The Numidians were probably not at all sub-Saharan. From what little is known about their language, it appears to have been closest to the Northern Berber Languages. Except along the Nile Valley, it...
The age of criminal responsibility under Israeli civil law is 12, although minors can’t be imprisoned prior to age 14. That has always been case, as far a I know. It used to be that minors couldn’t...
I’m not familiar with the particular case, but he was almost certainly being held in administrative detention:
Israeli security services claim this procedure is primarily used when the evidence...
Nobody really invented this, at least not any journalist. As far as I can tell, it was like the telephone game. Nicole Zedek from i24 said in a live broadcast, “Talking to some of the soldiers here,...
It seems you’re still incapable of properly using the quote function in order to provide the original context. If it’s too technically demanding for you, you could at least provide a link. Perhaps if...
Reality is an insult to the Palestinians. They achieve nothing because the vast majority of them persist in the delusion that they can defeat Israel. If they had ever been willing to compromise based...
Some of those questions are so far outside the Overton Window in Israeli society that almost no one would publicly admit to having such views even if they did. For example, I believe Ben Gvir...
In the poll, the top explanations given by Gazans for the October 7th operation are:
35.4% Stop the violations of Aqsa
24.9% To Free Palestine
17.7% Breaking the siege on the Gaza Strip
That...
This is nonsense of course. The first war didn’t end until 1949, and:
You’re also ignoring how the 1967 war started. Egypt expelled the UN peace keeping force, massed troops on the border, and...
Personally, I think Sasour did mean (((they)))/(((them))) rather than just they/them.
Well, that is pretty cringe, but it does say “The Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood 7/10/2023” at the top.
If Israel doesn’t destroy the rockets, the Iron Dome will be overwhelmed and/or run out interceptors, and the Iron Dome costs $100,000–150,000 per interception. The alternative is to simply allow...
Well, that’s partially due to the taxes you pay. Every time Hamas or PIJ start a conflict that results in the inevitable destruction of Gaza, the so-called “international community” donates money to...
You mentioned their 2017 charter as evidence and spoke in present tense relatively recently, so no, it obviously wasn’t just that.
Now you’re claiming that it’s far-fetched that Netanyahu would...
True, that’s been your argument ad nauseam, not his:
The earliest morphologically domestic emmer and barley date to ~10,350–10,050 years ago. Both were found in the Levant. Ancient chickpeas and lentils are more difficult to identify as morphologically...
The megalithic architecture at Göbekli Tepe has been C-14 dated to ~9,000–8,000 BCE using matter sealed in the lime plaster/mortar used for floors, so beginning ~11,000 years ago. This would be...
If that’s the case, then it is no doubt by design. The IDF is still pushing for the hospital to evacuate and doesn’t want any fuel to be seized by Hamas. The hospital was warned to evacuate over 4...
Regarding the Shifa hospital:
The IDF posted on Telegram November 12th:
Clips from interrogation videos of Hamas operatives regarding the hospital and use of ambulances:

Well, in the case you presented, the excavation was funded by Trinity Southwest University (an unaccredited evangelical Christian institution), Veritas International University (formerly Veritas...
This is an allegation (with some degree of merit) also made against Netanyahu in the context of Israeli politics, but to be fair, Hamas had already long since come to power and eliminated the...
In addition to sorting out your tense issues, you might want to look up the word “siege”.
A map of the situation as of November 6th:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F-SEoxEXcAAtGnR?format=jpg&name=4096x4096Israeli progress since then has been deliberately slow. Northern Gaza is cut off...
Yesterday, Haaretz published an opinion piece written by their journalist Amir Tibon regarding the war in Gaza. Haaretz is representative of the far left in Israel. Its editorial stance is generally...
According to the UN, the hospitals were going to run out of fuel within a few hours because Israel isn’t allowing any in. Israel still hasn’t allowed any in, yet 21 days later, the hospitals still...
This makes no difference. Even if 100% of Palestinians supported Hamas, it would still not be permissible to deliberately target Palestinian civilians under international law. However, the presence...
They should really evacuate Al-Shifa hospital as they were warned to do so three weeks ago. It’s not as if the IDF is going to ignore the Hamas infrastructure underneath it. Especially considering...
There is a 2007 article about the Hamas takeover of the medical system in the peer-reviewed British Medical Journal. The current director is Medhat Abas mentioned in that article:
As I understand...
As an American who remembers 9/11 well, who was also in Israel on October 7th and has been since, I think the comparison between the two significantly underestimates the relative scale of the tragedy...
Something remarkable about confirmed Palestinian "civilian" casualties from the 2014 war is that they are 79.7% male and 53.8% males ages 16 to 35, that is the age of most Hamas militants.

[/QUOTE]The conspiracy theory you’ve been promoting is that Israel deliberately allowed the October 7th Hamas attack to happen as an excuse to justify a takeover of Gaza. That some in the Netanyahu...
I was responding to a post that was presenting her as offering some sort of wisdom on the issue. I thought that was obvious since I used the “reply” feature.
Although, I didn't say she is stupid....
You missed the point from the beginning. Her takes are stupid, even in the feeble way you’ve tried to frame them. That she’s also (or at least has been) a Hamas apologist is just what you latched...
If this video is authentic, then a Merkava tank was spotted here:
https://i.postimg.cc/Mp0HYXFp/Merkava.pngWhich supports the hypothesis I previously forwarded regarding Israel’s plan.
She was supporting (or at least characterizing as allies) a terrorist group that had just killed hundreds of civilians, unless you think there should be an extremely short statute of limitations on...
The context makes her no less of a naďve fool than Chomsky was when he argued that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict could be resolved based on the model of Lebanon or Yugoslavia, prior to the brutal...
Judith Butler said, “Understanding Hamas and Hezbollah as social movements that are progressive… that are part of the global left is extremely important.”
The video title is self-explanatory (released interrogation footage without commentary):

I assume that those who were willing to surrender rather than die as martyrs were among the...
