  • Yes it is. International agreements rely on the signatories "honour" of upholding them. Someone who repeatedly breaks agreements or is inconsistent in their argumentation and reaction to various topics is not considered good to negotiate with. Now if you have an army like the US or produce half of the worlds stuff like China, you can get away with more things for a time, but it will come back around.

  • I can see buying multiple guns in different form factors, because they’re a tool like anything else, and you need the right size tool for the job.

    As you need proper training on each individual gun i find it hard to believe that there is any person who reasonably needs more than 5 or 6 firearms and that includes sports, hunting and self defense

  • That is a bit shortened. We demand Biden to stop supporting this genocide and start upholding international and US law in order to get a vote.

    Saying you will vote for him no matter what just encourages the DNC to do whatever they want. Democrats fear the pro Israel lobby as that lobby will follow through on not giving them their votes, if they dont play their ball. If other people would realize their power by following through if the Dems refuse to listen, they could force the Dems to actually be a party of human rights and basic dignity and justice for all.

  • The majority of Israelis are in support of both the settlements and ethnic cleansing of the west bank as well as currently in favor of the genocide in Gaza. Unfortunately the opposition to violence and the worst crimes against humanity are a small minority inside Israel. Which goes to show what happens when a ethnofascist state gets impunity and support for decades.

    Turning Israel into a democracy in the sense of the mainstream and majority of the people recognizing and supporting basic human and civil rights will take generations of reeducation or a total defeat. However the total defeat route didnt work in Germany either as fascism and authoritarianism are alive and well in Germany, with many people claiming to be "center" or even "progressive" to be fiercely authoritarian and deeply racist.

  • Are you for real? This is hilariously absurd.

    Forming a government takes much more than just a weekend if you are serious about it and in a democracy there should be a peaceful shift of power from the prior government so having that one run the day to day business until the new one is in place, should be no issue.

    British democracy is even weaker than i thought it was.

  • Neither did Israel in 1948.

    Neither did Germany between 1945 and 1949.

    The whole trope is comically bad, as somehow there is places where they get recognized and then gain boarders and governments and there is places where this is supposedly impossible.

  • It is not Hamas taking the aid. If the US wants to prove to be sincere and solve this crisis they need to stop arming the people causing this famine and murdering the people.

    Also the only answer to reduce famine is to flood the place with so much food, that no one is fearing to not have enough anymore and become desperate to take more for their families and themselves.

    The US said it wants to deliver about 800 tonnes every day. Assuming one meal to be 500g and three meals per person per day, that could merely amount to food for 533,000 people, so about a quarter of the population of Gaza. But people also need water, sanitary products, medicial products, fuel, clothes, tents...

    To provide adequate aid, we need to think in the terms of 3000-5000 trucks a day after 8 months of famine. Everything lower than that is lip services.

  • Several desperate Gazans intercepted trucks delivering aid from the pier over the weekend, leading the UN to suspend the delivery operations until the logistical challenges are resolved.

    The US is working with Israel and the United Nations to establish “alternative routes” for the safe delivery of the 569 tons of aid transported to Gaza since last week, Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said on Tuesday.

    Asked whether any of the aid has been delivered to the people of Gaza, Ryder said, “As of today, I do not believe so.” He added that aid had been held in an assembly area on shore, but as of Tuesday had begun getting moved to warehouses for distribution throughout Gaza as alternative routes have been established.

    Ahh yes, blame it on "warlords" and blame it on Hamas instead of acknowledging the deliberate starvation of people to result in people desperate for food. Great way to distract from the perpetrator of starvation, which is Israel who btw. could still end this famine today, by allowing in all aid and stop burning aid trucks.

  • If you are a US citizen and you are in the US military doing their bidding with/in a foreign army it is fine. If you are applying for citizenship that is different, because you should see yourself as a worthless beggar who only might receive the grace of the US to let you in.

  • If you need it to be happy: Fuck the Republicans and fuck the Dems for trying to be as similar to them as they can get away with. But if you believe giving them the blanket check by declaring you will vote for them no matter what, you are just encouraging Biden and the DNC to become just like the Reps. And that is why they declared to send more weapons and not stop sending weapons no matter what.

  • I think we should use specific terms for specific things. There is differences in the origins, interests and means of different bigotries. Antisemitism is very different from Racism against Black people, which is very different from Racism against Asian people, which is different again from Racism towards Middle Easterners or general Islamophobia.

    For Jews it makes sense to distinguish Antisemitism, as it is specific in regards to the Religion+Ethnicity combination you just don't find with Christianity or Islam. E.g. there is many Christians and Muslims of all ethnicities while most religious Jews are also ethnically Jewish.

  • It is deliberate. Zionists love antisemitism. They love it when Jews are attacked outside Israel so they can claim to be the only safe place for them in the world. They love to use antisemitism to attack Jews, who do not want to be associated with Israel or are even critical of Israels practices or worst "questioning their "right to existence"".

  • They get paid very well not to see that, or in the case of Germany get paid very well and used support for Israel as a smokescreen to deflect from the antisemitism they rightfully fear to be accused of. Israel is helping German Antisemites to push the blame on "immigrants" while Ethnically German Nazis get to attack Synagogues and have it downplayed. Zionists and Antisemites are allies.

  • Obligatory note for all the "Christians should support Israel" crowd. The Israeli minister of Security said, that Christians should be spit on. When Christians want to pray for Easter in the Church of the holy sepulcher, Israeli security forces are also harassing and attacking them. Israel is not only an ethnostate, it is also founded on religious and race supremacy, where white european/american Jews are on the top of the hierarchy and anyone else will face discrimination.

  • And that is because of people like in this article paying a lot of money and working their lobbies very hard, to not have it happen. You are being propagandized with the same "us vs. them" bullshit, that the Reps pulled in 2016 to get Trump elected. 2024 Dem supporters sound scarily similar to 2016 Reps.

  • That is not how it works.

    It is: "Who wants to get the vote must uphold human rights." The fact that Biden rather wants Trump to win, than to do that should tell you everything about how his second term and the DNC will be after him. Once they think it will gain them some votes from the Republicans, they will start to crack down on LGBT too.
