They’re obliterating entire cities, so yeah.

Given that most Palestinians are under the age of 14, this was to be expected: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_State_of_Palestine

Ah, thanks! This is interesting:

Selon Frédéric Encel, géopolitologue et spécialiste du conflit israélo-palestinien, « un policier ou un soldat en armes d’un autre pays n’a pas le droit d’y rentrer sans l’accord du consulat français »10, cependant selon Gérard Araud, ancien ambassadeur de France en Israël, ce domaine ne constitue pas, à la différence d’un consulat une « emprise diplomatique » aux termes notamment de la Convention de Vienne10.

The quotes say that a police officer or soldier of a foreign country cannot enter without permission of the French consulate, but that the region does not constitute a diplomatic enclave.

This is the first I hear about this territory being claimed by France, and there’s no mention of it on the French Wikipedia page for the Mont des Oliviers. Is there any source whatsoever to corroborate that?

Edit: I just realized you’re talking about Dearborn specifically

Yes, because that’s that the article and topic of this thread is about.

Source? Because my Wikipedia link says this:

The city’s population includes 40,000 Arab Americans. Per the 2000 census, Arab Americans totaled 29,181 or 29.85% of Dearborn’s population

And this BBC article from this year says it’s the first Arab majority city in the US. https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20240429-dearborn-michigan-a-visit-to-the-first-arab-majority-city-in-the-us

Rashida Tlaib didn’t outperform Harris because people’s highest priority is Palestine (it really fucking isn’t)

You really don’t think that the city with the most Arabs per capita in the country (and probably all the Americas) had a particular axe to grind about Gaza?

Doesn’t Dearborn have the most Arabs per capita in all the US?

Edit: yes indeed. Gee, I wonder why Tlaib did so well there. Truly a mystery. What’s next, Utah voting for Mormons more than any other state?

Dearborn has the proportionally largest Muslim population in the United States and the largest mosque in North America. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dearborn,_Michigan#Ethnic_groups

Elon looks like one of the pointing soyjaks in that pic.

The EU could easily take on Russia militarily even if the latter weren’t already neck-deep in Ukraine.

It was fueled, as always, by white people.

Looking purely at vote counts, he isn’t wrong. Trump lost about 3 million votes compared to 2020, whereas the Dems lost 15 million. There’s certainly a lot of blame to lay at the feet of “both sides bad” people who didn’t vote, but either way that’s catastrophically bad turnout for the Dems.

Surplus of young single men?

There is one mega-union (the only permitted one) with officials appointed by the CCP. It’s essentially a sham, like the non-CCP parties in Congress that are nominally a type of opposition but can never hold any real power.

And yes, it is ironic and sad. Nordic countries are more communist than China is. China doesn’t even have truly free healthcare like Canada etc.

Yeah, it’s bad. There are fewer worker protections and unions are illegal.

Hilarious. The MAGA movement is like a fractal of grifts.

In large part yes, but younger generations are also not especially motivated to have kids when they already have to deal with a soul-crushing workplace (much worse than in the west).

Gonna leave this here from a reply I made to a similar thread weeks ago. China’s demographics are in very bad shape.
