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!

ftfy.
Holy shit it's almost like Israel could've just:
Listened to intelligence reports of an impending attack.
Actually fucking manned their border with the troops they committed to an offensive so terrorists couldn't just waltz in on motorcycles and paragliders lmao.
And avoided committing the equivalent of around 40 x October 7ths against innocent civilians!
Thanks for proving the point that this offensive was unnecessary.
You’re such a hypocrite! You really do speak out of both sides of your mouth. Here’s Kamala (the candidate that you are rabidly willing to give up your integrity and fight fellow leftists to help install) giving a speech to her true constituents: Vote for Kamala! The harm REDUCTION candidate!
Nothing brings a bigger smile to my face than a spammer spewing lies and contextual half-truths following me around to other threads after I whooped their ass in in another thread.
In that case, I’ll keep following you around and posting this since it makes you smile so much.
It’s pretty hard to sell that “half truths” thing when all I did was share an uncut video of Kamala saying and cheering for the very things you’re pretending to be against while rabidly defending her to people that you accuse of being trolls.
Boy, you're really running the gamut on fallacies — now committing a straw-man fallacy of my own position! How desperate :(
I'll remind you of what I wrote since you keep deflecting:
The amount of deflections is laughable and a concession that I won. Thank you :)
I agree with what you say in general about Israel but here is a big downvote for being so fucking rude.
You're missing context with this user who was stalking me across several communities. As a result they were banned and countless of their comments removed by mods.
So excuse me for dishing back what was originally served.
Fair enough. Didn't know the backstory.
THEIR money? Are you serious???
To be martyred in Arabic means to bear witness to being killed unlawfully, even people who die by mistake can be thought of as martyrs. To all the parents and children who lost each other, their loved ones being a "martyr" offers condolences in shitty times if war because it means instant entry to heaven in Islam. Culturally the term is applied even to non Muslims, especially when butchered needlessly by Israel. It's not like a death cult, it just means "killed unjustly" and literally translated to "Witness". It's a bit of a mistranslation...
Shit religion? Sure. I don't give a fuck. Islam sucks like all the rest.
Shit people? I can't change your view if you are just a racist.
You said shit people. Islam isn't worse than other religions.
But I don't give a crap about conversing with you so don't bother
You sound like some internet edgelord. Anyway not in the mood for a covo with people who will use their antitheism to veil their racism.
