Phew, for a moment there I thought all that electoral shenanigans and voter intimidation might have been for nothing, bit it turns out they did pay off.

I think 4 counts as a few, no?
Arguably the hard right foreign policies of the US from the last 10-20 years are responsible for a lot of the migrant waves Europeans are fearing. You guys blew up the middle east…
How dare they threaten one of the few democracies in the Iberian Peninsula! Spain has a right to defend itself.
You assume the perpetrators were thinking humans. That’s a wild assumption.
This happened in Montreal too. Utterly despicable and outrageous in every way.
The Streisand effect.
He doesn’t work for you, he doesn’t answer to you.
The commercialization of housing has failed.
Let’s say that Hamas is 10% of the population - I don’t think it is, but let’s use that number.
The Palestinians are already on the verge of famine. This will make things worse, and disease is absolutely going to decimate the population.
Decimation was the Roman practice of killing 1 out of every 10 mutinous/deserter (i.e., guilty of something) soldiers to punish an entire legion while still keeping it operational as a combat unit. Here we have the opposite. It is killing 9 innocents to get to also kill 1 additional (very hypothetically) guilty person.
This is the saddest “um ackchyually” I have ever written.
This is the kind of person who would subsequently propose coming up with a more efficient way of killing the prisoners without using so many bullets and without traumatizing so many soldiers. Maybe some kind of gas in some kind of chamber, you know.
Fascists just can’t fucking help themselves.
It’s plainly undeniable phenomena like this why idiots have switched from climate denial to climate doomerism.
After Ireland gained independence they fought a civil war. Same in countless outer places. The Greeks fought one while fighting for independence. I fully expect the Palestinians to do the same.
The thing is: the Israelis don’t get to decide any of this. That what independence from Israel means.
Yes. Which is why I’m arguing for the global north to subsidize the global south.
Just for the record, nowhere did I argue for moving Botswanans out of their land.
I’m sure the elephants would be thrilled to have their biome arbitrarily swapped out from under their feet 🙄
That’s a silly argument. Lions for example haven’t lived in southern Europe since antiquity. If you’re going to ask pointed accusatory questions of the Greeks for the fate of lions, go and ask the same of the indigenous people of North America about the fate of giant sloths. The concept of managed biodiversity conservation is a modern one.
Palestine has a right to defend itself.
Thatcherism has always been Orwellian.
Your deity doesn’t exist, lady. No god “gave” you anything.
