Honestly, it was probably better than Operation Downfall (invasion of Japan). You’re looking at millions of US casualties and 5-10 million dead Japanese. All the while the Soviets gobble up china and Korea, expanding their empire.

This is a game you should win. I won't be surprised if you demolish us and I would only be a little bit surprised if we beat you. We are probably one of the worst 5-2 teams out there, our run game is atrocious, and our safety position is a MASH unit, but we sometimes play up to the competition and are capable of making things interesting. Slovis can be accurate if we can protect him/give him a little time, but we aren't able to always do that. Our receivers are a talented group, but they can struggle to get open on talented backfields. Who knows which BYU will show up. Our coaching staff knows we will be overmatched, so they will probably take more risks and roll the dice more than they otherwise would.
Your WR’s are in luck, our secondary fucking sucks. You guys don’t really need to run.

It’s all that’s needed. We can’t be neutral.

Over half have a positive view of Hamas. Only half are willing to say that Hamas needs to stop trying to completely destroy Israel. In an election, Hamas would win even though a plurality wants neither.
In nearly any parliamentary system a 34 percent result is a win and you get the first chance to form a government. In 1933, that happened in Germany when the NDSAP won 33 percent.
There are a lot of people getting salty when I point out that the genocidal extremists who quote Protocols of the Elders of Zion and promise to fight corruption poll remarkably similarly to some earlier genocidal extremists who quoted the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and promised to fight corruption.
They will not address this point, but good luck.

I see repetition of the Hamas atrocities or added details about them. This is newsworthy, but is it relevant to the fate of civilians in GAZA? Is the idea that should the right combination of ghoulish cruelty shown by the (seems to me) universally condemned Hamas attack will lead to a, "Well, there it is. That's really bad. Kill them all," moment?
I also don't object to the newsworthiness of other theories regarding the explosion near the Gaza hospital. In fact, those firmly of the belief that the Israelis are not culpable should be pleased with each theory that is later debunked. It strengthens their case. I also see this discussion as irrelelevant to the fate of the civilians in Gaza.
I have no idea what the solution is, nor do I think my lack of solution is relevant to the fate of civilians in Gaza. Why should they pay for lack of imagination on my own and others' parts? Why should they pay for the intransigence of various politcal and state entities?
I will take the stand that I don't want the US backing either side militarily. The plea that Israel must survive sounds kind of absurd when they have a conventional military poised to do whatever they want to Gaza. The question of right to exist does not concern Israel in this moment. It's an old tune that is no longer applicable no matter how moving its melody.
We shouldn't be aiding either Israel or Hamas in this conflict. We've likely sacrificed our key value as a detached broker in the conflict. I would support humanitarion aid for non combatants wherever they are. I would abandon the idea of sending a fucking carrier group to that coast as a show of force against mighty Gaza.
We play this wrong. We stick with cheap theater for the excitable crowd back home. I'm an American and look to American concerns and reputation. I'm moved by the horror of the Hamas attack. I'm not moved to support an exagerrated military response that will bring horrors to a new set of civilians that are no less important to me than Israeli ones.
Israel is not a state in our union. I don't feel like an attack on them is an attack on us. This is action between two foreign parties.
Iran and Russia aid Hamas. Not funding Israel equals genocide.

Again, posting that half of Palestinians polled want Israel eliminated isn’t the best argument.

And holy living fuck if you’re stupid enough to think he’s going to show up to a combine or pro day at 195 lbs. He’ll add 15-20 easy in the months leading up to that
I can show him how to gain weight, I’m really good at it.

Based on the polling, roughly 50%.

And that didn’t go so well. I do not envy the Israelis if/when they move troops into Gaza.
The NVA could at least hightail it to Laos and Cambodia. Hamas is trapped like a rat.

23 minutes ago, 956 Worldwide said:At this point there has been a torrent of evidence showing that the hospital blast was not caused by an Israeli air strike and that although it was a mass casualty event, 500 people are unlikely to have been killed.
The burden should shift now to anyone who wants to claim otherwise to provide something other than the statements of Gaza authorities.
It landed in a parking lot and there’s no crater. There’s no debate anymore.

It doesn’t matter who bombed the hospital anymore, Hamas got what they wanted: violent protests. Well done media, well done.

Except, inexplicitly, last Saturday.
Looks like they got some new sources. Hopefully it extends to hostage locations as well. I’m a little hopeful that since Israel is showing such restraint, Hamas may let them live.
