Uh huh. All evils in the middle east are Israel’s fault. And if not them, than the Americans. Sunni vs Shiite violence has killed more people in the area than the Americans and Israelis combined, and started over a 1000 years ago, but somehow that’s the Americans and Israelis fault too.
But hey, don’t let reality’s shades of grey ruin your pretty black and white imaginary picture.
So, ignoring the fact that “Muslim” describes one’s faith, not race, do you honestly believe that a Muslim majority Palestine is going to drastically more tolerant than all the other Muslim majority countries in the area? What signs are there that would point to that being the case?
I’m not. I never was. I have no idea why you keep bringing it up.
Do you not read the context of comments you replied to? The guy I was responding to specifically said he hopes that what’s happening to Palestinians happens to the Israelis.
And you keep ignoring the point that it doesn’t fucking matter. You can’t solve genocide with more genocide.
Decolonization can be done peacefully.
50 years ago you might have had a chance to make it happen, since most Israeli people would have been born elsewhere. Now you have multiple generations of people born and raised in Israel. They have nowhere else to go.
And you’ll have to forgive me for being skeptical about a Muslim majority Palestine being tolerant of religious differences if they regained control of the whole area.
What fantasy land do you live in where the involuntary dismantling of a country is ever a peaceful process?
I feel like I’m talking to a bot. All of your responses are at best tangentially related to what I say.
You’re getting down voted because you’ve missed the point. It doesn’t matter why the current situation is happening, calling for genocide as a response to genocide makes you just as guilty as the people you hate.
The truth is, you’ve completely ignored my point. Genocide as a response to genocide solves nothing.
Or here’s a novel thought: how about we start hoping for bad shit to not happen? The cycle of revenge and “I deserve this land because X” is how we ended up in this situation in the first place.
There’s always the chance that if you hit a red state hard enough, it might turn purple. That will very much get their attention.
I don’t think this is the shit hitting the fan yet, but the fan has been turned on, and the bean burrito has been eaten.
If you are burying the waste, you’d be using a mine that is below the impermeable bedrock layer. There would be no leeching at all.
And using the most expensive project on the planet as your reference is disingenuous as best. Most other projects cost less than a third of that.
Additionally, almost no one is ever suggesting that nuclear is a 100% replacement. Most people suggest nuclear baseload with renewables+battery for peaks.
Depends on the reactor type. I know the CANDU reactors that Canada uses are very difficult to meltdown since they use unenriched uranium fuel, and if the deuterium moderator disappears due to a missile strike or something, the reaction just fizzles instead of running away.
10 km which direction? If it’s buried 1km down, you can stick it directly below my home for all I care.
not sure who told you that nuclear reactors cost half a trillion dollars to build, or are you thinking they would be building 30+ reactors?
closed loop cooling of reactors is a thing. There’s zero reason to ever have drinking water restrictions.
this doesn’t make sense. Why would the price of electricity double to maintain the status quo? I thought you were paying for the reactors out of income taxes?
Long story short, there’s plenty of valid reasons to argue against nuclear power. Use those reasons, not made up bullshit.
He’s adding tariffs to uninhabited islands, and islands that do no trade with the US. He has no idea how any of this shit works.
Even if you don’t believe in climate change, closing coal plants is good. You don’t need years worth of data to see the smog go away.
It’s like Canada has switched from embracing our polite and slightly passive aggressive British side, to embracing our “fuck the consequences and fuck you” not-so-polite French side.
I’m here for it. I think we should start doing all official communication with the US in French. After all, it is one of our official languages, and I’m feeling awfully petty.
Doesn’t even need tariffs. Could just take away their tax exemption.
