      Elated to be wrong. You see, that is how being an adult works. Sometimes you are wrong, and when you are wrong about something with a positive outcome, you are happy that you were wrong.

        but also, spending energy on prevention (the publicity) and then when the thing doesn’t occur saying “i guess we were wrong” is the wrong take i think

        same thing with Y2K and plenty of engineering things: people were saying “it was no big deal! yall were saying planes were going to fall out of the sky! we wasted so much time and money!”… yeah; it was a huge and expensive effort that’s why the bad things didn’t happen

      Ooh check out the genocide apologist, making a super strong argument about how just and honorable Israel is. So intelligent and brave! You should get a sticker from Bibi to put on your shirt.

      Public attention from them and others is why she’s being gently handled. You should thank those who raised the alarm on her behalf, not Israel.

      Right here. I would have never in a million years have imagined that they would just let her go. This is an extremely surprising turn of events.

          Isreal has already shown that they’ll wipe out an entire population just because they don’t like their religion, one more murder would just be another day in the life for them.
