      Conservatives in the West aren’t terrified of Israel, they love them because they’re genociding brown people

      What gives Israel power over at least the US is that to admit the colonialism and genocide is wrong in Israel means to truly admit it was and IS wrong here in the US.

        I’m sure of this, but basically the whole world agrees with this opinion (see UNO resolutions). Why is the USA willing to die on that hill?

          That is the question everyone who is protesting in the US right now along with everyone who finds solidarity with them as they protest in their own way in their own lives is shouting into the sky right now in one form or another.

          I think this is a step genuinely in the direction of realizing we don’t have to die on this hill but yes it is mindshattering how self immolating this whole thing is especially because it hurts the rest of the world so dearly :(

        That hasn’t stopped the US from condemning countries that aren’t Israel.

      Evangelicals believe that it will lead to The End Of Times and thus the Rapture. Religion will destroy this planet.
