It‘s more difficult than that because people may not be doing this voluntarily
But I agree, this *does* make civilian deaths more justifiable. Not because it‘s their own fault for entering the conflict, but because it simply isn‘t avoidable when these tactics are used by Hamas. It sucks but what can Israel realistically do? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Probably not quite 0 but certainly a lot closer to it than they would like us to believe. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
If there's no control over the hostages, then they're not hostages. lol
Hostages exist to fulfill a condition and those conditions can't be met if you can't do something as simple as knowing where they are or coordinating to get that information. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
If they can't count hostages ho can they count victims? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

problem is, a lot of people actually believe that as truth, vehemently so. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
I think you are forgetting they have been the government in the country for the past 20 years. Of course they control and have a base of people maintaining that control.
Just because they are terrorists - it doesn't mean you should excuse them and believe their lies | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

wow... goes to show Hamas is either lying or has no central organisation! well, they're terrorists and murderers after all, using their own people as shields, what can you expect from them? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
So there are no hostages? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Welcome to the genocidal justification. Up and downvotes isn't a good metric, especially not in spaces where propaganda machines operate. The whole situation is so fucked and the crimes being committed is going to take decades to hold anyone accountable to any degree. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Because that’s where Hamas dug their tunnels & where they operate from? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
You can try kill Hamas without attacking civs like Israel have done.
They would upset the ic too much then. So instead they carpet bomb smaller stuff and middle strike refugee camps | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
The world could see it and it still wouldn’t change the minds of Hamas simps at college campuses and a certain subreddit. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
> You can try kill Hamas without attacking civs
You could, if Hamas wasn’t using civilians as shields. Since they are, then you either accept that there’s collateral damage or accept that Hamas will remain, and Israel seems done with the first. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |

Via NK .. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Yup. Nations do this stuff all the time. The US found many loopholes like this before getting directly involved in WW2.
In the middle of the war, the US transported planes across the Canadian border with horses and "dropped them off" in Canada where Canada ended up taking those planes to send to the UK. The US didn't give the planes to UK, the UK took them across the Atlantic without the US approval. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Are we worried if oligarchs are paying $500,000 too much for a Bentley and both GB and Azerbaijan are profiting from it? Especially as, when they need spare parts, they going to find it twice as hard and expensive again. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

China has most of the world's market share for chemical precursors so statistically speaking most drugs and medications are going to be made with precursors that originated from China. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

I know you’re trying to stay on their good side bud really you should just stop trusting Xi. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
That's close to what happened. Under the Neutrality Act, an at war country receiving planes had to take delivery of them in the US and they could not be given to that country's military officials. This law designed to keep the US out of the war by Congress because the country was pretty isolationist at the time.
To counteract this, cross border airports were constructed between the US and Canada. The US would land the plane on their side of the runway. Then, Canadian civilian farmers would come down across the border with whatever they had (often horses but sometimes tractors or other vehicles) to tow the plane back across the border to the Canadian runway. There, Canadian military personnel would take the plane and get it where it needed to be. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Not much moral ambiguity for the US sending weapons to the UK during ww2 but lots for China arming the Russians | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

Truly r/satisfyingasfuck | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Yeah. America joined WW1 because Germany attacked American shipping, because Germany wanted to blockade Britain, because Britain joined WW1 to defend Belgium and France, because France was in WW1 as she was allied with Russia, because Russia was in WW1 to protect Serbia from Austria-Hungary, and Austria-Hungary wanted to invade Serbia because a Serbian assassinated their heir.
Each step of the chain of events is logical and reasonable. But if you look at the ultimate cause, America joined WW1 to... defend Serbia from an angry Austria-Hungary. That is a very poor reason to have 116k dead Americans. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

> This the same Xi who told Obama that he wouldn’t militarise the man made islands in South China Sea?
The same Obama who said "There would be no boots on the ground in Syria", but broke it by sending US Special Forces to Syria?

