@Duck Mode: constantly broke the ceasefire, and they didnt hit hamas, it was only women and children being killed.
@johnfuller: Hamas targeted civilians at a peace festival on October 7. Even according to the numbers provided by both Hamas and Israel, more soldiers are being killed in Gaza than civilians.
@gto21: actually, thats incorrect also, they shot only at idf soldiers, it was israel who shot using helicopters
@johnfuller: We have a video of Hamas chasing a woman. She begged not to be killed, but they shot her.
@johnfuller: In another video, Shalini Louk is seen with her leg bent unnaturally (suggesting she may be deceased) while someone spits on her. Later, a prominent pro-Palestinian figure, Daniel Haqiqatjou, tweeted, describing her as a rave prostitute.
@johnfuller: I support the minority of Palestinians who don't support Hamas. As for the majority who support Hamas, I don't support them.
Israel is an extension of the west. It may as well be the capital of the US
Israel is like cancer that spread into US political system.
Israel Zionism is like cancer that spread into all the US World's political systems.
FIFY
I disagree with Israel because they actively kill innocent Palestinians and are effectively committing a genocide.
It's pretty awful, I can't imagine how terrible it would be for someone to just walk in and steal my house/land because they want to.
I don't side with Hamas here, but Palestinians are effectively caught in the middle of two sides happy to just kill innocents for their own means, or at minimum steal from them and eradicate their culture.
Well said. It's truly horrific.
They are not caught in the middle… They back the Hamas terrorist organisation who use their own people are human shields
I am sure they do because for sure Hamas seems to be the only side at the moment who even willing to fight for their rights and to exist in their lands, there are no other options for them as what Israel does to them is clear oppression with settlements and regular "mowing" them down.
It is clearly a genocide thanks to people like you thinking the only way for Israel to live peacefully in Palestine is to kill all innocent people (allegedly because "all" of them support Hamas terrorists) and not come to a political solution that safeguards both sides of this war.
Personally I don’t support the Hamas attack and I don’t support the Israeli government reaction. I don’t support attacks on civilians that leaves tens of thousands dead and millions homeless. I do support a peaceful two state solution.
People should go back and read the history of the region and see the issues didn’t start with the current attacks. It is a complex issue and the hardliners on both sides make resolution difficult.
Terrorism is a business
War is a Racket.
War Is a Racket is a speech and a 1935 short book by Smedley D. Butler, a retired United States Marine Corps Major General and two-time Medal of Honor recipient. Based on his career military experience, Butler discusses how business interests commercially benefit from warfare.
https://ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.html (a fairly short read but very important for those who care top understand the real nature of these things)
Yes war is business too, especially when the bosses not in their own land.
Ahhh, the problem is one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter. I do agree that in either case the people selling the weapons are making squillions of dollars. Fomenting continual conflict is their business model.
In a business, someone needs money, someone needs more than money.
@try2bhelpful: Yes, it would be better to amend or even cancel the constitution, or the best no constitution at all.
@raydebug: Honestly mate you really have no perspective on this. In a democracy we are allowed to question what our Governments are doing. We are allowed to see there are faults on both sides of the argument. You aren’t helping your argument going OTT.
@raydebug: Actually not all of the history of the region. You tend to cherry pick very specific bits.
Dick Cheney, is that you?
i find it hard to support a country that has secret nuclear weapons, that has one of the strongest militaries in the world… for a mere 10 mil. people and who's most iconic weapon is the Caterpillar D7 bulldozer…
the israeli air force by itself could probably flatten the ADF without much issue
Agreed…. not to mention the massive US support politically, financially, and militarily in crushing palestinians.
It's a bizarre world where the US supports the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, but gave israel nukes a long time ago, when their population was 2 million.
If you know a little bit more about history, you should know that it was the Soviet Union and Iran that got Israel through the initial stage.
@raydebug: When World War I ended in 1918, the British took control of Palestine. The League of Nations issued a British mandate for Palestine—a document that gave Britain administrative control over the region, and included provisions for establishing a Jewish national homeland in Palestine—which went into effect in 1923. The British ruled it up until the partition in 1948.
Nothing would happen in that region without British say so.
A cynic would view Iran and the Soviet Union’s initial support as a way of offloading a number of Jewish people from their countries. Me, I don’t support the leadership of these countries either.
@try2bhelpful: The British can say whatever they want, but Israel was not built and survived by words
@try2bhelpful: Most of the money came from the Jews themselves, and Israel's weapons for the first Middle East war came from the Czech Republic, with support from the Soviet Union.
That was when Israel was at its weakest.
@raydebug: I would really love to see you justify that most of the money supporting Israel is from the Jewish people? Is this people in Israel, is it money from Jewish people around the world? Particularly given the money, and support, from the US Government these Jewish people must be raising a stash of cash.
