We’re talking about poisoning a single person not a gas cloud. Poisoning a single person vs drone striking a wedding.

Nerve agents compared to drone strikes look humane and civilized.

The legal reasons was because the Linux Foundation is based in the USA and the targeted devs worked for companies explicitly sanctioned by the USA. Linus said he knew and trusted the devs he was forced to delist.

The Linux Foundation needs to relocate to some stable neutral country like Switzerland.

justifies civilian casualties.

The entire goal of hasbara is this.

Wtf is that mean. Tunnels aren’t communication devices. Also Hezbollah famously has vast tunnel networks under southern Lebanon.

Historically Hamas has been the amateurs and Hezbollah the pros. Hezbollah has actual victories against the IDF. Hamas’ military success last October was completely unprecedented. Its generally believed that Hezbollah trained Hamas into the fighting force it is now. And since Iran trained Hezbollah you get people claiming Hamas is an Iranian puppet.

Its accepting Israeli propaganda to say that this was a precision strike. This is like using cluster munitions.

Whenever Israel comes up with an idea for an assassination they do it because they can. Its a force of habit for them.

Hezbollah was using commercial grade pagers because they’re a militia. The purpose of pagers are to contact them when their off duty. Many of these pagers blew up in homes, grocery stores, and other public places. Many civilians were killed and most people injured were bystanders.

It is funny that involvement in Afghanistan has been passed back and forth between the US an Russia for half a century. Before that it was the UK and Russia. But thats not what the meme is about. The meme revels in its own ignorance of the situation.

Yes, ISKP is a direct consequence of US meddling in the region. Many of it’s members were our collaborators. But I think you’re being unfair here if you’re going to equate Russia trying to stabilize the Taliban’s rule with America’s failure to replace it. Its possible that Russia’s involvement can escalate like it did in the 80s but I doubt that’ll happen. That would be like the America deciding to send troops to Vietnam again.

Finally anyone who has a grain’s worth of intuition about the world’s politics would know that what Russia calls “a partnership against terrorism” is a cover up for continuing to meddle in affairs of middle eastern countries

See that’s just it. You’re operating off you’re preconceived notions instead of the facts on the ground. The fact is the ISKP is operating in northern Afghanistan and is a threat to literally everyone in the region. When you put that into perspective, the meme is not funny and is massively ignorant. Despite all the injustices the Taliban commits, the Islamic State is far far worse. They’re the ones actively suicide bombing Hazari women and the only ones who can stop them are, regrettably the Taliban. Thats a grim and morbid reality, because the Taliban is racist as hell against Hazari’s but they aren’t genocidal like the Islamic State. We’d both like to seem some progressive secular democracy in the region but we spent two decades pissing any chances of that away.

Yeah they’re hyper conservative religious zealots. I have many criticisms of them. Islamic state is far far worse though. Can you at least recognize that the Islamic State is worse?

I never said they didn’t arm them. I explicitly stated multiple times that we agreed on this front. All I stated is that the only islamists doing terrorism are the wahhabists and then you’re like “ah BUT did you consider that the CIA funded those terrorists???” as though that disproves anything I said.

You tried to frame what should’ve been an “yes AND” as some disagreement. There is no disagreement.

All I’m doing is pointing out the a the Islamic State is strictly worse than the Taliban and its good that the Taliban are fighting them. I’d prefer it’d be someone other than the Taliban but that doesn’t change the facts.

Making fun of the Taliban for joining forces against the Islamic State, the terrorists from the meme is defending them.

The Islamic State are the ones suicide bombing Hazari women at the moment not the Taliban.

And are you simping for the Islamic State?

I think we’re done here after that embarrassing tantrum.

No. And no patience for the semantic argument you’re wasting my time with when we both agree on the material reality

I said “Islamic terrorism is almost exclusively the domain of wahhabi’s” and you’re argueing, “what if the CIA funded the wahhabi’s?” as though that contradicts my point.

I don’t know what the disagreement is. Its always the wahhabi’s executing the actual terrorism. If you want to lump in their sponsors, like is said, “go off”. But you’re framing it like I’m ignorant of that which I’m not.
