omg, wie gut ist das denn? Kannte ich bisher nicht, bin garnicht darauf gekommen, dass es so etwas geben könnte :D

People are downvoting you, because while the Holocaust wasn't the first nor last genocide, it still is unique. Your initial statement makes two claims, but you only refer to the one less controversial one in your "curious edit".

Signal

Gibt es heute nicht mehr. Wie wäre es stattdessen mit "wegen den Bundesverkehrsministern"?

Deutsche Bahn is city-ferries in Copenhagen.

On top of that: any FPV drones that were either not fooled or fooled and attack are just bouncing off on contact.

Tank you for träwelling viz Deutsche Bahn...

Thanks for clarifying.

Hamas does not provide any figures for its military fatalities. The Reuters news agency reported that an official had admitted 6,000 fighters had been killed, but Hamas denied this figure to the BBC.

I didn't mention the 1.2k killed Israelis, and as such also didn't describe all of them as civilians, like OP did in the case of the Palestinian casualties.

Unfortunately you disqualified yourself from further discussions by describing all IDF soldiers as terrorists. You might have noticed that I described the Hamas casualties in Gaza as "fighters" to avoid using charged terms, even though they are part of a terrorist group according to the EU and in my opinion could be described as such.

The +30k confirmed death toll in Gaza includes Hamas fighters. In mid-February according to Hamas 6000 of their combatants have been killed, according to Israel 12000, so the true number will be somewhere in the middle.

Still, a terrible price the civilians of Gaza are paying of course.

Afaik Czechia identified 800k shells available on the world market (a lot from Turkey) and they are looking for partners to buy them for Ukraine.

I think this is a good idea and wish you all the best.

Moderation will be key of course, but the rules ( http://diagonlemmy.social/post/108 ) sound good.

At the same time, if somebody doesn't even want to think about HP, they can easily block the entire instance, no harm no foul.

Honestly, I think we are not that far from each other.

Netanyahu propped up Hamas for years exactly because he knew that there wouldn't be a unified Palestinian state as long as they are in charge. That was one of the ways his governments worked against the worked against a two-state solution.

You a wrong in thinking that Hamas is not oppressing Gazans just as much as Israel is though. They are the reason why there hasn't been a democratic election in Gaza since 2006.

Why should they not have an election?

Because Hamas doesn't want an election. They are in power. They got rid of Fatah in Gaza. Do you think if there would be a free and open election in Gaza, Israel could have stopped it before October 7th?

At least Hamas stopped throwing their inner-Palestinian opposition off high-rise roofs since 2007, from what I heard. Now you might just mercifully get shot as an "Israeli spy".

I'm all for a free Palestine, but the way there isn't Hamas for gods sake.

That’s… what do you mean by “current war”?

The war of the last 4 months.

Hamas bears the responsibility for killing 766 civilians. Israel bears the responsibility for killing 30 000 civilians. If you start counting on October 7th, that is.

The count of 30k deaths in Gaza includes civilians and Hamas fighters (but Hamas doesn't publish these numbers). But you subtract alleged Israeli military/police deaths on October 7th from Hamas' death toll.

That it’s somehow not the responsibility of those perpetrating it, but instead those who (in your opinion) threw the first rock?

I said "main responsibility". Of course Israel still has responsibility for the deaths in Gaza. But people act like Hamas didn't anticipate Israels counterstrike exactly like it unfolded (not that I think that it is a good thing that Israel acted exactly in that way).

if you go by the numbers, it’s 766 civilians killed on October 7th vs 2600-3000 on 9/11

In a country that is 36 times smaller than the US. Look at what 9/11 caused psychologically on a societal level in the US, and how it affected the political decisions in the decade after (sadly).

In the end, Hamas did start the current war, and bears the main responsibility for the civilian deaths on both sides during it. At the same time, I loathe the current Israeli government, and do think that there have been war crimes committed in Gaza by the IDF, that need to be investigated. The thing is, the Israeli government can and will be replaced in the next election. The same is not possible for Hamas, who are just as detrimental to a two state solution.

Most people commenting in this thread seem to have it all figured out and have very clear opinions for a conflict that simply is not that easy to solve.

Awesome, I didn't know that either! TIL

Like most of the time, the answer is complex: Yes, there is less wind in the south, but also yes, the south could approve more wind turbines. Yes, the south slows down the construction of high voltage power lines from the wind-rich north to the energy-hungry south, but the states that have to be crossed also do "their part".

In the end a couple different electricity-pricing regions would help in balancing all of this.

In dem Fall könntest du eine Liste "Nachrichten" anlegen, "Hide these posts from home" aktivieren, und da die Tagesschau und ZDF hinzufügen. Dann kannst du zwischen Hauptzeitleiste und Nachrichten-Zeitleiste wechseln. Oder, falls die Mastodon im Web verwendest, das "Advanced web interface" aktivieren, dann kannst du mehrere Zeitleisten in eigenen Spalten nebeneinander sehen.

Edit: Oder halt diesen account entfolgen, ich komme da auch nicht hinterher :)

Nein, denn, die Zahlen beziehen sich ja nicht auf die Gesamtbevölkerung oder so, sondern auf den relativen Zuwachs.

Sagen wir es gibt 100 Auto- und 3 Radfahrer in Paris. 5 benutzen ihr Auto nicht mehr (-5%) und nur einer von denen fährt jetzt mit dem Rad (+33%). Dann gehen immernoch mehr zu Fuß.

Thanks for recommending it, it does look really nice. I'll definitely check it out when a fitting project comes along.

I generally agree with you that conscription is worth less than it was in the 60s because of technological advances. But my takeaway from the war and subsequent mobilization in Ukraine is that "grunts" still play an important role in wars.

Let's take your example. Without a sufficient number of grunts between your artillery piece and the enemy, it will constantly be pushed back, because the enemy places 10 grunts on a BRT to close the 40km distance. Anti-tank weapons and drones can help, but they might dismount and proceed.

Drones made the battlefield even more terrifying for individual soldiers, but I think in the next year's we will see more anti-drone weapons and maybe even counter-(intercepting) drones.

[Sorry, I accidentally sent it too early]

The war in Ukraine shows that the professionals of any army are usually out of action within the first 3-6 months, and after that you either have a mobilized army of people who have held a gun before and moved as a squad, or you have to teach them even that.
