Basically, Israel wants the land that Gaza (and West bank) sit on, and wants the Palestinians that are there right now either gone, or dead.

If this is true, why did Israel give Gaza to the Palestinians, forcibly removing Israelis, in 2005? Wouldn't it have been easier to keep it than to give it away and go to war to take it back?

If Israel just wants everyone gone or dead, why didn't they just bomb Gaza flat? Why do they bother "roof-knocking", setting up evacuation corridors, and sending their own troops into harm's way?

Is it a coincidence that Israel was in a cease-fire on October 6, only going to war after Hamas committed an act of war (killing over 1100 people, wounding many more, and taking 253 hostages)?

When the goal is to remove a population from an area, the more children that are killed, the closer you are to your ultimate goal. Going after the terrorist merely gives legitimacy to your attacks against the population as a whole.

That being said, both sides are trying to eliminate the other. I have no sympathy for the goals of either side.

Why ask a question like that unless you plan on eliminating them if they are a net minus? Perhaps your world view needs to be expanded?

LOL, no. They are to be the servants. They aren't worth shit and are disposable. They should have no rights and should be escorted from society as soon as possible. This is accomplished by paying them a wage less than what is needed in order to acquire food and shelter so that the problem takes care of itself.

(this sounds suspiciously like eugenics, of which Ford and Hitler were huge advocates)

They could always build nuclear power plants and have more electricity than we could ever productively use... but nah. Let's burn some more coal.

Sure, but for the average person, they will still lose more than they are now. It is GREAT that all this new value is being generated. Why are we generating it though? "We" don't see any benefits to it and in fact, are losing benefits faster than we are gaining them.

Dude, I do not know what your experiences are, but in my experiences, the economy has been in an almost free-fall for 50 years for the regular person.

There is unimaginable wealth within America... and yet, it has become MUCH harder for someone just starting out. I started out at $3.35/hr 4 decades ago. Today, someone starts out at $7.25/hr. Rent was around $300/month, now it is over $1,000/month.

So pay doubled but expenses tripled. This is *NOT* survivable.

The Jack Welch school of socioeconomic theory must be stopped NOW. I have had many friends die over the years. A little relief from the obscene demands of the economy would have saved them... but no. Their deaths were necessary for Capitalism to act as a social system.

So they can go back to getting their houses and land taken from them one by one? I do not think you understand how serious this combat is. Both sides are fighting for the right to exist as the other side would wipe them completely off the map if they could. There can be no surrender until both sides agree to the existence of the other.

This conflict has been going on longer than I have been alive. Both sides are irretrievably evil. This kind of, loosely, reminds me of Democrats vs Republicans.

Hopefully it's got that stupid-ass pinch-zoom-unzoom mechanic which makes insta so insta

So, he can't handle the truth?

At launch it was the most expensive stock to short on the whole market. One of the fin sites did a cost breakdown.

I like their business model but wow, the claws EU allowed Apple to have are quite something.

Hopefully businesses can offer different versions of their app to each set of 999,999 customers Especially hobby projects.

Some military guys project AI could be more deadly than nukes.

And we're trusting Zuck with it.

I wasn't trying to take away from your discussion. I was trying to add to it. Some people may read what you wrote and assume all batteries have 1,000 charge cycles in them. Some have more, some have less. That is all.

If the shoe fits, wear it. I am guessing it does not fit, so why are you concerned about an if statement used to fully cover a point?

The only real question here is how to deal with it. Many people use racism or other divisive ideas to "deal" with this and that results in lots of unnecessarily dead people along with infinite amounts of misery.

TL;DR, how do we bring them back into the fold? (hint: it begins with basic respect of an individual (without tolerance for nonsense))
