I just love Americans suddenly moralizing to everyone about war lol
Americans will murder half a country, move on to the next one without so much as an apology, then have the gal to tell the rest of the world what’s unjust and what war we should be outraged about
I love how non-Americans trash our MIC until some big bad shows up like Russia or China. When it’s their countrymen, fathers, brothers, sons and daughters who will be fighting bleeding and dying suddenly we become pretty popular…
Lol pls save us daddy white man
No problem, been doing it since we introduced the world to indoor plumbing, penicillin, electricity and space travel.
My Aztec ancestors had indoor plumbing when yours were throwing piss on the streets lol
Shame they never leveled up the tech tree farther than that. It only took a handful of drunk conquistadors to wipe out the Aztec empire.
It’s called History. Give it a try. Having a crazy amount of weapons did and didn’t help you before, so it won’t always give you the edge. History, though, always helps. By the way, this country is still called Mexico, which is a Nahuatl name, Nahuatl is also called “Mexicano”, which was the language most people talked before the “drunk conquistadores” came to this land. Maybe we Mexicans did leveled up the tech after all, it just looks like that for a childish country mentality.
I mean your tequila, la cocaína and siesta tech is pretty dope.
A lot of the commenters seem like they would have denounced the french resistance as being terrorists.
I don’t think people really understand why “terrorism” and guerilla tactics happen - they come about when there’s massive power imbalances.
No government is perfect, leadership and political factionalism gets particularly bad during war, as do the various inhumanities and war crimes. Usually in the hands of the greater power dehumanization is involved in the desire to exterminate, in the lesser power a seething revenge and fearless demand for the right to life to the point of wanting to exterminate the enemy totally.
It is very much true that “one man’s freedom fighter is another’s terrorist”…
…but in the end we have humans killing humans, and that’s the real problem. A problem which is currently serving the US military industrial complex which Israel is contractualy obliged to preference, and much of the US funding for Israel is spent back into that industry.
The war pigs get fat on human blood, and they don’t really care whose it is, as long as there’s a lot of it. Meanwhile Israel can be seen as aligning with US geopolitical interests, seeking the destabilization of Russias allies and perhaps even annexing oil resources. This is modern rationale for mass killings and war.
I just don’t wanna hear it from you Westerners. You guys murdered half my people and suddenly you play the moral paragons
The French Revolution? The system where everyone even slightly suspected of not being loyal to the resistance was executed summarily for spectacle, up to and including its own leader? That’s the thing you’re going to put your name on and say “if people really cared about freedom, they’d support this”?
Can somebody please remind me why I still use Lemmy?
Think you’re confusing the French Revolution (violent uprising of the French against their aristocratic rulers during the Enlightenment) with the French Resistance (Underground movement during WW2 that resisted Nazi occupation)
Without the 7 of october, this comics would be right. But after that, adding a Hamas fighter with a Kalashnikov hiding behind the Palestinian civilian would be more accurate.
The horrors Hammas did that day was cruel and inhuman, and so does the Israeli responce since then. In such a situations, it is difficult to chose a side.
The hamas is not a government.
It is easy to pick a side.
Not anymore, after being mostly whipped out by the Israeli military.
Nor the Israeli government, or the Iran aligned armed groups (Hamas, Hezbollah) are worth of being supported, the only worthy side is those who wish for peaceful and respectful cohabitation.
the only worthy side is those who wish for peaceful and respectful cohabitation.
So you support Hamas?
If you’d take a look at Hamas ideology, I’d call that far from peaceful and respectful.
Hamas supports a peaceful resolution and two state solution. They had a very nice peaceful march in 2019. Similar to the west bank. Even Hamas recent statements are very reasonable and try to reach a peaceful resolution.
Say ,which party is the violent one which tries to expand their Lebensraum and refuses all attempts at peace again? I recall there being an order for a party to directly distantle all their illegal colonies in the West Bank.
