Yeah, its still being mentioned, or on the moving text on bottom of screen; ...sean diddy combs trial (add nonsense)....100 palestinians killed during israeli airstrick....Melania Trump staue goes missing in Moldova (or wherever TF she's from)....
on the corporate news its just pundits pumping up/shooting down Trump, Trump, Trump 24/7.

There's been a sudden push to blame the whole thing on Netanyahu. The FT, New York Times, and possibly other publications have recently come out saying enough is enough and Bibi has to be restrained.
I don't have the talent to satirize satire. The irony is though, compared to the people likely to fill Bibi's shoes ,....He's a fucking Hippie.

I want the probability of me and Shaka listening to a Kula Shaker tribute act while wrapped up in a Hamas flag to be as close to zero as possible - this affects my strategy.

There is an absolutely guaranteed way to make said probability absolutely zero, and whilst I would not be the one to recommend, the fact of the matter is it would put you in the same camp as Aaron Bushnell. But the fact also is that saying close to zero is a chickenshit cop out.

Classic rightist concerned more with moaning about his paltry stocks in tesco than getting the job done — and respecting social cohesion... what can you say?

inb4 you go on about leftists encouraging self-harm, in my ideal dictatorship you will not have any access to television and the internet. Not that I am a leftist, but quite merciful compared to what your mobs would do, I should think.

It Would compell you to develop a thought that isn't pregnant with the nausea of pre-pubescent noncecore spectator consciousness.

If you really wanted to ruffle some feathers you would drag your bacon infected liam gallagher herpes infested backside to reddit and troll palestine subreddits, but you would go below karma quota. I don't, of course, approve of such a system, but it might .. encourage you to be more sociable.

They certainly seem to be trying.

The Houthi’s should be given the Nobel peace prize for their incredible raw courage and the morality of their stance/actions

really?


Throughout the nine-year conflict in Yemen, parties to the conflict have perpetrated widespread violations of international humanitarian law and international human rights law, causing extensive civilian harm. The conflict has included unlawful attacks, including likely war crimes, targeting homes, hospitals, schools, and markets, a number of which were carried out deliberately and indiscriminately. However, the parties to the conflict, powerful state allies like the United States, the United Kingdom, and France, and UN institutions have failed to hold rights violators accountable. Under customary international law, warring parties are obligated to provide “full reparation for the loss or injury caused” for their violations of international humanitarian law.

Yemen is one of the world’s largest humanitarian crises, with more than 21 million Yemenis in need of assistance and suffering from inadequate food, health care, and infrastructure. Despite this, all parties to the conflict have taken actions that have harmed civilians. The Saudi- and UAE-led coalition has attacked food, water, and health infrastructure. The Houthis have imposed an abusive siege on Taizz, and have blocked water from entering the public water network. The Yemeni government and the Houthis impose unnecessary restrictions and regulations on humanitarian organizations and aid projects, creating lengthy delays. And in Aden, the Yemeni government and the Southern Transitional Council have failed to fulfill Aden residents’ right to electricity and water.

Uh, ok. I can list quite a few opinions and/or arguments Chomsky has made that I disagree with, but I’m not surprised if we happen to agree on that. I haven’t heard him say what I said, but it I’ll take that on face value.

Full disclosure: I have attended Chomsky talks and read a good amount of his work.
I hold him in high esteem.
Edit; I look at him as a great source of rebuke in regards to American foreign policy.
If I can make an analogy (that makes sense to me) in the Army, the Green Berets are the teachers/jesuits of that branch. They go and work with/advise/assist insurgents/counter insurgents.
Some like Ralph Nader is more akin to the Rangers. Direct action/doers.
If I were to consider my aligned with those two analogies, I would consider myself more a Naderite.

Chompers and Finkels are hardline tankie lunatics who'd find some way of holding America to blame and/or supporting the invasion if an alien war fleet appeared in low earth orbit and started sterilising the planet's surface with gamma rays.

That said, I'd like to say thay Hamas are great and I hope they win, purely for the sake of antagonising and ostracising @mixed_biscuits.
