You're right in that these changes usually are cyclical, although on a much larger time frame. We're supposed to be in a cooling phase right now and we're warming with really no known natural constraining factor, that's the reason climatologists are alarmed.

Correct, we are talking about man made climate change, so we are looking at our effect on the climate and we've only been pumping out CO2 on a large scale for about a century. The sun's output is cyclical and in the past when we've seen (through proxy data) irradiance drop, we usually see the...

1) Solar irradiance has been dropping for decades and our temperature is rising for some reason 2) Scientists can see from satellites that infrared is being blocked by CO2 and ground sensors can see bounced radiation returning to earth 3) The isotope ratio of the excess CO2 has the signature...

https://www.lansingfuneralhome.com/obituaries/douglas-dake Dake's father passed away, only 62, damn that's young. Not sure how this is going to affect Kyle at trials.

He says it was his injuries, and that there's no doubt that he could of made weight. Really surprised he didn't take an olympic red shirt this year.

The problem is that something that seems like common sense and logical to one person may not to another. In cases where there are conflicting rights, it's the courts job to discern which rights take precedence and if reasonable accommodations can be made. I'm an Atheist myself, and I see some...

Alcohol and Tobacco are regulated commodities and not guaranteed rights like religion. Granted, even guaranteed rights can face reasonable regulation in the interest of public safety. If you're going down route you're going to need to show the actual data and legal precedence that would outweigh...

Sounds like Stalinism light. Wouldn't such a ban infringe upon the free exercise of religion? I would concede that the schools would still need to follow state standards on curriculum to be accredited but the teaching of religion should not be banned outright.

Looks like aid trucks are moving in now, everyone on edge of course. More are needed! https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/8/more-than-300-aid-trucks-enter-gaza-as-palestinians-battle-starvation https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/jordan-sends-land-convoy-humanitarian-145634415.html

The former is more believable right now, but you're right, monumental fuck up if they were actually trying to intimidate aid agencies! I can't possibly think they'd be that dumb.

Bibi made the announcement that they would open: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68737846 So Biden has actual specific terms now that he can use to withhold aid. If Biden bluffs at this then his base will make him pay for it come November, so I don't think he has much of a choice...

If they're goal was to starve Gaza they chose the wrong path by killing the foreign aid workers, now those corridors will open.

Yes, if his aim was starvation, it would be a strange tactic to intentionally kill foreign aid workers knowing what would happen. Now he has to open those corridors.

They're at sea level though!

It looks like they failed with that attack then: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-netanyahu-phone-call-israel-world-central-kitchen-strike-gaza/ "The Erez Crossing in northern Gaza, which has not been open since the start of the conflict, will be opened. The Port of Ashdod will be opened...

I was trying to understand it from their point of view, and if complete ethnic cleansing was their goal I don't think killing foreign aid workers from countries that support them would be the most strategic move. I think that Bibi knows there's a tipping point here, and killing foreign nationals...

If anyone has followed any of my posts they'll know that I am generally no fan of Likud and have outright contempt for them. That being said, I understand that the right in Israel isn't some monolithic body and while some of the ultra conservatives would want that plan, I would be shocked if the...

Apologies, I just finished replying to another user that seemed angry that I was giving Israel the benefit of the doubt and I read yours too hastily. I'm not really invested in either side and have received agreement and accusations from both sides of the aisle actually lol.

Oh so you've 'Liked' dozens of posts of a full blown colonizer LOL. I've given the Israelis and the Palestinians the benefit of the doubt on a number of occasions and each time I'm met with vitriol and name calling from the posters that previously liked my posts. This place is truly insane.

LOL someone else said the same thing when I argued that Gazan's only supported Hamas because they were seen as the only ones fighting Israeli colonization and dehumanization in Gaza! 'They support terrorism, look at the polls, why do you support terrorists, when they show you what they are...
