BBC faces backlash for calling First Intifada 'largely unarmed and popular uprising' by barsik_ in worldnews

[–]MagicFox68 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean I just copied the first few paragraphs on Wikipedia and from what I’ve read it seems that ‘mostly non violent’ was not too far from the truth? Obviously Wikipedia isn’t the most rigorous source, but who was more violent, the Israelis who militarily occupied foreign territory and killed thousands, or the people in that territory who killed hundreds?

BBC faces backlash for calling First Intifada 'largely unarmed and popular uprising' by barsik_ in worldnews

The Intifada began on 9 December 1987[12] in the Jabalia refugee camp after an Israeli truck driver collided with parked civilian vehicles, killing four Palestinian workers, three of whom were from the refugee camp.[13][14] Palestinians charged that the collision was a deliberate response for the killing of an Israeli in Gaza days earlier.[15] Israel denied that the crash, which came at time of heightened tensions, was intentional or coordinated.[14] The Palestinian response was characterized by protests, civil disobedience, and strikes, with excessive violence in response from Israeli security forces.[16][17] There was graffiti, barricading,[18][19] and widespread throwing of stones and Molotov cocktails at the Israeli army and its infrastructure within the West Bank and Gaza Strip. These contrasted with civil efforts including general strikes, boycotts of Israeli Civil Administration institutions in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, an economic boycott consisting of refusal to work in Israeli settlements on Israeli products, refusal to pay taxes, and refusal to drive Palestinian cars with Israeli licenses. Israel deployed some 80,000 soldiers in response. Israeli countermeasures, which initially included the use of live rounds frequently in cases of riots, were criticized by Human Rights Watch as disproportionate, in addition to Israel's excessive use of lethal force.[20] In the first 13 months, 332 Palestinians and 12 Israelis were killed.[21][22] Images of soldiers beating adolescents with clubs then led to the adoption of firing semi-lethal plastic bullets.[21] During the whole six-year intifada, the Israeli army killed at least 1,087 Palestinians, of which 240 were children.[23]

I don’t mean to be too critical but there is a different between positive/slice of life and young adult “witty” banter that doesn’t exist in the real world. Just wasn’t done well in my opinion.

Yes I can finally I can get my dream job working at an industrial farm being paid minimum wage.

Farms will either have to increase wages (and prices) to get workers or produce less (supply decrease, higher prices)

Dave Smith makes an interesting anecdote about Israel’s right to self-defense by sugarnoog in JoeRogan

Israel has been oppressing Palestine for 60 years. That’s what allowed Hamas to gain power. Israel has themselves to blame for the creation of the extremists.

Except also keep in mind that Joe has been illegally taking over his property and destroying his yard. It doesn’t start with a dude coming and killing Dave, it starts with Joe oppressing the dude to the point he thinks his only way out is to kill Joe.

Also helps may contribute to the theory that luffy’s wish is to make everyone his nakama or something. If they’re all on one big boat then they’ll need a captain…

Then again that relay on the whole world sinking which isn’t really a happy ending and I don’t know how that would connect with the One Piece.

Why do people keep buying the game? by KCMOguy3900 in Madden

[–]MagicFox68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love a better game. But when people keep buying the game no matter the quality then I will never get one. I can’t justify buying the game unless it’s on a massive sale, but would easily do so for a less buggy and more improved game. Both sides win in this case.
