    Trump lashes out at Israel: "They don't know what the ....<heck>... they're doing"

    Looking back at the past 12 days it seems that Israel knows exactly what they are doing. It was a master class in defeating a country 75 times your size. Unfortunately, Trump still doesn't understand the motivations and desires of the Islamic Regime, as demonstrated by his statement that he...

    Why does Iran hate Israel?

    The desire of the Islamic regime in Iran to wipe Israel off the map is based on their understanding of Shia Islam. The reason the regime's army calls themselves "revolutionary" (the R in IRGC) is because the 1979 revolution wasn't the end - it was the beginning of the revolution. Conquering Iran...

    IDF says aircraft operating in heart of Tehran, denies claim Iran shot down fighter, IDF has full freedom of operation over Tehran

    From what I understand, that is physically impossible. Reaching the underground facilities in Fordow and Natanz allegedly requires the 30,000 pound bunker busters of the US, and even if Israel had this type of munition they couldn't drop it on Iran's nuclear facilities because none of the...

    Kinder Eggs are illegal in the US

    To avoid confusion it would be more accurate to say "Kinder Surprise Eggs are illegal in the US". The one that is found in the US are Kinder Joy Eggs. Kinder Joy Eggs were not designed for the US market specifically. They were sold in Europe since 2001 already but only reached the US market in 2018.

    UK suspends free trade talks with Israel and announces sanctions over West Bank settlers; Gaza blockade is "cruel and indefensible"

    Right, a Palestinian just found old footage on his phone in which he addresses the claims of hunger in Gaza (which wasn't a thing years ago) and decides to publish it in exactly the moment when the pressure on Israel because of food is mounting. Or maybe it's just the obvious and he recorded a...

    UK suspends free trade talks with Israel and announces sanctions over West Bank settlers; Gaza blockade is "cruel and indefensible"

    Published by a Palestinian on Facebook on 13 May, 2025. I can't look up the original post because I don't have Facebook, but others have reported on it as well. Memri is simply translating Arab media into English. Others have reported on this new footage of the Gaza market even before Memri...

    UK suspends free trade talks with Israel and announces sanctions over West Bank settlers; Gaza blockade is "cruel and indefensible"

    The UN warned about imminent starvation more than a year ago, and it never materialized. There won't be 14,000 babies dying within the next 48 hours, but the UN will keep crying wolf. This is what Gaza looks like right now, video published by a Palestinian in Gaza:

    IDF kill Red Cross workers in Gaza

    "Justification" wasn't mentioned anywhere in my post. I just exposed the lie of a "genocide" happening in Gaza. Most of the time the population decreases in war time even if no genocide occurs, for it to be a genocide the population would have to decrease drastically. You'll be hard pressed to...

    IDF kill Red Cross workers in Gaza

    Now even the Palestinians are admitting that the Gazan population hasn't actually decreased during the war, making this the first "genocide" in history in which the population remained the same. In the words of Hamas leader Sami Abu Zuhri: Source With that they are not only admitting that...

    Eurovision, Israel wins popular vote

    Switzerland got the 2nd most points from the jury, so I expected the song to be pretty decent (I didn't actually listen to it). When they received zero points from the popular vote, I thought it must be a technical error, haha!

    Democrat prosecutor gives Illegal migrant, 15, probation after killing Colorado rehab worker, 24, in high-speed crash

    Well, he drove twice the speed limit - without even having a licence. How is that reason for a light sentence? Over here in Central Europe, juveniles face up to 10 years in prison for negligent homicide alone. When you add the speeding and the lack of a driver's licence to that... If probation...

    IDF kill Red Cross workers in Gaza

    We have no idea what the number includes, because Hamas doesn't provide evidence for anything and neither the UN nor anyone else has been able to verify these numbers independently. What we do know is that after Hamas recently removed 3,400 names from its fatalities list (including more than...

    IDF kill Red Cross workers in Gaza

    Again, comparing the war in Ukraine with the war in Gaza is just a distraction and doesn't add anything meaningful to the conversation. Israel is winning on all fronts, fighting an insurgency, while Ukraine is the underdog that only survives because of 100% Western money and equipment, fighting...

    IDF kill Red Cross workers in Gaza

    Comparing the war in Ukraine with the war in Gaza, and the US reaction to it, is farther away than apples and oranges. Not only does the US have a very different relationship with these two countries (a decades-long close partnership with Israel as opposed to virtually no connection to Ukraine)...

    IDF kill Red Cross workers in Gaza

    I actually directly addressed your post #118, where you claimed that 52,000 fatalities are "a large number" and that the "unspoken assumption" would be "that Palestinian lives don't matter". So I showed that anything below 80,000 fatalities is actually statistically LOW for this war, and that...
