No no no no. It's, you know, just warfare. Terrible things happen at wars. But you can always send more missiles and bombs so Israel can end the war faster! No genocide to speak of! Just mundane defensive war.

Yes. Most people don't have the awareness of a lot of what's been said in the comments or they suspend it in their daily lives. They do what they feel is right and since most were socialised in a similar way the signal-response expectations match. Then a certain rapport can be formed by the empty interactions borne out of the semi-conscious feeling that it's "right" or "nice" to initiate a small talk and respond to it in kind. In this way indeed most of us are like 15 yo girls, just somewhat more serious and self-controlled.
If I were in a condescensing mood I'd say humans generally are bots following Pavlov's reaction patterns imprinted during upbringing. But this would be a severe oversimplification and a little a-hole talking through me.
OK so what does it mean for Haley?
Of course they do someone cleans their houses, someone drives their limousines, someone brings cookies to meetings with lawyers.
Some research shows that the newer variants can hang in the air for up to 12 hours.
That's an amount of gear and people comparable to what a mid-sized European country could have and what a big European country could muster on short notice. It's "only" a factor of 2 or 3 less than what Russia prepared for Ukraine at the beginning. It's likely more than the combined forces of the Baltic states' militaries and the NATO contingents stationed there.
With a generous dose of optimism it is a force that would at least hold a conventional invasion at bay, if not defeat it via superior tech and sea support. It is a lot even in absolute terms, for an exercise it's massive.
Sad but maybe at least someone will drag the virus into a mansion of some superrich prick and he'll spend the rest of his life with brain fog.
...until morale improves.
Rumor has it that the plan is to get 100 bn of this money funneled to Ukraine support mechanisms. With the 50bn EUR the EU is trying to move from their coffers it would add up to 3 years' worth of secured in advance support for Ukraine. Which is important because who knows what kind of nutjobs and assets will rule both the US and the EU institutions by the end of 2024.
Whether pro-Israeli bots like it or not, numerous acts by IDF do fit perfectly into descriptions of the acts forbidden by the convention. Even if the case is eventually dismissed it will be on technical grounds such as "it's actually a war crime not a genocide" not because "IDF did nothing wrong".

I don't get $8 million for doing nothing
Aaand there goes the last credible line of defense: that his only connection was ownership and he was detached from operations and books of the company. But alas.
Damn, imagine if Larian took over... Also I didn't know they're Tencent's lol