You are so wrong it’s not even funny.
By 1918 the Russian army had surrendered and the French army was in and out of mutiny
The German empire very much would have won the war or at least signed a favorable peace treaty with France and Britain giving Germany territorial concessions
The influx of American reinforcements was the determining factor to the entente victory
Edit: of course I’m not trying to discount the actions of the rest of the entente but objectively the American entry into the war was the turning point | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

In 1996 Korea had the *second highest rate of alcohol consumption in the world*. It has gotten better in recent years, in 2016 it was only number 36.
The *alcohol* is the primary reason for their high rates of stomach cancer. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
How actually spicy are these? They don't give the scoville rating anywhere in the story. I've done the Cully's Worlds Hottest Noodle challenge which was essentially just noodles in Carolina Reapers mash so I can't imagine these are much worse. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
I lived in Korea for years. Soju doesn't help, but soju mixed with kimchi is awful for you.
If alcohol was the primary reason you'd think that the 35 countries with higher alcohol consumption would have high levels of gastric cancer as well, right? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
It's not just the capsaicin, it's the salt and fermentation along with the peppers.
But your post specifically mentioned kimchi. I eat kimchi everyday, but in small doses. It is correlated with stomach and gastric cancers. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Vikings ate campfire cooked, spice-less food. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Never been myself but I'd love to visit.
You might be right. I don't know about the effect of alcohol+kimchi on stomach cancer vs alcohol alone.
However, the more relavant data would be the rate of *heavy* drinking, not total consumption. A country where *every* single person has 2 drinks per week might have a higher rate of consumption than every other country combined, and yet still have lower stomach cancer, if stomach cancer is only caused by heavy drinking.
Whereas a country where 95% of the popultion doesn't drink at all and the other 5% drink enough to put the country high on the list of consumption per capita would have higher rates of cancer.
But I don't know if that data is available. The consumption per capita is only a imperfect (or maybe even very skewed) proxy for heavy drinking.
Also, cancer doesn't develop overnight. E.g. if you were #2 in the world for 30 years (for example, I don't know about how much Koreans drank before 1996), and then dropped to #38, the effect of that 30 years of drinking is going to lag a bit. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |

US/Sullivan is very obviously on the Israel's side so obviously that's obviously the official position.
This is how all these negotiations work.

I know that Ukrainians have died to preserve democracy, and to ensure their freedom. History is on the side of Ukraine, and her people. So many will tear down what they cannot create, when they could be welcomed instead. So be it. Slava Ukraini, the world is watching, and with you. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Okay, can anyone update me on how things are going for Ukraine? I watched a video of an Austrian officer explaining how things are going right now for Ukraine as of two weeks ago. His language was very concerning. Ukraine has lost several patriot batteries to the Russians using very large, high explosive glide bombs. Ukraine can’t hold on well due to the bombs being dropped on Ukrainian positions and there is no capability for them to counter them. When they do try to counter them, their western precision weapons get jammed by Russian electronic signal jammers?
It really sucks that Ukraine now has so many disadvantages except for the will to fight. It is so incredibly painful and unfair for the soldiers and civilians. I want nothing for Christmas than for Russia to implode and destroy itself to give Ukrainians a chance to be a sovereign state without bullying molestation. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
I think Ukraine lost like two Patriot launchers so far. Certainly not several batteries. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
I don't think Ukraine has lost any patriot batteries, so you probably watched some russian propaganda, if you did watch a real video that said that. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
Spicy | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
They didn’t lose several patriot batteries, just one I think. Anyway yea the austrian guy has a good non biased assessment. The front on the kharkiv direction seems to be stabilized for now. However Russia will keep fighting, they are waging war with 10% of gdp I think. During WW2 countries were spending close to 40%. Also apparently russians don’t care about the war, they are ok with it. Sadly I think the only way ukraine wins at this point is direct nato involvement which is probably not going to happen. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-14-06 |
