“Critical support” in 3… 2… 1…

    Turkiye

    Turkey has been perpetrating the exact same crimes Israel is perpetrating in northern Syria - not to mention the fact that Turkey will happily do the same thing to Kurdish people Israel is doing to Palestinians. You think Palestinians and Yemenis should wait on Turkey’s “help”?

    Egypt.

    Egypt has been taking US bribe money to not threaten Israel for decades now. How did you think Egyptians ended up with another US-approved military dictator less than a year after Egyptians forced the previous US-approved military dictator out of office during the Arab Spring? You really think Palestinians and Yemenis should wait on Egypt’s “help”?

    South Africa.

    Don’t even go there. The South African government cares about as much for Palestinians as they care about South Africans - ie, not a lot. Their actions at the ICJ was designed to hurt and punish the US for it’s attempts at interfering in local South African politics, not help Palestinians. These very same ANC politicians who are now pretending to care so much for Palestinians sure didn’t mind sharing in the spoils when South Africa’s armaments industry was selling arms to US allies in the middle-east - which includes Saudi Arabia and Israel.

    I won’t recommend Palestinians and Yemenis wait for real help from this part of the world.

    Ireland. Spain. Belgium.

    If you think that this qualifies as “lifting a finger” you probably also believe “thoughts & prayers” will (somehow) stop the alt-right’s child terrorists from shooting up schools and places of worship in your back yard.

    Politicians yapping from podiums doesn’t stop genocidal colonialism. None of them has helped Palestinians make big, smoking holes in IDF tanks. None of them has helped Yemenis send Saudi Arabia’s US-trained death squads back to Riyadh in bodybags.

    But do you know who has? Iran - funny that you didn’t mention them.

        Sooo… you want Palestinians to simply submit to genocide while you pearl-clutch, eh liberal?

        The way it looks is the way it is.

            So after the Palestinians, who do you believe should submit to genocide next to satisfy your pearl-clutching, liberal?

            The Kurds, maybe?

              “Pearl clutching is when you say Anti-Imperialist Forces™ murdering LGBT people is bad”

                You don’t want to say, eh, liberal? Or is it maybe that you just can’t decide without the media telling you which group of brown people must be sacrificed for your privilege?

                  Hilarious, considering you’re advocating the sacrifice of countless minorities not even for some ill-defined ‘privilege’, but just so you can feel smug. But hey, I’m used to us minorities not meaning jack to your type. :)

                    The only one endorsing “sacrificing” people here are you, liberal. You are no ally to anyone except the status quo you are so desperate to protect - as all liberals are.
