-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Hilter with all the industrial capacity of Europe killed 6 million Jews
There are 6.5 million Palestinians in the territories, the Israelis don't have enough bullets or bombs and every picture of a dead Palestinian child increases the temperature in every Arab country from Morocco to Iraq and that makes the regimes and their backers nervous
There is a threshold that once reached will make the old Arab spring look like a fuckin pinic party
Palestinians aren't going anywhere and the resistance will continue, unless the settlers want to bring gas chambers in which case they'll have 300 million Arabs rightfully out for blood
Yes I agree that there is not feasible way that Israeli starts engaging in explicit industrial genocide without catastrophic consequences for them. Israel as a society is simply not feasible in the long-term. If you've every spoken with a young Israeli, this is clearly reflected by the all-pervading nihilism and either openly fascistic settler-colonialist nationalism or hedonistic passivity among them in contemporary Israeli society.
This is also why I think that the actual Israeli objective is rather to use a brutal ground operation to try and decapitate Hamas. But we'll see and I could obviously be wrong.