You are really big on trying to cherry pick certain points in time trying to bolster your argument. However, you don’t seem to embrace the spectrum of the “region”.
As I’ve said, repeatedly, I want a two state solution. I don’t back the hardliners on either side.
@try2bhelpful: "The Liberty reported at 9:50 a.m. (2:50 a.m. Washington time) on 8 June that it had been orbited by two delta-wing jet fighters, presumably Israeli Mirages. At 3:05 p.m. (8:05 a.m.) the Liberty was strafed by unidentified jet aircraft. The Liberty apparently was not able to establish communications with other units of the US Sixth Fleet during the air attack, and the first information available to the US commanders was after the subsequent attack by unidentified torpedo boats, which occurred at 3:25 p.m."
Before you hate Israel and America, you should know a little more about history, okay?
@raydebug: You are providing comments with no context. This does nothing to bolster your arguments.
Honestly mate I don’t hate the US or Israel. However, I do think we need to challenge what they are doing when innocent people die. I don’t look at any country with rose coloured glasses.
@try2bhelpful: Even the context should be based on history right, unless we are talking about a novel
@raydebug: I am providing context for my history. Not just pulling out random snippets. If you read my comments I, frequently, say people should go back and look at the full history of the region.
but Israel was not built and survived by words
Yeah, it was built by a carrying out a lot of terrorist acts, the early leaders were bone fide terrorists.
I’ve been following the Gaza situation since the October attacks happened so I’m basically an expert now, but when your neighbours openly claim they want to exterminate you, are you really surprised? The situation is awful all round, but Israel has tried peace and look what happened. The situation will never be resolved imo.
Are you being satirical?
@try2bhelpful: I get all my information from social commentary (ozb, facebook, reddit comments) etc so pls believe me when I say I’m an expert.
@nomoneynoproblems: Thank you for the clarification. Sometimes it is hard to tell the difference.
The trouble is it might be resolved when the area is made uninhabitable for anyone.
Are you aware of history lol? There were several Arab-Isreali wars where all the Arab countries formed alliances to destroy Israel for existing and then it happened again several times. It is how they got to annex land like Gaza (which Egypt didn't want back). Of course they have a strong military half their neighbours have stated policies about trying to kill them.
Oh $hit, the tik tok army is out in force again, gotta break out the popcorn! 🍿
Here are a few for you featuring US, UN, UK and Israel officials…

I'm confused, why would you link me a bunch of tiktok links when i'm here having a laugh at the dumasses and keyboard warriors watching this bullshit everyday?
Just testing if you have critical thinking but guess the test failed. At least now I know not to engage further, thanks mate
@cmyk: LOL what? what has critical thinking anything to do with what you have posted? you are not making any sense buddy.
if your further engagements include tiktok links, I dont want it!!!! this guy … 🤣
Why middle east not coming together for funds?
I thought they were brothers to Pales.
Good question, if you know what the PLO did and how rich Arafat was, then you know the answer.
So what would the funds be used for? Rebuilding the areas that Israel destroyed? Or do you want the Middle East to fund a war against Israel? I think the US is busily trying to discourage that.
"For several days Suha Arafat, who lives in luxury in France and had not visited her embattled husband for three years before his collapse two weeks ago, used her wifely prerogative to prevent her husband's political followers from visiting him or even learning his true condition."
Suha Arafat is Arafat's widow, and it seems that Arafat's wealth is in the West.
@raydebug: And the relevance of this to the larger conflict is? Yet again with the cherry picking. You didn’t actually address my point. What would you expect the surrounding Arab states to do? If they did start supporting the Palestinian people the region would erupt into a massive war. The US is busily trying to house down that possibility.
@try2bhelpful: That's the problem, you know nothing about the PLO and Arafat and what they did to other Arab countries.
You know nothing.
@raydebug: Arafat, got a joint Nobel peace prize in 1994 with Yitzak Rabin for trying to negotiate the Oslo peace accord. Rabin was shot by a Jewish rightwing extremist who objected to the Oslo accord.
Funnily enough I know stuff.
The US is busily trying to house down that possibility.
I would disagree. They seem to fan the flame arguably by defending Israel's actions so much.
All you need to do is Google and you'll find those countries donating mate. Just stop gaslighting the naive.
The root cause of the problem here is the oppression of Palestinians.
& Oct 7
They're exiles and pariahs. They (countries like Jordan - compare the flag) kick out their unwanted. Unfortunately instead of rehabilitation, it leads to the opposite and becomes generational. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_September
…"I thought they were brothers to Pales."
It's Palestinians mate.
On the deal itself, no one was ever spending over $1600USD on this. And looking at the games, few are worth playing and even then those few have been free or in better bundles before. It's not a good deal at $8USD.
Hamas leaders will divert funds for personal luxury and to finance future conflicts, while many Palestinians endure poverty.
