10 years? since 90s more like

careful, lw mods don’t like that

Hand grenades are vastly superior fighters compared to Navy SEALs. When hand grenades complete their mission, they simply cease to exist, but Navy SEALs get book deals, shit takes on twitter and a podcast

stop the presses!! a cryptobro got scammed out of 90k$ “worth” of fake money, we must slow down all computation! for safety

times have changed

i don’t sit inside your head, go get some sleep if you think otherwise

you gotta be arguing with somebody else, because i didn’t say any of that

in a hypothetical world where you can mount meaningful opposition to hamas while living in gaza for long enough for it to matter, then yeah

but i don’t deal with counterfactuals and while this would be morally correct, heroic etc i don’t expect any of this

what i have said is that if you want to have lasting peace, you need to have both likud and hamas out of the picture. note: i’m not saying who should do it, or how, or when, or if it even will happen at all. that’s because there’s plenty of people whose plans and incentives don’t include lasting peace and actively work against it, for example likud and hamas. and i’m not predicting anything, i’m just saying that shit’s fucked and whatever happens now, it won’t be pretty

how have you got to this conclusion

free palestine from hamas

awfully lot of people make the mistake of conflating palestinians with hamas, especially considering that the last elections were out there almost 20 years ago and weren’t allowed since. west bank effectively treats gaza as under rebel government

(same goes for conflating israelis with israeli govt of course. they have mostly-functional elections, but bibi tries hard to undo it with his judiciary fuckery. this might be one reason for intelligence lapse - some army people resigned as a result of these moves and in parallel some seats were stuffed with bibi’s people)

then you have this bit where likud needs hamas because this riles up israeli nationalists, which harass and contain gaza and send out settlers which radicalizes palestinian right wingers, which

this has been going on for considerable time and is deliberate strategy of likud https://www.vox.com/23910085/netanyahu-israel-right-hamas-gaza-war-history https://theintercept.com/2018/02/19/hamas-israel-palestine-conflict/

goes without saying that you can’t really have peaceful palestine with hamas existing but i’d also say that you can’t really have peaceful palestine with likud in power
