What would their alternative be?
Crybulling. Zelensky is master of that.
IDF. The sooner and thorougher they finish eradicating Hamas, the sooner the Palestinians life will start improving.
Edit: Not a satire or sarcasm. Hamas has entagled all military and civilian spaces so that enormous civilian casualties are unavoidable, hamas has made the life of any palestinian in the gaza strip hell, hamas made the coexisting of Israel and Hamas impossible (how israel helped creating hamas is matter for another time), the best way to save palestinians is to help Hamas lose.

Honestly Trump has very solid instincts. The US need greenland and panama. Canada should be US vassal and not have its own immigration policy. Gaza ethnic cleansing or being xinjianged is the only endgame for peace. It has been obvious for decades. The best way is for the Gulf states to employ subsaharan mercenaries and to pacify and administer the place, but unfortunately not much of an appetite for that.

And his attitude towards his benefactors (and since my country is one of those, means I unwillingly support him) is the reason I hate him. And his way of talking do rub a nice chunk of Europeans the wrong way. I am also annoyed that no one has bitchslapped him already to show him his proper station.
Is he not behaving like a beggar?
He is behaving like a member of /r/ChoosingBeggars . He speaks like he is entitled to EU and US weapons for free, to EU and US boots on the ground, like he is entitled to use them how he sees fit, he is entitled to security guarantees and membership in EU and NATO.
He dares to makes demands, to criticize us ...
Zelensky is just prettier Greta Turnberg while in drag (check his old videos), but with the same abrasive attitude towards the world
I recall one American woman being run over by an Israeli bulldozer trying to prevent such an incident.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I like it when activism has consequences. Makes the game for the next players higher stakes and spicier.

Kaplan has used his power to get academics fired for criticizing Israel’s war crimes in Palestine
Framed like that it seems like you assume that Israel's war crimes in Palestine are settled fact. I don't think this is the case.

You have put quite a lot of links showing that single people are not trying, few that prove it is hard.

Running like a rat out of a flooded tunnel is rarely a stuff of legends. Hamas are hypocritical, where ISIS were at least sincere - Hamas are willing other Palestinians to die for their cause, but not themselves.

Not facetious. There are no organizations there which are independent and which can guard their resources and supplies from Hamas. So whatever you send - Hamas will have dibs on it. And there is absolutely nothing in the way Hamas has acted so far that indicates that they will put the wellbeing of the civilians that they use as human shields instead of that of their members.
There may be organizations that are honest and will help but they will be working with the displaced civilians in Egypt, not with the ones in the cross fire.

Bad analogy. Anyway look at the facts - the baby is with major brain damage, needs constant life support, it may not survive the trip, the logistics of the trip themselves are not trivial, and that care is terribly vague. All of the first were could be taken out of consideration if there was some serious data on the last. It is not blocking the way to the hospital, it is blocking the way to a quack.

Kill all the Ayatollahs and remove this regime and then I agree with you.

Trump Senior will be backseat driving
Trump senior is not fully in the driver seat right now. Let's not pretend that there will be much of his mind left in 4 or 8 years. And his mind is terrible at driving anyway. Good at winning elections. But at best mediocre at governing.

And this is why only clueless people use pure online dating. Meet girls IRL. Chat with her a bit. Take her contacts. Is it THAT hard?

Generally speaking I am in - I want Russia to win in Ukraine mostly because of the prestige the EU and US have put there and because Zelensky is behaving like entitled brat. But any analysis that doesn't include at least couple of paragraphs on the Russian situation, and the challenges in front of them is incomplete.
Do we have any reasons to believe that Russia will be stronger next year or that at least the decline of Ukraine will be faster that the one of Russia (then the artillery theorem comes into play and Ukraine is fucked). That Russian economy won't crash because of the sanctions kicking in? That Russia's military industrial complex will be able to produce enough stuff that goes boom?

- Last time that happened, we got FDR and then leftist politics for 2 generations.
We also got Hitler, Franco and Mussolini. So we may be lucky and not get FDR.

"My health is at risk because if I'm not permitted to abort I might harm myself" is a free at-will golden ticket as long as you're able to memorize and repeat a sentence of that length.
I have a simple solution - allow abortion doctors and psychiatrists and hospitals to be sued by the patients if they have buyers remorse pre-menopause. Same with the ones that transition kids before they are 18 of age. If those are the unadulterated goods that proponents say they are - there won't be issues. People will think twice before rubberstamping one. There should be a skin in the game for the medical personal if they play fast and loose with life altering decisions

Gazans get your shit together? Israel has pulled out of Gaza in 2005 and there has been no attempts to resettle it.
One problem with suburbs is that they don't generate that much economic/tax revenue to support their infrastructure compared to the denser mixed use land in the city proper. Let alone the business districts.
At my hometown - during communist times there were quite a lot bedroom communities and when I moved they were deserts economic wise. Right now some of them are quite vibrant -due to somewhat Laissez-faire situation after the fall, a lot of land left by the planners, and because a lot of shady interests built there business districts, bars, restaurants and all other kinds of business. But they were quite dense to begin with - one of the biggest had 300000 people living in 10 square kilometers in Large Panel System buildings. If they were single housing units - there wouldn't have been enough land for anything.
So you need proper planning for everything - to have spare land for any kind of use. The problem is that people really like their single houses and are quite reluctant to change it. And unfortunately YIMBY-sm just doesn't have answer to that.

That is good - as with GMO ban. My concern in both cases are the long tail effects on the human body. In Europe and US we can afford the traditionally produced and expensive calories. I prefer the third world to be a test bed for such innovations for a couple of generations.

If Hamas blows the tunnels and collapses the area to avoid giving Israel evidence, will anyone accept that it wasn't an Israeli bomb?
That is evidence in itself.

I definitely have an issue with how you present the findings of the article. No one wants to kill the baby. They withhold care and not even on cost base, but because there is no benefit. Second - the article is preciously light with details about the treatment that the Vatican hospital proposes. I doubt that the UK doctors wouldn't recommend the baby to be moved to Italy if there was even a shred of evidence that their treatment there would potentially lead to permanent improvement. Or even to advancement for the medicine as a field.

Wasn't some Israeli soldiers literally lynched and mutilated by a palestinian mob couple of years ago?
No man left behind means also coup de grace. With reports about mass rape, breasts cut off (thankfully the case I read about was post mortem) and people set on fire - if a hamas vehicle is taking hostages to gaza and you can lob a rocket into it - probably would be better for your people inside.
Latinos have always been white for me. If you are from European descent and culturally Christian you are white. You don't have to be A4 skin color.
Edit: To sound cynical - it is every American's god given right to look down to blacks and natives (the same way for Europeans with gypsies). And when you remove that right they become cranky. So one can expect a lot of Asian and Indian "white" supremacists in next couple of years. Not only Hispanic. The whole point of the social pyramid is not to be at the bottom.
I really hate Zelensky's attitude that the world owes him or Ukraine and makes demands. Dude is a fucking beggar. He should behave like one.
