I will do the proportions as soon as I find more sources on what is the median age of hamas member. Maybe you have some data on that?

Yes, conclude the obvious, keep citing hamas and compare apples to oranges if that makes you feel righteous.

High-end estimate for Gaza (provided by hamas, a well known terrorist group): 64 000. High-end for Mariupol (provided by Uppsala Conflict Data Program): 88 000. When comparing numbers one should also compare high-end estimates vs. high-end

Mariupol.

Sorry, but moderators of this forum threaten to ban me if I keep commenting on political topics. So I can't respond to your comment where you provide "non hamas sources".

I do comment here primarily when I see kremlin's (or iran/hamas) propaganda and lies. That is true. I do understand that it's your forum and your rules. I will try to abide by them. I hope one day we shall meet in the place w

Can you provide any source for that, which is not hamas?

So is Ukraine committing genocide on russians? The intent needs to be there too. Otherwise it's just a war.

It wasn't. But, if you look at it, history is on the side of Israel. I don't recall any terrorist attacks done by Israel, but I do recall at least a dozen done by hamas. Also, there were 0 (zero) jews in Gaza for the last 20 years

> Only a tiny percentage of whom were involved in the Hamas atrocity It's not a tiny percentage. It's the majority. That's how autocracies stay in power.

> Israel's intended end game seem to be to make Gaza completely uninhabitable, so that the Palestinians are forced to leave In a context where hamas declared (multiple times) that they will repeat October 7 forever, how is this a ba

Yes, it's a very similar situation. Both Russia and Gaza are ruled by criminal autocracy. In russia it's mafia style autocracy, in Gaza - terrorism and religious fanaticism. Both Russia and Gaza have their population under control

War crimes and genocide are not the same thing.

Imagine you're the leader of Israel. October 7 happens. And there's a multiple declarations from hamas, that they will repeat it forever, given a chance. What do you do?

Ukraine is bombing Russia. Should we start listening to what russians have to say now? Losing a war you started doesn't make you a victim.

I didn't say all. I said many.

> What is the difference? Maybe the difference is the fact that russia invaded Ukraine and is murdering, raping and pillaging there? Or maybe the fact that most of russian society is actively supporting that invasion? But those are just

Should we fund/send aid for russia too? Since, you know, russian army is not the same as russian people. Or maybe we should lift sanctions off russia? I have a hunch a lot of pro-hamas people would love that.

No, they mean that Israel left infrastructure behind. They mean exactly what they say.

> The US has provided more funding to Ukraine than the world combined by a large margin This is not true for some time now. First google result (but there are more charts, numbers and sources): https://www.ifw-kiel.de/top

Nothing, because I was not replying to that. I was replying to the statement that "rape has not been proved" and everyone stating otherwise should "watch their language".

Do you like that "vertical balance" or is it just something you "fell into"?

by egisspegis 5y ago
I'm sure they will when US starts carpet bombing Canada's cities.

That's a nice place to work in! How was this company doing? Would it be doing better just shipping "if it makes money - it's good enough" code?

I've clicked the link out of curiosity. Ended up chatting with one of the listeners for 2 hours... Well, actually almost all the chatting was done by me, listener was...listening. :) Man, it feels good to spill it out! Great service, t
