So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran, and all the US military over there are sacrificing their lives for no (useful) reason. I don’t get why the right-wingers aren’t more incensed over this crap.
It’s a death cult.
It’s the mental illness epidemic of fascism
Once someone accepts hatred into their heart, they’re easy to control, and most of these people have had 20 years of Islamophobia mainlined 24/7.
They don’t see humans anymore because their brain shuts off at “Muslim”.
And it’s the exact same playbook used by every fascist. Give them someone to hate, and they’ll let you do basically anything as long as you actively hurt the people you told them to hate.
Why not both? Is there even a difference?
because christian fascism
this guy Chris Hedges
Definitely one of my heros
Cult + they will never be informed of this on fox and/or be told this is a great thing for national security
So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran
No, duh! They already won in Iran. Haven’t you heard Dear Leader? Iran’s utterly destroyed and the Strait is open! If you have high gas prices is because that damned Zelensky is bombing poor Russia’s oil infrastructure!
and also cutting oil demand by using solar panels is trans for some reason
winning in Iran,
lol. Even if USA “wins”, the planet loses as usual. But realistically there’s no end to this imperial terror attack. It’s been happening for centuries.
Your Medicaid and SNAP benefits hard at work!
I’m sending my health care! Hopefully I can die quickly and quietly to push that line just a bit higher for corporate overlords. Hail corporate!
That’s a lot of food stamps to cut so bibi the nazi can keep his genocide running.
Food stamps for the needy? Bad!
Bomb stamps for a genocidal regime? Good?
If welfare queens exist, then Israel is the ultimate welfare queen. Just sucking up money and never becoming a productive member of the world.
I’d argue they’re welfare fraudsters rather than welfare queens. They’ve got tons of money, most of the tech industry is connected to Israeli engineering. They’re just also constantly getting even more money so they don’t need to spend as much of their own money. Always best to waste someone else’s money.
I’d argue they’re welfare fraudsters rather than welfare queens.
“Welfare fraudster” is exactly what “welfare queen” means, and is why the term is so offensive.
Ah I always thought welfare queen just meant lazy and living off it, rather than rich and claiming it.
It’s not even money they are cutting from social programs, it’s all borrowed. The ruling class are going for broke, we will be at 50 trillion debt by 2028 easy. I bet even more, all they need is a national emergency.
It’s time for the Final Solution. Then Trump and Kushner can finally develop the Jewish Dubai out of the ruins. That’s what he’s getting in exchange for full collaboration.
You pay for their bombs. The money they save allows them to have socialized healthcare.
You bust your ass to keep your family with healthcare … and your government helps another country provide THEIR citizens healthcare.
Let that shit sink in.
Yep. This is the argument to make to Republicans. We pay for socialized healthcare for Israel. Ask them to explain why we can justify that while also making cuts to other international healthcare initiatives and denying healthcare to Americans.
You also pay a crapton of taxes for heathcare in your own country. More than a lot of countries with socialised healthcare, in fact. You just then have to also pay even more for health insurance so you can then need to pay out of pocket for the lifesaving healthcare you’ve already paid twice for.
You’re assuming they’d be capable of rational thought?
The joke is that the US doesn’t help other countries. It does things to look good but genuinely helping a country build up, won’t happen, not unless there’s a military motive or a motive to still have proxy control and liquidating all those those who don’t commit.
I mean i think the money going to bombs is the worst part, i don’t feel too bad about paying for someone else’s healthcare
I can’t imagine how it must feel to be a Palestinian-American refugee in the US.
They’re literally funding the genocide of their own family by paying taxes (as are the rest of US)
This is assuming they’re not already all rounded up by ICE.
No, you still have to pay taxes. Even when you’re actively being tortured in a cage.
Fuck isreal. It should be wiped off the map.
That would mean killing Palestinians, which is what they’re already doing.
I thought we needed those bombs? Didn’t Biden cause the problem by giving away all our precious bombs to Ukraine, not TACO with his Iran war? So I guess the shortage must be over if we have enough to give to Israel. Such a relief to know we are safe again.
Different bombs. These are dumb bombs, US can’t get close enough to Iran to use these. They tried already and lost aircraft. So they have to use guided bombs and missiles.
Israels genocide is uncontested, so they have no issues dropping dumb bombs.
