Big talk for someone who also isn’t about to throw their life away to take potshots at the local police station.
Government agitators: “God why are leftists such little babies! Oh you’re not a little baby? You don’t need a nappy? Well prove it! Commit a violent crime at a peaceful protest RIGHT NOW! Yeah, right into that camera. Great. That’s perfect. Thank you.”
Yeah that’s not even current slang is it? My 50 year old coworkers were saying no mamas 10 years ago.
Napoleon enforced freedom of religion and emancipated the Protestants and Jews of France and in countries under his sway. He set up formal representative bodies that they could elect to interface with the government and settle matters of religious law.
Before the reforms, preaching in a protestant church was a capital offense.
Can we replace him with an actual Italian American instead?
Everyone still likes Frank Sinatra, right?
Oh yeah how could I forget that after conspiring to help the Nazis exterminate the poles, the Russians turned around and conscripted millions of men from the countries they conquered (Poland, Ukraine, etc) and used them to fight off the Nazis that they allowed to invade in the first place! So heroic! So selfless!
As a Belarusian Jew, I can’t wait to hear your revisionist version of my history!
My history book says Hitler (Nazism) and Stalin (Marxism-Leninism) invaded Poland together, which is widely considered to be what began the second world war.
What part of that statement do you take issue with?
I got banned site wide for saying that democrats want to force everyone to get automatic transitions… In a car sub.
I guess I’m transphobic because I didn’t put a /s at the end. 🤷
ML = Marxism-Leninism
An ideology developed by Joseph Stalin to justify Russian Imperial ambition.
AKA, the people who aided the Nazis in their invasion of Poland.
The MLs allied with the original Nazis too.
Sudan? Haiti? Afghanistan?
I could name at least a dozen more actually.
This is tankie cope ^
Seems i struck a nerve.
It’s not a fedora it’s a trilby.
For the record, I think Bibi and most of his government belong in prison. Bibi is a fascist - but so are most Palestinians, for lack of a better word. I think Israel (as well as America, Europe and the Arab states) should pay reparations to all Palestinians who can demonstrate that they personally have been permanently displaced from land that Israelis have settled on, because it IS a humanitarian crisis - partly of their own creation.
But I’m also realistic about arab/islamic nationalism, and how those states treat their ethnic and religious minorities. I support Kurdish independence for the same reason. I support the Christians in Lebanon - I went to school with some in the early 2000’s who were forced from their homes by the same “freedom fighters” who make common cause with Hamas today. Being a non-arab, non-muslim in the Muslim/Arab world is a mortal danger.
There is no scenario where Israel doesn’t exist, and Jewish people in the middle east aren’t subjected to exactly the kind of genocide that you’re accusing Israelis of perpetrating and has been perpetrating against Jews and Christians in living memory, to say nothing of the last thousand years. Some might even call these accusations projection.
If that makes me literally Hitler, then we really don’t have anything to discuss. My side keeps winning. Total Israeli capitulation isn’t ever going to happen. Israel is here to stay. When certain parties finally accept that reality, maybe we can start making moves towards a lasting peace, but that peace will never include simply throwing open the gates and letting the barbarians sack Israel as they did in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Nigeria, Yemen, Sudan and elsewhere.
Why don’t you mind your own fuckin business?
“No! It’s her turn!”
-people who complain about DNC insiders.
Everyone in this thread: I want Israel shattered, and it’s people cast into the sea!
Half the Jews on earth: OK, well we’re not going to let that happen to us without a fight. In fact, since you all keep trying, we’re going to take proactive steps to make that goal basically impossible.
Everyone in this thread: why do you love genocide so much?
Statements like this only further justify the Israeli security apparatus.
Ronald Reagan? The actor?
Yeah honestly I can get behind this one. UN aid organizations in gaza have a proven history of “misallocating” aid directly into the hands of Hamas (thus reinforcing their hold on power).
If people want a Palestine that is democratic and free, putting food directly into the hands of those who need it is a good first step.
It’s unfortunate that food needs to be under armed guard, and it’s even more unfortunate that that armed guard is a PMC, but that’s the political reality we’re in.
America isn’t going to send in troops to fight Hamas over scraps of food - and realistically an official US military presence in Gaza would just further inflame tensions. They’ll take our money, but they don’t want us there.
