Yep, can’t have anyone providing aid to the people they are genociding. More to the point, the existence of the tunnels is irrelevent. They may exist; they might not exist for a particular IDF campaign. Bringing them up in media is clearly a proven mechanism for manufacturing consent. No fact checking required, what the IDF says goes.
From the wikipedia page:
Within the coffee industry, kopi luwak is widely regarded as a gimmick or novelty item. The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) states that there is a “general consensus within the industry…it just tastes bad”. A coffee professional compared the same beans with and without the kopi luwak process using a rigorous coffee cupping evaluation. He concluded: "it was apparent that luwak coffee sold for the story, not superior quality…Using the SCAA cupping scale, the luwak scored two points below the lowest of the other three coffees. It would appear that the luwak processing diminishes good acidity and flavor and adds smoothness to the body, which is what many people seem to note as a positive to the coffee.” Professional coffee tasters were able to distinguish kopi luwak from other coffee samples, but remarked that it tasted “thin”. Some critics claim more generally that kopi luwak is simply bad coffee, purchased for novelty rather than taste. A food writer reviewed kopi luwak available to American consumers and concluded "It tasted just like…Folgers. Stale. Lifeless.

Yeah I was simply making the point about Israel being the primary cause for this conflict using the uncited and perhaps made up quote from the article. “If Hezbollah can build tunnels, why can’t they provide electricity and water to their communities?”
The tunnels made or perhaps not made by Hamas Houthi Hezbollah are always used as a reason to bomb.
If Israel can build an international coalition to genocide Palestinians, why can’t they instead build an international coalition to provide electricity and water to the Palestinian communities? Again with this tunnels hasbara shit.
Perhaps a bit of a resemblance. Kroll and Mulaney collaborate a lot. They even had a long running Broadway show. They were plugging Big Mouth with this charity appearance.
Nick Kroll and John Mulaney for those who don’t know.
MBAs are ruining the world.
Gahhhh you’re right. Fuck. I’m getting too old to remember lyrics I’ve heard a million times correctly. So edited.
As someone from the earlier late 1900s once sang:
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’ into the future!
Achieved horrific genocide.
Despite all indications that consumers don’t want it, that investors are beginning to understand how useless and cost prohibitive it is, they are still pushing it onto consumers.
The games are inherently political, just like every facet of humanity. Yes, it is silly to think they are apolitical, as they are framed to be.
Yup, can’t have one without the other.
Amazing at how political the supposedly apolitical Olympics can be.
Billions for years of more genocide.
Like that didn’t have historical context. Genocide already occurring next to a damn music festival.

Cool, with FOSS I’ll give this a try and if I like it enough, I’ll stick with it and toss a few bines towards the devs. Thanks!
Superbly dangerous saber rattling. Cool!
