  • yeah totally, "shrapnel" from homemade rockets is causing serious injuries. please look away, our Wunderwaffe is totally effective.

    They should fire even more rockets into the sky over the city, that will solve the problem of people being maimed by falling debris.

  • These Hamas anti-tank guys have also been very well instructed and equipped. They're using the right tactics, the right weapons, and hitting the right spots from the right ranges to bypass all layers of defensive systems. It may look chaotic in the videos, but Hamas has properly prepared their tank hunters for their work, and a lot of thought has gone into figuring it out.

  • Israeli infantry are poorly trained conscripts, as are their tankers. Their vanguard troops are told to engage any human target in front of their positions in Gaza, which means the IOF has a persistent friendly fire problem that is mitigated by keeping the infantry to the rear forming a kind of cordon that keeps their bulldozers and engineers safe further behind them.

    The other issue is that the tanks at the tip of the Israeli push will be equipped with Trophy APS - Hamas would fire old obsolete weapons at the tanks from random directions in order to make the tanks unload giant automated anti-rocket shotgun blasts into their infantry escort.

    The tanks are on their own.

  • UK merchant ships continue to do this - same attitudes.

    Working with some organisations, I've even talked to people who remembered the good old post-war days where officers cruised their warships around the crumbling empire; ships running on a class/caste system where your racial inferiors did your laundry and service, and your class inferiors did all the marine work.

    I've even heard of junior officers being punished for doing their own laundry since it breaks down the hierarchy.

  • These weapons are the kind of thing the Ukrainians have developed to "retaliate" against random civilian housing blocks whenever Russia craters a command center. They're basically modern V1/V2 rockets "This will terrify the russian population into submission!!"

  • Why are you linking an actual propaganda thinktank as an example as of Uyghur Genocide?

    You could link any source, but you link one that is staffed by people who's careers have been purely to lie about American's enemies and push American interests?? I hope you're a little sharper than that and you're just linking that because you hope other people will swallow anything.

    "HEY GUYS THIS ORGANIZATION THAT IS PAID TO TELL ME THAT CHINA IS BAD, GET THIS, SAYS CHINA IS BAD!!"

    Come on bud.

  • Hexbear - "that's true, I see how our culture can be hard to decipher"

    Lemmylib - "you guys are huge dicks without provocation"

    Hexbear - oh well fuck you then :)

    Lemmylib - "see, so hostile!"

    If we respond to people being needlessly aggro with quip derision it's "so uncivil!" If we respond to people in good faith by trying to explain our differing views it's "wow im not going to read that!"

    So what should we do?

  • Americans can call the sky green as much as they want. In the rest of the world, Liberalism = Liberalism, not "democrat".

    Liberals are people that believe in liberalism, which can be summed up as "everyone has the individual right to be an asshole, even if it fucks everyone else over".
