    The US is already used to losing children in schools to gun violence. It’s a natural part of life apparently.

    I hope the death toll not only equalizes but skews in favor of the oppressed. For every age bracket.

    It’s something Louis Rossman and me share: hold them to the standards they hold you.

    I’m not even desensitized, it’s all horrible sure. But a few less won’t hurt.

      So nice to See that people See one indisputable evil, criticise it and then wishing it upon others.

      Spoke to an israeli the other Week, he was Here for a conference. Told us about how his family gets daily alarms to take shelter with his family.

      He was not cheering for the genocide in Gaza. He was not particulary keen on netanyahu - quite the opposite.

      There are good people in Israel and there are bad people in Israel. Let the bad ones get to court, let them be sentenced. Let them be a warning for the assholes that come after, that if you show such ‘hospitality’ you will be punished.

        You know how Israel claims they are forced to kill civilians because Hamas is using them as human shields?

        Your buddy is being used as a human shield by Israel.

        I am sure he is uncomfortable.

        Be honest. You mean that he simply didn’t mention the genocide at all because no one dared touch the subject beyond surface level uncontroversial chit chat.

        Fortunately there exists polling data from Israel on the subject of Gaza and Palestinians so we don’t have to rely on anecdotes like yours to gauge which way the wind blows in that country.

        Told us about how his family gets daily alarms to take shelter with his family.

        Oh the horror!

        I’m not in the therapy, psychology, or rehabilitation spaces, so I don’t even know how you’d deprogram all those kids who are mentally fucked right now, from Zionist indoctrination. You can’t just break up Israel because then you’d have a bunch of racist sleeper agents with a grudge against the world.

        And that’s just writing off the adults as a lost cause

      I’d like to think that there are Israelis who are horrified at the genocide that their country continues to commit. But then I realize, it’s an intensely propagandized voluntary ethnostate where dissent is effectively criminalized, and I worry that the world doesn’t have the organizational capacity or commitment to re-educate them all once their government is brought to heel.

      It’s gonna be like reconstruction in the US, or Germany post-WWII. They’ll spread all over the globe and continue to propagandize their children’s children, terrorizing muslims everywhere.

        .It’s an imperial colony, no different than the kind of European Settler states that were established in the New World when it was first found. There’s not much we can do other to dismantle it and tell them up front that it was not funny to begin with.

        From it’s founding, the state was made with violence of a significant calibre and was targeted

    They dont need to pray, they can just move out of stolen territory and live in peace. Its like being a Russian soldier on Ukranian land praying that the bombing stops. Walk your ass back to your own land and stop murdering the locals, then you’ll be fine.

    I can’t even look at pictures without needing weeks recovery after. I can barely read the news of what those monsters do every day. Of course people like that would try to use their own children for propaganda.

      Iran, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Turkey all need to stand up to their enemy and show them their children won’t be slaughtered in the name of imperialism.

        Alternatively, US and some certain countries in Europe can simply not send military donations to Israel, and stop the serial genocides that way.
