Netanyahu was trying to play Hamas against the PA to divide and conquer and it blew up in his face.
That’s quite the conspiracy theory. So Oct 7 was what, just a coincidence, planned by Israel, or something equally absurd?

You’re presuming he only told the media, which is not what that report says. His team relayed this to Israeli officials:

Biden aide Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, is in Israel today and tomorrow for meetings with Israeli officials. He says he held “intense, detailed conversations” with Israeli officials on transitioning away from high-intensity fighting in Gaza, and focusing on more precise battles and targeting top Hamas officials.

Funny how most everyone here assumes the worst of Biden despite all he’s doing.

Sending aid and discouraging casualties are not mutually exclusive.

Biden continues to do what he does best: encourage more civilian casualties.

Actually Biden is doing the opposite of this.

Every Palestinian has not been deposed yet.

Every Palestinian holds office? Seems like you don’t know what that word means.

If they stop before they have access to all that sweet sweet oil

Or, you know, while there’s a neighboring government trying to murder them.

“I wish to extract more productivity from you without paying you more.”

That’s what locals call the hike that goes past the walk of fame to the Hollywood sign.

Honorable combat and waffles for every hour of the day, however long those are on earth.

I wonder how many Mozarts are living paycheck to paycheck working multiple jobs and don’t have time to compose or play because these chucklefucks denied them a living wage by going to war on unions.

I’ll be damned, I wouldn’t have thought wild shape was magic but indeed it is.

Outcomes must be knowable/predictable if it is deterministic. Things could have played out differently at least at small scales, which often have large effects.

Great let’s do it through secular public means, where it can be done at scale, without dogmatic strings attached, and it can cover everyone and not be an ad hoc patchwork that causes some people to fall through the cracks

Grants to faith based charities are just a backdoor for siphoning public funds to religious groups. We already subsidize their absurdity and disinformation via tax breaks.

Deadlands: Hearing the gunshot nearby, a startled wiry whipper snapper with an iron on his hip and a chip on his shoulder takes a shot at you from the darkness, as he says, “this darkness ain’t big enough for the both of us!” rolls and hits you in the noggin. Want to spend some chips? Oh you don’t have any? You are dead. Give me your character sheet and roll a new one, podner.

Changeling: the darkness opens revealing a portal to the hedge, your traumas come rushing back, the humiliation, the loss, the anger, the fear, a terrible yet calm Fae voice echoes from beyond, “the contract has been sealed.”

It’s not that we don’t know, it’s that we can’t know, via Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Iirc, hidden variable interpretations of quantum physics have thus far failed to explain what’s happening. It seems to be probabilistic.

Why should our publicly funded social safety net encourage belief in absurd bullshit?

Word is that the rocket that blew up before this one was because Elon musk decided the launch pad didn’t need a blast deflector, overriding his engineers.

SpaceX does awesome stuff, Elon Musk is a fuckwit.

It wouldn’t work as it currently exists.
