Never heard that cats were doing yoga.
I know, that’s what’s why it sounded random. -20C is rounded number. So 0F or -5F or -10F could be better.
I understand that people here want to believe that, but this is simply false. The standard of living rose significantly (probably several times) from the lowest point in nineteen nineties. This partially explains unwillingness of Russians to cardinally change their government. They still remember what happened last time.
They did couple of times in the past. But the place is cursed.
Yes, -4 was very random.
But then Russia will not be able to get all that ammunition…
What prevents Hamas hiding behind people waving white flag? And what do you think should happen when Hamas shooting rockets (to civilian centers, by the way, specifically targeting cities without ANY military value) when they do it on purpose from civilian objects? Hamas using civilian objects like hospital, schools etc. is well established fact.
As for percentage, take for example Iraq War. Per Wikipedia about 20K insurgence were killed, the civilian casualties, however are in hundreds of thousands. And those insurgence did not specifically use human shield. So, was it genocide too?
I see no reason for people applying double standards to Israel other than banal antisemitism. And, I personally put the blame for civilian deaths in this war squarely on Hamas. They started this war, planned this situation, specifically knowing that what will likely happen next and were prepared for this and continue using the civilian shields.
When you mix religion with nationalism and antisemitism you get dangerous mixture of people ready to go to haven by killing infidels and ready to scarifies civilians for the same reasons. There is no way for Israel and Palestinian people to live in piece with organization like Hamas present, whose declared goal IS genocide of Israel.
The problem with this particular war is that Hamas purposefully and in mass uses civilian shield. They do not care that civilians will die, in fact it is absolutely obvious and predicted and calculated outcome of their incursion into Israel. The only way for Israel not to kill civilians was not to react at all, which I think was not an option for them. Any attempt to avoid killing Hamas because of the potentially greater civilian casualties leads only to Hamas using civilians even more and in greater number, leading to even more deaths in future.
That’s not what is going on there. Unfortunately for Russian LGBT community, LGPT suppression is selected as anti Western anti democracy propaganda point. People are brainwashed into believing that it is something evil.
From the article:
He also expressed regret, saying, “It is the result of Korea maximizing the bad points of Confucian culture and the shortcomings of capitalism.”
Well, they had much more information than an average internet user has and that’s quite different conclusion from what majority users on this board would immediately jump without any doubt that Israel is committing genocide.
More over, it did not say that “Israel could”, i.e. it did not say that it did anything incorrectly. only that “it should take all measures within its power”.
Notably, they did NOT call whatever Israel has done as genocide.
In other words, continue military complain, just give some food.
The fact that ICJ adopted the convention at later time does not necessarily mean that Israel gave ICJ right to judge it. Israel signed the convention, not the ICJ.
Israel is not a signatory to the Rome Statute, which established the International Criminal Court (ICC). So it is not clear how judicially valid the decision can be.
While Israel is UN member, and technically by extension is a member of ICJ too, but so is US. And we know that US does not recognize ICJ decision against US as valid.
USSR never owned Alaska.
I do not know if this is true for sure, but the news reported that Israel wanted to do preemptive military strike against Hezbollah, and did not, because of US presser. Hezbollah itself did not involve (fully) into war with Israel also at least partly because of US carrier group being nearby. I would say, sir, that your statement is false.
How many miles?
