Foreign Affairs › Re: Pictures Of The Children Who Were Killed In The Attack By Hezbollah Hours Ago. by GentleRay: 12:21pm On Jul 28, 2024
Is Ipob a terrorists group? Israel has killed more babies than Hamas. Why bomb indiscriminately if the intention is to take out Hamas, however, isreal had not defeated hamas yet even with the mass booming. Hostage are still in capitivity.
Botragelad:
Israel's objective(s) is clear: to neutralize Hamas' military capabilities without harming civilians. Hamas' use of children as human shields is a war crime in the first place. Israel on the other hand takes unprecedented precautions to minimize civilian casualties, even at the risk of its own military advantage.

The responsibility for harm to children lies solely with Hamas. And let's be clear, your attempt to equate Israel with Hezbollah is baseless. Israel does not exploit children or target civilians, unlike Hezbollah's/ Hamas consistent pattern of terror.

Back to the conversation, it's either you didn't read my post or you're failing to grasp the points I made. I'm interested in having a smart conversation. I asked clear questions, but you're not providing any answers.

Let me ask again: what makes a soccer field a valid target? Were there IDF soldiers hiding behind the kids? Simple questions demand straightforward answers.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Pictures Of The Children Who Were Killed In The Attack By Hezbollah Hours Ago. by GentleRay: 12:14pm On Jul 28, 2024
Target Hamas, why target Childrens? Hypocrate
Botragelad:
Let me set the record straight. Israel typically warns civilians of impending strikes by distributing leaflets and designating safe zones. The targeted location was a known terrorist hideout.

The real question is, why does Hamas use children as human shields for their nefarious activities? Why do they launch rockets from schools? I expect rational individuals to think critically. Israel's strike targeted Hamas, but they cynically exploit children for propaganda. It was a legitimate military target!

Now, applying the same logic to Hezbollah's strike: did they issue warnings to Israel before attacking? How can a soccer field be considered a military target? Were there any IDF soldiers present? If you're going to target someone, target the soldiers, right? At least that's your greatest fear! Israel could have randomly targeted Lebanese civilians, but instead, they precision-target terrorists. Why doesn't Hezbollah do the same? It's clear that Israel is the only side following the rules, while terrorists deliberately target civilians. Wait for Israel's response. 🇮🇱

Dont talk trash. She is full time on ground. That is my department and university. She supervised 2 of my course mate thesis.
Kaa4:
Is it by number of years now? Something is obviously wrong here. Firstly, it's being due two years back. Secondly, is she at work presently? Thirdly, a subtle blackmail for professorship.

Professor should be made on the basis academic output which should in some form of service so recognised.

This charade should stop.

Being the First Lady is a qualification?

Foreign Affairs › Re: More Pictures from Al Shifa Hospital As IDF Pulls Out ( Photos) by GentleRay: 2:12pm On Apr 01, 2024
Big lies! You mean no single civilians were killed including babies. How come the numbers are round-up figures?
Holiness2100:
During the IDF’s operation against terrorist operatives hiding in Gaza’s Shifa Medical Hospital:


➡️ 6,000 civilians were safely evacuated
➡️ 200 terrorists were killed
➡️ 500 terrorists were arrested


And most importantly ➡️ ZERO civilians were killed.

Hamas chose the hospital so it could use the staff and patients as human shields. While they endangered Palestinian civilians, Israel took great care to keep them safe. And succeeded.

A truly remarkable success ( Zero civilian casulty) from the IDF unfortunately you may not see this in the mainstream press.

Business › Re: CBN Lifts FX Restrictions On Milk, Dairy Products Import To Crash Prices by GentleRay: 4:33pm On Mar 20, 2024
Major problem had been solved, arbitrage. Prices wouldnt crash just yet. Local production will do just that.
Taich:
Can someone explain to me how this will lead to the crash in price of diary products? Lifting ban by CBN means that diary importers can approach the bank for FX, banks will sale FX to importer at bank/black market rate. If importers have been importing since 2020 using parallel market when it would have been cheaper using banks why will price crash now the the bank and parallel rates are same? I will love to be schooled. Thanks in advance.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Putin Warns NATO Of World War III by GentleRay: 1:45pm On Mar 19, 2024
Forget the rhetoric, NATO was created to defend the European countries after WW2. So far, how are the European countries faring now? Economic stagnation, unrest, they cant afford increasing their defence budget. Political unrest in US, UK heading towards recession. Russia has done will economically even with the Western sanctions. They've lost their face in Africa. If WW3 happens today the table will turn against the West, US will lose its hegemony. Learn bro!

Foreign Affairs › Re: Putin Warns NATO Of World War III by GentleRay: 12:44pm On Mar 19, 2024
You people are ignorant. Are you aware that China has also threatened if NATO attack Russia they will respond militarily? Europe is too small to withstand a world with Russia. NATO have lost credibility even in their own countries. They have soldiers who never tasted war before.
HardBishop:
If any venture he spill that his SARMAT NUKE on any NATO counties, the worst devastation will come on RUSSIA.
Will the lives of his Russian spared?
Can his country withstand the terrible attack or invasion from 32 NATO countries? Can he?
This man should just shut up.
