Yeah, this the one. Obviously I remembered the details wrong, but I am curious how well they're living nowadays.

Your comment reminded me about an article some time ago about a maga family emigrating to Russia. I think it was during Biden's time.

Not sure what happened to them since, but they were in some kind of trouble back then. It's possible a conscription order may have been that trouble...

Now we all see what Israel really is.

No we don't. It's just you having an "A-ha!" moment.

Regular people don't have time to worry about the grand scheme of things. What we all do though is look at things from afar and think we know everything about them.

Personally, I think that for better or worse, we're all people. And if you look beyond just Israel, you'll likely find that the similarities currently engulfing us at a global level is a problem all nations of every culture struggle with.

Some do it better, but none have yet gotten rid of the actual source of the problem.

It tells me that either they suck at it or they lacked support. Which means that either Israel was really bad at being the aggressor for all these years or that those people living there aren't an amalgamous Boogeyman hell-bent on destroying everything in their way.

Israel is a nation. In any nation there are many different people. If you ask why none of them do anything about their government, then you are working with a mistaken premise.

Look in the mirror. Your efforts are the same as theirs, Small, unseen and ignored. You can't ask more of them than you ask of yourself and if it doesn't seem enough, then that should be an answer in itself.

I watched some of the video and am quite confused by your comments. It seems to me that it's you who didn't care to read mine.

Summed up, i said Israel has right to self-defense, but not aggression.

Then you went off-road with those comments i still don't get what they're supposed to mean.

Why do these fuckwits come to power again and again? Seriously, humanity can't catch a break.

"I have the right to kill people and take their stuff, but they're not allowed to fight back."

The idiocy is astounding even to me.

I'm not seeing anything that changes my initial points.

Almost every country that has egomaniacs in power strives for conquest.

Yeah, I don't get it. Nazis were set on European domination so of course they would have attacked Russia. Russia would have invaded them as well had the situation been reversed because they shared those ambitions, so I'm not seeing the point you're trying to make.

Had that worked for them them, we wouldn't be here today discussing current day genocides. So yes, "slowly".

A lot of borders were rewritten as a consequence of wars throughout history. The initial Israel land was given to them by the victors of WW2. It's legitimate. Get over it.

Their actions since to slowly and inhumanely drive out Palestinians in order to occupy more land for themselves are not.

Israel does have the right to defend itself, as any current country or region looking to protect itself. Their aggression beyond that self-defense is what should be stopped and punished.
