Lebanon has a government and an army that is not Hezbollah. They do not want Hezbollah's presence in Lebanon either. Which is why you do not hear the Lebanese government denouncing or opposing Israel's actions. You don't see them going to the UN or the US telling them to stop Israel.
Just because you don't approve of their government and response doesn't mean you can just dismiss it.
Hezbolla is not Lebanon or its government. It's not a declaration of war if the country (its official government) isn't objecting to the entry
Hezbollah has invaded Israel's space with their rockets
If it was possible for terrorists to explode cell phones in the US they would have already done so.
There is no way to distinguish those arguing in good faith vs those who are trolling or arguing in bad faith, because all those parties use the same flawed arguments.
Just assume everyone making those arguments are just Maga trolls trying to siphon votes away from democrats. Saves your sanity
And that's bad because?
Proofreading and editing takes a fraction of the time it takes to generate sincerity from scratch.
If Obama didn't push for ACA, we would not be at this point we are now. Even if he did not succeed to get everyone on board, he moved the needle. The conversion is steering in the right direction.
And like the other replier said, the president sets the guidance for congress and their party. They make it clear what they want to pass and what won't pass, then congress will work towards those goals/ compromises. Ex, If the president clearly indicates she is pro choice, any anti abortion legislation is going to be vetoed so no one is spending political capital trying to push for it, grandstand aside.
The single full time employee is the lead or manager. They have some number of contractors to work with but aren't headcount.
Because there is no discernable difference between you telling an honest story about your Turkish coworkers and a racist using online anonymity to rile people up against minorities.
The entire premise is BS because Biden has a list of accomplishments from infrastructure to debt forgiveness, progressive drug guidance, progress in gender/race equality, departments like the ftc and irs being competently run again with actual resources, to judge appointments. Hmm I wonder to who's benefit it is to ignore all that and label him "not Trump"?
She did not indicate anything of the sort, just that she did not want to take part in it. Beyond that is speculation. She is asking for documentation proving they did not use her voice without permission to train the AI. That's perfectly fair.
I'm differentiating this type of genocide with the type Palestine will undoubtedly perform if the shoe was on the other foot, hence why the issue is not simple.
Lemmy keeps trying to push this idea that if the fighting stopped today and there was a ceasefire or peace, that Oct 7 wouldn't just repeat at a later date. How many decades have we played this same song and yet the small fringe community here wants to pretend it will be different this time?
And no matter how you want to frame that train of thought, or try to label it fascist etc, not agreeing to make peace with Hamas is not the same as condoning genocide. The fringe minority you claim is still in power and they still have hostages. They still enjoy the support of the Palestinians as they did on Oct 7. Hamas made Gaza a war zone, to not be against Israel fighting in said war zone is not supporting genocide.
History.
I would like you to honestly state that you believe Hamas would not delete Israel and all the Jews there if given the chance.
I'm not sure where you see any evidence of Hamas needing to change if they theoretically won the conflict. They absolutely would inflict a genocide of given the chance. To deny this is naive at best but most certainly just dishonest.
And you are implying that Oct 7 was the first act of terrorism committed in this conflict by Palestine.
The complex part is that, if you stop the "genocide", innocent people will still die (Oct 7). And if somehow this side you are protecting wins the conflict or even just gets the upper hand, then there will be a real, old fashioned type of genocide where they won't be swayed by world opinion.
