According to the investigation, another reason for the large number of targets, and the extensive harm to civilian life in Gaza, is the widespread use of a system called “Habsora” (“The Gospel”), which is largely built on artificial intelligence and can “generate” targets almost automatically at a rate that far exceeds what was previously possible. This AI system, as described by a former intelligence officer, essentially facilitates a “mass assassination factory.”
According to the sources, the increasing use of AI-based systems like Habsora allows the army to carry out strikes on residential homes where a single Hamas member lives on a massive scale, even those who are junior Hamas operatives. Yet testimonies of Palestinians in Gaza suggest that since October 7, the army has also attacked many private residences where there was no known or apparent member of Hamas or any other militant group residing. Such strikes, sources confirmed to +972 and Local Call, can knowingly kill entire families in the process.
You have to appreciate the detail of calling an AI targets generator- basically an automated mass killing machine- "the gospel" (literally "the good news"). Especially coming from a culture that with the gospel must have a beef or two.
But they're not challenging them, are they? If they were challenging the opinions then there would need some sort of rebuttal. Instead they're essentially saying that OP worded it wrongly and therefore their points are invalid.
Call it what you want, pushing back on someone's opinion is acceptable, fine, and should be encouraged.
What we need to stop doing is making arguments that something being an opinion means it shouldn't be pushed back on.
It's one thing if someone says I like broccoli better than pizza, it's another when someone makes a statement that is not about their own preferences. Many of those opinions are bad and should be challenged.
this is slicing and dicing of words to try and weave a narrative.
The poster reacted to an opinion negatively and pointed out that people need to stop that behavior.
Can you imagine if someone said "raping children should be ok" and someone else tried to argue that saying people should stop raping children means they attacked the person and not the opinion?
right, they challenged the opinion, stop with the wordplay.
