One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn’t belong…
I was expecting the article to provide a little more clarification on that point but I guess they decided to just leave it hanging.
The only good adaptation of Avatar is the Ember Island Players’ version from Book 3.
Few things are more American than sending off massive bombs to be dropped on destitute brown people.
Funny how the Israelis are called “settlers” and the Palestinians are called “terrorists.”
I work 60 hours a week and had to move an hour outside the city to find a townhouse I could afford. And I’m one of the lucky ones.
Yeah but how bout all our Marxist hurricanes that keep hitting the Gulf Coast? Our storms do way more damage than your bourgeois quakes.
Gaza does not have any operational airports, since Israel bombed the control tower at Yasser Arafat airport in 2001 and bulldozed the runway in 2002.
Yeah those 15,000 children the IDF murdered were all completely indiscernable from adults. Couldn’t have been avoided.
It’s a contactual term when you do business with the state. You need to sign a contract attachment confirming that you are not boycotting Israel, and if you violate it then you would be found in breach of contract.
Not all states have it but I’ve seen it repeatedly in my contract work with state governments.
At least he’s honest. More than can be said about most people defending the genocide in Gaza. Most are too ashamed to say outright they don’t see Arabs as human.
Really? But Israel controls the West Bank and…
Oh yeah, that’s right. It’s full of illegal Israeli settlements and displaced Palestinians.
In high school, weed mulch was all we had.
Doctors Without Borders reports that well over a hundred children in Gaza are dying every day. Israel kills more children every week than total civilians died on 10/7.
Hamas’ attack was heinous, but it is not even close to being a justification for killing one in every hundred Gazans and counting. The actions of a terrorist group do not absolve Israel of responsibility in its mass slaughter of children, for which you are a despicable apologist.
That’s exactly how percentages work. The pre-war population of Gaza was 2.3 million. If Israel kills 23,000 Gazans in three months, then that’s 1% of the population.
If Israel kills another 23,000 Gazans in the next three months, that’s another 1% of the pre-war population, and Gaza’s population will now be 98% of the pre-war total. And so on.
If you’re trying to say that percentages can only be calculated in the context of compound rates, then you’re flat-out wrong.
Germany killed 60% of European Jews between 1933 and 1945, which is 5% per year or 1.25% every three months.
Israel has killed 1% of Gaza’s population in three months, and if they maintain current pace will be at 4% per year.
So they’re 80% as efficient if they sustain the current rate. Not a huge discrepancy.
Your math is wrong. Israel has killed 1% of the population of Gaza (23,000 out of an estimated 2.3 million) in under three months. So at the current death rate they would kill the entire population in 12.5 years, not 23.
That’s not what tax deductible means
