Because that cost is not just hardware of manufacturing, it’s also the very large amount of RD and software your paying for also, no different then buying a computer, you can build it cheaper but good luck doing anything with it if it has no OS on it.

They’re receiving an Iranian version of the stinger missile, the designator name eludes me but you can google for footage of this exact drone being downed. The missile airburst near enough to the drone for the shockwave to break internal/external components and degrade flight capability. Inertial navigation as well as visual/ir nav takes over even if encrypted GPS is jammed, but in this situation would only attempt to re-gain altitude resulting in a softer landing that breaks the fuselage rather than vaporization as expected from both a direct hit and direct ground impact. Make sense?

I think the model of being able to fight a war on two fronts is a bit outdated tbh. War has evolved beyond a struggle for territory land… and there are wars being fought everyday on a multitude of fronts.
Right now, we’ve got the proxy war being fought against Russia in Ukraine… the economic and trade war with China… and the diplomatic war in the Middle East.
It’s a really complicated situation and you need that defence spending to act as a deterrent rather than just as a tool to enable you to fight a war on two fronts.

I'm not exactly sure either. Only thing I can think of is the engine and/or control surfaces were damaged, but not bad enough to immediately crash the plane, and it just gradually lost altitude. The crew most likely would have attempted to drive the plane nose first into the ground if they didn't think the plane was going to make it back home, so I would imagine the plane lost link, and it just did it best to stay in the air until it just couldn't anymore.

Doesn't really matter, thos gives the Iranians, the Chinese and the Russians a Reaper drone to reverse engineer.
Although considering Iran showcased its own high technology drone years ago and yet are shipping basically Volkswagen engines with wings to Russia, I doubt they have the capability of reverse engineering this craft.

That still relies on being able to take down every single anti-air installation in the region, which as we can see with the houthis, is a lot more difficult than it might seem, even against a poorly equipped army. And you don't need anything as expensive as an S-300 to reach it, most sovjet anti-air weapons bigger than a manpad should be able to reach that height.
Still though, my main point was just that it's a slow propeller-craft, it's basically a sitting duck for anything that can reach it.

Solar/wind combined with advances in modern energy storage will replace all other energy sources. However after Fukushima and to a lesser degree San Onofre’s failures nuclear energy stock prices plummeted and were bought up by hedge funds. Now for the last decade we have seen a “nuclear green energy” campaign remarkably similar to that of the “clean coal” from 20-30 years ago. It’s everywhere on social media, some of these people may also be heavily invested in these stocks as well but the primary source is hedge funds.

“In a major clean energy benchmark, wind, solar, and hydro exceeded 100% of demand on California's main grid for 69 of the past 75 days.”
This is the progress we have seen so far. The problem is there is so much more money to be made in nuclear’s $155 per MwH compared to those renewables closer to $40.

I doubt it. By the time land based sources of uranium become a concern, technology for seawater extraction will be many iterations ahead. Uranium isn’t “renewable”, but at that point it will be near inexhaustible. Not to mention breeder reactors and similar technology currently being tested. As someone in the industry, running out of uranium is the least of our concerns.

Israel hasn't killed half of Hamas members. Even Israel hasn't claimed this. Where are you pulling this number from ? Israel can kill all 20,000 Hamas and Hamas will still be back because their brain is in Qatar and few other middle eastern countries. They just need people. Based on the way how things have unfolded, Hamas will have no problem getting men, it may take few years, but they will have no problem with it. Hamas doesn't need experienced men to fight, they need someone motivated enough to cause chaos.

Again and again people try to make this “point”. There are civilians with family in Israel who are dead and do not hate Palestinians. In fact right before this war there were countless programs taking place around the areas the MULTIPLE massacres happened to help Palestinians in the name of peace. Why is it okay for them to be perpetually angry? If Israelis constantly give, Gaza in 2005, there was never an Israeli terrorist attack in Gaza meanwhile Palestinians working in Israel stab Israelis so often it’s in the news at least once a week (before the 7th). Why is it okay for them to continue their hate and expect for Israelis to deal with them?

I mean, yeah there is a lot of precedent for beating the bejeezus out of a people until they effectively become downtrodden enough that they stop fighting back. Virtually all of these cases have been seen in retrospect as genocides and atrocities though. Native Americans, Aboriginal Australians, etc.
So the current war plan could work, I agree with you on that, though it will take many, many years - probably at least a hundred, if past examples are an indicator. The current generation will, however, need to accept that their grandchilden, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren (as well as history as a whole) will almost certainly see them as the ones being in the wrong.

Oct 7th quite literally happened 6 months ago and in the 80s Israel had already won at least a dozen wars with its neighbouring countries. So what do you say when someone constantly wages war at you and loses, since your inception? Let’s make peace? They did! They tried. Oct 7th happened. Those border towns they attacked had people who were more pro-peace than most Israelis. They attacked a music festival for peace. What are you saying?

It doesn't matter if they assemble, because they won't have the weapons to do anything about it. That's why I said "demilitarized".
Sure, maybe there could be a few random knife attacks a year. But that is negligible compared to an active military force. So Israel will be fine with that negligible amount of attacks.
Also, it worked on the Germans and Japan after WW2.

If a state is ruthless enough - and we're talking Russians in Chechnya level or higher - then the insurgents eventually run out of people willing to die for the cause. Possibly as most of the people are dead or expelled.
The Normans took nine years to do it and killed an awful lot of people, but they effectively subjugated England and could operate effectively through loyal nobles after that. Bar the 11-year Commonwealth, the system of government established in 1066 remains, albeit heavily changed, to this day. I am typing this post in a language heavily influenced by Norman French, after all.
The Native American rebellions were crushed and the tribes had to accept being moved to reservations.

Hamas makes very simple rockets from pipes. They can keep making them indefinitely. Especially with support from Iran. This conflict could go on until the whole world is dragged in. And even if Israel completes its campaign in Gaza, the whole Muslim world will resent them even more. Israel is in a really tough spot but that doesn’t mean they should go all in on a mistake.

Nazism in Germany was not defeated because of the number of bombs that were dropped. It was eradicated because the Allies did the hard work afterwards to rebuild Germany and helped build a functioning civil society based on Democratic values. Or to put it differently, they demonstrated that Democracy was a better idea.
I really don’t understand why people are struggling with understanding that…

Trump has no balls. And no concept of worrying about consequences for everyone involved. Yes Biden is a million times better in every way. Wages are up above inflation. Thinking of what Trump would have done in response to the global conflict is a nightmare

I love it when Westerners who only have experience with Christianity decide that all of the flaws of Christianity can be applied to all of the thousands of diverse religious, spiritual, and ethnoreligious traditions of a thousand and one cultures spanning the globe. It definitely doesn’t reek of ignorance, arrogance, or lack of understanding of how intertwined religious practices and cultural traditions often are, or of how Christianity is not how all religions work
