As someone who lives in Northern Israel, this is all true, but Israel is (technically) responding, the idf has killed several higher ups at Hezbollah and bombed a bunch of military targets. I'm not saying that makes any of these things Israels fault, but the reason the idf isn't escalating is not because they are afraid of how the UN treats them or something, it's because the idiots that run the government here don't give a single fuck about us in the north, and they know that if they escalate too far Hezbollah could start bombing tel aviv and other cities. They have like 86,000 rockets or something like that

This is wrong. If you're talking about Melenchon he had a talk in Senegal where precisely he warned against russian and chinese influence (without naming them but it seemed quite clear to everyone) in their quest for more independence. He encouraged them, but also wished for greater cooperation, effectively fighting against Putin's rhetoric. Not exactly move you'd do if you were on Putin's payroll as it doesn't help his electoral prospects here either since virtually nobody heard of it. I only did because the right wing brought up the part where he gets booed for defending LGBT rights, as a way of dividing, as they do, and then decided to watch the whole thing.

They could list plenty of examples where say public teachers do lazy work compared to private. Everyone thinks their opposition is cynical. I think the left use immigration as a way to ship votes into the country, because they are > 50% left voting. Might not be true but that's how each side sees the other, on pretty much *every* issue. But i know that there are plenty of people are firmly believe in their ideals. So it's unfair to say all lefties are cynical. Same with right.

If I had to guess, I think Nadav was actually long deceased by the time the propaganda tape was released and that the video was old. The IDF announced Nadav deceased alongside the three elderly men, and Hamas announced those men as deceased in March. I think Nadav was likely held with them and Hamas was holding onto announcing his death (which they've done in the past, i.e. how they announced Ronen Engel as deceased also in March, but the IDF declared him deceased on 1 Dec. 2023) for reasons yet to be known to us. ETA: I should clarify that the reason I think it's relevant that Nadav was likely held with Amiran Cooper, Chaim Peri, Yoram Metzger, is because I'm bracing for the announcement that they were likely killed in an airstrike. The IDF's wording at that press conference usually comes before the announcement and I suspect we'll see it soon enough.

The IDF spokesman in Arabic announced this morning the suspension of offensive activities every day until further notice between eight in the morning and seven in the evening [along the route marked on the attached map](https://imgur.com/a/vQoaL1j), which connects the Kerem Shalom crossing in the south of the Gaza Strip and the European Hospital in Khan Yunis, in order to facilitate the movement of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip . According to the IDF spokesman, the move was formulated with UN officials in order to help the humanitarian efforts in the field. The move went into effect yesterday, according to the publication After the announcement regarding the cessation of hostilities in certain areas was issued by the IDF spokesman and the backlash it received, what with the recent falling of 11 soldiers in Rafah, it turns out that the Minister of Defense or another authorized political authority did not approve it. Afterwards IDF spokesman released another message (this time in Hebrew) claiming that there is no cessation in hostilities in Rafah, but he was very vague about it and didn't make it clear whether this plan for cessation of hostilities along the route was truly cancelled, and the ball is in Gallant's court as to whether or not this plan will be put into effect, which according to some sources he will approve the plan, and according to others he will cancel it. to say that I'm facepalming would be putting it mildly

I can't get over the push-back I'm getting on this, so I'm going to say: the Bibas and Silberman family said, months ago, that they are hurt by the constant speculation on the fates of Shiri, Yarden, Kfir and Ariel. One thing that I've said constantly, as a member of a hostage family, is that people need to remind themselves that these are real people, and not only are they real, but unlike celebrities, politicians, and the like, none of them asked to be known by hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Not even two days ago, the families even [slammed Gantz](https://www.timesofisrael.com/bibas-relatives-gantz-statement-on-hostage-familys-fate-irresponsible-speculation/) for answering a question about them at a conference and [here's a tweet from a reporter](https://x.com/melissaeweiss/status/1755234043551940646) who said that the family begged people to stop speculating about the family in February. Hagari has gone as far to continuously emphasize that any information [will be shared with the family first.](https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-finds-video-of-bibas-family-in-gaza-very-concerned-for-mother-youngest-hostages/) I recall a relative slamming a reporter who kept asking them about this back in February, but I'm having trouble finding it for now. My point is that it is *totally okay to ask about things that pop up,* but I'm seeing a lot of people get downright nasty or obsessive about that clip, arguing for sure that it's them because a variety of logical reasons. The ugly truth is that Hamas & co., likely launched that clip because the Bibas family was in the news again when the family told Gantz to stop speculating because it hurt them, so Hamas decided to cause speculation to hurt them. It's not too hard to connect. It is probably a random clip they found online and might not even be from Gaza for all we know. Hamas would not let the Bibas kids see daylight and to be frank, we don't even know that the kids are still redheaded -- their father is a dark Mizrahi Jew (I seem to recall Yemenite) and kids change rapidly. Again: asking questions is fine; arguing about it and spreading it as truth, or even a sincere possibility, is not okay. People are getting so obsessive over it the family will likely have to comment, which causes them pain for no reason. Even if you don't think it hurts, it does hurt. I noticed in a recent article that the Silberman & Bibas families had to hire a representative to speak for them due to the constant inquiries. That's a real manifestation of pain. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

