"Good" cop, bad cop, as usual... but I haven't forgotten ACAB. 🤷

So... let me get this straight.
The US bombed Iran, to stop Isreal from bombing iran first? Knowing we'd be retaliated against regardless of who attacks.
Some real Roger a Muirebe energy
Netanyahu truly is an evil mother fucker, like Putin.
No, he's not. He's is much worse.
I get what you mean, but I think the difference might be more down to capability (and realpolitik, which Putin is undeniably better at) than morality.
Again, capability and intelligence vs morality. Unlike Netanyahu and his ilk, Putin knows not to bite off more than he can chew and his enemies are getting billions of Western aid so he can't just bomb them to smithereens (though he still tries). From his career in general and his actions in Ukraine specifically it's clear he's fundamentally the same kind of fascist colonialist scum as Netanyahu (and the Israeli ruling class more broadly).
I think both are pretty equally awful, I think much like military capabilities, Putin's rhetoric is restrained by his need to have allies. Just like weapons cover, isreal is emboldened by allies that will back them no matter what they say or do. Putin still walks the line to the maximum amount of evil he's allowed to be without triggering ww3.
You guys are arguing between Stalin and Hitler — conversations like these are not productive.
Wait until the body bags start coming back. Marquito's primary job will be censorship.
“It was abundantly clear that if Iran came under attack by anyone – the United States or Israel or anyone – they were going to respond, and respond against the United States,” Rubio told reporters at the Capitol.
“We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action. We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces, and we knew that if we didn’t pre-emptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties.”
Or you could tell Israel that they are on their own if they start another fight.
If this was a pre-emptive strike then so was Pear Harbour.
This explanation is so damn stupid. Our standard procedure for something like this would be to increase security at and around bases in the area. Any attacks on the bases could then be viewed by the world as provocation and NATO Article 5 could be invoked.
The US attacking 1st to stop retaliation strikes against the US is again, a stupid reason, from the stupidest people that could have been elected
Quite possibly the biggest political blunder ever admitting this.
They just seriously do not understand the ground has shifted with Isreal. Dem base support has cratered due to the, ya know, genocide straight to their phones. All while the Republican base has empowered the biggest edge lords possible who think it's fun to be antisemitic.
The pressure is already on as the American population watch their tax dollars literally blow up, and it's only going to increase as gas prices go through the roof. Not even considering the death toll is likely already higher than what they are reporting.
Absolutely fucked.
US politics should be studied as a sub-specialty of quantum physics. Things can be both yes and no at the same time, effects may precede their causes, not to mention the entanglements...
