Israel, Hamas agree deal for release of Gaza hostages, truce (www.reuters.com)

GAZA/TEL AVIV, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Israel’s government and Hamas agreed on Wednesday to a four-day pause in fighting to allow the release of 50 hostages held in Gaza in exchange for 150 Palestinians imprisoned in Israel, and the entry of humanitarian aid into the besieged enclave.

I read the 2017 charter where Hamas says they will accept a 2 state solution

hassanmckusick ,

Just go for the shortest domains, short domain names carry a premium. Or rip through /usr/share/dict/words. Or both.

Israel - Infamous for their Information community

Israel - Backed by the US

Hamas - Doesn’t have internet or clean water

Palestine - Doesn’t even have 3G internet when not at “war”

Palestine - ~50% children

Conclusion: “man Hamas sure do be lying on the internet a lot”

hassanmckusick ,

Critical reading is the only skill we need to teach in school. We are clearly failing. This is getting ridiculous.

The IDF confirmed Shani’s death. The IDF has been caught lying already.

Shani’s mother who as I understand it has not actually seen the evidence told a news station “a piece of her skull was found”

Remember Shani’s mother said just a few weeks ago “Shani is alive”

This is far from actually confirmed.

hassanmckusick ,

The problem comes when people justify the “eye for an eye” response that both groups are taking.

This is the all lives matter take of the middle east. Israel has killed 36x as many civilians as all pro-Palestine groups have killed Israeli civilians.

It’s not an eye for an eye. It’s genocide.

hassanmckusick , (edited )

Hiding bombs and murderers behind children is what the world knows of them. It’s fact.

Really cuz I’ve been asking for evidence for 3 weeks and nobody has bothered to link even a single source with 3rd party confirmation.

Edit: Literally since Israel bombed the AP building 2 years ago I have never gotten a single source in response. Nobody even tries.

hassanmckusick ,

Even if it was an iron dome rocket, which is not impossible

If it was an iron dome rocket then Israel knows they’re lying when they say it’s PIJ. You don’t think that’s an issue?

Hundreds storm airport in Russia in antisemitic riot over arrival of plane from Israel (apnews.com)

Hundreds of people stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field Sunday, chanting antisemitic slogans and seeking passengers arriving on a flight from Tel Aviv, Israel, Russian news agencies and social media reported....

hassanmckusick ,

Russia is 5-10% Muslim. Whats the excuse for landing in a majority Muslim town? I don’t see how that happens on accident

hassanmckusick ,

In the wake of the rampage, Israel’s National Security Council and the Foreign Ministry said they have updated the travel warning to the highest Level 4 for Dagestan and other regions in southern Russia, advising Israelis to avoid visiting them and urging all those currently there to leave.

I mean that one will be now.

I was under the impression it was actually a plane full of refugees. I’m confused reading the article a second time because they don’t call it a commercial flight. If it was an organized refugee effort then yes the orgs arranging refuge have a responsibility to do their due diligence to make sure the refugees will be safe.

hassanmckusick ,

MAD isn’t a threat? I thought that was the whole point

hassanmckusick ,

Ok now do one about how Palestine was promised the right to self governance (in 5 years) in 95 and why it took till 2006 for that election to happen. Make sure your answer includes the US for full credit

hassanmckusick ,

This is straight up, unmasked whataboutism.

Asking why something happened is “whataboutisim”? Cmon dude, try harder

hassanmckusick ,

but retorted with a critical counter-question

I’m gonna have to ask you to find the question mark in my original response.

IDF reveals Hamas command posts in and beneath Gaza hospital (www.ynetnews.com)

The IDF revealed on Friday, what it described as intelligence showing a Hamas command center located under a the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. In a briefing, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari told members of the foreign press corps that there are areas in the hospitals that are used by Hamas to direct its military operations.

hassanmckusick ,

The right of self defense takes precedence

It stopped being self defense a while ago bud

hassanmckusick ,

Ohh more garbage for Earshot.ngo to rip appart

hassanmckusick ,

The soldiers have since exited the area and returned to Israeli territory.

It was a pre-invasion to prepare for the big one

hassanmckusick ,

Oh come off it. You’re all up and down these posts repeating lies about Hamas using human shields or how driving the civilians out of their homes in mass does not constitute ethnic cleansing.

Btw here’s the actual definition of “ethnic cleansing”

the mass expulsion or killing of members of an unwanted ethnic or religious group in a society.

You argued with me that it’s totally legit that the IDF isn’t letting journalists verify footage of supposed Hamas atrocities but the IDF is cool with showing that footage to journalists in a private setting where they’re not allowed to record anything.

You whine constantly that Al Jazeera isn’t legitimate but you haven’t posted a single source to debunk any of their reporting.

Post some sources of your own or sit down

hassanmckusick , (edited )

We didn’t argue that

Israel has already been caught lying about Oct 7th. I was pointing out that not releasing the video or allowing it to be recorded means that no one can verify if the footage is legit. You keep insisting “they reviewed it”. I don’t know what you think you were arguing but you were in fact arguing that it is fine that Israel is not allowing journalists to verify evidence (or that a 3rd party had actually already verified it).

