Key Democrats allow US sale of F-15 jets to Israel in $18 billion deal
  • On a massive scale ongoingly for thousands of years? Yes. Let's bring to light the many attempts at colonizing the Middle East by western powers, ie the crusades or Mandatory Palestine. These attempts were all money and land inspired and respectively very short and unsuccessful. There is no doubt in my mind that Western colonialism has wreaked havoc in the middle East for far too long. But to land those motivations on Jews and Palestinians (those who by birthright the land belongs to) doesn't sit right with me. Let's settle on the fact that Western intervention has been the real catalyst for power struggles there, while the violent puppets that play out the wars on the world's stage are only being made into scapegoats in order to justify the greed and power grabs of outside interests.

  • Would you like to look into what the minority group and it's situation was like in Palestine before this colonization happened? How the human rights were for this minority group? It was the exact same except the other way. Still keep on about how it's all different now.

    I will restate my point that if your taking a side in this that isn't the humanitarian one. You're on the wrong side of history. And back to my original sentiment that calling this an issue of colonization is not getting this argument anywhere.

  • And yet modern colonialism isn't the key topic that needs to be mediated between these two parties. This fued goes 5000 years back to when these two cultural groups shared this exact same land. That's the myopic part of these arguments. Calling them colonists isn't going to settle an ancient blood feud. Bonus points if you recognize that both groups are Semetic and both have committed anti-Semitic crimes.

  • Did you stalk my comment history too? You would see I'm 100% for the Palestinian people and against this genocide. My point being, if you're gonna run to a side in this you just picked wrong.

    Edit: Imperialism is the enemy here not colonialism, which was stopped being used in the 1940's

  • Who you were responding to mentioned Hamas and you immediately equated that with the Palestinian people. You really can't defend Hamas and Russia in this when this is just a recurrence of the power plays that have historically shaped our current system. There are very few on the "right" side of this.

  • Trump world reportedly flirts with a return to mandatory military service.
  • I think you're dead on with your interpretation, and I would like to further the commentary towards the enormous class disparity they are urging everyone towards. ie, only somehow including public schools for this. They test these buttons all the freaking time. And I would say that part of the test is about U.S.'s willingness to move towards an aggressive stance on the world stage. They suck and I hope their demoralizing greed is exposed for all.

  • "Theory" of Evolution (SMBC)
  • I think it's because a proper theory needs a postulation of the cause of the phenomenon. We don't have a single source on the cause of gravity or physical mechanism of evolution.
