Depends. Everyone who voted against Trump knows this and it’s probably why they did but most non voters and maga are still ignorant.

Fun fact, Solar City, a company owned by Elon musk, is infamous for signing people up for lengthy solar panel leases and refusing to repair them if they break.

Right now, without China, solar would be unaffordable by anyone but the rich in America.

You want to know the history, read.

If you’re talking about the base population of Palestine being held being held captive, maybe Hamas should’ve accepted sovereignty and a two state when it was on the table of using humanitarian funds to build a tunnel network and military headquarters under schools and hospitals they can launch missiles at Israel from.

What Israel is doing is cruel and they are going to reap this karma for decades if not centuries to come but because of the nature of war it is more justifiable to completely annihilate and enemy than to leave them standing given such history, because this enemy does not accept peace, wants global jihad, has equal capacity for cruelty, and is just as zealous if not more than they are sometimes.

According to Sun Tzu, if it gets down to this, when you cannot win against this foe through diplomacy, if you do not crush the enemy entirely they will simply regroup and try again. He learned that during a time in China where kingdoms were being established and genocide wasn’t considered a war crime but a punishment for losing a war without accepting defeat. This what Israel is facing. You could say the times are different but in this way, war never changes.

This war reveals the harshest truths about humanity. If you think peace is achievable, it’s not anymore without finishing the war because of how clear it is to Israel and Palestine right now that they would rather die or kill than live with each other in anxiety and fear.

Maybe but I feel I’ve made it worse sometimes too.

There’s a couple sayings. ‘The smart man sounds like crazy man to the stupid man’ and ‘You can’t win an argument with an idiot’.

As complex as it can be, it usually boils down to that or you just find out they’re rich, selfish, like control, and love schadenfreude.

I’m sorry but I’ve heard Jews and Palestinians outside of Israel complain about Hamas specifically for a very long time and I can’t believe they genuinely want peace because they still have hostages, considering Israel said this conflict will end when the hostages are released many times now and offered to make Palestine a sovereign state seven times over in the past for Hamas to reject it.

Israel is angry at Hamas like they never have been before and it seems to me Hamas only wants peace now because they’re losing and are afraid.

My bad, I thought it was temporary not lasting.

That said I stand by my doubts that this will end without total annihilation on either side. Israel can’t forgive Hamas or Hamas Israel without either side literally changing theirs beliefs and values which ain’t happening.

It’s like October made Israel snap and escalate their mindset to, ‘this isn’t over until they are, no more peace only war’ which is where Palestine has been since the 40s.

I consider the current conflict having started in October 2022 because a lot of these ceasefires feel more like a pause in a war not the end of a war. Wars end with leaders dead or lasting agreements.
