Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue

There are no words I can say about this that won't have Tev and Dalton threatening to ban me but fuck it. If they ban me they and the rest of the staff of this board will have shown themselves to be supporters of genocide and I wouldn't want to stay here anyway.

Israel. Is. A. Mistake.

I don't see any way Israel finally succeeding in depopulating and conquering Palestine wouldn't cause their neighbors to see red.

Re: Hamas launched mass attacks on Israel

Would be a lot easier for multiple other countries, possibly in the same region, to absorb the Palestinian population so that Israel can be left alone to Israel by itself. If we were going to go that route. Speaking as an American I'd prefer not to have several million bitter ex-Israelis who are re...

Re: Hamas launched mass attacks on Israel

Jub: The US is just going to "absorb" 9 million people? (or 7 million if we just mean the jewish people) The US already does that with 1.5 million per year as a default state of existence. Done over a period of a decade that would less than double those numbers. Plus, 9 million is going t...

Re: Hamas launched mass attacks on Israel

There are indeed no easy answers. I don't know how to accomplish that but of course trying to dissolve Israel entirely comes with it's own massive practical problems with what to do with the population. I'd assume most would join the diaspora in the US where they would be, relatively, easily absorb...

If you believe Israel should exist as a Jewish state then by definition you think Palestinians are subhuman vermin. There’s no middle ground Er... no? You can support a two state solution.

If she's going to stay in the job then good on her for doing her best to do the job (unlike some of the clowns in Congress these days).

Re: Terrestrial fusion energy over-rated compared to fission

Fissile materials are basically unlimited for all intents and purposes though. The idea that they're limited to a century or less is a talking point based on a lot of shady reasoning like only counting current existing mines.
