A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

It so is, and so am I.
Do you think the dictators of the US know they're fucked? Like obviously working class libshits keep spewing about "huhu they're gonna find out why we don't have free healthcare" but like, the bourg has to know, right?
What exactly do you think is going to happen? I really don't think you comprehend the absolute ridiculous amount of funding that we divert from everything else into the military industrial complex. American strategic policy is to be able to simultaneously wage four full-blown continent spanning wars at once spread around the globe. I sincerely doubt that a bunch of pissed of Yemenites threaten the American military industrial complex. Yemmen may be a thorn but the US is a lion. Thorns discourage lions they don't stop them.

Bruh they nearly run out of artillery ammo on a single proxy war. Entire US military is geared towards bombing defenseless countries and siphoning that "ridiculous amount of funding" you said into pockets of war profiteers. US military is exactly the same costeffective as US healthcare.
The US has over 700 bases worldwide. This is for rapid deployment of forces. Those bases are stocked. The issue of supplying Ukraine with artillery munitions isn't that we don't have the munitions. It's that we don't want to touch our stockpile and we never will as it's not to be used except in the case of all out war. Since we are not an howitzer based artillery dependant nation, and we are not directly at war with Russia we don't exactly have much of our logistics pointed to production of those munitions as howitzer based artillery is an antiquated tertiary weapon platform. So we gave away the excess supply we had and now industry is retooling to meet the new orders for artillery production.
The issue of supplying Ukraine with artillery munitions isn’t that we don’t have the munitions. It’s that we don’t want to touch our stockpile and we never will as it’s not to be used except in the case of all out war.
And why do you think that is, genius? It's because America and NATO don't have the industrial capacity to replenish those shells in time.
Since we are not an howitzer based artillery dependant nation
Reality doesn't work like that, there's no such thing as an army that doesn't rely on artillery in a land war unless you can get away with having air superiority against a nation that doesn't have their own air force and air defen... do you see where I'm going with this?

lol you're a joke!
I'm glad you mentioned that last point about air superiority. Could you do me a favor and remind me which country owns the first largest Air Force? The second largest Air Force, and the third largest Air Force. Oh right that's the USAF the USAAF and the USN.
I see that irony is not your forte. I'm trying to tell you that the US cannot get away with the "air superiority" tactics they did in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, etc because countries like Russia and China have a lot of air defenses and their own air forces. Do you get it now?
Do you understand that the reason that the US is having its proxy war in Ukraine is that we get to test all of our equipment for free? So far we are not impressed by the fact that Russia's top of the line gear is being smacked down by our shit from 1990. While our air defense systems are still operational and dishing out punishment.
Do you understand that the reason that the US is having its proxy war in Ukraine is that...
The containment strategy against Russia is failed and they decided to fight back, yes
we get to test all of our equipment for free
I wouldn't call throwing EU economies into recession and disarming NATO "free" lol

You live in fantasy land, Ukraine is getting pounded by Russia, abandoned by America and you're still high off the MSM farts with stories of pensioners downing jets with rifles and Russian generals dying every week
A single Yemen Civilian is a stronger and braver person than everyone in the US army and navy
"My dad could kick your dad's butt"
american soldiers deserve nothing but to die screaming
Why? Seems kinda harsh.
they've literally burned tens of millions in a quest for nothing but plunder so i don't give a shit about their lives
Wait each soldier personally, or in general due to orders? I thought it was less burning and more shooting?
i'd personally prefer chlorine gas dropped on military housing, but we can compromise on stake burning
it was lovely dealing with you comrade
