Oh, I wouldn't argue that. But Israel don't give a frack, which is the problem. Sure, held to higher standard far more than Hamas, but it hasn't exactly stopped them killing civilians in friendly fire (I'm leaving out "accidents" as there's plenty of debate around that...). Hell, I haven't heard from any source saying Israel has apologised for any such cases, they only get angry and justify their actions some more like a broken record.

I'd be pissed too if I were expected to apologise in the course of fighting genocidal theocrats.

But that doesn't really do anything worthy of all the headache that the ACA caused.

I was being sardonic.

True. But it's not the marginally-overweight people who champion this song; it's those who are severely obese who use it to say "SEE SHE SAYS I'M PRETTY!"

So? Let them be fat. Why should you care at all?

God damn diabetic land whales be jacking up the cost of health insurance, yo.

Hey, at least it's fuc­king mandatory now. . .

Are these Metas just you with multiple personality disorder?

They'll probably end up changing their names to disassociate from me.

But no, there will only ever be a trinity of Metas.

He's my best mate and Meta Knowledge's man whore.

Welcome, prick.

The why can't I write a million dollars on a piece of paper and say it's a million dollars? Who has the right, or should I say, why do certain people have the right to name and insist on a set value on money? Why is their paper, which isn't even paper anymore by the way, more legitimate than me finely writing out a million dollars on a piece of paper?

Because you scribbling on a notepad doesn't constitute legal tender. . .

It's not like this is the first time for that...

People are generally blind to the fact that Israel is held to higher standards in the media than most other countries. I don't know where this delusion that they are still untouched by criticism comes from.

And that statement they're using human shields can't possibly be because it was fabricated or twisted by Israeli media

No, it isn't. I don't know how you find it incredulous that a group like Hamas would do something like that.

Gaza Strip wouldn't be densely populated if Israel wouldn't fracking still land from them. Palestine is a sovereign nation and Israel's actions directly violates the U.N Charter

I know you're not trying to imply that the Gaza Strip is densely populated as a proximate result of Israel, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, there. Now then, as for the U.N. Charter, I'd like to a see source that Palestine is a sovereign nation first.

Secondly, I don't disagree that the Palestinian situation is a travesty. However, to pretend that this justifies - or otherwise makes desirable - the actions of Hamas is to not reason correctly. I think preventing a genocidal government from making any gains momentarily trumps the sovereignty of the Palestinian people.

Because killing over 2,000 Palestinians in a few weeks doesn't make you worse than the group that killed a few dozen

Just stop and realise this "group" you're talking about is a democratically-elected, explicitly genocidal government that uses their own people as human shields and fires rockets from beside schools and hospitals.

High civilian casualties? Blame the nature of Hamas and the densely-populated nature of the Strip first. You have to have some sense or moral proportion before (correctly) holding Israel to account.

Because Hamas isn't worse, right? RIGHT?

Don't be dumb.

How about we drop both

And create a new secular state that doesn't engage in genocide

>Israel
>Genocidal

Pick one.

I'd sooner see the whole region engulfed by Israel before I saw Hamas get an inch of land.

Two state solution is the way to go, however.

4chan'd be the psychopathic sadist.

Confirmed not to know shit about 4chan

All right, he'd be the psychopathic sadist with dissociative identity disorder.

He's horrible on the outside, but has a vibrant soul in reality <3

Tumblr would be the autist who kept fighting with 4chan.

4chan'd be the psychopathic sadist.

Reddit'd be the relatively normal, quite intelligent one just watching with exasperation.

Twitter'd be the one whose growth was stunted and they're really bitter about it.

Facebook'd be the pervert.

Wikipedia'd be the irritating know-it-all.

And Youtube would be the funny one.

I agree. There should be religion classes in all schools.

This guy gets it.

Nice to see everybody's settling in.
