Netanyahu Gifts Trump Golden Pager to Commemorate Attack That Killed Children: 'That Was a Great Operation'

[chickenladyloveslife@lemmy.world]

"Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an Earth-shattering kaboom!"

[muskymelon@lemmy.world]

That's fucking macabre... And since it's from Israel, there's probably a bug in the pager too...

One day, decades from now, people will read about these men in the same way we read about Mussolini and Hitler. They'll be reading with bated breath about the atrocities they committed and we'll be asked by our grandchildren how was it possible to even happen. Hopefully they'll live in a world where none of this would be possible and they won't comprehend the evil and cruelty that we got to witness, they won't be able to understand how so many millions cheered for these monsters.
Come to think of it, I don't understand why so many millions cheer for them today.

IF they had verified each individual target before detonating it could have been the single operation with the highest success rate for hitting actual militants and the lowest civillian casualties out of everything Israel has done lately, but instead they just detonated like a thousand pagers and pissed off Lebanon immediately after a US Diplomat came by to criticize them for escalating tensions in Lebanon.

Actually, it still might be. Pretty low bar.

I wonder if Trump's Gold Apollo will blow up, too.

It's almost as if there should be 3-4 parties because not everyone in one party is going to agree about everything else that others in that party agree with if it's supposed to represent 50+ percent of the population.

C'mon man, there weren't even enough green votes to pretend they mattered

[mossheart@lemmy.ca]

I suggest you get over your surprise oon and focus on what you can do, it's not about to get any better anytime soon at this rate.

Great, I mean you guys keep saying this. I’ve been hearing it from Americans for decades. Maybe that’s the problem, you guys always have this defeatist attitude like “well if the system was better” well it isn’t, so work within it, or you personally get out there and work to change it. Otherwise there’s nothing you can really do but complain.
You don’t get to just complain online about a lack of change, you actually have to go out there and help in some way physically

One can hope

Kaboom is lurking on the conservation Lemmy. Probably re-evaluating his life choices. Or most likely not, because that requires self-reflection.

[whatyouneed@lemmy.world]

So why give her a vote then?

[jontree255@lemmy.world]

Well aware it’s going to get a lot worse and I have been focusing on what to do.

Still going to call them on their shit at every opportunity.

I mean it seems more because Biden's administration was hugely pro-Israel and consistently the destruction of Gaza and the death of Palestinians, and Harris started plainly her policy was the same. Harris ran on a campaign of telling parts of the left that they didn't want their vote and courted mythical moderate Republicans.

And I voted for Harris, but this was by far a loss due to the Democrats abandonment of their base and what polling clearly showed people wanted change, irrational or not, just something different. Running on a same-as-Biden platform was a massive blunder.

[wizard_pope@lemmy.world]

Sure it's horrific bit it is exactly the type of headline that makes you think it's posted by the onion.

[freefall@lemmy.world]

That is twisted

[fart@sh.itjust.works]

if only there was a way for the democratic party to not be accused of sending weapons to a country actively committing war crimes . alas , it is the voters faulrv

[pyr_pressure@lemmy.ca]

I never said I'm American, I live in a place with more than two parties. It's not perfect but it's a hell of a lot better than if there were only two.
