Remember the MOAB in Afghanistan? Iranian terrorist general? 4 years of No theatre expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gives people a chance to talk, but it is a failure and will continue to be. Fundamentally flawed? Yes. Bloated? Yes. Useless? No. Countries still do pay attention to the UN and at least try to justify their actions. It is certainly possible that a world without a UN would be even worse.

Justice Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 2 minutes ago, sherpa said: It always amazes me when people state things that have absolutely nothing to do with the point they seek to refute. I never claimed anything regarding the US vis a vis an opinion that the UN is a useless organization in matters such as this. It has systemic problems that cannot be solved with the current structure of the organization, and is, thus, useless. It gives people a chance to talk, but it is a failure and will continue to be. I agree. It is a failure. Because everyone has their one agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I know how this is gonna sound but that recording can be from anybody. This is not proof of anything. Is it possible it’s real? Yeah… maybe. It isn’t evidence though.

The world needs a functioning body that comes near the stated objectives of the UN. This group and it's structure is not, and is useless in these situations. What it is is a spy haven. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving the planet Another useless endeavor. Might be a worthy objective, but they have countless, useless viewpoints with absolutely no reasonable ability to do anything. Doubt that? Watch how China would react to anything regarding its gross environmental posture, which extends from the sea to the land to space. The UN is a very expensive, totally useless noisemaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ferguson forever Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Breaking self imposed quarantine to link this important article from an interesting perspective. Heard Terry Gross interview the author of this piece on NPR. He gives the perspective of a top hamas politician while remaining objective. Nothing rationalizes the barbarism and slaughter that has occurred imo. https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/what-was-hamas-thinking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I'll try to be nice: please, please try to understand "blast analysis" before you comment. I'll put it simply: a JDAM makes a huge crater, propagates enormous over-pressure, has a very particular impact acoustic, and doesn't create an orange-red fireball. Go find available pics of the impact crater; it is TINY. Review the video you posted earlier. Look at the cars: they would be flat as pancakes from a JDAM. Zero question: this is impact via high order explosion from an unburnt glucose-nitrate (or other double-base) rocket motor, with secondary burn effects. Relating to your other comments: sorry you feel this way, and will simply reply "wa 'alaykum salam".
