    I think you’re both arguing about the wrong things, but did you read the article you cited?

    Literally the first sentence of the article:

    The Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad fired a barrage of rockets into Israel on Monday as…

    If, like me, you’re not an expert in Iranian backed militia groups, it then goes on to say:

    Islamic Jihad, an ally of Hamas - both of whom are backed by Iran - said…

    Idk about the rockets or any of the details but do try to become familiar with the evidence you’re citing before acting like you’re an authority on the topic.

        Oh my poor friend. None of what you said was witty. You previously said “hourly” and have now linked an article that says I was wrong when I said a singular attack in 10 months there were in fact 2, count em 2, whole rocket attacks (though one was not by Hamas). Mea culpa! I will point out that your very own linked article literally says “The volley of about 20 rockets caused no casualties”. Imagine that?! There are not hourly rocket attacks and zero Israeli civilians have been harmed since October. I don’t know what sort of hardware is required for wits but I can assure you you are lacking in it and perhaps have horse blinder hardware installed that you are not aware of. You have proven quite well that you are neither an expert nor well educated apparently.

        Deep breath. It does seem we are arguing points and that we in fact agree the whole situation is terrible. It is just upsetting when you make up things about Palestinians harming Israeli civilians when that is not true. It is only Palestinian civilians in the line of fire and it is heartbreaking.

        • objectively wrong: doubles down
        • no expert: the most educated
        • dumbed down (thanks!): incomprehensible amounts of wits

        Does your LinkedIn profile list, “The School of Hard Knocks”, under education? You argue like someone who has never had any serious, formal education.

        On the bright side, you should seriously consider running for public office, you check every box for the modern politician in some places.