It was my understanding most of it was WWII surplus.
The WWII surplus basically doesn’t exist outside museums. The vast majority would have been used (especially in training) or updated. Even just chemical instability and environmental degradation would have made anything too dangerous to really leave in an arsenal.
Maybe it was old surplus, but not WWII. I heard that on a YouTube channel called Luke Beasley.
WWII surplus would have been used in Korea or the Vietnam war I would assume
to be fair, Biden also gave lots of bombs to Israel
Yes but he failed to drop them on Iran.
I thought they were running out of bombs for their own “war”?
You don’t need guidance systems when you’re dropping munitions indiscriminately on women and children.
TBF when the Americans use guided munitions, they tend to drop them on an awful lot of innocents.
Including a girls school
“Guided”
These are big-ass bombs used to blow up schools and hospitals. We have plenty, since that’s what we love doing. What we’re short on is air-defence missiles, like patriots, since we aren’t used to anyone bombing back.
Israel was founded by USA and UK after WW2 for a reason.
Since founding, the USA has always funded their military. Not only did you buy the bombs, tanks, and so on, your parents did too, and your grandparents, and your great grandparents (if you are American, anyway). There’s a reason that every President I know of has flown out to Israel and visited the Prayer Wall and worn the little hat. It’s considered vital to our strategic interests in the area (that’s not my assessment).
… and not only Israel! If memory serves, Saudi Arabia and Egypt have also received a lot of military aid.
… and money! So much money is funneled to ME, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Iraq, and more.
There are few things in life that you can count on, and that’s death, taxes, and US military aid to Israel.
This is one thing that bOtH pArTiEs agree on, there’s no “anti-Israel” voting option.
That’s one thing people don’t get. Folks have been sick of Israel’s shit since I’ve been born. We stopped complaining because it does no good.
Folks yes, corporations no
Israel needs to take care of itself. This shit is ridiculous.
Israel needs to take care of itself. This shit is ridiculous.
What do you think they’re doing with the genocide, etc.? That’s a primary goal of zionism. That’s how zionists “take care” of themselves.
What I mean is we shouldn’t be footing the bill.
The west should take care of israel the same way they took care of nazi germany.
How does a leech take care of itself? Is blood sucking considered taking care of itself?
I would argue that it could be, although I’m not trying to defend blood sucking leeches.
I thought if we didn’t vote Harris this genocide would stop.
I was told if I voted for her we’d be in a war with Iran by now. The person that told me that has since “stopped caring” about politics
I was told the genocide would be good if it was a Dem doing it!
Strawman.
No one said this, ever!
No shit, lmao, it’s called hyperbole.
No, strawman was correct.
No, it wasn’t.
Idk guise. Maybe the DNC is to blame for pushing unpopular candidates to representation. Idk. Something something two parties something constitution…
They’re trying to stop it… with lots of bombs so there’s no one left to kill
They were both not going to do anything about it. Trump is way worse though.
Damn so that’s the problem, I voted Harris!
I thought if
wethey didn’tvotenominate Harris this genocide would stop.FTFY.
wait, are you saying she’s no longer working tirelessly for a ceasefire?
The you’re stupider than we gave you credit for, lol.
Please refrain from Ad Hominem attacks.
It’s hard when it comes to such colossal idiocy.
100% that was sarcasm
I don’t remember Harris promising to not send billions to Israel either
A big problem with democracy is you have to assume people pay attention and are intelligent.
And Trump promised to restore peace in the Middle East.
She also said she wouldn’t do anything differently than Biden. Many times.
Still would prefer that to what we have now.
Yes, because when the dems were doing their genocide, life was still comfortable in America, and you’re very selfish.
You’re ALSO assuming that the people who who made that argument were doing so in good faith and ACTUALLY give a fuck about Gaza, and not trolls whose entire MO is to watch the world burn - a proposition I think you’re giving them WAY too much credit with.
Nobody thinks that of 'Muricans
I asked about ending all aids and weapons to israel. Your article do not mention anything about that
I wish Harris was president right now.
Same. It would have exposed people like you. I also hope the dems will wins the midterm and next presidential election to expose how they was never against ending the war of aggression on Iran
I said literally the same thing voting for Biden in 2020.