Screenshots I'm hiding in a spoiler because they are largehttps://lemmy.discothe.quest/pictrs/image/0428c460-0e95-4894-91ce-8bee371c8090.pnghttps://lemmy.discothe.quest/pictrs/image/42f98c63-cf3d-46ab-8166-a91c67894aad.png

What you were mad about is not being able to watch the deaths yourself

I made a dumb joke about the snyder cut and you interpreted it in the least charitable way insisting that I personally want to watch the footage to celebrate. Don’t be an asshole

hassanmckusick ,

If you’re going to call yourself an anarchist you need to have a serious answer to that question or you make your cause look like a joke.

edit: your takes on prohibition are on point though

Am I the only one seeing this? Is it… normal for 3 comments in a row to have exactly balanced numbers of up and down votes?

That’s a very strange coincidence.

hassanmckusick ,

I run my own instance so I’m always a little paranoid that I fucked it up somehow. Or like, maybe theres a known bug that I don’t know about, or a compatibility issue between versions/platforms.

But as another commenter mentioned, at worse it’s some loser botting but more likely it really was just a coincidence.

hassanmckusick ,

I’m pretty sure it’s the official web UI but I use Memmy on my phone which also shows up and down votes separately

hassanmckusick ,

Israel is already doing ethnic cleansing so… I wouldn’t really call this a win

hassanmckusick ,

They literally can not leave

hassanmckusick , (edited )

The hostages thing is a racist lie and you can tell because we’re 20ish days in and there hasn’t been a single shred of evidence to back it up.

Edit: Ahh I fucked up here. I meant to say “human shields” not “hostages”. Very big mistake on my part

hassanmckusick ,

The headline is propaganda but not for that reason.

Dude was in the cockpit and pulled the fuel cutoff valves for the plane. The pilot and copilot kicked him out of the cockpit and re-engaged the fuel pumps and continued flying. Dude ran up to the fight attendants and told them that they need to handcuff him. Then he tried to open the emergency exit.

It’s propaganda because he said he took the mushrooms 40 hours ago they don’t last that long and he was also sleep deprived and emotionally unstable due to the recent death of a friend

Its psychotic. And then they have the balls to mix actual anti-semites in next to people who just don’t think we should fund a government that kills thousands of civilians with impunity

hassanmckusick ,

I don’t blame social media for this one. I dk where you grew up but being from the US… our government lies to us all the fucking time.

(sorry for what I’m about to do)

'Member Iraq has WMDs? 'member Abu Ghraib? 'member Gitmo? 'member “waterboarding isn’t torture”? 'member we had no warning about 9/11? 'member the “kill team” who took human body parts? 'member Iran-Contra? 'member “I am not a crook”?

And those are just the popular ones.

hassanmckusick ,

I don’t want to turn it into a sides thing, Obama bombed a few hospitals of his own and Biden is fumbling pretty fucking hard right now.

More examples that come to mind:

Gazans forced to drink dirty, salty water as the fuel needed to run water systems runs out (edition.cnn.com)

Hamas’ brutal attacks in Israel on October 7 killed at least 1,400 people and the group took more than 200 hostages, according to Israeli authorities. In the wake of the assault, Israel launched an aerial bombardment of Gaza that Palestinian health officials say has killed more than 5,000 people. Israel also announced a...

hassanmckusick ,

i do not make the distinction between the terrorists sub divisions.

spoilerhttps://pbs.twimg.com/media/D-kkPcWU8AAjT5_?format=jpg&name=smallNo but for real, New Zealand does, same with the UN. Do you think you’re better than New Zealand and the UN?

hassanmckusick ,

I feel like we’re missing the part where Israel could just turn the power back on… if Hamas has fuel to run their weapons what is even the point of cutting electricity?

hassanmckusick ,

I think you’re missing my point.

Do you think the entire power grid of Gaza is run off fossil fuel generators inside of Gaza?

I’ll just cut to the chase. Here, have an infographic from the UN that might be slightly out of date but will still give you a much better understanding of the situation

Yes collective punishment is a war crime

Now please stop bothering me with these low effort comments

hassanmckusick ,

New Zealand funds terrorism because of it.

Not according to the US, do you have any sources to back your claim?

hassanmckusick ,

It’s pretty obvious if you think about it for more than one second.

Biden

hassanmckusick ,

Agreed but you’re splitting hairs. My grandparents who voted for Biden aren’t really “the left” either.

My ex who i’ve convinced to switch sides on this issue but is too afraid to say anything publicly because she doesn’t think she knows enough of the history to take a stance isn’t really “the left”, but she voted Biden too.

Pretty much all of the Democratic leadership except Ilhan Omar.

They’re not leftists but they are “the left”

hassanmckusick ,

The intentional misunderstanding you’re feigning is disgusting.

hassanmckusick ,

The Israeli army has said that it cannot confirm the claims, which were repeated on Wednesday by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s spokesperson Tal Heinrich.

What are you disagreeing with?

Are you trying to say Tal Heinrich is not a spokesperson for the IDF? Because NewsNation, IndiaTimes, Australian Financial Review 9news[dot]au, and the NY Post all refer to her as such. Ohh and theres this piece from JewishInsider

The Prime Minister’s Office has put together a task force that includes some past staff, such as Netanyahu’s former spokesman and diplomatic adviser, Mark Regev, and President Isaac Herzog’s former spokesman, Eylon Levy, as well as new faces such as journalist Tal Heinrich, to help with wartime communications.

The coverup is that it wasn’t an accident, the source is Haaretz

Israel had segregated schools and was practicing eugenics on Ethiopian Jews in 2010 because it’s not a state for all Jews it’s a state for white Jews
