No month before July reached anywhere near 100 and for the first half of the year there were about 170 total rocket attacks that managed to injure a whopping 4 people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Palestinian_rocket_attacks_on_Israel,_2014 After 2500 rocket attacks in July managed to injure 34 people. Yes, the Israeli's are clearly the victims here. Israel is a terrible "ally" that can't even have the decency to not sell our military technology to the Chinese.

Courthouse posted:Suicide bombing has nothing to do with moral high ground and everything to do with a desperate lack of alternate effective modes of attack. If you think jews wouldn't be strapping bombs to their chests if that was all that stood between them and the sea, then The Jews regularly attacked civilian targets using car bombs and IEDs back before when the state of Israel was a thing and the Jews actually were (sort of, at least until the Brits left) the plucky underdogs. Of course since Jews are smart, they generally didn't stick around to blow themselves up. gfanikf posted:Forgetting Pakistan?

Even if Kyle was lying going after his widow is pretty low. To be fair, the lawsuit was initiated prior to his death. It just took awhile to wind its way through the court system.

Ventura's a dick and always talk out of his rear end. See any O&A clip with Jimmy Norton arguing with him. He resorts to disagreement by calling people "patriots" sarcastically. Also, from the clips I've heard of Chris Kyle describing the incident, I would believe him - guess we will never know.

IIRC, Ventura offered to drop the suit if Chris Kyle (and later his estate) was willing to just come out and say that he made the whole barfight episode up.

Is this the Jon Stewart "Because the Israelis have the good sense to build bomb shelters to shelter themselves from bombs instead of shelter their bombs and die topside, they're being totally unfair" argument? RandomPauI posted:They're nicknamed "Piss Rockets". Here is one in action. Here's the piss rockets they're using these days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZkCnel5Js4 Which Hamas can't aim worth a poo poo, hitting a hospital and a refugee camp, killing 20-odd Palestinians: Of course the Al-Shifa hospital is already being used as a Hamas command center with an interrogation room right next to the ER. Journalists slipping up and mentioning this are getting death threats online and rather more direct ones in person. Coincidentally I ran across this, from the former UK commander in Afghanistan: quote:DD: How has the British army in Afghanistan gained from the Israeli army’s expertise? I'm assuming the leaflet dropping is more 'Bad guy X lives in your neighborhood, move away or throw him out' as simple 'we're bombing here' leaflets go back at least to WWII. But he has a point that if you've used counter-IED tech (this is more for GiP than our D&D visitors) you've quite probably had your rear end saved by the Israelis at least once.

Well let's see - MRAPs come from the South Africans, while CREW systems and CIED robots were US initiatives. I don't doubt that Israeli tech and techniques have made it into the EOD realm, but the same could be said for the British, who gained a wealth of knowledge in CIED operations from fighting the IRA.

Name one loving ally in the history of ever who hasn't sold technology to the Chinese. I'm dead goddamn serious. Hell we get in the same game in the U.S. Private companies love blowing off the law and sending poo poo to China they "shouldn't." Welcome to the drawbacks of free and open societies and reliable and cheap lines of international communications and transportation. Israel is our bulldog on a tenuous leash in the region, and our universal arming of the Middle East has been more destabilizing many times over when compared to the exploits of the Israelis and their quirky modern Gaza problems. You don't seem to "get" the long arc of anything, let alone the history of American intervention in the region. The worst loving ally to have in the Middle East is the United States. Step one in the problem is admitting you have a problem- and in the spirit of that, perhaps we should review the long term security benefits of the Military Sales Jamboree in the region we're having in exchange for short term profits to our MIC, and extremely short lived goodwill from dubiously rational state and non state actors. But hahahahahaha hahahahaha. I'll drink NyQuil and Boxed wine while building a pillow fort in Vas's basement before we ever have a moment where we question the "common sense" of our middle eastern "strategies" (And I can't put quotes around this hard enough), No matter what happens, ultimately there are too many people, too many guns, not enough livable land, and not enough water and food. Give poo poo enough time, and one group is going to have to destroy the other as a separate and competitive force. Either this will happen through assimilation of one culture and peoples into the other, or one will become a footnote to history like the Iroquois or say, Sioux. Human kind hasn't got the best history of assimilation however, particularly when it comes to these plucky motherfuckers on both sides. In my opinion Our worst "allies" by far are France and Germany. And personally I love those smelly Muslim hating Frogs myself, and I'll never find myself comfortable with the Germans. Ever. I'm serious though, if you want a terrible goddamn Ally in the Middle East, the United States is your man. We'll happily arm your people to the teeth, spread about the blackbowder, Chuck a CALCM or Tomahawk, and watch the sands burn while laughing maniacally. I loving love America.
