      That’s pretty much what the IDF says whenever they kill a member of Hamas.

      Personally I don’t want to be in their company.

        Of course you don’t. You want to be the ceo of a health insurance company.

          Clever. But no. No more than you want to see Gazans die.

            I certainly don’t want that. But, inaction is compliance.

              If the IDF had not responded to 10/6 by invading Gaza, would that would likewise signal their “compliance”?

                I think we are comparing apples to oranges. If you want to focus on US corporate corruption, I’m game.

                  CEOs die all the time, it never affects the profit-seeking of large corporations.

                    CEOs in the US are not shot down all the time.
