The Palestinian Authority somehow took a more extreme position than both Hamas and the Israeli police.
The facts are that helicopters were used to indiscriminately target people in the kill zone and likely killed Israeli civilians, but the helicopters were by no means the only cause of casualties in Re’im. To claim that helicopters killed all 364 people doesn’t pass the sniff test.
Their methodology is literally “this is the number I feel like they deserve”
Their methodology is arbitrary to the point of being incoherent.
Now, maybe if you could find this guy’s credentials it might give him a bit more credence. Oh, that’s right. You can’t.
Have you looked at their methodology? It wouldn’t pass a basic university-level writing course.
It’s really not. MBFC is run by a single guy. It’s methodology is basically worthless. It’s basically one dude’s opinion on what news sources he likes to read.
What do we know about that guy? Not much. He happens to share the same name as a very prominent lawyer/professor, which makes finding details about him very challenging.

Might be a hot take, but prosecuting the leader you elected just one election cycle ago might not be a sign of a healthy democracy?
An accident caused by a guided munition going haywire and seeking out the nearest “press” vest. An unfortunate but unavoidable accident.
Sri Lanka: stuck between a Chinese-owned and operated port and an India-owned and operated port.
Y’know, it would be great if it could be a Sri Lankan-owned and operated port… Adani Group didn’t even give them a choice in that matter.
Guess it’s time for Argentina to issue a new currency.
Sovereignty over monetary policy is extremely valuable and dollarization will simply trade one problem for many others.
I don’t think China really backs anyone as a matter of foreign policy.
Their position is really “if y’all don’t fuck around in our internal affairs, we won’t fuck around in yours.” What China claims to be internal affairs is rather broad, but in a historical context it’s seen as “where China was before the Century of Humiliation.” It’s somehow become a common-ground position between the CPC and KMT and stretches from the Opium Wars through the Sino-Japanese Wars and is widely recognized to end at one of two points (depending on who you ask): 1. Just prior to the CPC coming to power in 1949, or 2. Just after the Treaty of San Francisco (which invited neither the PRC or ROC) was signed in 1951.
I mean, anyone who was convinced otherwise was delusional. We’ve always known that methane has a substantially higher short-term impact on GHG emissions than carbon dioxide. We’ve also known for years now that natural gas is notorious for leaking obscene amounts of methane (even compared to coal mining per unit energy). That hasn’t stopped us from tapping and consuming more gas: in fact, total US fossil fuel electricity production has increased by 40% over the plateau in the 1970s-2000s.
In the short-term, we are incredibly, incredibly fucked. Eventually, methane decays and whatnot, but that might be too little, too late.
Have you tried living with the US?
The US doesn’t even hide it. They tear apart Canadian industries (see: Bombardier), they rip up trade agreements (see: NAFTA), they fund right-wing extremists in Canada (see: Freedom convoy), they dump millions of dollars into “independent Canadian think tanks” (see: MLI and the Fraser Institute), they bribe Canadian officials with cushy jobs after public service (see: Stephen Harper and the IDU), and they’re overall a massive contributor to the decline of Canada as an independent nation with independent policy. Oh, and they constantly push for free trade that seeks to displace Canadian corporations with American ones so that they can offshore all the profits.
Low capital cost for high operating cost. Where have I seen this before?
MBFC is literally made by a single guy. Nobody really knows anything about the guy except for what he’s published. The scores are basically pulled out of his ass. I’m not sure if that’s exactly the paragon of free and unbiased journalism.
More whataboutism.
Really not sure why this runoff went so poorly for Massa tbh
Milei is a whack job that makes Trump and Bolsonaro look like good, sane leaders.
The DPP has literally already asserted this claim. You cannot allow the US to conduct FONOPS through the Taiwan Strait without declaring independence because under UNCLOS, if Taiwan was Chinese then the Taiwan Strait would be territorial waters.
Where’s the invasion?
O&G really is the key decider in US foreign policy, huh?
