While many here don’t seem to care about Palestinian lives….will you care about Lebanese or do you want to make multi generational enemies of that country too?


8,000 Hezbollah rockets launched into Israel.

You want Israel to do nothing.


How many artillery shells, air strikes, and electronic devices did the Israeli use in Lebanon. The Lebanese have a right to defend themselves.


Ok. So here’s what happened:

Hamas attacked on Oct 7.

Hezbollah launched rockets on Oct 8.

Can Israel defend itself?


you are very conveniently leaving out 100 years of history that predates 10/7

The course of action with the least risk of life lost is for Israel to declare a ceasefire in Gaza. Hezbollah has always said they iull stop firing into Israel when there is a ceasefire.


Ah yes. Because before 10/7, Hezbollah was a peace loving bunch of hippies.


No, they are trying through their actions to get Israel to recognize international law and leave occupied territory, too.

Do you have a problem with Israel being required to follow international law?


Wow. An apologist for Hezbollah. Never thought I’d see it.

Hezbollah is an Iran proxy group. They are doing Iran’s bidding and are pursuing Iran’s strategic goal, which is to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.

Hamas is the same thing.


I’m not supportive of any of these groups. I fully condemn them all. But I’m not binary (like you, apparently), so there are degrees of contempt across the board. And unlike you, I don’t give any of them a pass because of the sins of their neighbors, including Israel.

Now that that’s settled, since I dictate what I do and don’t support, not you … let’s get you on the record right now with what you stand for, and we can start with you answering the simple question below (2nd attempt).

Do you have a problem with Israel being required to follow international law?



That's a very weasel answer to anything. And very pathetic. Either/Or. Both sides. Whataboutism.

And you dictate your little whateveresim.

Not the previous poster. But...

Do you have a problem with either the Hezbollah or Hamas charter?

You should read it.

If I were Israeli, I would 100 percent be for the destruction of Hezbollah and Hamas.


Word salad, but I don’t give AF about charters. And apparently you don’t either because you’re unaware that the Hanas charter was revised in the last decade. The only place you’ll find “from the river to the sea” is in the Likud charter, the founding documents forged by the leader of Israel’s current government.

Again, I condemn Israel, Hamas and all terror groups. Zero support.

But you won’t condemn Israel, which makes you part of the problem that the rest of the world will have to address.


You don’t give AF about charters but you take Hamas at its word for its so called “revised” charter that everyone knows is BS propaganda to trick dumb people like you.


Dumb people like me?

What do you consider fact? You take the word of radical, extremist Zionism as fact, and when Hamas explicitly changes their charter to address your accusations, you move the goalposts and call it BS propaganda.

Can your brilliant mind start to see why most people don’t believe, respect, take seriously, or care for the group of people you’re either part of or that you’re willing to blindly, unconditionally support?


I never said I take radical wings of the Israeli government as fact. I’ve said repeatedly on this thread that I hate Bibi.

I have no desire to continue talking to you if you continue to ignore what I say.


I’m not the person to whom you’re responding, but understand this: I’ve been telling Zionists for a very long time that it would be them and their arrogance and myopia which will destroy Israel. They are unprepared to understand that it is not just Netanyahu. It is Israeli society as a whole that is a problem. It’s always laughable to me when people who think they know things, try to make a distinction between Netanyahu and the rest. There isn’t. With more and more people from the former Soviet Union and Mizrahi lunatics like Gvir taking over, it’s going to get worse and it won’t be at the hands of Palestinians. The United States protecting that country from any/all accountability and funding its depravity for administration after administration, inevitably created a monster and you can’t see it. You’d probably rather believe that everyone is just an antisemite, because it’s much easier than actually delving into the lies told on Israel’s behalf. That’s what people like Jake Tapper and Dana Bash do. They chalk everything up to anti-Semitism and when called out, they don’t have the guts to debate their role in spreading israeli propaganda. And of course they have nothing to say about the despicable congressional hearings on hate where it was actually Arabs and Muslims literally targeted with hate by elected officials, not just some random person at a protest or some tweet being the entire argument regarding antisemitism. Social media is not having it. Read Max Blumenthal responding to Jake Tapper claiming that Dana Bash was a victim of antisemitism at her book signing. Jake Tapper doesn’t have the guts to respond. People see through the lies being told on the Israeli side and the US coddling those lies. And they see through the glaring omissions in media. The moment Israel started jonesing to go into Lebanon, I knew the US being its lapdog, would be willing to continue to destroy itself and go along.

I hope at some point, Americans realize what a disaster it has been to lie on behalf of an occupation, not a democracy.


You’re nasty.


Point to the Jewish children who have been stabbed to death. Point to the Jewish college students shot and paralyzed. Dana Bash went on CNN and lied about Jewish students at UCLA being kept from campus. She lied and made it sound as if Jewish students in particular were the only ones kept off campus. When there was violence on campus, it was known that people were paid by the pro Israel side to specifically show up to start violence, but the media treated it as though it were “both sides.” When I witnessed an antisemitic attack, it was a Zionist Jewish man built pulling a prayer shawl off of a Jewish woman who was protesting for a cease-fire. Sen. John Kennedy and the rest of the Republicans engaged in disgusting racist and bigoted comments towards a witness. Was there any talk of censure for them or is that just reserved for MoC who are American of Palestinian descent and quoting the LIKUD CHARTER?

