Because Trump has a huge ego and thin skin. There’s a difference between someone out of Trump’s control calling him a pedo and him telling someone/approving someone calling him a pedo. He hates being embarrassed and regularly dumps people who embarrass him or make him look bad. It’s hard for me to believe he would willingly tell anyone call him a pedo.
I don’t think Trump would agree to being called a pedo. Not ruling out that this is all an act, but also we are talking about an drug-fuelee egotistical billionaire who is losing a bunch of the government money that keeps his companies afloat.

I think these are all paid games, fyi
EDIT: actually these might not be great for work.
SLS about to get uncancelled lmao
It’s from 10/12/23 in an interview on HOT 97:
I don’t know what she has been saying lately, but Bernie has said similar shit recently, so I wouldn’t put it past her to say something like this right now, either.

Firebombing random senior citizen Zionists who hold no actual power in a hippie college town isn’t an “operation”. It would be one thing if this guy firebombed like one of those auctions of illegally seized land in the West Bank or something. This wasn’t even that.
I understand that there’s always deeper ties with these more “innocuous” Zionist front groups to more nasty stuff, but that isn’t going to get reported in the news. They are going to say a bunch of old people got firebombed, and that’s just not a great look visually to “normies”. The biggest things against this blowing up right now are that seemingly no one died and that from what I am hearing about the videos of the guy who did it, he sounds mentally unwell. The wildcard here is what sympathy the American public even has to Israel, it’s supporters, or the hostages at this point.
Israeli diplomatic staff are hard to make sympathetic in the same way a health insurance CEO is hard to make sympathetic. Random elderly civilians are a different story. It’s hard to say what will happen, given what’s going on both domestically and globally. There could be some sort of Trump news tomorrow that pushes this out of the headlines in a day or two.
It’s such 
behavior. It reminds me of the people who seem to sprint to their computer or phones to be the first to post 
any time they hear about a mass shooting.
People who say “nothing ever happens” should be perma’d off this website. Sick of this bullshit. Nothing is happening in Gaza, huh?
Sabotage would be clear based on damage to the bridge, even if there weren’t any witnesses. The type of damage from an explosive would be very different from a collapse.
The silver lining is that I suspect (though I don’t have the figures on me) that China is economically and militarily helping out anti-Israeli forces relatively more than pro-Israeli ones.
China sells more goods to Israel than any other country on earth, and that is up 20% in 2024 from 2023, returning effectively to what baseline exports to Israel was before the war.

China is not helping out anti-Israeli forces more. It’s business as usual and their diplomatic messaging right now is indistinguishable from someone like Emmanuel Macron, saying Israel is commiting war crimes and calling for 2-state solution but not actually doing anything to make that happen, all while continuing to trade with Israel.
What’s happening is that China has been conducting business as usual and continued trading with Israel despite the genocide.
They are supposed to look at mod activity, when they were last active, etc. If you mod a community and you haven’t logged in for a while and/or there is rule breaking activity that gets to the admins before you get to it, they will give the sub to someone else if someone appeals for it. I was given control of the sub for a music festival in my city (against my wishes lol) when I complained about someone spamming porn and no one doing anything about it to the admins. I just wanted them to deal with it, and they did that by giving me the sub, even though I didn’t ask for it.
So, in theory, if those mods weren’t active for a few weeks (or they got banned), and someone did a bunch of rule breaking posts/comments, someone could have come in and requested control.

This is frustrating to read (the PFLP statement) because the idea that regional partners of Israel (the GCC, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Azerbaijan) needed to start paying a price for their support of Israel, explicit or implicit, seemed obvious 12-18 months ago. The Biden admin was very clear that they didn’t want this to escalate into a regional conflict, and the Resistance met them on those terms instead of forcing the US/EU into the exact situation they didn’t want. Arab/Muslim countries that had signed the Abraham Accords and were housing US bases should have been made to pay cost, and they were let off the hook instead.
MBS can give lip service to a Palestinian state all he pleases, but when he allows US naval vessels that attack the Resistance to sit off his coast and resupply from his ports, that makes him an ally of Israel. When that British manlet who rules Jordan shoots down Iranian missiles fired at Israel, that makes him an ally of Israel. When the UAE acts as a makeshift land bridge for Israeli logistics and houses US military bases, that makes them an ally of Israel. When Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan supply Israel with oil and Turkey acts as Israel’s gas station, that makes them allies of Israel.
The Western elite only understand money. If you want to make them hurt, you hurt their bank accounts. Europe is pretty much incapable of fight any war right now, and any expansion of the conflict in the Middle East would have stretched the US very thin supporting both Israel and a GCC that can barely fight as it is. The only reason any of these people are saying anything now is because the images of starvation lay bare how full of shit they are in a way that actually might give them political ossues. And I frankly can’t shake the feeling that liberals only give a shit now because Palestine seems like a hopeless cause, similar to the argument laid out in that Red Sails essay about the influence of Christianity on Western Marxism.
Maybe it’s still worth making someone pay a price, especially after they all just spent turns sucking Donald Trump off on public television and he just fucked over Palestine in return for it, but it’s frustrating to even think about it now.
When you say these are intercepted outside of Israel, are these Israeli interceptors launched from Israel, or are it’s comprador neighbors doing their jobs for them (or letting the US do it from their territory)?
As a frequent em dash user prior to chatgpt, damn that company for making people think I use AI.
