This should be considered an act of war, but I have a feeling the US government will just kiss Israel’s ass again.

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 38 points 2 years ago

Israel could poison Joe Biden's dogs and he'd probably find a way to excuse it.

They could probably assassinate Hunter and it would quietly disappear

[-] context@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago

biden-the-thing those dogs are bitey, israel has a right to defend itself. and let's face it, hunter's no angel after the federal weapons charge and all.

[-] stink@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 2 years ago

Come on Jack, hunter had to get hunted. It had to happen, he should be proud to have been killed by the master race.

US stayed quiet when Israelis sunk USS liberty in 1963 after all.

[-] TheWolfOfSouthEnd@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 2 years ago

The World Central Kitchen incident were bad enough.

[-] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

The fact the IDF could do not just one, but two, targeted strikes on WCK convoys boggles the mind

[-] TheWolfOfSouthEnd@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

…and in the face of that people are still claiming we need to defend Israel. Baffling.

[-] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

Hey, the yanks ignored their journalist from getting cut up and dumped, after all.

What's OK: an "ally" or rich people doing crimes

What's not OK: a poor neutral party or enemy doing crimes.

Khashoggi's murder fell under #1. A rich "ally" was the perpetrator, so double innocent.

Watching western governments glaze Mr. Bone Saw is stomach churning.

[-] joaomarrom@hexbear.net 45 points 2 years ago

none of these people are human, monsters every single one of them, white house, knesset, IOF, none of them deserve the air they breathe

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl -5 points 2 years ago

You sound like someone who wants to do a genocide

[-] roux@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

Killing your oppressors will always be the right thing to do. Now fuck off.

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl -2 points 2 years ago

Killing oppressors is not the same thing as a genocide. Genocide kills civilians too.

[-] roux@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

So what are you calling a genocide then?

[-] TC_209@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

Thank goodness you're here to center the conversation on the real victims: the White House, the Knesset and the Israeli military. Truly the most oppressed and vulnerable groups are politicians and soldiers.

[-] moondog@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

This isn't the first time that Joaomarron has posted about wanting to do genocide either, look at this recent comment he made.

[-] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

qin-shi-huangdi-fireball Unlimited genocide on the first world.

[-] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 2 years ago

You could have sympathized with his anger yet tell him about the importance in remembering the humanity and complex nature of our oppressors rather than writing this smart Aleck "you sound just like them" bullshit.

Equating somebody's behavior or rhetoric with his enemies' almost never works. Most of the time it only worsens the situation and makes you look inconsiderate.

[-] Kuori@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

eat a fucking bullet you piece of shit

[-] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

How does "IDF, Knesset, and White House" imply genocidal intent.

Do you equate all of Judaism with the Israeli State's current government? Do you think Netanyahu speaks for all Jews? Do you think every Jewish person joined and supports the IDF?

Your comments sound anti-semitic as fuck.

[-] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 39 points 2 years ago

The fact that an arms embargo is even the thing we’re questioning is crazy.

The debate about Israel should be whether we just carpet bomb Tel Aviv or if we do a ground invasion.

I think this would be good for American imperialism even. Just switch sides, start giving Hamas tons of weapons and resources and have a single secular or Islamist Palestine be your new puppet and military base. It’s not like we’re too racist to have a Muslim country as one of our allies and puppets. The Saudis, UAE, Jordan, etc. are all right there. We love giving weapons to “Islamic extremists”! It’s the national pastime!

[-] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 36 points 2 years ago

Israel declares war on United States of America. United States gives them more money and weapons anyway.

[-] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 33 points 2 years ago

If you don't support Israel bombing American citizens you're an anti-semite. That's what I would say if I was at a press conference with that fucking ghoul Matt Miller

[-] AmericaDelendaEst@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

the way Israel gets to act like a mad dog despite being a "vassal" makes me wonder what sort of leverage they have that allows them to get away with it

[-] godlessworm@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

death to pissrael death to amerikkka

[-] Bidentime@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

Silence speaks volumes

[-] REEEEvolution@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 2 years ago

The entire Isn'treally military brass gets the wall.

[-] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

filing the paperwork for Israel's Imperial tasks for the day and accidentally filing a bunch of names into the "bomb" pigeonhole and not the "save these people from the grips of the evil Muslims" pigeonhole

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:

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.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