It did expose them. And yet here they still are, pretending that centrist Dems are in any way different other than the rationales they give for empire.
I don’t know who is paying you, but the war in Iran MIGHT have happened under Harris, but we know it DID happen under Trump, against the VEHEMENT opposition of EVERY SINGLE PERSON who would still be in power if he’d lost, Gaza is still fucked and EVERYBODY else is doing poorly on every measure too now. Fuck talking about the US - worldwide:
The environment is fucked, 50 degree summers are a foregone conclusion now, left-wing parties are being stomped across countries where they used to be either dominant or competitive, mass extinction and the most brutal El Nino in recorded history are about to steamroll the planet unimpeded, money that used to be used to protect the vulnerable in countries that were damaged by imperialism is instead being used to build useless monuments to nothing, government surveillance is on the rise in EVERY country, human rights are collapsing in most…
Even if you’re an ignorant as fuck tankie, even the “socialist countries fighting the imperialist US” are doing demonstrably worse than they used to be, with the possible lone exception of North Korea, so whatever point you think you’re making is laughable.
Not a single word about the real victims of the war of aggression, theeht but Iranians civilians. You do not give a damn about the war you just use it for your shitty political game
The war against Iran definitely wouldn’t have happened under her. This is entirely about Trump being easily fooled by Nethanyahu and him really really wanting to be a wartime president. It is a very personal war and also why it is extra stupid.
Even Bush jr. who started wars left and right was not so stupid as to start one with Iran.
Don’t put words in my mouth
People who are against genocides like the one in Palestine by Israel, the one in Ukraine by Russia and China’s genocide of the Uyghurs?
No anti genocide in Gaza would defend Kamala and act like she would save Palestinians similar to no trump defender are opposing genocide in Gaza
Are you talking about Kamala “my platform is whatever the party tells me it is” Harris? She’s an opportunist asshole who’ll say whatever she thinks will further her political career. This Harris?
Still better than a pedophile rapist who is robbing you blind hut I guess that is just what you’re in to
Could we raise our standards, please?
You can start with not voting for a fraudulent pedophile maybe
I didn’t vote for him.
Then vote against him
I vote for democrats straight down the ballot every single time, including for Harris. I’ve never voted for a republican in my entire life. Voting doesn’t work when there are only two sides and they both agree on the same thing like their full-throated support of genocide. The democratic party strategy of “at least we’re slightly better than hitler” is not a winning strategy.
What candidate did you vote for that wasn’t supporting the genocide in Gaza?

As an outsider, the leader that collapses the US the fastest is the best choice, so good job!
The US isn’t going to collapse. Its immense wealth and power will simply be wielded differently depending on who controls it. And your preference is to hand that power to Trump, a preference held by other enemies of liberal democracies globally.
Lmao, Rome lasted forever too, buddy. And the sun never sets on the British empire!
This is what liberals want.
Bad bot.
Do you think someone licking AIPAC’s ass would not support the genocide or are you identifying yourself as a bad hasbara bot?
I think you mean my-platform-is-whatever-the-party-tells-me-it-is Harris.
You’re welcome.
Rollingstone doing the Lord’s work with this one.
No Medicare or Medicaid, no snap, no climate protection, gas crisis, housing crisis But but… BUT!!! MONEY FOR EXPLODY SHIT AND A MASS BRIBE!!!
trump doesn’t have any money. his government is $40T in debt.
It’s just imaginary numbers. They can print some paper or add some numbers on a computer if the extremely privileged are at all threatened.
deleted by creator
You realize that that debt is owned by rich people including him, right?
He has loads of money, and the taxpayers are giving it to him and his family long after he dies.
I doubt Trump personally holds any significant amount of bonds
Wealth is about resources and assets. You also don’t need bonds to be rich, and you don’t need treasury bonds to own debt.
Wtf would an 80 year old want bonds anyways? Unless they are maturing soon.
He became a billionaire in his presidency.
He isn’t doing this for him. He inherited millions from his father, and he leveraged it (with crime) to turn it into billions for his children.
Make a list of all the US addresses; When israel uses the bombs, some people should get a letter thanking them for buying the bomb that was just dropped on X location. Would be good for folks to know where their taxes are going
Should include photos of the children and pregnant women and journalist killed.
You can bet Israel has their photos
