    So over my new years break Israel killed the military leader of Hamas in the West Bank who was one of the operational planners of Oct 7th and was a key pipeline to Iran, and it looks like Islamic militants are striking at Iran at the shrine over the slain leader of the Quds force.

    Vast amounts of the Hamas tunnnel networks and the infrastructure they used to support them have been seized and destroyed, as well as several significant command headquarters. The vast swathes of Israeli dead that Hamas promised in tunnel fighting simply haven't materialized.

    The IDF is pulling troops out of Gaza and getting ready to redeploy them.

    The US sank some dinghies that the Houthis sent out to harass shipping.

    And withdrew a carrier task force from the Med as no wider war has materialized.

    Honestly, things couldn't be going better. :D

    And now you're back to conveniently not caring about context again.

    1. Why was America so mad at this militia leader in the first place? :chris:

    2. Why was this militia leader on the grounds of the Iraqi interior ministry? :chris:

    ISIS has claimed responsibility, two of its operatives detonated explosive belts

    So quick to blame the Jews when you forgot the one truth of the Middle East - the one thing that hates Muslims the most are other Muslims

    You don't get to decide whether I care about context or not. I'm under no obligation to include your preferred talking points in my posts.

    That he had links to Iran, and apparently was involved in the ongoing low-level conflict between them and the US forces in Iraq changes nothing about the accuracy of the conclusion drawn by the Iraqi government. The US has no right to launch such attacks.

    Israel are not "the Jews". Jews generally are not responsible for what Israel does and it is an anti-Semitic slur to suggest that they are.

    Further, I did not blame Israel. I said we were waiting to find out if this was their work. It's right there in black and white if you could read.

    You don't get to decide what I get to decide, you fucking war criminal. :nono:
    And I'm under no obligation to take you seriously when you insist on ignoring context to condemn one act of violence while invoking context to justify (but you're not defending it, just making countless excuses for it) different acts of violence against groups you don't like.
    What a cutesy euphemism for over 100 attacks on US military bases and assets in Iraq.
    Generally speaking, I'm not a fan of vigilante justice in situations where the authorities are actually dealing with criminals consistently and effectively. My city doesn't need a Batman beating up bank robbers so long as the local police are responding to bank robberies and putting those robbers in jail more often than not.

    That this fucker was apparently walking around the grounds of the Iraqi interior ministry without handcuffs suggests to me that the Iraqi authorities were not dealing with this criminal effectively, so I'm fine with an American missile stepping up to do a job the Iraqis refused to. :bergman:

    They don't care. Jewish people are just a useful tool to reinforce imperialism and US supremacy, a talking point for these assholes. That's what it's all about: power and influence. How many innocent kids die means jack fuck to these people. They'd have supported the Nazis if the west would have backed them.

    They laugh and they mock because they don't give the slightest fuck about the human cost. It's a game, and they deserve to be ignored, but people love drama just too much.

    "Vigilante justice" is a novel way to describe international terrorism, I suppose. ISIS should use that one too.

    Look, I know terrorism is part of your legally protected cultural heritage or whatever, but here in the real world most people don't get to attack someone over a hundred times without whoever they're attacking finally hitting back. :shrug:


    Hey, didn't I say this quote would be topical? I was right.

    Anyone who laughs at something like this is a true piece of shit. I don't know how people can lose their humanity so easily, or at least put it aside because their pettiness prevents them from seeing the bigger picture.

    The lack of self-awareness to use that argument about US forces in Iraq of all places is just astounding. :lol:

    Relax, Amaris can't even see it since she's got me on ignore. It's a victimless crime.

    But while we're on the subject, it's really not cool that admins can put people in ignore when no one can put them on ignore, especially when they continue to tag the people they have on ignore. How is that not an abuse of power? :shrug:

    I don't think anyone said it wasn't an abuse of power. What's the point of having power if not to wantonly abuse it? That's what I would do.

    I'm not the one supporting the genocide of Palestinian Jews. You, on the other hand, would fit right in with the Nazis.
    Oh, and you must hate the Jewish holocaust survivors who have spoken out against Israel. Terribly anti-semitic they are.

    Like all bigots, you've co-opted real struggle and use it to reinforce your imperialism. You're a piece of shit, and I regret ever knowing you.

    I can't block you, so you can force on me whatever you want to say, but suffice to say from my part is that you're a shameful example to your ancestors who died so you could murder more Jewish people under the banner of white supremacy.

    So follow your Israeli Donald Trump into hell and roast with the other wannabe Aryans.

    Clearly the solution here is to make everyone an admin. Or to take every admin's power away. Or resubmit to the rule of @T'Bonz. I'm not sure.

    Neither do you.

    You're just cheerleading for what you perceive to be the fashionable underdog because you like to pretend you're some kind of fringe, anti-establishment rebel. As if there aren't a million basic bitch screechbags in the world to revive THAT tired old tune.

    She was hysterical over Ukraine before this, "kids in cages" before that, and Biden before that. And somehow every time the people that didn't completely agree with everything she said turned out to be Actual Fucking Nazis and the absolute worst people on Earth. Funny how it always works out like that. :bergman:
