  • Wait, didn’t Gazans have free elections in 2005/6 when they elected Hamass? So they are ruled by their own government they chose. Or are Hamass terrorists and usurpers? Then Israel is doing Palestinians a favor by getting rid of Hamass tyrants for them, right? Why did Egypt not declare Gaza a free Palestinian state last time it occupied it? Why did Jordan not do the same for West Bank?

    If your great-great-great grandfather occupied my land am I allowed to rape your mother and sisters? You won’t object too much if I also kill you first, right? After all I’m only resisting the occupation.




  • Israel traded hundreds of people for 1 soldier, they do care about their civilians that’s why they are fighting a war against the most evil regime on earth currently (right after Iran, Syrian Assad and Hezbollah), but you don’t reward hostage taking with negotiations because it will only encourage that behavior. Israel did it with Shalit, which encouraged Hamass to take even more hostages, knowing full well that that is Israel’s weakness. This time, Hamass gets fucked in the ass for taking hostages so bad they’re gonna squeel like a piggy, and don’t ever think about taking hostages again.

    I don’t think you ever took even economics 101 in school because for almost all products there exists a price where you can actually increase your profits by decreasing the price because the larger sales volume offsets the revenue lost. Applies to your fridge example as well. You just assumed the same sales in both scenarios which is not even close to being realistic. And your Nvidia/AMD example ignores the high inflation seen during that period.
