    I like how if a liberal/Democrat questions all the financial support for Israel…he’s just “protesting Israel’s methods.” But when a Republican questions all the support for Urkaine “They’re all traitors and in bed with Putin!”

      Simply put:

      Israel and Russia = bad guys

      Palestine and Ukraine = good guys

        Russia of course, but the Palestine/Israel thing can be debated until the cows come home…

      • Russia forcefully invaded a sovereign country without provocation.
      • Israel is conducting an asymmetrical war against an oppressed minority, and using collective punishment.

      I wouldn’t expect someone with your limited ethical, and intellectual capacity to understand why those things are wrong. I would, in-fact, expect that you are in favor of both of those things since you want to allow the United States to be turned into a fascist hell-hole just for the fucking lulz.

      Hopefully you never win because in the marketplace of ideas you are fucking bankrupt.
