i hope the liberals who supported this administration can look back at this tragedy in a decade and despair.
I hope they can't
Is it so much to ask that they look back on these horrors now and throw themselves off bridges?

They won't. Even the ones that virtue signal about being against the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, don't really mean it. It's just focus grouped campaigning.
It's just means-tested campaigning
I don't follow
I figured you were talking about politicians etc., who claim they were against the Iraq/Afghanistan war. And they say that because it polls well now.
Means testing is the practice of limiting eligibility for social programs based on poor people's income, assets, etc. The amount of resources it ostensibly saves the government is usually soaked right back up by the armies of clerks needed to perform all the extra processing and surveilling entailed. It is an absurd and cruel practice, but it doesn't seem to be what you're talking about.
Oh woops wrong word my bad idk why I said it. Is there another word I can use to edit it? I'm not sure what to use...
Edit: maybe focused grouped?
They'll despair as much as they have in the aftermath of the Iraq war; that being not at all and to blame 'the experts' who told them nothing was wrong with Israel or its actions; the same experts who said Iraq had WMDs, experts they'll refuse to stop listening to.
Regardless of what choice they make it'll never be their fault, or if they accept some fault, it'll only be very minorly their fault.
can't look back if your head is in a basket
in a decade
No, that schedule is reserved for cognitive-dissonating that rounding up immigrants into labor camps is a good thing, actually
you have to vote or else the death camps might not be called humanitarian bubbles
It's already a big concentration camp. Now they just want the concentration to go higher. Death to these oppressors.
Won't you think of those poor Israeli settlers who have nowhere else in all of Israel to live but in Gaza itself, in its best locations?
all palestinian violence against israel is self-defense.
“clearing” any such bubble of Hamas fighters and erecting a separation wall
good thing hamas isn't known for digging tunnels
Isn't this ISIS 2.0 in the making?
ISIS has already split off into several splinter groups. The majority of which are CIA assets.
Same as it ever was then
Isis definitely decided to attack Russia for no fucking reason.
Kill Isisrael
Kill the U.S.
Merc every U.S. merc and let their bodies rot in a ditch
CIA death camp mercs get the 
pit
Algeria/Vietnam/mau mau imperialism vibes
This is so nuanced and complicated clearly both sides bad.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
