Israel’s bombing of the Qatari capital Doha on Tuesday marked the sixth country the powerful U.S. ally attacked so far this year.
U.S. and Israeli officials told CNN and other outlets on Tuesday that Israel — which the U.S. arms to the tune of billions of dollars each year — gave President Donald Trump’s administration advance warning before carrying out the strike. The attack drew ire from progressive members of Congress, who told The Intercept that the U.S. must stop arming Israel as it accelerates attacks around the globe.
“In the past two years, Israel has bombed nation after nation with no repurcussions—all while conducting a genocide and manufacturing a famine in Gaza using U.S. taxpayer dollars,” said Rep. Summer Lee, D-Penn. “There must be accountability for Israel’s unchecked power and destabilization of the region. The United States must implement an arms embargo immediately.”
Israel has carried out tens of thousands of attacks in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Yemen, and now Qatar since the October 7 Hamas attacks, according to data from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project. In the last three days, Israel bombed three residential buildings in Gaza City and dropped leaflets ordering residents to evacuate.
Would you support the massacre of the Israeli government? Or does your “I won’t be happy until they all die!” bloodlust only extend to Palestinians? (Which certainly seems to be case, given your phrasing: Israels Holocaust is merely “outrageous”, where as the resistance response - which was not “planned and deliberate slaughter of civilians” and mostly targeted military targets, despite your lies - is “heinous” and apparently personally prevents you from being happy until enough Palestinians are massacred in retaliation).
So once again, you fully support Israel committing horrific war crimes against the West’s enemies. Would you be as jubilent if Hamas or FSB was able to massacre the EU parliament? Or are you a raging hypocrite?
No, I think Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza is more heinous and more outrageous than the Oct 7 attack. If Netanyahu mysteriously fell out of a window, I might be a little outraged and worried by the implications, but I don’t think I’d be unhappy he’s dead.
In all honesty, blood is not my first choice, nor my second or third. I would much prefer bloodless peace from now on, but reality has taken us way way way down the list of my preferences.
So you “can’t be happy” until the entire government of Gaza is massacred, but the most you can muster for Israel is that if Netanyahyu specifically were to die, you “don’t think you’d be unhappy”
Also, you dodged the question, you cowardly Nazi fuck: Would you support the massacre of the Israeli government? Or does your “I won’t be happy until they all die!” bloodlust only extend to Palestinians? Because the answer you did give sure fucking adds further evidence to the latter.
Oooooooohhhh ok. So when it comes to Gaza you “can’t be happy until they’re all dead”, but when the boot is on the other foot, suddenly you’re handringing about how terrible violence is.
Also, you dodged the other question, you doubly cowardly Nazi fuck: Would you be as jubilent if Hamas or FSB was able to massacre the EU parliament? Or are you a raging hypocrite?
Seriously, fuck off, liberal zionists are even more loathsome than the mask off ones, because they believe the same things but insist on being dishonest and mealymouthed about it.
I think I’d be glad to see Smotrich and some others go too. However there are plenty of people in the Israeli government who are against this war and pro two-state solution, which I believe is the only humane goal in this conflict. This, I think might be the crux of why you see me as Zionist. There are other Palestinian approaches to Palestinian Nationalism and anti-Zionism that I support instead of Hamas, such as modern Fatah’s.
I think Palestinian armed resistance is legitimate and I think the disproportionate power matters in how Palestinians can hit back. I think Hamas’ attack on IDF targets on Oct 7 were legitimate. However, I will not condone their attack on villages and the music festival, which were not military targets, and were clearly meant to sow terror and to take civilian hostages–even as leverage to exchange for the Palestinians civilians unjustly and illegally imprisoned by Israel.
Hamas’s mandate and long term goal has always been the pursuit of Islamic sovereignty over all of mandatory Palestine, which is not an ideology I support. Just as the Israeli government is not a monolith, I don’t assume Hamas is one either. But current leaders like Izz al-Din al-Haddad certainly are malicious and culpable, just as leaders in Likud and the IDF are. I will not be berated into subscribing to Hamas as the only legitimate form of anti-Zionism.
Ok, so your “I won’t be happy until they all die!” bloodlust does indeed only extend to Palestinians, because you’re a hypocritical zionist fuck.
Hamas’s position is literally pro-two state, but you’re still eager for their slaughter. Meanwhile all but a few outliers in the Isreali government are actively and belligerently opposed to the two state solution, but you’re still willing to lie that they are to defend them. Once again, It’s fucking obvious that your a committed Zionist trying to pretend to be a moderate.
Then you wouldn’t hold such a blatantly hypocritical double standard towards it.
Except when you’re saying you “can’t be happy until they’re all dead!”.
And yet you’re only calling for the wholesale slaughter of the former, while making excuses for the latter.
Fuck off, it is extremely obvious that you are being insincere and trying to tack to the most pro-zionist position you can get away with here.
Oh, and once again, you dodged the question: Would you be as jubilent if Hamas or FSB was able to massacre the EU parliament? Or are you a raging hypocrite?
