IDF should stop claiming civilian infrastructure is hiding Hamas terrorists.

And instead use it's intelligence to locate them.

As the other comment said, that's a façade. It's not actual bricks, but rather pieces of stone (or, judging by the fact that these exact shapes can be found worldwide, lookalikes) that are laid onto the face of a brick/cinder block/concrete core.

You seriously believe in Lamarck? Like, I don't know, I'm not a native speaker, maybe I'm missing something.

How many fucking times do we have to repeat this: TRAITS ACQUIRED DURING LIFETIME ARE NON-INHERITABLE

If you lose your fingers in an industrial accident, your children aren't going to be born fingerless, are they?

Giraffes don't have long necks because one little giraffe long, long ago tried really, really hard to grow a longer neck, but because giraffes who had been born with longer necks could compete better than those without, and pass on their genes. And they got those necks due to mutations.

Environmental pressure selects for benefitial mutations, while the mutations themselves are random. That's literally the mechanism of evolution through natural selection.

I'm sorry, is this somehow a revelation? "Direct heir" they say... There is a very good chance that "penal colony" is a former Gulag.

That's not the part I'm disagreeing with. It's generally agreed upon, that Tokyo Ghoul is absolute trash. The first season is passable, but everything after is just not worth the time. And even that passable first season is like 5/10 at best. It's an absolute disgrace of an adaptation seeing as the original is an 8-9/10 manga.

That's definitely an opinion on Tokyo Ghoul. In fact, one of the opinions of all time.

A: Read my comment again, it explains what happened, and what can be done to change this.

B: The situation described was under the previous government. They were (for all intents and purposes) the same as Republicans when it came to abortion.

The Polish society at large remains split (unfortunately), and the part that doesn't want legalisation of abortion is also most politically active in terms of voter mobilisation (i.e. they tend to move their asses on election days) and the moderate right (which is part of the current government) doesn't want to potentially alienate those voters.

Right now it seems that the best course of action will be a decriminalisation, and a return to the previous status quo: abortion is legal when the life of women is at stake. This would mean that while getting one wouldn't be illegal, Polish hospitals wouldn't give you one. Any liberalisation beyond that seems to be an issue for a national referendum, which the moderate right is neutral on (i.e. they would allow one to happen, and would not stop things if liberalisation won)

"The ruling government is admitting they don't have the money to fund the state media" say the people who carted out the funds from state media.

It's been two weeks. They've been in power for two weeks.

And you have to understand, this isn't caused by the right-wing passing some law, oh no, no... The Constitutional Court declared abortion unconstitutional. To change this, the new government needs to either change the constitution (requires a massive majority in Parliament), or completely rebuild the current justice system, replacing the CC justices responsible for that ruling (which will take a long time). Any attempt to do it with a simple act will get struck down by the right-wing in just the same way.

That is nothing to say about the fact that about a third of government coalition doesn't want complete legalisation, only a return to the old "compromise"

EDIT: And they did manage to do a lot in those two weeks so far, it's not like this is the only thing they promised to do.

Just so we're all on the same page:

THIS HAPPENED IN JULY.

Just in case anyone wants to pin the blame on the new government.

The controversy is theoretically still ongoing for this case, but on the down low, as just one part of the backlash against the restrictions put on abortions in Poland 3 years ago.
