Mercenaries I will never understand. To risk your life for war and money. Saw today in Kursk a group of dead mercenaries. It is difficult to feel bad for them.

I would assume these are highly abused and traumatized men and that killing and destruction and flirting with death have become an addiction. And "becoming good at it" the only identity they have left. They are cause for pity, but also must be brought to justice and never given free rein to live outside the law. The lawless conditions (for obscene profits and theft) that the Powers that Be have created, that we have been witnessing in horror, are creating increasing numbers of mercenaries, without humanity, without mercy. The tragedy - personal and collective - of these times is immense and heartbreaking!

Why would one even want to feel bad for them?

There are also a large number of well paid mercenaries, hardened soulless killers, among them, from many countries, esp the US, accountable to no one.

For some odd reasons I am only able to like comments from the app and only when they are directed to me.

Thx for the link Liana

What a desperate move by Netanyahu. His vaunted IDF has learned the same lesson the SS did once upon a time--it's HARD to exterminate an entire ethnic group of people. Hard work of the most soul-sucking kind that just never runs out of both victims and complications.

They were unable to ethnically cleanse Gaza in over 11 months of horror, against an opponent armed mostly with IED's. Now they're up against Hezbollah, which is an opponent a couple of orders of magnitude better trained, disciplined, and equipped than Hamas.

The IDF can wreck Lebanon, and kill tens of thousands of its people if it goes all-out, but it can never conquer even southern Lebanon, much less hold it.

Netanyahu is trying to provoke a full-scale war between the US and Iran. His biggest enemy there is the unwillingness of both parties to fight each other. The Pentagon knows that any attack on Iran would be an imperial disaster on the scale Salamis was for the Persians or Midway for the Japanese, and the Iranians know that the damage America could inflict on its infrastructure would be massive.

Israel, or the Arabs for that matter, are not worth the cost for either power.

Watch the trailer and then the entire searing window into the struggles & resilience of Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. Film explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice.

Looks to me like the israeli soldiers are being used as ponds,

The zionazi is sending its troops to be slaughtered to justify the continuation of their insane war.

They did the same at the beginning of their attack on Gaza when they sent into Gaza dozen of tanks and than got them stuck and kept them like sitting ducks in places from which they could not escape.
