Moderating:
How, especially since this is sans any sort of cite, is this not speculation? Which I have now explained in mod notes twice in less than 48 hours?
How is this not speculation about what caused the conflict? And again, something I’ve noted on repeatedly.
Several others in the thread participated, all of whom should have known better. To all posters, I mentioned the “cusp” in the previous recent notes. We are tipping over it, so here are some instructions to the thread.
First, @Magiver - your uncited speculation kicked off this last one. As such, I’m considering a warning, but I’m going to give myself a fresh cup of coffee before I decide. @Banquet_Bear and @Alessan, your personal passions about Israel are getting in the way of staying on top of what’s going on right now (the purpose of the thread). If you want to throw blame or blamelessness around for the start of the event, take it to the Causation thread.
To all other posters, if you see someone post something that belongs in the other threads, flag it, do not respond to it. Or, respond in the appropriate thread and link back to the post here. Ideally both.
