Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- 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 not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

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 37 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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 1 week ago (1 children)

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 1 week 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 1 week ago (1 children)

The World Central Kitchen incident were bad enough.

[–] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

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

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 1 week ago (1 children)

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 1 week ago (8 children)

You sound like someone who wants to do a genocide

[–] roux@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] jagged_circle@feddit.nl -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] roux@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago

So what are you calling a genocide then?

[–] TC_209@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week 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 1 week 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 1 week ago

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

[–] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 1 week 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 1 week ago

eat a fucking bullet you piece of shit

[–] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 1 points 1 week 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.

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!

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

[–] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 33 points 1 week 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 1 week ago (2 children)

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

[–] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 27 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Isn't it really more like America is using israel puppet-like, decrying their actions while being the hand inside?

Course you could argue it's more like israel has infiltrated and co-opted america's politics too, but honestly the result is the same, that Amerikkka and Israel are not allies at all, but one entity

[–] AmericaDelendaEst@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Why does America want Palestine genocided? Why does america want Israel to bomb Americans in the process?

Because israel and america are one body politic. I'm sure you agree that Israel-America want the land, and we have tons of evidence that israel-America does not care if non-elite Americans die.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

Why does america want Israel to bomb Americans in the process

I doubt they want that, but I doubt even more that they care; technically they bombed the guy's family, not other Americans, but regardless...

That's the price America is winning to pay for an unsinkable aircraft carrier in the region.

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Because amerikkkan kkkristians believe that Israel conquering and taking all of Palestine is a necessary precondition to the apocalypse which they want because kkkristianity is an apocalyptic death cult.

[–] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Bekkkause amerikkkan kkkristians believe that Israel kkkonkkkuering and takkking all of Palestine is a necessary prekkkondition to the apokkkalypse which they want bekkkause kkkristianity is an apokkkalyptikkk death kkkult.

[–] xiaohongshu@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The same reason America supports Ukraine, the mujahideen and any other terrorist forces in recent history - to turn the regions into wastelands to achieve their geopolitical aims without having to sacrifice the lives of a single American soldier. It’s that simple.

death to pissrael death to amerikkka

The entire Isn'treally military brass gets the wall.

[–] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week 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
