It depends how you use the word, i see it as people being forced to do something they don't want to do, you don't say "I blackmailed you into buying a better product", in same way i don't say "Trump was blackmailed to be corrupt and make a fortune out of market manipulation"

"Trade" these headlines are so infuriating, it's not a trade of blows if it's on Lebanon, that's not a "no man's land" where both sides are victims, that's an occupied country where Israel is an invader

Spot on!

Booo fucking hooo

All of the island's economic problems come from one specific part of the outside, i hope people can fight back before they add a solar panel tax or something, the west has no good in mind for Cuba

The fast movement and lack of sight is what's scary about them, snakes tarantulas will move away from you and do it slowly, cockroach will run in any direction at full speed when startled unless you explicitly startle them with large thud near them, otherwise they might dash full speed towards you

Also social upbringing making them out to be some great threat and fact we're way more common to see them than the other actually dangerous creatures

Why are they waiting for the 2 months in the agreement, it's clear US won't pay the 300 billion nor removing it's war assets in the region and clearer Israel won't be leaving Lebanon, they're letting the US stock up on air for another strangling session when they could of just made them pass out immediately

Empty talk

Nothing gets americans upset like being told you need to resist your state due to corruption, i can't understand why they hate the idea of burning cop cars or breaking and tearing down government buildings so much

There's proof, they gain back rights, the rest of the world benefits greatly, no longer will be looked at in bad light, i don't get why they dislike the idea so much everyone else in the world does it

Based on what?

If anything it's Lebanon Syria and Jordan that'll get a US coup and get labeled as "terrorist organization" and all their civilians will have to hide in caves and tunnels while the US and Israel kill everything in sight

Congrats to the EU for stripping their shackles away

Both sides are just people with interests, i never understood the smart/dumb distinctions, there's just interests, dedication and morals

Fuck you, fuck israel, go fuck yourself

"God is great, god is great... god is great, My house is gone! Gone!"

Couldn't understand the rest

Idealism after the missiles on Tel Aviv

Must mean the levels are pointless, because the US will never stop supporting Israel, that's a law of nature by now and i trust it more than political claims

I'm also African. I used to be fairly biased towards west, as in letting them get away with foreign intervention with just minor scrutiny while being strongly against china russia and islam for their downfalls(misogyny, oppression ect). up until the whole files release and that took me down a rabbit hole of learning about reality of 9/11 the magnitude of bias in mainstream media and finally reading about history of socialism and eventually communism starting from Che Guevara

That alone already made me have severe criticism of US as is but what sent me over the edge is how complacent americans are, if these things happened in any other country the entire economy would be shut down by the people, but they're just trying to avoid talking or bringing up this subject, or saying it's out of their power, then the next moment starting a topic about their latest high end keyboard and travel plans, then switching to the difficulties of living end to end

I do my best to try and be kind i swear i do, but things like this actually drive me insane not cause they happen but because of how often it does. I kid you not i'm completely sold that if anyone will stop the west's imperialism and foreign intervention it's going to be another African American or LGBTQ or some minority as usual, because only suffering can bring about change and i do not see suffering from the lifestyles of the americans i talk with, it's always only on paper

The way i see it is they feel unmotivated to reign their government in due to their lifestyle no longer being at the top of charts or better than europe? How does that fix anything in their situation though, and what do i say living off only 2 meals a day to save money? The only thing that got majority of west sphere to hate genocidal regime wasn't their tax money being spent on it but the raising of gas price? Please someone make me central again i'm so sad now

No i'm not paid off i'm just waiting for the American people to pull their weight in all of this or not silencing and smearing people that are trying to pull in their behalf before i can feel the brotherhood bond with them as i do with soviets(not current russia) and china fighting back against RAM cartel and fossil fuels, please

It's not about being different from history that matters, it's being different from the present, Israel is a genocidal supremacist illegal state, it blockaded Gaza completely after it got threatened to stop killing and invading in other countries

Israelis are dancing in gyms to music the lyrics of "We will burn down your towns", they're threatening to rape people in their pro-occupation parades, the state is humiliating and torturing their victims and their victims's saviors

Peace and love after missiles to Tel Aviv, if Israelis are not fleeing to Gaza and Lebanon there's not going to be love or peace, because they don't want love or peace

Remember that they have nukes? Complacency, support, diplomacy and pressure only make them continue the genocide?

Missiles to Tel Aviv before more millions get displaced or die

Killing is bad, but if killers refuse all compromises guess we'll they'll just have to dodge the weapons ✨
