Has Hamas or Hezbollah?

You seem to be implying Israel is no better than a terrorist group.

Not only is it no better, it is significantly worse.

Hamas is the (originally elected by the people) government of Gaza. Hezbollah is a partner of and inside Lebanon's government.

In addition, both parties are who Israel was nominally in a ceasefire with. So extremely relevant to the discussion about Israel and ceasefires and not random whataboutism.

You seem to be implying discussion should be waived away if a counter party is both a government and a terrorist organization.

Not sure why you're replying to me?

I'm not the one comparing Israel, Hamas, and Hezbollah.

Though next time I'll put terrorist group in quotes, as everyone has their own opinion.

why is that relevant? Israel is a nation state, the others are 'terrorist groups'. are they equivalent? your response seems to imply that.

Interesting.

Israel is not a nation state but a western colony in Palestine (like Tibet is a Chinese colony, or Algeria was for france).

Less times than Israel, and usually in response.

Israel has done more terrorism than Hamas.

They have a far better track record. The other side constantly lies and violates every rule.

Yes

Textbook whataboutism.

The Nakba was not provoked by jihadist groups, it was provoked by colonial invaders. The victimization narrative never worked.

What changed is that he doesn't have a publicist filtering his nonsense anymore.

Did you use Frontpage to create your frontpage?

<meta name="generator" content="FrontPage 4.0">

Then add A BUNCH of extra XML to bloat the page nicely

Back in the day, MS FrontPage was indeed synonymous with nested and unreliable page structure.

I wish I could go back and tell them it is nothing compared to what passes for web output in the 21st century.

"A building or edifice is an enclosed structure with a roof, walls and often windows, usually standing permanently in one place."

Ah, but "stuns" gets the clicks!

"UK adults’ media and online lives revealed"

Adults are the focus here, not men.

Not a drone...

How is it not a drone?

It is a drone. But "drone" by itself is primarily used to refer to aircraft. I thought the title referred to some sort of ultra-endurance aircraft.

Merriam-Webster defines drone as "uncrewed aircraft or vessel"; Cambridge limits it to "aircraft". When the drone is not an aircraft, it's often preceded with its type: for example, "underwater drone" or "ground drone".

You're wrong.

It's hard to even tell any more. So many people are using AI that even the non-AI-using people are starting to write like that.

Read the entries in the blog that predate AI, the style is very clearly different.

I would be shocked if someone consciously or unconsciously adopted AI style so perfectly so quickly. Changing your style is not easy and if you're capable of it, probably this is not the style you'd pick.

I'm willing to bet hard money.

I went to some of the oldest writing on the blog, the style is completely different.

Lighten up, Francis.

AI can train on it and stop recommending it.
