If another country attacks you are forced to defend yourself and be "involved". Its mostly about who starts the war America spends the most money by far on this industrial complex. Point blank “One thing the empire is about to realize is that the western public has lost all its appetite for war. All the careful sanitising, video-gamifying and propagandizing that has been put in place since Vietnam in order to build a platform of consent for “humanitarian” wars has cratered into nothing over the course of mere weeks. You can’t have an up close and personal relationship with the reality of bombs and all the things they do to human flesh and then go back to the way you were ever again. Millions of western eyes have been changed forever. “War” is not abstract any more.“ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are brutal to their own people too. If it wasn't Israel, they for sure would fight each other all day long. This is their operating system anyway.

It's just that there's flawed logic on both ends. Israel terrorizing Gaza is also a form of terrorism. Not much different from Hamas, just sophisticated. The flawed logic is to equalize Hamas to IDF. They are the complete opposite of eachother by their goals, values, level of development. If people don't know how to distinguish between an army which aims to protects its civilians and between a terrorist organization which aims to kill and destroy as much people as possible, then there is a serious problem.

And this toxic extreme relativism ("just two sides of the same coin") end up serving only the less developed and in our case also less healthy side.

A very serious problem is awarengly ignoring the fact that Hamas deliberately uses people in Gaza as human shields, and blaming everything on Israel. Luckily there won't be Hamas soon.

Posted November 29, 2023 12 hours ago, Leo Gura said: Yes. If Hamas was as evil as some of you want to believe they would have killed all the hostages. I think they took the hostages in the first place so they can use them as a pressure card against Israel if things got bad and it did, so no point in killing them. But the thing is, were any hostages harmed or women raped? I was actually surprised when Hammas started shooting down civilians in 7th October, Islam clearly prohibits killing civilians. It is a well known teaching among Muslims, not to kill civilians, women, old people, children or anyone who doesn't hold a weapon. "Say to the sheep in your secrecy when you intend to slaughter it, Today you are slaughtered and tomorrow I am. Both of us will be consumed. My blood and your blood, my suffering and yours is the essence that nourishes the tree of existence.'" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
