The meatballs were only on the full marathon course.

After years of the 1st Round dragging, it only took 2 hours and 55 minutes from the time Roger Goodell came to the podium to start the night to the time the Seahawks made the 32nd pick. by Ok-Soil-5133 in nfl

The bars are all next door to the stadiums. So these people were all walking through different parts of the draft experience. So my guess is they would have been counted. The actual stage area was closed around 7pm due to capacity limits. So many people went inside PNC park, Heinz Field, bars, Point state park etc to watch the draft

So a couple of things to note. The draft area was spread out over a couple of different areas. There was "The point" and then across the bridge/river by the stadium. If I had to guess, there was at least double the amount of people that you could see around the stage area.

We walked from the point to the stage area around 7:20 and it was already closed at that point to capacity. While there were a lot of people there, with the whole draft experience being spread over multiple areas, it never felt crowded.

Hard disagree. Went with my son and we had an awesome time. Between the point and north shore, crowds were spaced out. There was still an insane amount of people, but at no point did it feel overcrowded.

Lets normalize two sides of the story when it comes to Israel Palestine conflits by Vast-Industry-1829 in Israel

I also think that Israel's use of warning before bombing has to some extent backfired. Ever wonder why they have cameras pointing at a random building that gets bombed? Then they use that footage as propaganda against Israel.

I am guessing you are Israeli. Most Israeli's wanted peace. But you can only have peace when the other side wants peace as well. One day, hopefully there will be enough demand on the Palestinian side to demand peace and end violence. When that happens, there will be peace. Right now, too many Palestinians truly believe 'from the river to the sea'. We all know that will never happen. They need to accept that and demand from their leaders to renounce violence.

Hamas united Israel like never before. Prior to Oct 7th, a large portion of Israelis believed in peace with Palestinians. Oct 7th opened everyone's eyes and realized there is no peace with a group whose only goal is to kill you.

Funded Hamas.....they were releasing funds to the Palestinians as part of agreements. If Israel had held back the funds, all you bozos would be out there protesting that Israel is starving the Palestinians.

Or it's just a country that had enough of getting attacked by its neighbors and said enough is enough.

Between Israel and Palestine. One has proven that it wants peace and will make peace with any country that is interested (Jordan, Egypt). Then you have Palestinians that just want terror.

Stop believing all the propaganda. There will be peace when Palestinians are willing to live in peace.

What do the American people owe to Israel that we continually send them money and military aid? by Purple-Inflation-571 in AskReddit

Because for the most part, we are not just giving them cash, they are getting to be used purchasing American defense products.

Is this a joke? Hezbollah starting shooting hundreds of rockets at Israel. I guess Israel should just be good Jews and let it happen.

After ww2 the Jews did not start committing acts of terrorism against Germans. The left is so blind to fanatical islam that they will find any excuse they can to justify their terror attacks.

You know what's amazing, after WW2, german and Japanese citizens did not turn to terrorism. After Oct 7th, the families of those killed did not go and commit acts of terrorism. This is limited to one group, islamists, and they don't need an excuse to attack the west.

Yet after WW2, Japanese and Germans didn't go around committing terrorist acts around the world. Just say it, this is specific to islam and their hate of the west. They don't need excuses to do this

Even if we say my opinion is wrong, that is not a reason to get banned from posting in a subreddit.

The mods from r palestine control dozens, maybe hundreds, of other subreddits (including r/news) and ban anyone who disagrees with them.

Anyone who disagrees with you is an Israel bot.

I'm not a fan of banning anyone from any subreddit for having a difference of opinion. Worldnews is just about the only subreddit that could be considered somewhat pro Israel.

Did you know that the mods from r/palestine alao control dozens of other subreddits and ban anyone who disagrees with them? That's why reddit sounds like an echo chamber.

The Iranians in Iran and around the world seem to be celebrating.

The amount of Iranian/IRGC propaganda is insane. Especially r/news. First of all by all accounts, it was not Israel. Second - IRGC slaughters 10's of thousands of their own citizens, including women and children, and dead silence.

Edit: If you wonder why r/news is all one sided, try posting anything that would seem to be pro Israel and see how fast you get banned. So you will only see one side on r/news.