I emphasized this below, but I want to emphasize again that discourse is to be expected and okay, but once in awhile, it crosses a line when people begin to claim unverified things as facts. Perhaps "speculation" wasn't the best word I could have used in my OP since speculation in the truest definition of the word is to be expected, but it should be based only on reasonable/related things (i.e. I presume the Bibas kids don't go outside because all the other children who were released reported that they were not allowed to go outside). Not, "this random Twitter accounted shared a video with two red haired children, so this must be Ariel and Kfir". Again, asking about it okay, but claiming it as fact is when things get rough. I think most people, even if this line is hard to define with words, have a good gut feeling of when they are dancing around it. I wake up to DM's from people every day that say things like, "I noticed xyz and was curious but it felt wrong to post it publicly" and that's kind of what I'm getting at. We're only human to think about these things, but once we share it, there's nothing stopping our comments from ending up in a viral TikTok video, Tweet, or DailyMail article and getting back to the families and hurting them in the process.

I read the whole report. They say that at the top, but if you look into the meat of it, their main reasoning is that if you add together all of the food deliveries reported coming into Gaza since April, it represents around 100% of the kCal needs of the population. That's the data they're relying on.

Seems to me the reporting has always been that there is uneven access to those calories depending on where you are in Gaza. I've never seen it reported that every pocket of Gaza is in famine. The total calories getting in doesn't tell the story of the deprivation in specific areas. Your point may have more relevance to culpability, than suffering ( ie Israel is letting in enough, it's just not getting everywhere, evenly).

The wording is vague, the way they put it is, that the data that would support famine is missing. Or in other words, if there are no bodies, there is no evidence of murder.

Trump and Bush love using the big stick but fucking suck at using it (reckless morons). Obama had a very competent admin but he was so obsessed with polling numbers he ignored his advisors when it came to the Arab spring. (Yes, literally all of his advisors were begging him to do soemthing about Syria, he ignored them because of the polling data, then later he said it was one of his biggest regrets lol…..) Biden I expect to not be perfect, but he isn’t bat shit crazy putting tarriffs on our Allie’s like Canada, and has zero foreign policy visions accept making himself look good and enriching his business empire. Biden also is a strong supporter of ukraine where as trump is giving ukraine the same rhetoric he gave Syria. (Trump recently said in a meeting that the Ukrainians have never fought with us historically, when they actually fought with us in ww2, ww1, and even with us in afghanisdan after 9/11)…. The Syrians fought with us against isis and trump left the fsa and sdf at the mercy of Erdogan and assad (a lot of them died because of trumps decisions). Ditching to useful assets in Syria. Biden also actually is proposing a 2 state solution for israel Palestine instead of just giving the Israeli far right what ever they want which is what trump did. I can go on and on, but Biden and Obama aren’t perfect, they are weak often and can make stupid compromising decisions trying to appease the radical fringes of their respective parties, but they are a heck a lot better than the completely idiocracy you would get under bush or trump.

Not a single country has "done their own laundry" in the age of nation states. Not. A. Single. Country. Iranians have not "let their culture be destroyed", the opposite is true. Iranian culture is preserved in any way possible. One such way: Regime agents will be in the crowds of poetry clubs to arrest anyone uttering words that resemble criticsm towards the regime. Poets will be jailed for months/years, then go back to the clubs to share their writing and get arrested again. Outnumbering government forces 8 or 9 to 1. Sure. But the regime holds pretty much all the reigns to communications, they have all the guns, bombs and wealth of Iran. Time and time again, Iranians pour into the streets and get shot, mutilated, jailed, raped, tortured and murdered. International recognition or support? Fucking chirps and lip service. What would be helpful is for countries that could do something is to realize that regime fuckers are terrified cowards. Next time Iranians risk life and limb to protest, maybe a friendly nation could drone the dispatch points/barracks of regime forces being sent to suppress protests. Hit them a couple times and they will shit their pants and refuse to beat down protestors. Iranians will take it from there.
