      Israel is a settler colonialist state using pseudoscience and “Zionism” which is just the same repackaged ideology that justified the extermination of the indigenous population in the United States. Israel is a settler colonialist project that’s main objective is the systematic extermination and land absorption of the Middle East. It’s Manifest Destiny all over again

      If you have a better way for Israel to forestall elections and reckoning for their failure to keep their ghetto under control we would love to hear it. Because using the epstein blackmail to force the US into starting our new forever war, Persian Gulf War III, is what we are working with here.

      And there will be no shortage of pretexts to reopen hostilities no matter of peace agreements afterwards, hence the forever part. We had to cross over to hit a militant group, terror group, whatever. Every time Israel’s leaders’ approval ratings are down or they are facing a vote they can pretext up another round of Iran war.

      The beauty of it, for them, is that Iran is nearly powerless to respond. They’ve a non existant airforce, rudimentary missiles and air defense, and are fundamentally compromised in their communications on a base level allowing near total visibility in what they are doing. Satelites, drones, the air forces, it’s fun killing people that can’t fight back! /s

        Supporting Israel and the US attacking them cements them in power as they rally around the flag. And even if he did get overthrown, nothing better would result. More likely is they kill him in an airstrike, and nothing better will result. Anyone supporting this war is a fool and a traitor to the common good. Ignorance is no excuse.

        Many people do, but there are legitimate concerns about

        1. if an invasion could even actually achieve this,
        2. the humanitarian cost of it (aka A LOT of innocent people dying or losing everything),
        3. the long term effects of destabilizing a whole region and
        4. the damage to the rules based global order caused by yet another war of aggression from a side that is supposed to support and not undermine that order.
