By your logic, Israel’s government is just as culpable: https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/
The IDF claims that the children would have been Hamas operatives, on account of who their parents were. It’s not hard to extend that reasoning to the grandchildren. After all, their parents were likely to be Hamas operatives as well.
No judge, no jury, just an executioner, based solely upon the IDFs word that they’re likely to become future terrorists. One might apply that same logic to the whole of Palestine.
No, I think I read you perfectly.
If your society is content with murdering children based on your belief of what they will grow up to be, it’s not a society I’d be comfortable being part of, associating with, or existing alongside.
May you be judged accordingly.
Very much the point. Building a boat is labor intensive. The materials are relatively inexpensive, compared to the time invested in building. The person selling that used Pocketship was likely the builder, and sees value in their time spent building it.
That ~50 year old Westerly? That labor is long gone. The previous owner did invest his time in a partial refit, but relinquished his interest when he stopped paying storage fees and let a lien be placed on it. The club has no time invested, just the lost storage fees, but would rather minimize future loss; an abandoned boat takes up space that would otherwise be generating revenue for them. The club members (nearly all power boaters) see little value in the boat itself. Any revenue gained from scrapping it would likely exceed the cost to scrap the fiberglass hull (again, a labor intensive process).
She really is a cool boat, though. I’m having a great time completing the refit, and I don’t see my labor invested as lost when I’m enjoying the process as much as I am.
Boats are weird. I’ve looked at buying kit from CLC to build a 15’ Pocketship: about $12,000 US. Buying a used one, a couple years old? $15k.
Meanwhile, my local yacht club had a 26’ 1969 Westerly Centaur one step away from being crushed. Prior owner stopped paying storage fees and refused further contact, so the club put a lien on it. I picked it up cheap, $500. Nobody bothered cutting the lock off the companionway; it was chock full of tools and supplies the prior owner was using to refit it.
I’ve dropped some cash into finishing the refit, but nowhere near what I would have spent on a 15’ Pocketship, and I’ve got a much more capable boat. There are deals out there.
Upstate NY is just the cold weather version of the Bible Belt.
Not if it leads to your excuses and justifications of “war was always like this. No need to change it.”
Absolutely disgusting, down to the very core of my being. I want nothing to do with your beliefs.
Be better.
It tastes like sarcasm.
This whole thread is sarcasm, dipped in a whipped sarcasm batter, crusted with crushed sarcasm, then deep fried in a pure sarcastic oil for a sarcastically long time until it’s a nice even color. It’s then drizzled with a sarcastic reduction, and presented on china with a sarcastic pattern with accompanying cutlery.
Gentoo. I’d tell you the version number, but I’m still compiling.
“Chicken on a raft.”
Don’t put words in my mouth.
Israeli says three deaths of their hostages is a tragedy, while thousands of Gaza civilians dying is “tremendously positive.”
I’m pointing out their rampant hypocrisy and blatant disregard for their fellow man… If you believe the same, you’re just as morally and ethically bankrupt.
Three Israeli hostages get killed by IDF forces, that’s a tragedy. Two civilians in Gaza get killed by IDF forces for every Hamas fighter killed? “Regrettable but tremendously positive.”
Having no Hamas present never protected the West Bank from Israeli.
Hamas, the Israeli government, and the IDF are all murderers.
Hamas, the IDF, and the Israeli government. Three groups of murderers and terrorists.
Your projection is showing.
The IDF has a long tradition of using excessive force and not caring about collateral damage and deaths of innocent civilians. I don’t believe that’s changed overnight. https://www.hrw.org/news/2017/06/04/israel-50-years-occupation-abuses
I suppose Hamas was hiding behind this Palestinian, too? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/10/video-appears-show-cheers-israeli-sniper-shoots-palestinian
The way I see it, claiming Hamas is hiding behind citizens is just an excuse for the IDF to murder two Palestinians for every Hamas fighter, without stressing their conscience: https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/05/middleeast/israel-hamas-military-civilian-ratio-killed-intl-hnk/index.html
The blood of innocents is on their hands and people like you, supporting them. Hamas, the IDF, the Israeli government… All murderers or complicit thereof.
If Israeli wasn’t murdering Palestinians regularly, there would be no need for such an app. Imagine that.
