To a certain degree, as they mentioned in the article regarding the casimir effect. While one cannot keep out the quantum foam entirely, it can be restricted to specific wavelengths by altering the volume of the space.

The rivalry continues to today, as detailed in the link it seems like you didn’t read.

In March 2024, Hamas and its allied groups in the Gaza Strip criticized Abbas’ appointment of Mohamed Mustafa as the Palestinian Authority’s new prime minister following Mohammed Shtayyeh’s resignation. They issued a statement referring to the changes as “formal steps that are devoid of substance” and questioned the Palestinian Authority’s ability to properly represent the Palestinian people. In response, Fatah condemned Hamas as being itself disconnected from the Palestinian people and accused them of “having caused the return of the Israeli occupation of Gaza” by “undertaking the October 7 adventure”.
Later that month, Hamas accused Fatah of sending security officers into northern Gaza in collaboration with Israel, saying it had arrested six individuals and were “in pursuit” of the others. The Palestinian Authority issued a statement refuting the claims by Hamas.

They did exactly that, the two groups kept at parity and fighting each other were Fatah and Hamas.

Yes, they tried to divide and conquer but it backfired, I don’t think they’re doing that anymore.

Hamas must be deposed for meaningful safety, they’ve said they want to do October 7th over and over again. This is a last minute deal for them to try and weasel their way out of ultimate consequences for what they have done.

Occupying Gaza is probably also a good call considering their unilateral withdrawal arguably led directly to October 7th. I expect they will stay, try to implement a puppet government, do a little nation building, and only leave once Gaza is pacified. If this is not possible, expect more annexations and settlements.

I’m on kbin, not lemmy.

What on earth does this have to do with the patriot act?

It seems like the US government is predicting that the rise of AI will become a national security issue. They’re right.

I respect conscientious ojbectors, good for him.

Two whole people! Wow I guess that means that the entirety of experts must be <4. Also, that second person says they are “moving towards a ‘genocidal campaign.’” Not that they have committed one.

And South Africa, too! lol. I bet you can find some Muslim states who agree as well.

I’m done here, you’re clearly not willing to discuss this in good faith.

Your claim: “Overwhelmingly genocide experts agree the Israel-Palestine conflict is a genocide.”
Your Evidence: A quote by one historian. Not even a link, mind you, a screenshot. It was from the same source I provided, so if it was a normal link that same article would show other experts who disagree with him below his quote.

Do I need to explain to you why you are being intellectually dishonest here?

Here’s yet another source that shows there isn’t a consensus among experts:

Yeah and some scientists deny that climate change is a thing, that doesn’t mean all points of view are equally valid. What you are pretending is a mainstream point of view is actually quite contentious:

Calling this genocide is like crying wolf, it merely provides cover for actual genocides by diluting the term until it’s meaningless. Israel could certainly suffer fewer casualties if they were to fire bomb or nuke Gaza, but they won’t because they’re not fucking genocidal.

I really hate this usage of the term, Boomer. Words mean things!

Your perspective is distorted, things are incredible and getting better by most metrics.

• The average person today lives better than kings of old.
• We have abundant water, food, and sanitation. In America, food is so subsidized that it is ridiculously cheap by historical standards.
• Your odds of dying to violence or disease have never been lower in all of human history.
• You have all human knowledge at your fingertips, and technology is expected to keep improving our lives in novel ways.
• You can visit any place on Earth in a matter of hours and have access to cheap exotic foreign goods.
• Civil rights are protected a lot more today than they were in many/most civilizations of the past.
• Entertainment is abundant and cheap, and takes forms that people of the past could only dream about.

While we certainly have our challenges to overcome, like climate change, wealth inequality, and social problems, let’s not forget how good we have it.
