I have a lot of thoughts and opinions about the Israeli conflicts, but the main thought I have right now is simple:
I’m scared.
I’m scared for everyone involved. I’m scared for the children who will be scarred, maimed, and killed in the fighting. I’m scared for the innocent people caught in the crossfire. I’m scared that this is going to start another world war where death is the only victor. I’m just scared and frightened.
I have a lot of Lebanese and Syrian friends and acquaintances who are thrilled Nasrallah was killed but not at the ongoing war. I hsbe Israeli friends mad at Natanyahu and the IDF. There are no winners until this stops and the hostages are released and the civilian killings end. There are only corrupt governments right now
We can't give him all the credit! The US hands are just as dirty, my friend. It's a coordinated effort and not just the violent tendencies of one unhinged person. If we make it seem like it's just one bad guy, we're giving a pass to every single person and entity profiting from this in one way or another. It's a crime of the west.
They’ve been attacking Israel in support of Palestinians. Why would ONLY palestinians be able to retaliate against such insane numbers of civilian deaths?
Even 1 big guy stepping in wouldnt make it WW3. It would take 2 big guys stepping in and for them to be opposing one another.
And even that might not do anything, Russia and the US have been slinging dirt at one another for nearly a decade now in Syria and that hasn't gone anywhere.
yea but you get what i mean, once a big guy steps in, another one in the opposing side will jump in aswell, kinda like the relationship between the us and israeli gov and the palestinians relationship with russias gov
another one in the opposing side will jump in aswell, kinda like the relationship between the us and israeli gov and the palestinians relationship with russias gov
But what you just said runs completely counter to what you are saying.
US directly supports Israel and provides munitions and financing, Russia doesnt do anything for the Palestinians.
Russia and China are the only ones who could step in and they are absolutely not starting a world war over fucking Iran or Palestine or really any Middle East interests lol.
Hell we are very openly supporting Russians main opponent this very second in Ukraine and its not escalating at all on the WW3 front.
The only things that could trigger WW3 will be directly related to said countries able to enable it. Taiwan would be the only real WW3 catalyst at this time.
yeah. people don't seem to get that in the scheme of the middle east israel is a pretty chill country. 30k dead is common in the middle east. it's a horiffically messy place and always has been western involvement or not
i’ve always said this and it goes for many places over there, you always defend them, but would they defend you if they found out your religion and sexuality? from what i’ve seen the middle east is very close minded and they don’t live in harmony knowing their opponent is different
Antisemitism is a genuine problem in many of these countries but it’s only exacerbated by the actions of the IDF and Israel’s government. They’re committing an ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
"Israeli strikes Monday (September 23, 2024) on Lebanon killed more than 490 people, including more than 90 women and children, Lebanese authorities said, in the deadliest barrage since the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war. The Israeli military warned residents in southern and eastern Lebanon to evacuate ahead of its widening air campaign against Hezbollah."
This was just from one day of bombardment. I am sure you can search the internet if you can use Reddit.
But redditors have been telling me for years Russia and China were gonna start WW3????? Are you implying the average redditor doesn’t know what they’re talking about?!! 😱😤
