The IDF is a genocide masquerading as a professional military, fuck this.

Well let’s not forget the two big brothers guaranteeing that genocide. I want the USA to answer for enabling and encouraging genocide.

I want Europe and especially Germany to answer as well.

The UK just banned Hasan Piker for daring to speak about the Palestinian Genocide, I expect far more from all powers involved, this genocide is a product of far more than the US though the US is at the center of complicity.

So, what is in this for the US?

They’re losing their Arab state alliances, they’re locked in a war that Israel has now publicly stated they won’t allow the US end, they’ve expended their missile defences to critically low levels, they’ve allowed Chinese AA technology to verify it can shoot down the new F35, and they’re pushing away all their core allies.

I’m lost. What’s the benefit here?

The benefit is that the politicians get richer.

Oh wait did you mean what's in it for the regular everyday people? Nothing, as always.

Probably has something to do with a majority of congressmembers not wanting to lose their AIPAC funding or have their pee tapes released...

The feudalist tech lords want the US carved up into city states, they will pay to legislate global instability that sews discord at home, its win win for them, that’s all that’s at play.

With neither primary political party to stop it. We are cooked
