America’s support for genocide isn’t an accident. It isn’t an anolomy. It’s what America always does. It’s what the system was built on.
Look at the size of America’s military. Look at the size of America’s wealth. Look at who benefits.
If you defend capitalism, you defend that.
But if it came to it, if my death in a bayonet charge contributed to the destruction of Russia, sign me the fuck up.
And the deaths of your loved ones? Your sons, your nephews, your brothers? Still worth it?
Not to mention the lives of the soldiers you kill in battle. Every one of them as precious as yours.
Hey, quick question. Are you male and old enough to be drafted?
You seem a little eager for WWIII, and I’m wondering if you’re going to be one of the people fighting in it.
Instead of releasing a huge number of these insects into trash sites (which isn’t practical)
Try it anyway!
All the people who were saying “But logically, Harris is still the best option” really misunderstand how people vote.
People vote with their heart. They have to be enthusiastic about their candidate. If they aren’t enthusiastic, they stay home.
There was a burst of enthusiasm for Harris when she was nominated, because people thought she might do something about Gaza. That enthusiasm evaporated when we realized she probably wouldn’t.
Google can and do remove offensive reviews.
But OP was asking about travelling the world. Sign language wouldn’t help with that.
Sign language isn’t one language. There’s American Sign Language, British Sign Language, Australian Sign Language, Nigerian Sign Language, etc.
American Sign Language and British Sign Language are completely unintelligible to each other.
You know, now that Biden has lost the election and no longer needs the support of AIPAC, there’s no reason for him to continue to allow Netanyahu to do this.
Biden could stop this all with a phone call. He could tell the US ambassador to the UN to stop vetoing Security Council resolutions about Israel.
But he won’t. Because it’s not about electability. The truth is that Biden supports what is happening in Gaza. He thinks the primitive barbaric Gazans are getting what they deserve for standing up to the noble white people who are trying to civilize them.
You know what that’s called? It’s called being a white supremacist.
Biden is a genocidal white supremacist, and I wish the Democrats would fucking admit it, but they won’t.
WHAT’S HIS EXCUSE NOW, DEMOCRATS? WHAT’S HIS EXCUSE NOW?
Genocide apologists, all of them. Scratch a liberal, find a white supremacist.
the election of Donald Trump triggered a chain of events that ceased scientific progress globally
This is hyperbolic.
There’s more to the world than the USA. And even during the first Dark Ages, scientific progress didn’t cease globally. Just in Europe.
There was quite a lot of progress in mathematics and science in the Middle East during the so-called Dark Ages.
Why is this downvoted? Shouldn’t Democrats love this? This is a win-win for the Democrats and Greens.
John Oliver just described on his latest show how Georgia state rep Ruwa Romman (a Palestinian-American woman in a swing state) arranged a vote swap with someone in a non-swing state, where Romman would vote for Harris in exchange for a vote against Harris. And John Oliver is as Democrat as they come.
And I think one vote for Harris in a swing state in exchange for two votes against Harris elsewhere is more than generous to the Democrats right now considering the circumstances.
“I mean, Elon Musk joked to me, and he has, I think, many times, that he’s going to go to prison if Trump loses,” Carlson said.
LOL. Billionaires don’t go to prison in America.
the powers that be (UK and US primarily) already have control of the area (still Mandatory Palestine), and a desire to maintain control of the area, they decide to give most of that land to the Jews and call it Israel.
Israel wasn’t created by the UK or the US (or the UN). Israelis declared the state of Israel themselves after seizing territory in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.
The UN did have a plan to create an Israel in 1947, but that didn’t happen, because neither the Jews, the Arabs, nor the UK were on board.
but Israel doesn’t get to say they want to control the entire region?
What do you mean Israel doesn’t “get” to say that?
Israel does say that, and Israel does control the entire region, and almost every Western power allows them to.
I think a Two-State Solution would be a good idea (and I have opinions on exactly where the border should go), but it will have to be imposed on Israel by the international community.
Israel has never been sincere about a Two-State solution, and their “offers” to Palestine have been inadequate and unworkable, and the Palestinians have been right to reject them because there’s no point in accepting a deal that won’t lead to peace. Only a fair and workable deal can lead to peace.
Israel has demonstrated that they are an illegitimate state, because legitimate states do not bomb the stateless people living within their borders. At this point we should be treating Israel like Imperial Japan or Nazi Germany. The Israeli military should be placed under foreign control, and the West Bank (including East Jerusalem) and Gaza returned to the Palestinians.
So far, the only thing stopping this from happening has been the United States’ support for Israel.
Israel needs to realize that the United States is rapidly declining in power, and if Israel doesn’t voluntarily cede the Palestinian territories, Israel might not exist at all in the near future.
Just to be clear, Hamas does not want to eradicate the Jews. That is a myth propagated by Israel.
Hamas wants to eliminate Israel, by which they mean they want Israel replaced by an Arab-majority state in which both Jews and Arabs live. (Hamas want the return of 4 million Palestinian refugees to Israel/Palestine, which would make it an Arab-majority state.)
Furthermore, they have indicated they are open to negotiating a Two-State solution.
I don’t think it makes any sense to portray Hamas as unreasonable for wanting Arabs to control the whole land (from the river to the sea) when Israel want the same thing for Jews.
Israel struck first in the Six Days War.
Over a shipping route.
There’s something else I want to mention.
In 1947, the UN attempted to sort out Britain’s mess by creating a “partition plan” in which the land would be split between a state of Israel and a state of Palestine.
Though adopted as a UN resolution, it was never implemented, and the aforementioned civil war broke out instead.
I just mention this because I find a lot of people are under the misimpression that Israel was created by the UN in 1947 as some kind of compensation for the Holocaust, and that’s not what happened.
In 1948, just after WWII, the UK decided to carve a chunk out of Palestine and create a new state there, called Israel - as a Jewish homeland that would take all the refugees that the rest of Europe didn’t want to deal with
That’s not what happened.
Firstly, the Balfour Declaration was in 1917, during World War I. By 1948, the Jews were already living there, and fighting for the land.
Secondly, Britain never partitioned the land, and never announced any intention to partition the land. (Things might have been very different if they had.) I think you’re getting confused with the UN’s partition plan, which was never implemented.
