    Israel is just bombing everybody in their neighborhood now, aren’t they?

    So what will happen if the international court finds them guilty of genocide, and their allies stop sending weapons and munitions? They’ll be surrounded by very angry nations who will want them to disappear after what they did.

      Israel has been bombing Iranian targets outside of Iran for a while though. It’s largely the reason they try to keep positive relations with Russia - to be able to continue bombing Russia aligned nations: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/23/us/politics/pegasus-israel-ukraine-russia.html

      It’s “just” a continuation of the Israel-Iran proxy war which has been going on for some time. I don’t think this is a meaningful, if any escalation.

      After Ilearned that Netanyahu publicly rejected a pathway towards Palestinian statehood I sent am email to my representatives to cut foreign aid to Israel. I recommend others do the same. I’m so fucking sick of it.

      They are not our allies, they are just a convenient chihuahua dog that occasionally barks at the right people so we give them money for it.

        Israel spends more money bipartsianaly bribing congress yearly than russia has ever. If you vote for either D or R, you are voting for that to continue.

          Yeah true, but most people that read my comment can send an email literally right now. It takes no effort. And a lot of them do read it.

      those are some big assumptions. You may as well ask what would happen if the US declares Israel a terrorist state and then sends 1000 cruise missiles to assassinate all the Kismet leaders+their families. It would stop the genocide, but it also will never happen.
