    Does no one remember the 1 million innocent Iraqis we killed based on a lie?

    I would argue that is the most recent rock bottom we have come to since world war II.

    We bombed people in their homes relentlessly. They were not going after military targets, it was an indiscriminate slaughter of mostly innocent people. Hundreds of thousands of children.

    We have committed genocide purely for profit and power, very recently. Remember that when our government tries to defend Israel’s actions. They are following our playbook.

    There have been leaked conversations from Israeli officials stating that the war between them and Hamas helps them maintain power over Israeli citizens. They are creating more terrorists on purpose to leverage control over their people. What else happens when your family gets eradicated in a bombing? You go after those that are responsible, and joining Hamas is the easiest route to exact your revenge on those who killed your family.

      That study was pulled for being ridiculous. The Iraq Body Count Project estimates 7300 civilian deaths over a far larger operations area, with far more forces involved, March 21 to May 1.
