President Joe Biden says he will not supply offensive weapons that Israel can use to launch an all-out assault on Rafah — the last major Hamas stronghold in Gaza — over concern for the well-being of the more than 1 million civilians sheltering there.
Mmmkay. Prove it.
You’re the one making the extraordinary claim that this decision had ‘nothing’ to do with massive, nation-wide, broadly covered protests occurring in a hotly contested election year amongst a key demographic.
So, prove it.
Ahh. So when one person makes a claim that’s unproven, but you believe it- the onus is on the person that asks it to be proven to prove it isn’t?
Sorry, but that’s not how it works…
There is zero evidence to support the statement that this has anything to do with protests. ZERO. you cannot prove it.
I’ll save us both a lot of frustration and wasted time and simply refer you back to my first comment.
I’ll also save us both a lot of frustration and wasted time and simply refer you back to my first comment.
That’s just it though. Neither of us can point to a causal chain of events conclusively proving or disproving our belief.
The difference is, my belief is fully compatible with the mountain of circumstantial evidence mentioned in my above comment, whereas your belief requires one to completely ignore all of it.
So you’re going to look at a decision in the heat of an enormously momentous election year, made by a president who is running for reelection, amidst numerous, widespread, widely covered protests made largely by a demographic that is absolutely critical to this candidate-president winning said election…You’re going to look at all that and say it had ‘nothing to do’ with those same protests.
Not, ‘there were other factors’, nope, you confidently assert the protests had nothing to do with it and demand proof of a suggestion to the contrary.
Once again, check your tether.
You start distorting reality, and it gets tough to stop, by nature.
So your proof is no proof. Correlation isn’t causation. Check your work and try again.
Provide proof please.
So this whole time you’re simply being pedantic about the word “proof”?
That’s pretty pathetic.
If they claim it’s proof without there being proof, it’s a bad faith statement. It’s not pedantic to call it out just because you disagree with it.
It’s disingenuous to take credit for something where no credit was ever given.
Hey you’re crushing this whole internet discussion thing, provided we all join you in persistently ignoring all of the circumstances I keep mentioned.
I have no proof. I have a mountain of evidence, and I am keen to hear your erudite take on why none of it matters.
The, if you like, you can share your evidence, but I doubt you want to.
So if I have no proof the protests didn’t cause this, and you have no proof they did, I’d say it’s a wash and both are wrong.
Which was my point all along.
Just accept that a good thing happened without taking credit for something someone who you do nothing but shit on did.
Also, Internet discussions aren’t something one worries about “crushing” when they’re an adult. I’m not here to “crush” anything. I just disagree with your definition of “proof.”
Nothing more. Maybe relax a bit. We can just agree to disagree.
You sure are dumb. You’ve provided enough evidence for that to be fact.
Dumb for disagreeing with something you like? Do you insult everyone that disagrees with you?
I wonder if there’s a way to describe that……
Hmmmm….
