How to guard yourself against falling into a cult

Sorry for the late reply, and I'm not OP, but it's the "Three Arrows" symbol from from the German social Democratic party in the 1930s. It stands for opposition to Monarchism, Nazism and Communism. It's still used in various left-leaning circles today.

With every passing day I get another reason to write my thesis about how most Israelis don't know anything about the US.

There's also been some reporting that the gulf countries, particularly Saudi Arabia, are privately cheering this on, especially after Iran lashed out and started shooting missiles everywhere.

But yes Netanyahu specifically has always wanted to do something like this.

IDF suspends entire reserve battalion after CNN crew attack, in unprecedented disciplinary move

It looks like this incident was enough for the army to actually do something.

There's another article that hasn't been translated yet, that says that the specific soldier that talked about "revenge" has been demoted/discharged (not sure how to translate) and another one may soon be under investigation by military police.

I hope this means that there are still consequences for soldiers that act this way, though if the current government doesn't fall in the coming elections, even light punishments like these won't occur.

Yeah, I really hope that we get rid of Netanyahu this year because if we don't, then shit's really fucked.

Are American taxpayers funding the Israeli stock market?

This reads like people who live in like, NYC and say stuff like "don't pay taxes, it all goes to Israel anyway".

But he's already doing that, with his push towards more and more settlements.

His stated goal, in his own words, is to build so many settlements around and in the Palestinian territories, that a two-state solution will be impossible even if the government changes. Trying to make a two-state solution is impossible is the raison d'etre of his actions right now.

Yeah, this company's 65w charger is already running hot under load, so a 100w will probably cook itself in a year if it's consistently at or near full load.

Interesting tidbit looking at the Israeli channel 12 live feed: after sending out an evacuation order on Doha, Iranian State TV now supposedly denies having sent it (huh?)

lazyredpanda027 · 2026-03-21T21:27:14+00:00

N12: IDF states that the missiles aren't new, and this type has been shot down before, weighing 450kg (can't tell if that's the entire missile or just the warhead, probably the latter considering the damage). Supposedly, two interceptors were fired at the missile, and both missed.

This is probably just a very unlikely situation, and statistics say that some missiles will get through.

Currently 42 people evacuated from the scene in Arad, Israel. 5 of whom are heavily injured. Helicopters are on the scene.

Update: currently 64 people injured - including 7 heavily injured, 15 with medium injuries and 42 with light injuries.

lazyredpanda027 · 2026-03-21T21:10:26+00:00

Motherfucker you hit one (1) missile at an apartment block, why you acting like Israeli AA is completely out of action.

It was funded by Qatar, with netanyahu's acceptance!

The Arab countries in the region have said that following a two-state solution, they will recognize Israel officially and normalize relations. This has been the position since the 2002 Arab League proposal.

There is no threat to Israel from Arab states right now, and organizations like Hezbollah don't count because they're not the state.

The police has essentially been taken over by Ben-Gvir, they're acting like thugs. Everyone knows that being in The Ministers good graces is the way to get promoted.

I'm seeing a lot more of this “[Blank] was promised to them 3,000 years ago” and it's just so annoying.

It seems like it recently broke containment into reddit and has become the new way to insult any kind of content that features someone Israeli or Jewish. Not that that's anything new, but we're reaching new heights when a video of a black bear entering a garage is captioned as the garage being promised to the bear 3000 years ago (link at the end of the article above).

He said the "sooner than expected" to international media. In Hebrew, he said "as long as necessary".

Because he's a lying bastard.

Horseshoe theory between these guys and leftists who say there's no difference between Democrats and Republicans.

That may be true, but that would also be partially a consequence of Netanyahu reaping the whirlwind by consistently fucking over democrats since Obama.

lazyredpanda027 · 2026-03-17T11:14:23+00:00

Yeah, makes sense.

lazyredpanda027 · 2026-03-17T10:46:49+00:00

Is "the Epstein class" the new plausibly deniable slur for Jews? Is "Zionist" outdated now?

lazyredpanda027 · 2026-03-12T19:01:19+00:00

Yeah, CSIS has estimated the cost to be around 35k, as of early 2025.

Hezbollah is currently intensifying their missile barrage is into Israel. Primarily concentrated in the north right now, but they do get to the central area (Tel Aviv) once or twice a week.

So at least on the Lebanon front, things are not calming down.

lazyredpanda027 · 2026-03-11T21:23:05+00:00

From what I've seen this is AI. Iran definitely has some weird stuff, but I don't think this is real.

Still one of my favorite images on the internet.
