      I know, I was making a separate point. I will edit that. Sounds like a last second strike call-off. Bad communication I guess.

      Middle East Conflict of 2023-2024

      All this post tells me is that you have a lot of research to do on this topic. A lot. I like what Coleman Hughes says about color blindness, as hawks pointed out, but as I looked around his X profile and watched his interviews about Israel, he has glaring holes in his understanding. He does not have any knowledge of the historical motives from both sides, the political situations, the cynical bargaining, the ultimate goal of the far-right in Israel, the tactics used by the IDF, the cover the U.S. provides Israel in the UN, the lack of accountability the IDF has, the treatment of Arab Israelis, the treatment of Gazans, the rights taken away, the bulldozed cemeteries, the mass graves, the torture of innocent people, the shooting/bombing of their own hostages, the outright lies taken as truth, the international laws broken, the ultra nationalist groups in the IDF and their horrific actions, the intentional killing of journalists, the bastardization of the term "Anti-Semitic", the labeling of Jews who object to Israel's actions as "Self-hating", the labeling of Pro-Palestinian protestors as "Pro-Hamas"... none of it. He does not know what he is talking about. He only thinks he does. That makes me not respect him. He is a wannabe Hitchens or Rushdie minus all the context and raw knowledge. It's a genocide. People can deny it, but they are either ignorant or don't care.

      ATC is not the same as corporate airlines. This is a government job just like ours in the US. They get pensions, have good social programs (like all the French), lots of time off (like all French), and are paid fairly well (100k euros). They ended up getting what they wanted I guess cause it got called off after the threat.
