I used to think that Israel worried that if they went too far even the United States would eventually denounce them and that this fear was the only reason we have yet to see Nazi style death camps with gas chambers and crematoriums. But now i see that Israel was irrational in thinking there was ever a red line of atrocities they needed to be afraid of overstepping. Even if they did do an open, documented and admitted genocide Joe Biden would still call on both sides to negotiate.

the reality is that the moral and legal institutions around war crimes - indeed the concept of war crime itself - is a propagandist's illusion erected by whichever reigning power has dominance within their own particular realm of influence, and if there was no better evidence of that prior then the moment we are in living is nothing short of damning proof. unapproachable and unthinkable acts of violence for any given government become quite palatable so long they further its material and imperial interests

don't think that's why some people are mad at mcmagic, however

Israel and the IDF are child-murdering, war crime committing, white phosphorus using rapist shitheads who perpetuate apartheid colonialism and ethnic cleansing. They are terrorists, and Hamas is defending Palestine. The IDF started this latest round of conflicts by shooting Palestinians praying during Ramadan of all times at Al-Aqsa with rubber bullets and tear gas. Anybody, and I mean ANYBODY who defends Israel, is a piece of sub-human trash. Doubly so for anybody who gives Israel money, as they are complicit in their war crimes.

In short: gently caress you, you disingenuous, child murdering-loving piece of trash. gently caress Israel, gently caress the IDF, and gently caress anybody who supports them.

Seriously what the gently caress..... I'm not defending or supporting israel. Why is everyone such a dick for no reason?

im pretty sure any consequences that actually come to israel will come in the form of pissing off muslims and arabs in general with their blatant and open war crimes, which is probably starting now that there's massive streams of pissed off people breaking down the fences from both lebanon and jordan

I truly, and honestly despise with the bottom of my cold and blackened heart, the excuse Israel defenders give when confronted with the IDFs war crimes.

“Why did Hamas do $x around civilians when they knew Israel would retaliate?”

LIKE ISRAEL HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO BOMB INNOCENT CIVILIANS, WOMEN, AND CHILDREN?

So I guess I never looked into it, but what is the US’ strategic goal in such unconditional support for Israel? Just so we can have a friendly place to park military bases? So stir up the Muslims and give them a target that isn’t US forces? Or we just felt bad for opposing the Nazis and wanted another genocidal regime to support to help make up for it?

i think the most important thing is economic as there is a lot of interlinking between the U.S. and israeli economies in terms of tech, biotech, pharma and the military-industrial complex.
