About Rafa?

Thanks for the sources.

I should’ve clarified. They aren’t currently using uniforms. As in, in the fighting since the 7th of October. They justify it themselves in interviews and you can see it in videos of theirs.

It does not matter whether they are doing it now, later or in the past. My point is: both sides are purposefully blending in society of the Palestinian people and that Hamas does indeed have their own military uniforms.

About the pictures, this article shows them. Reuters also mentioned them, but it’s written they haven’t verified them yet.

So it is not verified yet or is it? As long as it is not verified by someone else than Israel or Hamas, how certain can we as viewers and readers be? Israel is known for lying to the entire world. Few examples of their lies:

1. IDF found a calendar in Arabic, not a Hamas ‘names list’ at hospital

2. Israeli soldier claims Arabic calendar is Hamas ‘guardian list’

3. Watching the watchdogs: Babies and truth die together in Israel-Palestine

And that isn’t the IDF, it’s the Israeli police’s counter-terrorism unit.

Making a distinct between IDF and their police unit does not matter. Israel is doing it as well. That’s my point. Therefore you cannot only ‘point fingers’ to Hamas.

Honestly my whole point of argument is; there’s no justifying what Israel has been doing since 7 October. Way (way) to many innocent Palestinian civillains have been murdered by Israel with very little ‘‘victory’’ for Israel. Israel’s PM goal is not achievable at all. Because Hamas will forever exist as long as Israel is the occupier, stealing land, illegal settlements, Apartheid and everything else they do towards the Palestinian people.

Deif is right after Sinwar in the chain of command in Gaza. Rafa Salama, the commander of the Khan Younis Brigade, was also targeted in that strike. The attack was on a fenced Hamas compound. I’ve seen they already published satellite pictures from before and after the strike.

You claim something but provide no evidence for the readers of your comment. So where’s the evidence? I’m curious. Any article I find writes only about Deif being the target, here’s one of them written on 13 July 2024:

Who is Mohammed Deif, Hamas military commander targeted by Israel?

From the article:

It is not yet known if Deif was killed in the Israeli strike that targeted him Saturday

Israel’s military says it targeted Mohammed Deif, the commander of Hamas’s military wing, in a strike Saturday.

Israel said Saturday that it targeted Mohammed Deif, the shadowy Hamas military leader, in an operation in the Mawasi area of southern Gaza. There was no immediate confirmation that Deif was killed, but the strikes on an area packed with displaced people left at least 90 Palestinians dead and 300 injured, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

Your next text:

I’ve seen they already published satellite pictures from before and after the strike

You have already ‘seen’ it but provide no link to the source of your claim where you’ve seen it. Provide a source; otherwise, it’s just a rumor or a lie.

And so far I haven’t seen reports that distinguish between combatants and civilians. Either way Hamas combatants usually don’t wear uniforms. You can see it in the videos they publish.

Not entirely true either: Israel Sought to Contain Hamas for Years. Now It Faces a Potentially Costly Fight to Eliminate It.

The article is paywalled but the article is not the point, the image they use is. It shows how Hamas dresses usually. Sometimes they do wear normal clothes, just as IDF soldiers do. Did you forget what IDF did? Let me remind you:

1. Israeli special forces disguised as doctors kill three militants at West Bank hospital

2. Israeli troops dressed as civilians and medics kill three during raid on West Bank hospital.

3. Israeli special forces dressed as Palestinian refugees for hostage rescue: Sources.

Even ‘‘better’’, here’s a video of IDF dressed as women in action:

4. Israeli Forces Dressed as Women and Medics Storm West Bank Hospital | VOA News

So all the ones killed are Hamas combatants.

Ah yeah, just like they bombed the refugee camps and everything else they did?

1. Strapped down, blindfolded, held in diapers: Israeli whistleblowers detail abuse of Palestinians in shadowy detention center. Were all these people who got humiliated from Hamas?

2. Death toll in Israeli attack on displaced Palestinians in Rafah rises to 45.

Were all these people in Rafah who were bombed and murdered ‘‘Hamas’’? Was the child who got beheaded a Hamas member? The video is still somewhere on Instagram but Instagram is restricting all accounts with it.

3. Israeli forces’ systemic denial of fair trial rights to Palestinian child prisoners amounts to arbitrary detention.

Where are these people ‘‘Hamas’’?

4. Israel prevents hundreds of worshippers from entering Al-Aqsa on first night of Ramadan.

Or these people that just wanted to go to Al-Aqsa for their religion.

5. Israel’s PM Netanyahu ‘proud’ of preventing establishment of a Palestinian state.

Not to forget about their PM being proud of this.

6. Far-right minister says nuking Gaza an option, PM suspends him from cabinet meetings.

But it is okay to say that you want to literally oblirated a whole race, right? /s

7. Israel Defense Minister Calls Palestinians ‘Human Animals’ Amid Israeli Aggression.

It’s okay to call other people ‘‘human animals’’, just like the Nazi’s did back in WW2 about the Jewish people.

8. Video shows Israeli settler trying to take over Palestinian house.

Not to forget about this.

I upvoted your comment because I agree with it! On a serious note you are right though.

