BTW- I re-read the posts from my last ban, and how my post to Victor: "I hope your beeper doesn't go off" was interpretated by some.Just to be clear - I was not threatening Victor and I think it is an LOL interpretation. I was implying Victor is a part of Hezbollah (as a cynical joke because of his stance, not that I believe that he is).It is ridicules that I even must explain
Is it? Israeli has assassinated Americans recently with very minimal media response and no demands from the administration for accountability or justice or revision of policy. You are supporting a regime which has committed genocide and wanton acts of deadly terrorism on civilian populations. In other words you're an evil person. You being evil doesn't mean your literal threat is automatically credible, but it means your death wish against Victor is very credible. In my view, issuing credible death wishes against posters is pretty far beyond the pale.
He was taking the piss, Jasus. Israel isn't committing genocide. Being in the IDF doesn't make one evil by virtue of the fact.

Many agree with your about the overbearing moderation dictating what grown adults can and can't say to each other, but it is what it is.
However, when you post something like "I hope that xyz doesn't happen to you" it's quite ambiguous and can easily be interpreted a certain way, and is often meant in that way. So that one's on you for not being clearer when you know what the rules around here are.

Jal, I don't think you got it. I do not care about being banned. I was a part of the 2+2 community 15 years ago, and left poker altogether around that time. Im happy posting here and debating this issue with people who hold all different viewpoints, but it will make zero impact on me if im not welcomed here. As such, I will be posting how I see fit. I explained the Vic post not for the mod, but for Vic himself and any else that believed I threatened him in any way.
BTW, if I had been interested in doing something to someone, I would not have posted about it on a public forum. that is not the modus operandi we follow (not saying I would ever do something or even capable of doing something)
Just a few almost final numbers from the Lebanon front-
VIc claimed Hezbollah destroyed 36 or 39 Israeli Tanks. in reality 0 (zero) tanks were destroyed. A few were hit, but hardly damaged and all are still in active service.
5 D9 were destroyed, a few more suffered a decent amount of damage. either than that, a few hammers and jeeps were destroyed. Overall, the most one-sided war in history probably.
Scott Ritter was correct on one thing though - we are very very happy it is over. got a business to run here,
He was taking the piss, Jasus. Israel isn't committing genocide. Being in the IDF doesn't make one evil by virtue of the fact.
If not for the rules here, I would have loved to reply to him with one short message - "I hope your beeper doesn't go off" :p
He is more than in his right to call me evil. It's childish and somewhat comes off as a tantrum more than an argument, but it's a fair viewpoint.
hezbollah collapsed about five seconds after the IDF turned their attention to the northern rocket launchers
spent too much time crafting spooky twitter posts of drone footage taken inside israel and not enough time buying non-exploding communication devices
if Hezbollah had actually collapsed then your settlers would be breaking ground in Khiam and your soldiers running checkpoints in Beirut by now.
this is what Hezbollah claims considering the brave boys and girls from Hezbollah were able to keep the Israeli invaders from taking more than a few kilometers inside of Lebanon and forced the regime to resort to terror bombing civilians in Beirut, Id say their numbers are pretty accurate
This is a joke and beyond fairytales. I don't even...
We were only stopped in Lebanon by our government. We easily reached the Litany River, some units operated northern to it. Hezbollah operatives ran away, and we had almost no resistance.
We killed almost 4,000 Hezbollah operatives.
We lost (sadly) 73 soldiers.

this Western pro-Israel source says different https://www.nytimes.com/article/israel-l...

and ya, you took a photo op where the border approaches the Litani and then ran back.
yes. the Lebanese people did not want the war considering the civilian cost. this is why Israel deliberately uses terror to kill civilians. Hezbollah listened to the civilians and wanted to protect them from Israeli terror.

Ran away? Dude, are you trying to do some bravado chest bumps with me?
I know you are not about that life.
I on the other hand served in two wars and 4 operations. Never seen an Israeli soldier run away from a conflict. Never. On October 7th we had 150% recruiting demands, we could not enlist all who came from all over the world to volunteer to fight.
My unit was at the Litany. We did not pose for pictures.

you, as in the collective you of the IDF (but maybe you yourself as you are claiming), most definitely ran away from the Litani after this propaganda photo op that the IDF released and was geolocated to the bend near the border.

IDF sure wasnt setting up camp there.

Vic, you are trying to push buttons that I don't have.
I could care less how you criticize me or my peers. My unit is now back home, but we have friends still in Lebanon, operating next to and northern to the Litany. they are destroying every Hezbollah infrastructure.
Claiming that Hezbollah stopped us is almost as silly as claiming that Japan really showed the Americans by destroying the 2 atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Im not trying to push any buttons and you are taking things personal. I am just going by the maps. Israel was not able to take and hold and colonize (steal) the land as was clearly one of their main intentions.
but it is nice that you openly speak of how the IDF is breaking the ceasefire on a daily basis.
I like how Victor is destroying the psycho's claims with simple facts and links to mainstream sources and the dude is just like, "nuh uh!"
I guess black American slang is another thing you stole. That and women's panties. How are there DOZENS of pictures of you child-killers wearing panties? Help me out here bud!

Wow, SO brave to sign up for the overwhelming military favorite in a conflict! How many hospitals, schools and bakeries did you bomb?

im not taking anything personal. But its funny how a keyboard warrior claims that we ran away.
Your assumptions about Israel's goals is so lol, I cant bother. this is the fabrication of the moon landing level
the ceasefire does not stipulate that we don’t destroy infrastructures. That is one of the reasons we demanded a 60 days window, to ensure that we get as much as possible. we are not fighting anymore and we uphold that part.

Im most definitely a psycho. used to play super lag in 6max, something like 28/12/9. But I also have a 12 HCP in golf, so that evens it out.