The fact is that the ADL was allowed an endless platform in media and in Congress to lie to the American people about a so-called 800% increase in anti-Semitic attacks. That was a lie. Jonathan Greenblatt has been allowed to to use anti-Semitism accusations to defend the depravity of Israel. Even people working at the ADL called him out for it.


You’ve already been exposed as a liar on this thread for claiming only Likud said “from the river to the sea” so maybe you should just stop before you spew more lies.


We're at the point now where these geniuses actually think they have a "gotcha!" moment that actually just confirms that Israel is NO BETTER than big bad "designated terrorist" Hamas. Astounding.

They want answers for Palestinians using the terms "from the river to the sea", which they insist involves annihilation of all worldwide Jews ( ), yet crickets about the fact that beloved Israel says AND DOES no less to the Palestinians. Geniuses.

Maybe give a damn update or press conference on why you are sending 3000 US troops to this conflict. What are your goals. What is the plan????????????

Are you asking someone on this forum for this information?



Obviously not, unless you work for Biden/Harris.


The issue is at least explain why you are putting these US soldiers at risk and likely will send even more if this escalates. If I see another image of Biden at the Beach on vacation, it really shows how little he cares.

It would also be good for Harris to speak up on this and show some leadership! But she won’t as she is afraid to do a press conference. We have no leadership right now and Harris is blowing it.

There was no state department press briefing or white house briefing today, except a short audio gaggle on the airplane. I see no press release from the white house. It's ridiculous.

We're talking about 500 people killed, thousands injured in a single day, by an ally using our weapons, and nearly nothing from the white house?

Biden hasn’t been in charge for eight months and Kamala is too busy hiding all her positions from the public in hopes of a promotion.

Yes if you control the politicians in the United States you do not have to worry about the rest of the world. Too bad it is against the law to disinvest from Israel.

Zionists just don’t get it. Do you not understand that younger people do in fact know more than you specifically because they didn’t live in a world with just propagandists in media who pushed things like the Iraq war? They have access to actual history and videos of Israeli depravity long before October. And now you same people are pushing another war, pretending Israel is the victim. And you call younger people the brainwashed ones because they don’t go along with the fairytale about Israel being all sweet unicorns shooting rainbows out of their behinds. A false image of a nation born out of Jewish terrorism. Ridiculous when people mention Hamas or even the PLO, as if the very first terrorist bombings weren’t at the hands of foreign-born Jewish terror groups. That’s how terrorism came to Palestine. But heaven forbid, Americans think Palestinians, Arabs and Muslims aren’t one-dimensional, nefarious caricatures who “just wanna kill them jooz”

Can you imagine the “beheaded babies” crap without social media calling out that lie? Shireen Abu Akleh (an American citizen like Jamal khashoggi) also comes to mind. Can you recall Maddow or Wallace or countless other so-called journalists with “integrity” even uttering her name? No, and no one would know the name jamal khashoggi had Israel killed him, too.

Israel is so self-sufficient and so advanced that it gets more foreign aid (aka American tax money) than any other country on earth. Even the money given to Egypt and Jordan is predicated on treating Israel like it isn’t a violent, needy bully. Despite Israel being what its proponents claim it is, it exists solely based on intimidation, blackmail (Epstein) and protection from the US. No one witnessing the self-immolation by the state dept spox on behalf of Israel, thinks the relationship is based on equality and friendship. To stand up there and embarrass yourself daily with glaring hypocrisy, lies and faux-naïveté about murdered American citizens or confronted with blatant lies by Israel, is not something you can ever be proud of doing.

Iran’s proxy—Hamas—did 10/7. Keep up.


Hamas’s proxy is Netanyahu. Why hasn’t Netanyahu killed Sinwar yet? Israel does not want the Palestinian Authority to take over Gaza. They hated that Ismail Haniyeh was also saying he wanted a Western brokered ceasefire /two state solution too. They want Sinwar alive because he’s their man right now as he is not a moderate Palestinian voice and hates the word negotiation and is undetectable by Americans. I am sure Mossad knows which tunnel he is in but they need him alive to be a boogeyman for the already divided Israeli public and because Netanyahu knows he’ll likely go to jail once the war ends.

Your king and your kingdom is the emperor with no clothes right now


If anyone wants to actually learn about the Hamas-Iran relationship:

“Hamas would not have been able to plan and conduct such an operation without years of Iranian training, Iranian weapons, and hundreds of millions of dollars in Iranian funding.”

https://www.washingtoninstitute.org/policy-analysis/hamas-iran-relationship





I can replace the world Iran with Russia, Turkey, Qatar, Egypt. Hamas is making lots of friends. What can we say? Israel is losing friends

They’re smarter than the PLO that’s for sure but Israel has gotten dumber