I’ll look into that! I’m a bit wary of trying these things on iPhone though.

I have no idea about coding and such. However? It is a cool idea and would be fun to use Apollo again (if that’s possible).

I really like Lemmy but some of the subreddits are not in here. Or they are but empty/ death.

Careful the Thought police might get to you, 1984 book.

Z-library was a massive pirate repository for ebooks.

It still is. The site is still up and running, they even upgraded their system to have Telegram Bots for its users.

The only thing that could get me a little bit of LeagueOfLegends feeling is Hades 2. Though not even that can give me similar dopamine as LeagueOfLegends does.

I honestly think there’s no replacement for it unfortunately. So I suppose, got to just detox and get used to the lower dopamine from games (speaking about myself).

I have been trying to get into Medium for a while now. It seems okay but lacks a lot quality content and their website somehow do not give me recent blogs. The site always gives me blogs from 2017-2020, never from 2024.

The site is immensely paywalled, almost all articles are paid. Now if the articles/ content was actually decent, I might’ve paid. However, sadly it is not and there’s a way to read the premium articles for free. So there’s that.

Been trying to find other places to read blogs but can’t seem to find a good place.

I’m not a fan of Tate and don’t like him at all but I have never once seen actual evidence of the claims. Which I find odd.

If he truly did all these horrifying things, he should be sent to prison for good. However, I haven’t seen a single evidence of any claims. Perhaps it’s me not looking the right way.

• Recently finished Cyberpunk 2077. For all its hype, I found it a mediocre/ generic game.
• I’m trying to get into Baldur’s Gate 3 but it seems, it just is not my type of game (first D&D). Might also have to do with the fact, I tried to replace LeagueOfLegends with Baldur’s Gate.
• (re)playing Last of Us 1 (remake version on PC). Stays a great game.
• Debating whether to quit Returnal and play another game such as Alan Wake 2 or Hellblade 2.

I’m also trying to find a isometric/ top-down game to replace LeagueOfLegends with. But no luck.

Slewfoot… That you?

Haven’t checked the video because the comments say enough. Though perhaps here are three takes;

• Make prices decent and not €70 for a 8 years old game.
• Decent hardware that allows at least 60FPS.
• Have decent joycons (I keep reading that there are issues with it).

Though, doesn’t matter for me. Will never purchase a console or game from that shit company. Rather put on the eyepatch for this company.

Unfortunately and sadly doesn’t surprise me anymore. All big platforms (Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, YouTube, Pinterest and such) are allowing hateful stuff towards Palestinian people.

However when someone criticizes Israel government and their genocide. Your comment, video or anything else gets removed within A day. Even if it is not even related to the entire thing.

I have a Pinterest account and have a Palestinian board and it got twice removed for “hate speech” while it shows nothing of hate. Merely Palestinian things such as flags, clothes, people and such.

It’s pretty obvious that social media as a whole is just a corrupt mess.

I will never ever fucking purchase a console or game of that shit company. I will always pirate and emulate.

People wouldn’t pirate so much if their prices were not so high and their console itself not so trash. If they made a decent product and decent prices, many would’ve purchased it.

But €70 for Mario Kart that’s approximately 8 years old and on an outdated console? No thanks. Not to mention them suing people and such.

Gosh, I hate that company.

So, what has this story to do with my own comment?

Yeah, I’m. For multiple reasons;

• In Arabian culture, one doesn’t leave until marriage.
• I’m still in university (almost finished tho).
• Parents have health problems therefore, I’ll stay longer to take care for them.
• House prices are insanely high (both renting and purchasing).

I’m living in Europe though but my dad is from a Arabian country and well, culture stayed with him. Anyway, I’d help a lot at home. Household things, helping with groceries, medication and such.

That said, I don’t care what anyone says about still living at home and not on my own. There will be always a chance to get an apartment but people often forget; parents won’t be here forever. One day they’ll pass away. Never forget that.

Very few people are downloading the big-name console games ported over to iPhone in the last year – and an even smaller number are paying $15-50 to unlock the full games.

I mean… What did they expect? Playing on either console or PC is most of the time, the go to. Plays much smoother, bigger screen and perhaps better FPS.

Playing on a iPhone means smaller screen, bothersome controls (sure you can connect your controller to it but then just play on console/PC). Not to mention the article wrote about “to unlock the full games” which I assume means, you’ll have to pay for the game plus pay within the game for certain things(?).

The game is only playable on iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max and high-end iPads.

This might also have to do with it, not everyone immediately purchases the newest iPhone (and then purchasing a game that is much better to be played on console/ PC).

There was more I wanted to quote from the article but have to hurry for work.

With everything that’s going on in the world, I feel like “freedom of speech” doesn’t exist. It’s just a “buzz”.

Just to name a few things;

• You want to criticize Israel? Antisemitism!
• You want to criticize US-related Israel things? Antisemitism!
• You want to provide evidence of crimes? That’s a ‘crime’!
• You are against killing innocent people? Antisemitism!
• You want to protest? You disrupt the order and therefore a crime!

Perhaps it is just me being pessimistic.
