the industrial base to keep the US down. The US also has very good natural defenses that you forgot to take into account. Remember: Their ships and airplanes were all handmade.
Israel’s needs are a sliver of what Russia uses in Ukraine.
Russia has been importing weapons from North Korea, and Israel uses absolutely ridiculous amounts of ammunition for their size.
Palestinians only have one method of resistance left, and that’s violence. Telling them to not use it because Israelis might get hurt is, and I’m sorry to say this, frankly ridiculous. If Israelis don’t want to get hurt maybe they should give Palestinians the state they’ve been asking for for forty years. I understand your concern, but the onus to prevent this outcome is squarely on Israel; as colonized people Palestinians have the right to use all means necessary to obtain their freedom.
That said, you’re most likely worrying over nothing. Hamas doesn’t have the capability to overthrow Israel; their operations mostly serve to lose Israel face on the international stage. The only scenario in which Israel falls is if America completely leaves it out to the wolves and the middle east tears it apart, which is extremely unlikely.
Most citizens of Israel have not brought it upon themselves.
Okay I understand the reflex to explain how governments don’t represent their people, but look at this and you might wanna reconsider. Netanyahu didn’t come out of nowhere; he came in when the only man in Israeli history who had the potential to actually end the conflict was assassinated (after Netanyahu and his ilk went in parades calling for his assassination) and since then it’s all been genocidal maniacs (save for one guy in 2008 who still didn’t have the guts to actually do something worthwhile), mostly Netanyahu himself. Now I don’t believe in “push the Zionists into the sea” rhetoric, and the only time it was realistic was in 49’ anyway, but the conduct of the Israeli public these past few months in particular and in the past 30 years in general has been nothing short of fucking disgusting. If Israel does fall and they’re persecuted by the new regime, anyone who wasn’t explicitly pushing for peace (and children and the like of course) is getting nothing but Schafenfreude from me.
All of this is excluding foreign-born citizens of Israel; anyone who willingly went to that place and isn’t explicitly calling for peace is a piece of shit.
They had every right to respond to the attack from Hamas
I mean if history started on October 7th.
Cut off all support and Israel buddies up with China, India, or possibly even Russia.
Ain’t happening. I don’t know why India would even be involved here, and China has no need to project power over the middle east. Russia would be importing weapons from Israel, not the other way around.
I love me some karma.
