If you like that idea you might like my library Bluefin, where even throwing exceptions requires an explicit value telling you where control will return to. https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bluefin

Yes, although it can be violated by unsafePerformIO and friends. Haskell's is not an "assured" system.

Yes, there is a sense in which Haskell's "effect systems" are "capability systems". My effect system, Bluefin, models capabilities as values that you explicitly pass around. You can't do I/O unless you h

Interesting idea! How do you think it would turn out? You might like to reference in your answer the time in 2005 when Israel did exactly that, and the consequences that occurred on Oct 7 2023.

I think it's ambiguous whether to pronounce then abbreviate or abbreviate then pronounce. Here are some example from the Haskell world: https://h2.jaguarpaw.co.uk/posts/pronouncing-abbreviations/

You're presenting that dichotomy, not me. I'm sure they have plenty of possible courses of action. I'm just trying to say that it's not obvious to me that they actually want a state, and if they don't then there&#x2

I just can't understand, if they are suffering all that, why they didn't jump at the chance for their own state one of the many times they were offered one. It's not as though Mahmood Abbas or Yasser Arafat are hated Palestin

by tome 2y ago
Maybe they don't like it, but if so then I would have thought they would have chosen statehood when they were offered it in 2000 or 2008. Moreover, they never even had any land to begin with! No country of Palestine has ever existed.

The point is if they wanted a state they would have agitated for one during the UN Resolution 181 vote. But they didn't. Or they would have agitated for it between 1948 and 1967, when they were occupied by Egypt and Jordan. But th

Then why didn't Jordan and Egypt give them a country when they controlled the territory where they live? The answer is because they didn't want a country there, they wanted the land that is called "Israel". Egypt never

Not all of them were already there. Many immigrated there from Jordan (and to the Gaza Strip from Egypt) post 1948. In the West Bank they are former Jordanian citizens who had their citizenship revoked post 1967. Egypt never offered resid

Then we're broadly in agreement. Some of the settler behaviour is atrocious and enabled by segments of the military. Did you know, however, that the word "settler" applies to any Jew living beyond the Green Line, generally in

Why should they be given independence? They're formerly Jordanian citizens and formerly Ottoman subjects. It's not as though some country or civil polity has been eliminated and needs to be restored. There never was any. They

Are you saying it is not Israeli government policy to abuse detainees?

Israel is in administrative control over that part of the land. It's not clear to me exactly how much it owes the people who reside there, who used to be Jordanian citizens and who had their citizenship stripped by Jordan. That part of

No plausible alternative government would have conducted the war in a way that would have avoided the slander of "genocide" and "murdering children". People will accuse Israel of that regardless.

If you read my post closely you will see I am not invoking any right, nor justifying Israel's occupation of those lands (although I do believe they were justified). I'm merely pointing out that occupation of those lands was carri

by tome 2y ago
Occupied from whom? Who was the previous government of that land? The fact is, there has never been an independent modern state in that land. Before 1967 it was occupied by Jordan. Before 1948 it was occupied by the British Mandate, and bef

Israeli prisons are not run by the military. Holding people without formal charges is called "administrative detention" and also happens in Australia, Brazil, the UK and the US. Perhaps some abuses happen during that process. I wo

Israel claims the Golan Heights as part of its sovereign territory. It captured the Golan Heights during a defensive war in 1967, when it also captured the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula. It gave back the Sinai Peninsul

It is not the policy of the Israeli military to torture prisoners. If your point is "The US behaved significantly worse than Israel in Abu Ghraib and I hate the US" then fair enough. I don't really have a response.
328.

Yes, that's my point. Any plausible Israeli government, left, right or centre, would have conducted the war in roughly the same way, including the historical left governments of Ben Gurion, Meir, Rabin, Peres or Barak. Thus attempts to

The 2021 elections ended with a government of 61 seats, including 7 seats for Labor (left), 6 seats for Meretz (fairly hard left), 4 seats for Ra'am (Islamist), so 25% from what would be considered a "left bloc" from a Wester

Presenting it in those false terms makes you a bad guy, yes. Israel is not a "military state" and a left wing Israeli government would have carried out much the same military operations. "Children" were not bombed. Mi
