No worries, it was on me. Having reread what I wrote I can see how it sounded like that's what I was saying.

I can see how you thought that's what I was saying, but it's not what I meant.

You're right that he would feel different if his family was bombed by the IDF.

But then you have to consider how he would feel if his family were kidnapped, raped and murdered by Hamas.

This is a textbook cycle of violence.

What if there is no solution to mutual hate, which is why this conflict has been going on for decades?

Edit: to be clear I'm not advocating for genocide here, I'm saying that there probably is no simple solution to peace in the middle east.

7 degrees of ~~Kevin Bacon~~ blaming the US for all of the world's problems.

I'm don't think I am.

The internet had a ton of legitimate and potential users too, but that didn't prevent the dot com bubble from bursting.

Not only is AI built on a shakey house of cards of stolen IP and unlicensed writing, artwork, music and other data, but there are also way too many players in the space and an amount of investment that, in my opinion, goes way beyond the reality of what AI can achieve.

Whether AI is a bubble or not has more to do with the hype economy around it than the technology itself.

AI is looking like the biggest bubble in tech history and stuff like this really ain't helping.

Part of my core philosophy is to never let other people define you. Define yourself and let other people define themselves too.

I'm not conflating anything. Just posting well-sourced and unbiased, objective historical record. Kind of odd how riled up that made you... (Remember, you're entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts.)

Frankly I'm not really interested in your interpretation of that history, especially since you don't seem to have a very good or nuanced grasp of it in the first place. There are plenty of smart, informed and qualified people who have written on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. No offense but I'll probably check out what they have to say before I check in with you.

Anyway, have a good one!

Are you under the impression that the Palestinians invaded Israeli lands in 1948, killing thousands of them?

It really shouldn't be... And personally I think it makes zero sense for the DEA to both schedule substances and police them, because it creates an obvious conflict of interest that got us here in the first place. But here we are.
