    Why was the first thing being about a kid saying a prayer? The responder "recognised" that it was Hebrew on his/her phone and this was apparently important to announce.


    Now the Israelis are helping to help dig people out?

    How do you know they’re Israeli and not a local Jewish organization?

    It's more palpable to dream up a conspiracy against Israelis/the Israeli government.

    Cause calling something a Jewish conspiracy because Jewish people are tangentially involved in the story looks really really awful.

    Let's assume for one second that this was actually a Jewish conspiracy (I understand that it isn't but let's just do it for the sake of argument)

    What purpose could this possibly serve?

    Who knows.
    I doubt we'll be getting a straight answer from Alan.

    Conspiracy mongers like to play off anti-Semitism now and then. It plays well with certain parts of their advertising base.
    But they usually are pretty subtle about it so as not to alienate too many people.
    The building collapse is one of the shocking attention grabbing news stories that they like to work off to ride the trend.

    Chances are this is what happened here.
    Some conspiracy peddler knew mention of Jewish people would get some play. Didn't bother to think too deeply about the plot, as "Jewish people are up to no good" is usually enough.
    ShatterAlan just swallowed it up from twitter or bitchute or wherever and didn't bother to think too hard about it.

    Any structural engineering thoughts on the most recent report. To me there seems to be alot of water ingress into the reinforcement areas judging by the photos which resulted in alot of spalling

    Usual vile racist nonsense from ShatterAlan, I see.

    This kind of crap is peddled by morons who think 'de Jews' run the entire world. 'Jew' is a magic word for them. Jews are using racial tensions to destroy western civilization... Jews are promnoting homosexuality to demoralize the West... blah blah blah.
