CCP does, the whole tone reeks of authoritarian propaganda on their level (not saying it comes from them, it's just similar).
Also religious freaks do that.

There's a slight difference between:

  • Helping an underdog that got invaded. While the invading force is by the way one of your worst enemies that the sent gear was prepared for anyway.
  • Further financing of a state that already has full capabilities to wipe the floor with a largely irrevelant country.

Nice, you are onto something.

Based on Exit Poll of TVN24 from that time (so not an official gov statistics, I'm not sure if they can release any) in 2019 60.8% of men voted. 61.5% of women.

I absolutely agree that they can (looking only at military capability) wipe the floor with Palestine with indiscriminate bombardment in a few days.

But saying that not using that ability means they do enough to avoid civilian casualties is a pretty big jump in logic.

Military ability isn't everything, geopolitics and market dependance exist. if they actually did that immediately, the response from international community wouldn't be as mild as it's now. So they actually can't.

What I am saying is that there's a full gradient of effort when it comes to avoiding or encouraging civilian casualties (and not giving a damn about them is in the middle).

The voices of Israeli ruling politicians before and after the start of this year's conflict doesn't exactly inspire a confidence that enough is being done to prevent them. Some used strategies even increase them unnecessarily with doubtful military gains.

I don't think that things are black and white here. But I have to agree a little.

Israel did become a nationalistic autocracy and has deeply corrupt leadership. Still, not doing anything when they were attacked on the scale Hamas recently did, would be just stupid.

The problem is that they should have kept the civilian casualties to minimum. Ideally under the amount of Israelis that died tho deflate grudges over time and show some degree of good will.

Then again Hamas has never shown such incentive. And differentiating between Palestine civilians and Hamas collaborators or members is not an easy binary task.

Just in case:

This means a problem with PCIe bus connection. Reseat the unruly card. If problem persists, check for cracks near your PCIe connector.

It might also be an (unlikely) problem with motherboard especially if you scratched it or CPU if you bent some pins.

Why are people so salty about spellcasters? They are so much weaker than melee builds in PvP.

Automakers lobbying and legalized bribery does that for you.

Insurance companies and avoiding to pay what they owe for whatever reason. What an iconic duo.

Just invest money and find some friends instead. Insurance will deny your claim and force you to fight in court or fuck off when you are at your lowest.

In some cases (cough Twitter cough), you can skip the whole software thing and replace the pure silicone of a computer with any slab digged out from the ground.

Pet rock would do less damage for sure.
