  • Khan’s charges against Netanyahu and Gallant include “starvation of civilians”, “extermination”, and “intentionally directing attacks against a civilian population”.

    The US president, Joe Biden, has denounced Khan’s bid for arrest warrants for the Israeli officials as “outrageous”, saying: “There is no equivalence – none – between Israel and Hamas.”

    1. Why can’t Biden keep Bibi’s dick out of his mouth for five goddamn minutes?

    2. No one is talking about equivalence, we’re talking about holding people accountable for war crimes.








  • They’ve already flattened Gaza and turned their eyes to the next target.

    This week saw two concurrent days of unprecedented attacks on Hezbollah operatives throughout Lebanon, with the explosion of communications devices used by members causing the deaths of dozens and injuries of thousands. Hezbollah has blamed Israel for the attacks and has vowed a response, raising the specter of further escalation in the conflict.

    They’re not gonna stop. As long as America keeps supporting them, they’ll keep lashing at at everyone close and causing a new generation of terrorists so they can keep doing it indefinitely.

    Fascists can’t ever beat their enemies, or they need to invent new ones. That’s why Bibi is suddenly fine letting Hamas leaders leave. So they can come back later.


  • MBFC:

    Newsrael covers Israeli and regional news with emotionally loaded language, such as this: “WATCH: Rashida Tlaib has meltdown when asked to condemn ‘Death to America’ chants.” The video report headline suggests a bias against Rashida Tlaib by portraying her reaction as a “meltdown,” a term loaded with negative connotations. The phrase “asked to condemn” also implies an expectation of moral judgment, which can frame Tlaib’s response in a particular light before the details are known. The headline uses emotive language and framing that could lead readers to form a biased perception of Rashida Tlaib’s response without necessarily providing context or details of the incident.

    When covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, they hold one-sided views, such as this: “PA Chooses to Fund Terrorists but Not Heart Disease Patients.” The article title and content suggest a strong bias against the Palestinian Authority (PA). It frames the Palestinian Authority’s actions in a negative light, particularly by emphasizing its alleged prioritization of funding for terrorists over healthcare services. This framing aligns with a narrative often found in pro-Israel discourse, which tends to emphasize security concerns related to terrorism and criticize Palestinian leadership.

    But its obviously propaganda from the title and website name tho






  • In Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, in the village of Saraain, one young girl, Fatima Abdullah, had just come home from her first day of fourth grade when she heard her father’s pager begin to beep, her aunt said. She picked up the device to bring it to him and was holding it when it exploded, killing her. Fatima was 9.

    And

    By the end of the day, at least a dozen people were dead and more than 2,700 were wounded, many of them maimed. And the following day, 20 more people were killed and hundreds wounded when walkie-talkies in Lebanon also began mysteriously exploding. Some of the dead and wounded were Hezbollah members, but others were not; four of the dead were children.

    Both are war crimes, and while Israel hasn’t formally declared war. Their defense minister is calling this a war.

    But you can’t use indiscriminate attacks, and you can’t aim for maiming instead of killing.

    Shit like this just makes more terrorists, which at this point is pretty obvious is Israels goal. They do t want to “win a war” they want to create a permanent boogey man so Israels current unpopular leaders get to hold.o to power a little longer.

    Bibi and his people will keep doing this shit, because it’s the only way they keep power.

    They want war and chaos





  • The Phenom 2?!

    I barely remember it, but yeah, it was a beast.

    But my 1700x went hard for five years. The only reason I tacked the extra 5 on was x3d changes things up.

    Now, since I’ve made that comment AMD has solved the Zen 5 latency issues but cutting it by more than half. That’s what was holding it back. So when the Zen 5 x3d comes out, it’s going to be nuts.

    But…

    It’s going to take a while for those changes to become industry standard. It might be a year before Zen 5 x3d, I’m not sure if they’ve even announced when. So games won’t take full advantage of them right away.

    It takes like a 4070 super to CPU bound a 7800x3d, and fine tune some settings and it’ll balance out

    We’re not going to have a new screen resolution jump, and that combo can max out 4k 120fps on pretty much anything thanks to frame generation without even touching upscaling.

    There’s just not a lot to improve until we see a major jump like VR finally taking off.


  • The fact checking in this article is perfect lol

    “So what America should be saying is, if NATO wants us to continue supporting them and NATO wants us to continue to be a good participant in this military alliance, why don’t you respect American values and respect free speech?” Vance asked. “It’s insane that we would support a military alliance if that military alliance isn’t going to be pro-free speech. I think we can do both. But we’ve got to say American power comes with certain strings attached. One of those is respect free speech, especially in our European allies.”

    Musk has been accused of banning several journalists since taking over Twitter, now X.

    “I’m not going to go to some backwoods country and tell them how to live their lives,” Vance added. “But European countries should theoretically share American values, especially about some very basic things like free speech.”

    The US ranked 26th in the world when it comes to free speech, with several members of the European Union higher up the list, according to the 2024 Global Expression Report.
