For the record, it is my DNA to hoard, especially when it comes to food.

I guess I have something in common with the Gazan population.
Even when you are starving? How many weeks have you gone with bare minimal sustenance with your hoarding? Under these conditions:For the record, it is my DNA to hoard, especially when it comes to food.

I am sure you will include me in that category.Hello.
This is my first time visiting this nook of the forum.
I am glad to see people here have a sane view of the conflict.
Edit: Apparently not everybody does.
according to Hamas. (which does not mean Israel did not do it, but lets keep our sources in mind here)Looks like Israel bombed 2 more hostages

Especially when I am starving. Never know when a person might need that last energy bar. Have to make it stretch. Need to carefully ration what one has remaining. Sacrifice oneself so the children might eat. That sort of thing.Even when you are starving? How many weeks have you gone with bare minimal sustenance with your hoarding? Under these conditions:
Net favorability—the percentage of people viewing Israel positively after subtracting the percentage viewing it negatively—dropped globally by an average of 18.5 percentage points between September and December, decreasing in 42 out of the 43 countries polled.
China, South Africa, Brazil, and several other countries in Latin America all went from viewing Israel positively to negatively. And many rich countries that already had net negative views of Israel—including Japan, South Korea, and the U.K.—saw steep declines. Net favorability in Japan went from -39.9 to -62.0; in South Korea from-5.5 to -47.8; and in the U.K. from -17.1 to -29.8.
The U.S. remains the only rich country that still had net positive views of Israel. Net favorability dropped just 2.2 percentage points , from a net favorability of 18.2 to a net favorability of 16 from September to December.
Washington's support for Israel carries a cost in global public opinion, however, particularly in Arab countries, the surveys show. In Egypt, the U.S. went from having a positive favorability of 41.1 to a negative favorability of -14.9 from September to December. In Saudi Arabia, the U.S. saw a similar trend, dropping from a positive favorability of 12.2 to -10.5 over the same time period.

And the main reason for that is as most of us know, the lobby has a strangle-like hold on what US media can or cannot publish on anything Israel related. More than any other country on earth. Consequently the US public is the least informed about the conflict vs the rest of the world.
Global opinion polls of Israel are sinking everywhere but in the US it seems
Welcome. We allow all viewpoints, within some measure of reason, and trust that the "truth" will prevail in the end.Hello.

Which surprised me when they fired Mehdi Hasan.MSNBC has been doing the opposite of that
I guess they didn't like him teaching the Gish Gallop to liberals so they could fight against conservative misinformation that they love to spread so well using that very technique.Which surprised me when they fired Mehdi Hasan.
