Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

You gotta start adding [SERIOUS] or [Not the Onion] tag to these titles. It is hard to believe they actually published this.

I also love this bit bragging how Europe spends more money on fighting Russia than US

And in the meantime, what happened was, we were able to—and by the way, we spent a lot of money in Ukraine, but Europe has spent more money than the United States has, collectively. Europe has spent more money than the United States has, collectively Europe has spent more money in taking on Russia.

I think that's a talking point of the other duopoly party that the vassals don't pay their fair share to enrich Raytheon.

Why do all American politicians speak like a toddler trying to tell you a story they're making up as they go along?

If the dumb people think they understand they’ve won over a vote ? I’m not sure it’s fucking infuriating after we had someone with prose like Obama.

Biden brain: "If someone else lost more than me, I am reclassifying myself as a winner. This is what peak bullshit looks like."

I bet even the editors are laughing over the transcript:

[Editor’s note: Biden appeared to mean Xi here, not Putin.]

How the fuck can you confuse them? Actually I'm not surprised at this point. Biden must have dementia at this point.

He clearly had dementia before the election. That oatmeal-brained pile of shit was literally picking fights with his constituents on camera, sniffing hair and being incoherent. His campaign managers kept him hidden most of the time for a reason. Reagan 2.0.

Hasn't he been sniffing hair and molesting kids on camera for a long time? All in all, he's never come across as a particularly friendly person either. Though I agree, he definitely has dementia.

How did I get secondhand embarrassment reading this?

Hitler: The allies could stop the bombing of Rotterdam tomorrow if they'd just roll over and surrender. The allies could say (inintelligible) and done period. You may not like it, but this is what peak statesmanship looks like.

Israel has come out and said they have no intention of ending the fighting no matter what, no one buying that this is about the hostages.

They were evil but at least American presidents seemed like statesmen until the 2000s, once Dubya got into power, it was all downhill with exception of Obama.

The Biden Admin seriously just seems like a front for organized crime at this point. Everyone knows Joe's not making any real decisions, he's literally just there so people can think they have a say in democracy.

Obama was smooth, polished, charismatic, intelligent, likeable. But he was no better than any of the other POTUS - he never followed through on his "liberal" promises (such as closing Gunatanamo), and spent Tuesday mornings signing off on who the military/CIA was allowed to drone/murder that week. As well as supporting the on-going US invasions in Iraq & Afghanistan, Obama also initiated new wars in Yemen, Syria and Libya. The MIC would certainly give him its Seal of Approval.

wtf I fully expected to be trolled at the end of the speech or something, this cannot be real 💀
