    He’s a neonazi man.

    posted stuff about lynching people, camps, pro reich

    don’t bother. He uses that stuff as a veil but he’s an absolute vile human being that makes the best case for things like abortion being employed

    Even now @basso is posting lies about the girls school

    imagine being twisted enough to take glee in hundreds of little girls being slaughtered

    but it’s something he cheers in Gaza so no surprise.

    Well yes

    I believe the 1500 or so Israelis killed in the horrible attack on Oct 7 was horrific

    Israeli occupation, genocide of 70000 gazans is also horrific and on a pure death basis it's worse .

    Well it's not apples to apples .

    Both countries did horrible things in the war , and for both countries it was existential (at one point) But the situation is complicated because US was fighting multiple enemies and Japan was fighting multiple enemies.

    US dropped the bombs , had internment camps

    Japan tortured POWs and did HORRIBLE things in China .

    Dropping the bomb could easily be considered a war crime , at the very least it's debatable . At least in that case Japan was still resisting.

    Are Palestinians resisting ? I think that's the critical factor . In gaza there are 2 million people . Israeli intelligence says there may be 10-20k hamas fighters .

    This is like 1percent of the population that is resisting .

    Back to your question . The US mightve killed more civilians than Japan . IDK the numbers and like I said it's complicated due to external factors . However I would say per death basis absent context shouldn't be used as a singular measure

    Hegseth set out to rid the military of "woke" culture, and apparently part of that meant eliminating the civilian mitigation teams that were created after strikes killed civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan. Those teams were specifically tasked with preventing exactly what just happened: the U.S. striking a school and killing a bunch of small children. Mistakes happen, yes, but when you remove the very team designed to prevent those mistakes, you are responsible. Before knowing this, I chalked it up to a tragic mistake. Now I consider this negligence, and the people who made that decision bear responsibility for the killing of those kids and the stain it puts on our military.


    Pentagon probe points to U.S. missile hitting Iranian school : NPR

    After a series of fatal strikes involving civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress directed the Pentagon to reduce civilian casualties as part of a 2019 law. During the Biden administration, the Defense Department created the Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response initiative.

    The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90% by Hegseth – work with military commanders on target planning, and making sure that targets are actually military sites. The teams help come up with "no strike" lists, including religious and cultural sites and schools. They have provided details on whether potential target areas have high concentrations of civilians. They have also suggested using precision munitions, or smaller weapons to mitigate harm.

    "At every level, civilian protection has been deprioritized," said Oona Hathaway, a professor of International Law at Yale Law School and the director of its Center for Global Legal Challenges. "A modern army has to fight according to the law, and the law requires that you protect civilians."
