  • People may criticize America World Police, and the American military spending and posturing, but this is a perfect opportunity to put it to good use. If Biden et al in Washington actually cared: financial and military aid to Isreal is frozen; they obviously don’t need it. Deploy a Marine Expeditionary Unit stocked with aid into the Mediterranean (maybe supplement with a Navy hospital ship, perhaps a carrier strike group in “support.” Speak softly and carry a big stick).
    Declare that Marines will be providing aid to Gaza via amphibious landing and helicopter. Make it clear they’re sent in peace but should one Israeli bullet even graze a Marine or their equipment, the US will not have to kill 30,000 civilians to get to those responsible.
    I’d bet a dollar Netanyahu (or any other world leader) would start behaving more prudently. And it would cost nothing: MEUs will be sailing regardless, Israeli aid will be transferred to Gaza aid, funds already earmarked will simply be redirected.

    No it doesn’t. How does it prove Deckard is a replicant versus proving Tyrell Corps had become just that good at replicating life. In both Blade Runner movies to prove something was replicant they had to get electron microscope close to find printing on cells. Perhaps Rachael was just that human. Unless it was explained somewhere I missed.
