Civilians are pretty much everywhere alongside Hamas members who are usually between them.
Yeah, so maybe they should stop dropping bombs.
Israeli actions wouldn’t be similar to any of them.
Not only is this not true, but even if it were, as I’ve already pointed out it doesn’t need to be similar. A genocide can be totally unique yet still fall under the definition of genocide.
It’s impossible not to kill civilians in such a conflict when the area you are fighting in is a densely populated city
But it is possible to not drop bombs on areas you KNOW civilians are at.
Of course genocide is not defined by numbers. However, all genocides should have some traits in common.
This is also not a part of the definition of genocide.
How should Israel respond?
I get that there are unused ways of minimizing civilian deaths
Seems like you already know the answer to that question. Yet for some reason you’re giving Israel a free pass for killing civilians. So effectively you’re just arguing for terrorism. State terrorism, but terrorism nonetheless.
Good people don’t kill civilians.
I agree that genocides have different flavors but the results of all is a completely or partially removed ethnicity. By saying partially, I mean roughly 40% killed or moved to a detention facility.
The definition of genocide contains no percentage threshold. You’re making definitions up out of thin air.
Most of those deaths happen due to the lack shelters and lack of places where people can hide.
…and the bombs landing on their heads.
If Israel wanted to genocide Palestinians, they would have done it in a week.
Not all genocides are done with equal fervor.
Also, they would not have to be dead if Hamas didn’t start this.
This was started in 1948 when Palestinians were forced from their homes. Playing a game of “who started it” doesn’t justify anything.
it’s more of an approach where they no longer try as much to limit civilian causalities as much as possible.
Yeah… almost like they are totally OK with killing civilians (genocide).
it’s probably more than 20k. What does it prove though?
See above definition on genocide. If thousands of dead Palestinian civilians (~50% of whom are children) isn’t enough to be labeled as genocide then the definition you are using is a bad one.
Judging which bomb is purposefully thrown on civilians is impossible.
Are you saying that when Israel bombed the Jabalia refugee camp, they were not intentionally killing civilians?

How many Palestinian civilians have been killed?
How many bombs have been intentionally dropped on civilians?
In Israel, citizens are equal. Muslims and others have the same rights as Jews.

It is an ethnostate, by definition it does not treat people equally.
You also conveniently ignored the fact that they are committing genocide.
Ethnostates are inherently immoral, regardless of which race they are. Everyone should be treated equally under the law, regardless of race. Nobody should be a 2nd class citizen, apartheid is immoral.
And that’s all before counting the ongoing genocide.
Have you been living under a rock?
To be completely fair, if they’re in the U.S., the amount of propaganda flying around coupled with the complete lack of history being taught about the issue is more than enough to leave the average person unaware of these genocidal actions.
The difference is, Trump did so for personal political gain. Netanyahu’s government is killing thousands of palestinian civilians, which is genocide. Coercing a foreign nation to stop genociding people is a good thing.
Sweden already has very good public transportation, bike infrastructure, and walkability. So there are plenty of other options. Nobody is going to become more poor over this.
The pollution from fossil fuel cars is a non monetary cost. That cost should not be placed on the shoulders of others.
It’s definitely fucked up. It reminds me of the WKUK breakfast pig sketch.
I suppose it then comes down to whether or not the electricity is free. On a federeration base, I would assume it would be free given that the federation isn’t too big on money.
Though the for the duration of the dominion war I would think there would have been limits.
Given that replicator themselves are resource efficient enough for everyday use, I would think the resource requirements for that would be low enough.
Given that transporters exist, and can be used to target specific materials, I would think that it would indeed be an automated process.
As to why a Scientology-owned group would care about such a matter, 404 Media suggested that it could have to do with Scientology E-meters, or electropsychometers. The Church of Scientology describes the machines as an “electronic instrument that measures mental state and change of state in individuals and assists the precision and speed of auditing” and that only a Scientology minister or training minister should use. 404 Media noted that some people collect the devices and, oddly enough, you can find E-Meters sold on eBay.
“My hunch is that the Scientologists think granting the hacking community permission to dig into their E-Meter software will expose the whole operation as snake oil. The request is like so many other anti-Right to Repair arguments: Manufacturers are afraid that access to repair materials will expose some of their other dirty secrets,” Chamberlain said.
This is what humans have been saying about auto exhaust, factory emissions, agricultural emissions etc for a hundred years. It’s turned out wrong in every way.
There is a key difference, fossil fuel use inherently ends up leaving pollution in the atmosphere, nuclear power does not do anything of the same.
it, isn’t your position basically the same as the right wing position on climate change?
Nope. It’s not even close
That even if it exists humans are too small to actually effect the huge atmosphere so it’s not human caused.
That’s not even close to what I am saying.
All sea water is radioactive already, and has been since before humans got nukes. And thats because all sea water has tritium at low levels. When we release water that is at the same level as sea water, nothing changes.
It’s like adding a red ball or playdoh to a red ball of playdoh. There’s not going to be a difference. Fossil fuels on the other hand would be like adding a black ball of playdoh to a red one.
that would just be high up in that water cycle. In places where private companies would be out of the eyes of watchdog groups
That is not what I am suggesting.
The democrats will just pick another stinker. How do you think we got Biden in the first place?
The two party system needs to be fixed before we will see any actually good candidates.
