Israeli-American ties, good or bad? Somewhere in between?

[Pale Rider]

Wouldn't someone who is murdering woman and children be on the dark side? I'm confused.. Who do you think Epstein was BTW??

they blow up an entire apartment building because there was a few bad guys in it , (they claim) thats the justification.

If somebody killed your family and you tracked them down to an apartment building and blew it up and killed 50-60 people, you would be charged with 1st degree murder. Nobody is going to give you pa ss .

That's a faulty analogy. If someone had killed several of my children and were still shooting at the rest of them, from a house where there were other people who knew that the shooters were shooting at my family, and had been warned to get out, but decided to stick around to give the bad guys cover, I wouldn't hesitate to hoot into that house.

That's a faulty analogy

its not a faulty anaogy, its not even an analogy. Isreal did bomb apartment buildings with civilians in them and justified it because bad guys were there, they even bombed a refugee camp because some bad guys were there.

I dont understand why you would defend the war crimes of another nation. its beyond me . its immoral. I wouldnt defend the war crimes of our own soldiers. what kind of men are you? who am I even talking with?

 

[holdover]

and had been warned to get out,

LOL nobody was warned. they are Amalek .

This what the butcher of gaza said to his troops just before the invasion of Gaza.

1 Samuel 15:3​

​

Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy[a] all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”​

''Prominent journalist Tucker Carlson issues a terrifying warning to Washington.

He declares the world will soon discover exactly how many innocent women and children Israel murdered.''.

Tucker Carlson has gone over to the dark side. He is a rabid antisemite. He even claims to have been attacked by a demon. The fact that someone would cite him to support their point tells me all I need to know about that person.

He’s gone off the deep end. He has sided with Russia as well.

"Wouldn't someone who is murdering woman and children be on the dark side? I'm confused.. Who do you think Epstein was BTW??"

You mean Hamas? Yes, they are definitely dark side. Israel doesn't murder anybody. They take more care to avoid civilian casualties than any country ever has. And Israel doesn't attack anyone who doesn't attack them first. Who Epstein may or may not have been is totally irrelevant. And I agree that you are confused.

These scum hide in and among the citizens so of course there will be issues and some civilian casualties. We had them as well so are we any different?

How many German and Japanese civilians do you think we killed in WWII ?

After Oct7th Isreal would be fully justified in hitting Gaza the way we hit Dresden or Tokyo.

If there's an apartment building with 100 residents, and 2 guys are shooting at you from a window, I'd have no problem calling in a JDAM strike through the roof. That's just how war goes.

Also, what makes you think there were *any* civilians in the building ? Because of the rampant perfidity perpetrated by Hamas, you basically have to assume *everyone* is a combatant until proven otherwise.

That is, indeed, an analogy, albeit a faulty one.

except when its a fact and it happened then its not an analogy. Another Israel first winner. keep sending them your money

[Zerex]

The allies firebombed over 50 German cities like Dresden, and killed multi thousands of civilians because there are no civilians in war.

We firebombed Tokyo on March 11, 1945..............killed 100,000.

Hamas must be anhilated, as does half of Iran.

But it is not a fact. I did not track anyone down to an apartment building and blow it up. That is what makes your example an analogy.

 

[spat]

But it is not a fact. I did not track anyone down to an apartment building and blow it up. That is what makes your example an analogy.

The main fundamental flaw in the analogy is that almost *everything* in war would be murder if judged by civilian standards.

The rules of civilian life are just not applicable in war. Calling your boss a son of a bitch isn't even a crime in civilian life. In war it can get you serious prison time.

Killing dozens of people will get you an award in war, in civilian life it makes you a serial killer.

A civilian cop who killed gang members on sight based only on how they dressed would be a monster.

A soldier doing the same with the enemy is just how you fight a war.

 

[Pale Rider]

Whaa? they just launched a surprise attack in sept against Iran , they have bombed syria and lebbanon almost not stop for years .

Do you really want to assert that Israel has not been the victim of attack from Syria, Lebanon or Iran?

 

[Brawny71]

Not only that, but not all those of the Jewish faith have the same goals. There are some ultra-orthodox Jews who hate Christians, just like there are some people who claim to be Christians who protest at the funeral of soldiers who die on duty and spew vile rhetoric at their family. We don't judge Christianity by the actions of that scum just as we shouldn't judge Judaism based on the actions of those radicals.

Agree. We “US” folk generalize and label to much. Also we become experts via Facebook and AI.

Because no media release is ever manipulated…..ever.

If you have a factual account I’d love to see read it. Everything released from that area of the world is facilitated and staged for effect (both side obtw). In the case of most “reports” I would need to be on site at this point and see.

Do you believe all the accounts of Iran reports? And at the same time do you note the lack of reporting of Iranian civilians cut down by Imported Iranian proxies?

Gaza reporting accuracy has been shown to be manipulated and staged by several international independent sources. You just have to search. If your government (Hamas, voted in 2005, zero follow on elections) purposely uses the populace for cover and concealment; yes there is risk involved. That risk is win/win for Hamas as it is protection and a story to be made later with the right facilitation.

lol, which came first the chicken or the egg. there are LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOg running arguments about who did what to who first

This is a an argument that can and will go on forever, Im not an expert in middle eastern history. and Im not going to take part in it , trust me it goes back as far as you want to look . great arguments can be made for either side . Im not going there.

But last September Isreal and the US did launch a surprise attack against Iran during negotiations . so no, you cant

play the victim card with Iran. Israel started that war.

the media is manipulated all the time thats why you never hear of Israels illegal killings . ever notice how one sided the press is when it comes to israel? thats peculiar isnt it? or all of Israel has halos , gods people exempt from being evil .

You must live in a closet , Israel is up on war crimes at the UN. where the hell do you live? Your gonna say the war is total CGI the isralie are

incapable of wrong doing? Its all over the internet for christs sake tens of thousands of civilians have been killed by Israli hands and American weapons and you sick fucks all support it .

PA law prohibited torture or use of force against detainees, but international and local human rights groups reported that torture and abuse remained a problem, and the PA had yet to establish a protocol for preventing torture. The ICHR reported receiving 92 complaints of torture or mistreatment against the PA and 86 complaints against Hamas during the first six months of the year.

Obviously, Im barking up the wrong tree here. i thought this forum was made up of patriotic Americans that cared about our own . Appears I was wrong. I dont want to spend hours and hours and hours verifying reports everyone should have known about if they were even following the conflict to begin with. Its to exhausting. I got shit to do. I dont want to argue with people which contest every comma and period . I would say to do your own due diligence but it seems nobody wants to . so you believe what you want . the world isnt perfect evil exists. and if your to stupid or biased to see it , thats on you . Im outta here
