Is that really what we're debating? We all know it isn't.

What's important is can they get away with it before losing the support of those propping them up.

When the US and their buddies bombed the fuck out of Iraq and Afghanistan, and we all gathered around to watch the display of "shock and awe" did we bother to find out what they were bombing? Or did we just just go "take that, Taliban and Al-Qaida"?

Anything Israel are doing has been done before by their allies. They know it's shady as fuck, but also know they got away with it too.

When the war on Iraq and Afghanistan started, I stood with my children, one in a stroller outside of Dick Cheney 's house in silent protest. During the Vietnam war I made several trips to Washington DC to protest the war. There is no upside to war. What we can do today, is call, email your senator and congressman that you want the killing to stop, you want the USA to stop funding this genocide. Call every day, it only takes a few minutes and if everyone did that, we would have an impact.

We did actually. With embedded reporters and human rights activists keeping an eye on things to make sure. There aren't a ton of headlines about the US bombing hospitals because we avoided doing that. Shocking, I know.

So, what're the chances you've got nothing to say about the cache of weapons & explosives they found under the hospital along with the fact that it was indeed a Hamas outpost?

???

After all you're educated enough on the subject that you're aware it'd been suspected as a Hamas outpost for years, yes?

???

Wonder how many people you've personally lied to that've seen through the manipulation and propaganda.

And to save you the trouble of responding, fake news, planted goods, paid actors - pick one and go fuck myself. Got it.
