Henry Kissinger — ‘It may be dangerous to be America’s enemy, but to be America’s friend is fatal.’

It must be for domestic consumption - he needs us to know (or think) he’s trying to split Russia from China. Probably means he’s going to make some really big moves that would freak people out without this context.

Moran Gaz, the former head of the security cases division at the Southern District Prosecutor’s Office in Israel and a member of ‘Team 7.10,’ which is responsible for cases involving captured Palestinians in connection with the October 7 attacks recently admitted that her department has found no evidence to substantiate the claims of “mass” and “systematic” rape by Hamas.

So, what, people won’t be allowed to read offline anymore? I hear the high seas calling…

Is it important for humanoid robots to be able to push buttons? That seems like a redundant task imo

Give pregnant people guns? 🤔

Surely it’d be cheaper to just replace the control interface with a computerized one than to install a robot to push the buttons.

Oh no, I think defederation is only necessary when an instance becomes a problem. Until piefed.social becomes a haven for trolls to manipulate vote counts (which might never happen) then it’s fine.

But if a dozen anonymized piefed.social votes start downvoting everything I say because they’re monitoring my account then their admins would need to do something about it. If they didn’t, I’d want defederation.

Racism.

It doesn’t explain his anti-China stance. China is an important economic and civic partner with Russia, it’s a very strong relationship.

Yeah I expect him to privatize it.

Maybe, but how many of those officers have since chosen to put their support behind Hamas? I think this plan of forming a comprador regime is making a lot of assumptions that won’t be possible due to the actual facts on the ground.

Of course, but the “move them all to Egypt” plan is off the table. They will not and can not be separated from the land.

I’m just wondering if there are enough. It’s been a hard 18 years for those officers.

Okay, so the ethnic cleansing plan looks like it’s off the table.

The Egyptian official told MEE a clash would not be necessary per its plan and that Hamas has agreed to step aside for a new Palestinian government that does not include senior PA officials from the West Bank.

The Associated Press reported on Tuesday that the Egyptian plan would not include Hamas or the PA. The report said it would involve a police force made up of PA policemen who remained in Gaza after 2007, when Hamas won legislative elections and took control of the enclave.

It’s been 18 years and several conflicts. Are any of those PA policemen even alive? How is this plan viable in any way?

The country did vote, if you recall.

I’m saying the voters chose Trump because he promised to break the rules, not really because he’s right wing.

You’re literally talking about how NATO is a threat to Putin, the leader of Russia.

I’m just saying, look at Libya to understand what happens next.

Take a look at Libya to see what happens when NATO helps depose the leader.

NATO encroachment is a threat to Russia.

I don’t see the country moving right, I see it rejecting the norms. They want someone in power who tells his opposition “fuck you I do what I want” and breaks all the rules. People want things to change, no matter the cost.

Democrats moving to the left wouldn’t necessarily solve this problem either. A farther left candidate that still wants to follow all the rules would lose. They want someone who is going to break stuff.