What's your thought on Netanyahu's involvement in funding Hamas?
Let's assume it's true. That means he needs to go, like Hamas needs to go.
israel funds hamas, israel created hamas, it was always netanyahu's object all along, it keeps him in power of israel for longer, go and look at what the ex-prime minister says about him
I've followed the conflict closely. If there were good evidence, I would have heard about it by now. But assuming it's true, I'll grant you he does it for argument's sake. It means he needs to go, just like Hamas needs to go.
100% sure against Hamas and Just assuming against Israel, lolz, Show PHULL SUPPORT to Murderers of your Lord Jesus, or Just Assume that they didn't.
Hamas leaders Netanyahu will divert funds for personal luxury and to finance future conflicts, while many Palestinians endure poverty.
I'm sure he will, when they have a deal for Raising Funds for Zion.
Anyway enduring is a good thing. They will be rewarded in paradise.
Down voted as the games are garbage.
Even for $8 these games are joke.
Agree! The games are rubbish and not a good deal!
Essentially the $8 are for the one game A Short Hike. It has Overwhelmingly Positive reviews on Steam. I think it was added to Gamepass. It goes for $11.5 on Steam so overall this bundle is a good deal just to get this game cheaper. So not a very bad deal after all.
Thanks I need some post buy depression right now.
I thought it would have at least one multiplayer game or one steam key.
I wouldn't be surpised if Lawyers for Israel haven't already issued court requests for the names/addresses of eveyone on this thread, with support from Albo, Wong and O'Neil.
Stop the genocide !! Bring back the global rules based order !!
A Short Hike is worth worth it all on its own, absolutely darling game. Plus the bundle’s for a good cause :)
@Elephant @Oxenfree123 @raydebug
BS, take your politics (or just really, really, really bad and uninformed opinions) elsewhere.
I skimmed the list and there are at least 3 games that I immediately recognized with thousands of positive reviews on Steam.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/809020/ZeroRanger/
Games from 4-6 years ago that I would have purchased if I really wanted to play them, otherwise I'm sure they would have been free any time in the future.
I just think buying hundreds of games at once is still a joke.
Literally nothing you said makes any sense.
If you wanted to play them you would have purchased them years ago? You're sure they'll be free in the future based on…? Buying hundreds of games is a joke because..?
Like what does any of that gibberish have to do with whether or not $8 US bucks for these games is a good deal or not?
You're all over this post talking politics, so your neg was clearly biased by that, not by the quality of the deal.
Which is what it should be about on this site.
To me yes it's a joke whether buying hundreds of games at once or supporting Hamas
Eh at $2 USD per game this is kind of on par with some of the crap I have bought in the past.
Not a great bundle but what can you do. Can't refund it afaik.
I'm sick and tired of these Palestinian issue, I don't care, they're a bunch crying wolf, always playing the victims, and never blames themselves for their own demise.
You seem like a really loving and compassionate person.
These people are taking advantage of your compassion to incite their violent nature.
How dare them play the victims of an apartheid state and live under occupation.
I'm sick and tired of these Palestinian Jewish issues, I don't care, they're a bunch crying wolf, always playing the victims, and never blames themselves for their own demise.
No deal, doesn't include the necessary shit-sifter attachment to help locate the handful of worthwhile included games.
Fundraising for terrorists? No thanks.
This is for Palestinians, not the IDF.
You mean Hamas? Whos leaders are billionaires… Gets billions of other people's money every year and the only infrastructure they get are tunnels
Oh and let's not forget the throwing people off the roof… That's the people you think you're supporting
Ooo… Ye olde "Hamas" red herring. Ok I'll bite even though I don't know normally engage when people conflate innocent Palestinians with Hamas(which I have not mentioned at all).
Can I assume you support Israel (at least I ask first instead of blindly jumping into conclusion).
If you support Israel and since Netanyahu supports Hamas by knowingly funding them millions, does that make you a Hamas supporter?
@cmyk: Actually i don't support israel … They too can gagf… Both sides suck … Neither really want peace…
They have an endless cycle of war which only enriches the elites.. and thats on both sides of the war.
But in this latest cycle of the war… How can hamas run a massive terrist event and then claim to be the victims all the while using their own people as the meat shields? … Sounds pretty screwed up to me.
People really need to stop deep throating the idf propaganda and especially that "hamas throwing people off a roof" shit which was obviously an old ISIS video and not hamas. Unless you also believe the daft "hamas is ISIS" propaganda literally.
https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/video-people-thrown-roof-…
What a bad collection of games. Are these all the ones people tried to create but failed.. There is nothing in there remotely known. Even for indies.
Then how do you explain these games in the bundle?

All overwhelming positive with literally thousands of reviews.
I can't because I really don't know them. They probably need to be marketed better
