JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that Israel would “crush and destroy” Hamas in response to its attack.
Netanyahu said every Hamas member was a “dead man.”
Netanyahu made the remarks in a late-night televised address as Israeli planes pounded Gaza in response to the unprecedented attack.
Learned-helplessness produces both Nihilism & Sadism.
The Russian soldiers' habit of making torture-chambers everywhere proves this.
Russian culture's "fate regime" concept of relationship also proves this ( it proves the learned-helplessness aspect of it ).
( apparently that article explaining how in Russia, people entirely accept that fate, and nothing else, decides who marries who, is now .. gone??
Neither DuckDuckGO nor google have it... )
Deterrent requires that both parties have aversion to destruction.
However, when 1 party has become nihilist, then they can assault the other as a means of baiting the other into sadistic-aggression, in order that all the neighbours commit to annihilating the one who was successfully baited into demonstrating genocidal sadism.
Israel won't exist, in 10 years, no matter what, now.
NOTHING can make the Arab world accommodate its life, now.
Nothing.
The Christian Bible's Matthew 24 had a prophecy that is about to become historical-fact, in the coming decade.
That bit around verses 15-20 is the pertinent area.
Simply wait 1 decade, and see: if Israel still exists, as a country, in 2033, I'll eat a hat.
And it was entirely preventable, had there been enough committment to having neutral authorities in West Bank ( UN ), and NO political-dishonesty OR nationalist bullying permitted from either side...

The nice thing about prophecies is that they can never be proven to be false. Indeed, one would have to examine the future to prove it wrong. Which is either impossible or unrealistic.
Me too I can make a ton of prophecies and claim they will be eventually right. I will never be wrong.
Let's see. Let me prophesize that:
The US will cease to exist
We will encounter aliens
See where you are living right now? Eventually, it will be filled with lava.
See where you are living right now? Eventually, it will be flooded with water.
A giant comet populated with nyan cats will crash on Earth
However, you can be sure that in 2033 I will come back in this thread and have you eat a hat. Marking the date and the link in my calendar. If lemmy is still alive, that is
Wtf is this? Israel won't exist in 10 years? The Arab world won't accommodate them?
They are on better terms with much of the Arab world than they have ever been. They are certainly on better terms than Hamas is. Hamas has Hezbollah and Iran (Persian not Arab). Egypt, Jordan, UAE, Morocco, Bahrain, and Sudan all have formal relations with Israel. Turkey had long had formal relations with Israel.
And for most of those that are adamantly against Israel aren't exactly in the position to really start something that they know would escalate to US involvement. You think Iran is going to Nuke them or something? Because Israel is rather established.
