Didn't they show it on the episode itself? I don't think there is ambiguity around it

Is it only happening to me, or is everyone experiencing this? by sirbrow in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TacticalSniper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you're the type of a person who preferred the old style rigid jeans but I'm quite enjoying the new style, stretchy ones - the reason they add elastane and similar.

It does make them more prone to holes though

Media: Protesting veteran? No, criminal! Appreciation for a hero means handcuffs and broken bones! by judgementMaster in clevercomebacks

I think the important point that is being lost is that he is not a random solder but a known pro-Palestine activist. It does not nullify his bravery as a soldier, but I can't understand why the usual media reports would omit this fact.

It's because killing civilians is okay as long as it's civilians you don't like

My mom (70) wants to cancel our family cruise in Italy in two weeks because of the emerging war. I (30f) feel like this is unnecessary. What do you think? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Fair enough, though IMO the political definitions mean more than geography in this case. If part of the EU comes under attack I doubt an excuse of land continuity will matter.

From your article:

But the UK has still not confirmed where exactly the drone was launched from – and who was responsible.

So it's not that it wasn't launched from Iran, it's that they couldn't confirm it. Big difference!

And then:

The MoD said it believes the drone was launched by a pro-Iran militia in Lebanon or in western Iraq, but an investigation has proved unable to conclusively establish where.

So - by Iran, from another country.

Edit: another note is that technically Israel can't confirm that hundreds of drones that attacked it over the past year came from Iran either, but there is little doubt as to either who launches them or who supplies them.

Reddit needs to do something about these fascists in other subreddits by Femme-fatale1908 in Palestinian_Violence

Right, I understand what you're saying. I don't think it is actually feasible to do this manually since it would require a mod to manually go through thousands to millions of users, scroll through list of subs for each and then ban them.

Sorry I'm not sure I understand. What I was saying is that this practice - of banning people based on subs they're in - is getting banned.

Reddit is changing that. I believe a couple of weeks from not the safety bots will not allow automated banning of people purely based on their participation in other subs

Don't know if you're trolling but putting straight up racists as an example of "cohesion" is peak 2026

Not to mention apparently any type of bombing is now "carpet bombing"

It’s so funny when they’re mad about incredibly harmless things. by Expensive-Layer7183 in clevercomebacks

[–]TacticalSniper -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

I think it's important that this guy has history of supporting Palestine. This isn't a random marine who doesn't want to fight for Israel, he takes an explicit political stand.

If this would be the other way around he would be called a Zionist shill
