Depends on the journal I guess, my wife worked at multiple publishers and there's normally an insultingly small stipend for the editorial board members and writers

Reviewers and writers actually do get a stipend, but it's a token amount like 200 bucks a year. This industry is the most ass backward incentive structure we could possibly create, the only reason writers would provide articles to a journal is literally for the clout.

I'm not saying youre necessarily wrong, but it's not like hezbollahs militants have decent trigger discipline. Peak tensions combined with an armed fanatic and an easy target has a tendency to end in violence.

Palestine can't destroy Israel, but there are quite a few like minded governments surrounding the country that have attempted that before.

Even specific to this invasion, hamas is suspected to be receiving considerable backing from another country to destabilize Israel or any other myriad reasons. This conflict isn't happening in an isolated bubble with just two sides.

The problem is that it's so inert, it becomes impossible to remove from a contaminated environment or particularly a person's blood stream.

The amount that inevitably gets caught in your blood will just stay in your body forever, settling down in a critical organ like your brain or kidneys and giving you cancer or some other horrible problem.
