Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

No, worst case scenario involves nukes.
To you. For them they've already lost entire branches of their extended families. A figurative nuke already went off for them.
Oh dear, have they done anything to stop 20 years of build-up of tunnels and weapons underneath them?
Have you done anything to stop your government from building military bases?
Why would I try to stop something that I fully support? Last time I checked, the US doesn't have a policy of slaughtering civilians.
Lol you should check what we consider to be acceptable "collateral" casualties.
It's the exact same definition in the Geneva convention: proportional military casualties.
But feel free to simp for dictatorships that literally execute people for thought crime.
I'm not defending any government. I'm drawing a line between you and the Gazans. They couldn't stop Hamas from building a military base anymore than you can stop the US Government from doing so. Putting that burden on their shoulders and the shoulders of their American relatives is insane at the least.
You're right, no one has responsibility for anything. We should do away with all government. It just holds back the anarchy of the masses. Let's get rid of government and shitty things they invent like the Geneva conventions and the UN and NATO. Who needs all that bs. No one should be able to stand up to the mighty HAMAS.
Wow you killed that straw man good.
Does it ever get tiring defending terrorism?
I wouldn't know. I'm not the one defending people killing civilians en masse.
Sure seems like you're defending 10/7 to me
