Sure, because you can destroy an ideology by killing everyone in the group. That will never backfire.

This is some bullshit. I don't care what side of this you're on, if you think killing an organization will stop people from acting in anger and fear against the country that does the killing, all you need to do is look at history to know your thought is wrong.

I'd bet a lot of money he didn't say that, or it's taken out of context.

But I'm sure as shit not giving them a click, there's an almost zero chance the article is better than the headline.

And I have no idea why anyone would read that website let alone promote it on social media

Maybe Israel should quit facilitating their existence then.

Shame, I used to like him.

[-] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

But why would you trust the Washington Examiner?

[-] K1nsey6@lemmy.world -4 points 1 year ago

Why would Fetterman agree to an I review with them? It's almost like you didn't read the article

[-] rob64@startrek.website 3 points 1 year ago

Damnit I voted for him.

If he did say it, he's right. Nothing the bots and keyboard warriors say here is going to change the fact that Hamas needs to disappear. Israel isn't faultless, in fact they are horrible, but taking a side is stupid at this point. You, the internet troll, or whatever, has zero chance to change the outcome.

The best you can hope for is that Hamas dies off without taking innocent people with them.

I'm not a troll, but I agree with you.

[-] Potatofish@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago

Indeed. It's for those who do nothing but downvote obvious truths.
