“If the infection spreads among ten soldiers in an infantry company, and they develop a fever after their temperature reaches 40 degrees Celsius, and they start having diarrhea every 20 minutes, then they are no longer fit to fight and they expose themselves to the risk of death,” he pointed out.

This might have to do with food poisoning https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20231205-idf-soldiers-hit-by-serious-outbreak-of-food-poisoning/

As one wise person once said:

"Was it the food or was it cowardice?"

Like I just said, I don't like watching ppl suffer too much... I'd just want shoot them dead and not have to look at them....

Plus, if you're talking about literal plagues, then biological warfare doesn't sit well for me

the implication is that these plagues are of divine provenance.

I guess the least I can say is that they deserved it (the diarrhea and diseases) for their actions,

but the concept of the 10 plagues, specifically the boils, imposed on Ancient Egypt still horrifies me, from when I was a child, and that, coupled with my anti-sanction stance as an anti-imperialist, makes me believe the 10 plagues are kinda like a metaphor to the horrors of western-imposed sanctions...

(Yes, I know the Bible may not be a historically-accurate book but in all its context, the concept still scares me)

Understandable, I too just want fascists gone as expediently as possible with minimal theatrics*
