That's basically the non-aligned movement, which... Uh... Didn't work out very well last time.

I mean yes, but this ruling is fhat they can't do either. Since these regions are illegally occupied, their inhabitants have the right to resist said occupation and, therefore Israel doesn't have the right to defend itself in the same way it would against an independent country.

Theta prime moment.

I mean knowledge yes, money no (or at least not compared to a conventional army), and most knowledge can be obtained through the internet or people who support your cause (if you don't have a reasonably popular cause you can't create a grassroot paramilitary organization). Also remember that some of the bigger paramilitary organizations usually considered terrorists (I personally don't like the term as I think it's been corrupted beyond saving by Western politicians and media) control land the size of a small country, for example some of the ISIS branch organizations. Other than that some have state backers (see Qatar, Iran and the US) or gain money through people who support their cause or some kind of business activity (the Taliban sell cocaine for example). Hamas is a good example, and in their particular case the money mostly comes from taxes in the Gaza strip, Qatari and Iranian support and money sent by individuals from abroad (usually by Palestinians).

TL;DR: Paramilitary organizations usually don't need as much money as conventional states, and have ways to get it. Add in a sympathetic cause and it's doable.

Why do people care so much about this? Like seriously this is the thing you go to court over?

I mean gang violence is usually not a grand spectacle event, so it has nothing to do with the text you're quoted.

No? The conversation was (and still is) centered around school shootings.

Why aren't the protesters calling for Hamas to release the hostages if they really want an end to the war?

Because that was never the point, maybe? Where did you even get the idea the war would end if Hamas releases the hostages? Have you been living with us this past year? Were you keeping up with the ridiculous number of ceasefire deals Israel sabotaged?

Uh... This is the result of a land reclamation project that's been in place for more than 15 years and not at all the result in "a shift in the weather".

I mean nobody was talking about gang violence here.

This is a... Unique way of thinking about this. I'll preface all of this by saying: Get therapy, or at least talk to people. Seriously. Feeling that every day is agony and hating your parents for giving birth to you clearly means you're hurting somewhere. There is absolutely no need for that to be your normal.

how much better that would be for everybody.

Uh... Why are you talking like you're the antichrist or something? In all likelihood you're a mildly good person in the eyes of some people and a mildly bad person in the eyes of others. I mean you know yourself better than I do, but stop for a minute and think whether the dramatic statement of "how much better that would be for everybody" makes sense.

It just frustrates me that something SO SIMPLE could have saved me 41 years of daily agony.

I know that this is the product of deeper mental health issues, but I'll just point out that you're doing the same thing your mother did; only in your case it's your life instead of Phil Hartman. I mean 41 years? Yeah you probably weren't in agony before gaining object permanence, and definitely not every single day of your life. Just because things are hard now doesn't mean you have to reject happiness you had in the past.

Either way it is an incredibly bad sign for the most powerful person in the country to be taking huge bribes from foreign nations (or anyone for that matter.)

I... Don't think I ever implied otherwise?

Oh I see. That makes a lot of sense.

Are you being obtuse or looking for something to get mad at?

"So what if he accepted 10 million dollars from Egypt while he was president. What does Egypt have to gain?"

That... Is not what I said. I'm wondering, if Egypt if the money came from Egyp, why they felt it necessary to do this. What is/was the return Egypt got from this deal? I'm not aware of any notable changes in Egypt-US relations during Trump's term.

I get that the AIPAC abuses loopholes to avoid breaking US law while handing over bribes, but still it's funny that they're this mad when it's not Israel. Also if he indeed got the money from Egypt, what does/did the Egyptian government even have to gain from Trump as president?

How does that even work?

Their propaganda, lies and weapons to Israel will forever be a deep moral stain on the West.

I mean add it to the pile but yes.

0 years is the maximum timeline for vigilantism.

I mean... some people just deal worse with food in many ways. You can give three children the exact same food and they'll all end up with different amounts of body fat.

What the fuck? They can just... do that? Literally some third world countries are better at protecting their citizens than this (not mine though).
