    In case people aren’t clear, these soldiers are the operators of the additional THAAD system they are deploying to Israel. These aren’t infantry being sent to kick in doors alongside the IDF. THAAD is a ballistic missile defense system with no offensive capabilities. We already have a THAAD unit deployed to Israel.

    Don’t be mad because you expect to see headlines saying US Soldiers are killing civilians in Gaza. Be mad because this enhances Israel’s ability to continue escalating conflict with Iran and hiding behind US cover when Iran strikes back.

    as the Netanyahu government prepares to attack Iran—a move that’s expected to provoke an Iranian response.

    No shit.

      Its not Biden. Its Bibi. He will time the Iran attack at the best point in time to affect Kamala’s results just right.

        And you’re getting lots of comments removed for calling every single person that disagrees with you, a “troll.” lol

        Lemmy’s not an echo chamber. Accept it.

        I clicked on their profile to see what evoked this reaction from you and not only could you not be more wrong, but it makes me question your motivation for lying to try to silence others?

          I checked the profile too. Today I learned that being pro Palestine and posting food pictures is a far right government plot to make the Biden administration look bad.

        Starting a massively unpopular war after a year of funding a massively unpopular genocide all to keep the modern day Hitler in power is a bad idea. More practically for the US voter, gas prices are going to sky rocket and the stock market will tank, since starting a war with a potentially nuclear armed petrostate tends to cause market instability.

        Also for your rant about “the far right,” that person is more left wing than you, lemmy is a communist site, Harris is a center right conservative aiding fascists – exactly like the person you might remember gave Hitler power to bridge the gap between centrists and conservatives against the left.

        I don’t know what the fuck these other people are talking about. If you take more than a surface level look into their account it is so blatantly obvious they are at the very least a troll. Every time I have seen them they are trying to take votes from Kamala, which can only mean a vote for Trump

        In your mind a government actor would be speaking out against the government’s actions? You alright?
