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!

Ah the blame game. Nice propaganda, but let's look at the facts.
Hamas kidnapped Israelis. THEY took Israelis hostage. THEY chose to hold the hostages among civilians. Many civilians chose to help THEM. Israel came to rescue the hostages. THEY fired at Israel. Israel fired back.
Hamas, not Israel or the US, are to blame for ALL civilian casualties.
That and the fact that genocide is infinitely more evil than terrorism. Terrorism isn't good, but genocide can never be the response to terrorism. Because terrorism will always exist, and genocide never can. If genocide was an acceptable response to terrorism then there would be genocide every day, rather than never.
Ignoring the decades of illegal occupation, Israel continues to hold ten times the number of hostages that Hamas has ever held. No one is buying your hasbara anymore.
Exactly. And the West Bank is hamas. That’s why the settlers are detaining it. Dead pregnant women? They were actually blinds for little hamas snipers. Historical abuses of Palestinians by Israel is just a hamas psyop. Journalism? More like hamasism!
"Look what you made me do."
"Think, Palestine. What will you have in a thousand years?!"
The very last person you want around you when the bullets fly is one that believes there should be a cause with no effect. Even Hamas knows this. Hamas was well aware of the consequences of its crimes and counted on more victims, which is why it held hostages in a densely populated area. Only Hamas and those who help it are responsible for these actions.
Saving this for the next time someone says no one here supports genocide.
All the liberals here support genocide. Every single one. Most are too afraid to admit it and hide behind cries of "vote blue no matter who" and accusing anyone who opposes the genocide in Gaza of being a trump supporter or Russian bot, this one was just dumb enough to say the quiet part out loud. If I were smart and cared about my mental health I'd just block every librart on here (: their shit is never entertaining, just frustrating and depressing
Holy fuck, you poor moron.
Considering the source that's a compliment
I often forget idiots like you exist. People so deranged they blame the people who were forced to violence so they could be blamed for the genocide against them. People who were abused and tormented who decided to fight back with less than pure means.
Don't wake up tomorrow.
Forced to rape and murder?
Same mindset as bin Laden. How'd that work out for him?
Ask the US military if they've ever raped or murdered someone who didn't deserve it.
Every fighting force has psychos in it
For that we have the US Military Code of Coduct, and we put such military in prison or death. Don't talk about things you know nothing about.
Which gets broken constantly and you're a moron if you think it doesn't go unpunished. Take Israel's dick out of your mouth, they don't care about you.
There's a special wing of military at Ft. Leavenworth that would disagree. Sinwar won't fuck you even though you have that cute kufiyyeh on.
I know a vet that would disagree.
Know one, huh.
