Netanyahu's government must fall, only than things would de-escalate.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 months ago (2 children)

What about Yahya Sinwar facing justice for what he did on October 7? You want that too, right?

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 23 points 5 months ago

How about! How about!

It's OK to kill, murder, and rape tens of thousands while starving the rest on a genocidal rampage because a couple hundred dead colonizers!

Fuck outta here.

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 15 points 5 months ago

Yes

And GWBush
And the Saudi royals, including mr bonesaw.
And Putin

Hooray, my tax dollars going to support a genocidal ethnostate once again.

  • Sounds like the troops are to operate the air defense system
  • This looks like further evidence that Iran was able to present a credible threat with their last attack, unlike the framing it received from the Israeli officials
[–] Doorbook@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

which raise the question, where the money they gave israel is going all these years?

[–] yesman@lemmy.world 27 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm glad that the US is putting pressure on Iran against a wider war. I wish we had that kind of leverage with our ally Israel.

[–] ski11erboi@lemm.ee 29 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Iran has a right to defend itself.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I guess, but they don't have a right to attack Israel... which is what they did.

[–] basmati@lemmus.org 12 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Israel has struck spots inside Iran 20 times in the last three years, and killed their head diplomat on purpose. All without provocation. Iran is defending itself and has shown more restraint than Israel or the US has ever.

[–] steventhedev@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Iran is pretty fucking transparent with their goal: to destroy the Zionist entity. The posters literally say "wiping Israel off the face of the Earth is just the beginning". And no, they don't mean "dismantle the state mechanism" like some users here claim. They very much mean it in the "death to the Jews" way.

Framing it as purely defensive is just lying

[–] basmati@lemmus.org 9 points 5 months ago

History did not start on 10/7, and Zionism as a concept SHOULD be destroyed. Zionism is just another enthno fascist ideology.

And no the country with a large Jewish population that has guaranteed seats in parliament does not want to kill all Jews.

Blue dogs after making claim Republicans will be worse:

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 20 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Blue dogs after making claim Republicans will be worse:

Democrats won't deport millions of brown people and force my child and those like her into conversion therapy. So yes, Republicans will be worse.

And this "there's only one genocide that matters" shit is getting old.

One day, when you're out of mommy and daddy's house, you'll have perspective. It comes with growing up

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Whats it like, being on the wrong side of genocide and thinking you have the moral high ground?

"How to lose elections and alienate voters"

Step one: pull the US back into war and deeper into genocide when most of your population hasn't seen peace time in decades, if not, their entire lives.

[–] distantsounds@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Defensive escalation

[–] Objection@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Are they trying to lose? Literally October Surprising themselves.

[–] paf0@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

As if Trump wouldn't do the same thing

[–] Objection@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago

Nobody's said that.
