You're not saying anything wrong. You'll get no argument from me if you say child soldiers are bad.You're just sidestepping my point. Which is that the existence of child soldiers is due to the inhumane conditions foreign powers like the US have created in that part of the world.

The article you provided literally talks about how Qatar is sending foreign aid to Gaza and Israel is allowing it since it bypassed Hamas. This just invalidates your point.

It absolutely was not thanks to hard work. Israel is a colonial settlement backed by billionaires and propped up by the American military, so they can use it as a proxy to exert their influence on the region. Pull this support away, and the country collapses.

Forgot about this, did you?

And again. I gave you thousands.

No, you gave me one. I explained why the first one actually helped prove my point. Which is why you provided the second. And I'm too tired to read that person's biography to point to why he actually did it and give him some kind of justification. Unless you can give me some kind of substantive example where there are a huge number of kids in developed countries who are having happy lives you're point here is not justified.

Ah, so they are being forced

Now you're just not even arguing in good faith here.

By the way, the idea that the only way you can survive is die on the battlefield doesn't make much sense.

Is this your way of dismissing their suffering and their choices to defend themselves even in the face of overwhelming odds?

[-] Sundial@lemm.ee 1 points 4 hours ago

One. You gave me one example. I gave you thousands.

I never said it was moral or excusable. All I said is, what did you expect would happen given what we're doing to them. You have a lot of anger over the people forced to do bad things for survival but not against the ones who created the situation where they need to do these bad things. Why is this such a difficult concept for you to understand?

The Israeli government was given intelligence that the Oct 7th attack was going to happen by their own agencies as well as foreign ones. They chose not to take it seriously. At best, they're incompetent. At worst, they're complicit.

And why are you bringing up what Hamas did or didn't do? We were talking about the atrocities Israel is committing.

The violence won't end until Bibi says so. Who's going to stop him or even try to convince him? The US? Its clear they're going for a major land grab. Northern Gaza and Southern Lebanon for a start.

The more I read, the worse the whole thing got. These people should be sued for what they did to these kids.

Yes, but if we don't have so many shitheads in the street how can we justify such bloated police budgets? I would rather spend the money on our fine boys and girls in blue then some people who actually need it.

Sounds like you've been taken advantage of. Assuming you live in a western country they should have some kind of department for labor violations you can escalate to if it comes that.

Where are you working where you are expected to work through your breaks? 9-5 should include your break times as well, yes.

So they want to automate the use of troll-farms?
