Biden is a fuckin Monster, When his Presidency is looked back on he should be remembered for the Billions of Dollars of Missiles he sent to Israel to slaughter innocent folk. That's his Legacy complicit in Mass Murder.
I think his (the republicans) hands are tied until after the election such is the influence of the Israel lobby in US politics. After the election (unless trump wins) I suspect the US will take a much firmer stance with Israel - probably why netanyahu is in such a hurry to get the atrocities done and ideally entrench the us in a conflict with Iran before then.
I think you're on the edge of what's acceptable. I think you'd like to say "controlled by Jews" but fear the accusation of antisemitism. It's not easy - the IHRC definition and examples of antisemitism tread a fine line of distinction between Israel's policies and Jews, but then the distinction is blurred by Israelis themselves so any criticism of Israel is decried as antisemitism.

His post uses language straight from the Protocols.I think you're on the edge of what's acceptable. I think you'd like to say "controlled by Jews" but fear the accusation of antisemitism. It's not easy - the IHRC definition and examples of antisemitism tread a fine line of distinction between Israel's policies and Jews, but then the distinction is blurred by Israelis themselves so any criticism of Israel is decried as antisemitism.
Zionists living abroad is itself a self-contradiction. Zionism was (is still?) a call to all Jews to move to the Jewish state. Now that most Israelis are not immigrants but descendants of immigrants, how many still identify as Zionists?
Half of Israeli Jews are non-religious (Hiloni) which means they may be sceptical about the extent of Eretz Israel historically. Half of Israeli Jews think Arab Israelis should be expelled from Israel (not necessarily the same half or the other half).
Some of this goes back to the first half of the last century and what the Zionists thought should happen to the "indigenous" Arab population in the proposed Jewish State. That seems to vary from a rather racist assumption that lazy Arabs would be happy to benefit from the ingenuity and hard work of Jews to a realisation that usurping their land would not be an easy thing.
Anyway, that was really just personal musing as a preamble to sharing this article, a year on from October 7. It's useful, but is rather silent about conditions in Gaza and the West Bank prior to October 7.
A brutal year and a tale of two Israels: the one that is feared and the one that is fearful | Jonathan Freedland
There is a yawning gap between how the world sees Israel and how Israelis see themselves. If only each could see through the other’s eyes, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

Believe what you fucking want mate.
And quite happy to let Russia masacre Ukrainian civilians too.
Indeed, but you can't hit all of the bullets.
But you can ignore the ones that are going to miss by 25+ metres.
I'm not sure what you mean? Any missile defence system can only cope with so many targets (missiles) at once. If you don't have missiles that are smart or fast enough to pierce the defence then you just overwhelm it with numbers - this seems to be what Iran did.
You don't need to hit the ones that are going to miss by much.

If you don't have missiles that are smart or fast enough to pierce the defence then you just overwhelm it with numbers - this seems to be what Iran did. If for example the defensive capability can deal with 90 missiles and you need 10 to get through then you fire 100.
Isn't he supplying Ukraine weopens to stop Russia invading and stealing land. I know how much you put into your post in the Ukraine thread about the Russians invading, Killing folk and land Grabbing.
The Russia/ Ukraine thread is bonkers. The decreasing number of brainwashed propagandists in there will either need mental help or will vanish like itk's in the messi thread!
I think anyone who is not an armchair Ukrainian general or propagandist has long since left the thread. Like yourself I've thought a messy stalemate has been the inevitable outcome for ages.
I guess you support Russia.
