That's a conspiracy. It's not plausible at all why they would attack the US and then immediately agree to pay for compensation.

Consider reading or listening to this on the question of moral equivalence:
I think you're lying about the "covering up" bits of this story. Investigations into the incident started right away, with the Israeli Air Force claiming that they had mistaken the ship for an Egyptian battle ship. As a result, Israel agreed to pay compensation as mentioned in the article:
In May 1968, the Israeli government paid US$3.32 million (equivalent to US$28 million in 2022) to the U.S. government in compensation for the families of the 34 men killed in the attack. In March 1969, Israel paid a further $3.57 million ($28.5 million in 2022) to the men who had been wounded. In December 1980, it agreed to pay $6 million ($21.3 million in 2022) as the final settlement for material damage to the ship plus 13 years of interest.
Is it just me or is this community heavily biased? I wonder if this pro-Hamas stance is really present on Lemmy or if there's some bot activity going on.
Perhaps they are Jewish and that's why their experiences differ from yours?
After seeing this bullshit, I have an offtopic question: can you block accounts on Lemmy? Pretty sure I never want to read any other line of this guy in my life.
Are they, though? What is Israel supposed to do when the militarized terrorists use civilians as human shields? Not respond and get slaughtered by Hamas again?
I'm seriously asking: what strategy do you suggest for Israel? All answers I can think of right now are laughable in the face of the ideology and moral state of Hamas.
Can you talk more about this here by posting a good quality source?

This one made me giggle. Who are you, the moral internet police?
Glory to Valve for investing in Proton.
How about buying electric instead of combustion while trying to not buy a new car unless it's really necessary? That should reduce emissions, shouldn't it?
How many Americans were killed by Nazi Germany vs the other way around?
Intentions and moral frameworks matter, not only the sheer numbers of casualties.
