I expect that user will suggest that Blinken is also “trolling” 

No he just wants to see more bombs falling on civilians, no different to other American politicians that have done the same for decades in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and many other countries around the world.

 

Quote

The Israeli Air Force has said that it had dropped about 6,000 bombs on Gaza in just the first six days of the assault. Then, around three-and-a-half weeks into the massacre, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said that Israeli forces have dropped 10,000 bombs and missiles on Gaza City alone, while Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor data showed that Israel had dropped 25,000 metric tons of explosives on Gaza between October 7 and November 2 — more than the explosive power of the nuclear bomb that the U.S. dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, in 1945.

Quote

Twenty-two thousand bombs is a staggering amount of explosives. As The Washington Post pointed out last month, in 2019, the most brutal year for aerial bombings carried out by the U.S.-led coalition in Afghanistan, about 7,300 bombs were dropped on the region. Israel, meanwhile, is dropping these weapons on one of the most densely populated places on Earth.

Biden is going down bad

 

 

The last time a President embarrassed and disgusted the intelligence agencies this badly was Bay of Pigs, and… well, we know what happened to Kennedy

Joe Biden deserves to lose in an embarrassing landslide in November for this vote alone.

Motaz Azaiza had less than half a million Instagram followers before Oct 7. He just passed 17.3million, passing Joe Biden

I'd agree with you IF the alternative wasn't exactly the same. Trump administration would have voted against the resolution also. I totally get not wanting to vote at all, but in my opinion Biden "deserves to lose in an embarassing landslide" only if the person he's losing to was that much more humane than him, but he's not, not at all. And Nikki Haley isn't either. Nor is RFK Jr. So it's a damn sorry situation to be in. But to repeat, I'm not saying to vote for Biden, just that his loss would be more justified if there was someone else to vote for in good conscience.

You keep quoting awful people, I wonder why

I could literally quote anyone on the American political spectrum from extreme right to extreme left including Trump, Haley, RFK, Biden, Bernie, and Williamson, stating similar opinions and you would still tag them as “awful” people simply for condemning Hamas. 
 

 

“We all know the current war in the Middle East was begun by Hamas' brutal terrorist attack against Israel”

 

 

Consider that you guys are not exclusively the smartest people in the room.  And that this issue can viewed from a non-terrorist sympathizing lens.

... Yes, that's the point hunny. Stop quoting American politicians on this issue.

Seems to have been designed to. After all, Israel's blockade on Gaza (which somehow is seen as an acceptable improvement over occupation by the West, even though nothing is meaningfully different) means they have direct control over access to food, water, and electricity. An eventual effort to starve the people of Gaza was only ever going to be inevitable.

No, you take the word "west" too literally. It's not about geography. Australia is considered a western nation because it aligns with our values. And most people there are of European descent.

 

And I don't think Brazil is mostly white. There's a lot of mixed race people, maybe more than anywhere else in the world. And I think their politics is kinda mixed too, in that some people prefer the west and others the east. Argentina is more white/European, but even they don't always follow western politics, and not necessarily eastern either. It's like South America is trying to find the third option, something outside of the bipolar world order.

 

Brazil is way more "western" than the United States. Not only Brazil, but all of latin america. Every legal system in Latin America is based on Roman Law (the US legal system is based on the germanic law), speak romance languages, the culture is european influenced (like US culture), majority roman catholic (the official religion of the founder of the western civilization, the roman empire), architecture and urbanism influenced by the roman empire as well. Even latin america politics were "imported" from Europe. Concepts of left-wing and right-wing came from Western Europe.

 

People just throw latin america outside the "western world" because it isn't as developed economically as the rest of Europe or North America.

No amount of name-calling will change the fact that Hamas started this war by invading Israel on Oct 7

 

 

 

[Happylittlepunk]

Call me a conspiracy theorist but I truly believe this war with Israel and Palestine  is bigger than what we see. Bigger than hamas etc. There other players involved in this I do believe the US knows more about the situation than what’s happening.  It’s not just hamas started it. Or Israel is just being a dictatorship.

See this is how I know you really have no clue what’s going on because if you think this all started on October 7 then I don’t know what to even tell you. The amount of people who refuse to look at the long line of events that took us here because it destroys their zionist narrative is staggering.

True, the name-calling won’t change that “fact” because you’ve already done it yourself 100 times. I guess if anything changes, it’s that you’re a bigger dumbass than originally thought. Touché.

imagine not being human enough to grasp this.
