[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.

i'm not israeli, and the iron dome is required because of the many terrorists in the area who want to commit holocaust 2.0 (which USA is against)
Iron dome prioritises based on where missiles are likely to land.
Could be that the missiles getting through are landing on empty ground
israel signaling that there will be no immediate response
'response will be different this time'
'appropriate time and place'
I'm not 100% sure, you could be right.
Im just calling out obv bullshit as I have been doing on this very website since the Iraq War.
Striking only military targets seems justified given the circumstances.
The way they've been using it, Israel with a depleted military is a good thing for the region and rest of the world.
neither of you has any hope of knowing what was and was not targeted ten minutes after a 200 rocket barrage
I didn't know there are international football games going on.
I think another wave is en route
saying they took out the air base that has caused so much death
