Simple: We start counting their statements as perjurious or contemptuous on the grounds that claiming bittorrent = piracy is as offensive to sense as claiming having a kitchen knife = murder.
Which is why I think we need to get out of this "does everything best/only need one" mindset and get back to having a few different models of aircraft that are reliable, dominate their particular role, and are affordable enough that we can actually USE them. If we want a stealth plane make it invisible and stupid fast so it can do its job and then GTFO if it's spotted. If we want an air superiority fighter make it fast, extremely maneuverable, and give it an ECM suite that would make Ghost in the Shell jealous. If we want ground support make it tough enough to soak ground fire while wrecking people's shit. If we want a bomber for use after air superiority is established make it tough, give it the fighter's ECM suite and a wing of escorts, and give it enough carrying capacity to schlep over the entire bomb factory if it needs to.
It's a little different on the ground but largely because the fight's asymmetrical in both training and technology. A lot of the less educated insurgents think our guys are literal demons because they just don't understand body armor or how advanced our med tech is. Similarly our tanks basically no-sell old soviet era handheld antitank weaponry.
That's why they try to stick to ambushes, potshots, and IEDs. Rigging up a bunch of old bombs makes an explosion big enough to blow up anything and it comes as a suckerpunch. With the way advanced materials are going I don't think it's unrealistic to expect that in a decade or two you'll basically have two tiers of capability: Advanced nations that can put out soldiers armed and armored to the point they're basically the main character of a 90s FPS, and less developed nations that need to rely on even more extreme guerilla tactics to take out the first group of guys.
The problem is we've already tapped out that skill tree. Air-Air engagements have been primarily over the horizon followed by a quick pass for a while, and we've hit the point where just going faster isn't really that useful anymore. Maneuverability is still a thing, but primarily for dealing with ground targets since again air-air is primarily a game of electronic warfare from over the horizon. The same goes for meanness... the A-10 is as ugly as a dump truck and twice as tough but that's so it can soak up lead while taking out ground targets, you can't make a jet mean enough to eat a modern anti-air missile and keep going.
Because pointing out the UN condemns Israel more than every other country in the world combined even in the middle of the chaos in Syria, brutal repression of protests and mass murder of gays and christians throughout the arab world, and genocides in sub-saharan Africa is equivalent to holocaust denial.
Because pointing out that the UN and its member bodies are so openly anti-semitic as to allow literal blood libel to stand as part of the record, and whose ranking officials routinely post violent anti-semitic materials inciting and endorsing further terrorist attacks is equivalent to holocaust denial.
Because targeting jews around the world and harassing/boycotting them if they don't join your crusade against Israel is TOTALLY not just plain old fashioned anti-semitism. Especially since every single one of the complaints you make against Israel is either unfounded, wildly exaggerated, or blatantly a double standard you hold Israel and ONLY Israel to.
It's fitting you admit to being a BDS supporter on the anniversary of Kristallnacht, because that's all BDS is. A modern day kristallnacht.
Ah yes, the UN. Comprised of bastions of integrity such as the UNRWA and which condemns israel more than every other country on the face of the earth combined while completely ignoring genocides in Africa and horrific human rights violations in every single arab country. Unsurprising given that the UN bodies which most frequently condemn Israel are generally dominated BY those same arab countries, who are more than happy to claim the jews murder children and use their blood to make matza on official UN record.
Maybe because I'm not on drugs so strong they make me think that siding with the group whose governments publicly quote the protocols of the elders of zion, who publicly claim all jews murder babies and use their blood to make matza every passover, who were led through multiple wars of genocide by literal nazis, are somehow the "good guys".
Yeah it's TOTALLY not Hamas firing thousands of rockets or kidnapping people or bombing civilian targets even during supposed "ceasefires" that breaks ceasefires. Totally. You realise you're supposed to at least PRETEND not to have a blatant double standard right?
If Israel wanted peace they would stop building the settlements (as they are the first thing to go after any lasting agreement) and stop breaking cease-fires. As long as Israel is settling, it doesn't want peace.
What was the excuse in 48? 67? 73? Israel has already offered every single thing demanded by the palestinians except for the eradication of the jewish race and the state of Israel, every single time it was refused. Israel also unilaterally pulled out of gaza and took all the settlers with them, but left all the infrastructure they'd build. It got them nothing but another war front with an even more violent enemy whose own government charter explicitly quotes the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and calls for total genocide.
There is no peace because the arabs don't want peace, they want to kill all the jews. Something they're perfectly willing to admit openly when crowds of hundreds chant "Slaughter The Jews" in sweden, or when the governments of the surrounding 30+ arab states make official broadcasts claiming the jews murder babies and use their blood to make matza every passover, or on their children's television programs where they have suicide bomber characters encouraging martyrdom and hosts praising kids that say they want to wipe out the jews... all of which never seems to make it into western media.
And now you've crossed from uninformed to delusional. Israel has offered the palestinians every single demand they've ever made, even the Saudis walked away from the camp david accords placing sole blame on Arafat. Hamas doesn't make peace offers, they demand ceasefires which they promptly ignore and then bitch when the Israelis respond.
I mean the hospitals where the Palestinian and western doctors were working, and giving first-hand accounts of how the Israelis were bombing them even as they were telling the Israeli officials on the phone that they were filled with non-combatant civilians. They reported all of this in the British medical journals, in Haaretz, and in the reports afterwards by human rights groups.
