It is one thing to help an ally who is attacked.

It is quite another to enable a country that keeps stoking a wider war, despite our repeated requests for them to de-escalate.

I realize that Israel was attacked, viciously. But that was a year ago. It has little to do with all of the innocents killed in Gaza since then. And the current widening of this war in the Middle East.

I do not support US service members being put at risk due to Israel's aggression. Nor do I want my tax dollars used to reward their total refusal to cooperate with the US in this effort.

Should we send our soldiers to fight for the other side? The upstanding gov of Lebanon and Iran? Would that be better for you? Clearly, nobody from those countries has ever attacked anyone. Definitely, they did not attack the U.S. or Israel.

Why is the US in Lebanon?

Look at a world map pre-1948. Yes, there was a Palestine.

You conveniently forgot Israel bombed down to the ground Iran’s embassy in Syria in April. That was a direct attack on Iran.


You mean when Israel targeted IRGC commanders that were meeting with Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists to help them with their attacks on Israeli forces in Gaza?

Very different than launching 200 ballistic missiles indiscriminately at Israel.

Oh sweet summer child.

It was British Mandatory Palestine.

There has never been a sovereign state of Palestine.

The Jews are the only group other than imperial forces that have had a sovereign state on that land.

Why isn't it widely acknowledged that Iran is funding terrorist attacks on Lebanon and Palestinian attacks on Israel? It's now completely obvious that Iran should not be involved in any actions against Israel unless Israel strikes them first. They are, in fact, the terrorists. If Iran wasn’t directly involved, they wouldn’t have taken such personal offense to the Pager attack on Israel. Their retaliation with the 180-missile strike on October 1, 2024, clearly demonstrates their active participation in the conflict, not just as supporters, but as direct aggressors.

Because people have taken Israel’s excessively aggressive response to 10/7 as meaning Israel is forever and always the aggressor and anyone attacking Israel is justified.

Just because Palestinians were ruled under British colonialism doesn’t mean they didn’t exist. What a ridiculous argument.

Even I forgot about this one! Maybe it would be easier to keep a list of countries Israel has not attacked?

Thats old news, this attack was from the pager. You can decide to attack almost a year later. They must be really bad with timing.

So under your theory of who exist as a nation and people, that means that India, Ghana, Nigeria, Jamaica, and any other country formerly under the British Imperial Empire did not exist. Good Lord, SMDH.

Maybe its time to bring back the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Where?

Before 1948, it was part of the British Mandate.

Before 1918, it was part of the Ottoman Empire.

Palestinians rejected an independent Palestine in both 1948 and 1993.

There has never been a country called Palestine in the history of planet Earth.

I didn’t say they didn’t exist.

I said there wasn’t a state.

Can you read?! We’re talking about a SOVEREIGN STATE.

Not the people themselves.