You mean the hospitals evacuated well ahead of time by the IDF, which were caught on video firing weapons at civilians? The ones that were lied about by the same people and "human rights groups" whose employees name their kids "knives of jerusalem"?
As I said, I used to work in Israeli PR. I used to write the lies that you now believe.
Considering you're so uninformed that you literally don't know the first thing about the history of the region, the mandate and partition, or even the most basic information about the governments involved I doubt that.
Launching thousands of rockets and bombs at civilians is an act of war too. Hamas exists, per its own government charter, in a state of perpetual genocide-seeking war with Israel.
As for "hospitals"... you mean the one specifically evacuated well ahead of time and which had been used to fire weapons at Israeli civilians? That one?
It wasn't anyone's land except for the Ottoman Empire, which collapsed, and the jews who legally bought it from them beforehand... even though they were forcibly expelled for being jews. Which was incidentally also why the immigration was "illegal". Hell just BEING jewish was illegal under nazi rule.
I'm an atheist, if they think those are holy sites to their religion then they're holy sites to their religion.
That's the whole point, they weren't and nobody gave a fuck until AFTER the Jews showed up. Then suddenly the arab states not only started claiming jerusalem but even claimed the entire history of judaism in the region never happened. Hell just the last few months they demanded UNESCO erase all jewish history and declare the western wall and other jewish holy sites to be mosques.
Well no shit. The entire identity of "palestine" as it exists today is a total fabrication. The rampant anti-semitism in the region can be pretty directly tied to the mufti importing nazism and tying it into arab nationalism as part of his bid for power.
Cities which were virtually uninhabited, and you could travel through for days without seeing anyone, as per the peel commission and other first hand reports of the region.
1) The territory where israel exists was virtually uninhabited and there was not an arab or even muslim majority in the region for most of history, a fact openly remarked upon by arab historians who lamented the emptiness of their mosques.
2) 80% (probably more) of the land was given to the Arabs even after they refused to participate in drawing up the borders, and they immediately led a massive war of genocide led by a literal toured-auschwitz-and-formed-SS-divisions nazi.
3) Israel already offered that, along with payments and land transfers. It was rejected, even the Saudis walked away placing the entirety of the blame on Arafat. A peace agreement starts with the assumption that freaking genocide is not an option. That's why there hasn't been one yet, just read the Hamas government charter.
Israel completely pulled out of gaza and left everything the settlers built, it got them nothing but Hamas in power and thousands upon thousands of rockets and mortars. Israeli criminals were hunted down by the government and put on trial, not held up as heroes and martyrs. Egypt has a land border with Gaza and is sick of their shit as well, and Israel delivers a frankly silly amount of aid to Gaza alone but it's stolen by Hamas.
Meanwhile the arabs have been calling for the total eradication of the jewish race literally since before Israel existed, and have never stopped. Palestinians are terrorists because their government charter openly quotes the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and calls for genocide, a mandate they carry out by deliberately targeting civilians from behind civilians.
Yeah here's the problem... you're completely wrong about basically everything. First off we've got loads fo documentation going back centuries (incl. arab historians such as Muqaddasi and Ibn Khaldun) of the Jews being one of the only permanent inhabitants of an otherwise desolate malaria ridden shithole that just kept getting conquered and reconquered by various empires.
Second if there were such a thing as a "palestinian" then the term would apply to everyone from the roman region of Syria Palestinia, which by definition would include all of jordan and every jew from the region. Once again there's tons of documentation that the entire concept of an ethnically distinct arab people called "palestinians" is a modern fabrication.
Third the levant is barely mentioned in the quran and primarily in the context of its holiness to the jews, until the arab league started stirring up nationalistic hatred against Israel using Islam as a vehicle nobody gave a fuck about it other than them and there's a couple centuries of edicts from various caliphates and empires backing that up too.
Finally when the british mandate ended the arabs were invited to the table to help draw up the partition and refused. The british STILL gave the ARABS over 80% of the land and called it "Jordan". The tiny remaining sliver was named "Israel" and given to the Jews since most of that land had been legally purchased from the ottomans before the collapse of the ottoman empire or was otherwise unowned land that had been settled and developed. Remember the entire world population was barely over a billion and the middle east was so utterly uninhabited that everyone from Mark Twain to the Peel Commission made a big point out of how absolutely desolate it was.
If you want to know why the "palestinian" population is so inflamed just watch their television, read their leaders' statements, and take a look at their official government charters. You'll see children's shows which advocate genocide, leaders preaching that the jews murder babies and use their blood to make matza, and their governments' charters citing the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and calling for the eradication of all jews everywhere.
We're talking about a group of people proven to be blatantly violating almost every law we have and the constitution. You really think they wouldn't just lie about this too?

It's ALWAYS going to be mostly white as long as people keep making other races "white" to prop up the agenda they're pushing.
I do believe I have a right to be secure in my person, papers, etc against an unreasonable search or siezure...

Actually we pay more collectively to the arab states than we do to Israel, just to keep them from bitching.

Netanyahu isn't aligning with the republicans, he's being ostracized by a democrat party increasingly dominated by intifada supporting anti semites.
Tell me does that apply to Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and other countries founded around the same time as well? Or just the jewish state?
We're talking about a group of people proven to be blatantly violating almost every law we have and the constitution. You really think they wouldn't just lie about this too?
