I am not going to miss the “pax” Americana, but it’s sad seeing this and knowing that the world’s total rate of scientific advancement will go down considerably for at least a decade.

Less support for Israel could very well have been one of the thing Qatar gets out of that deal

If this turns out to be true I might actually cheer for the Gulf for once.

Stupidity, capitalism and conservatives (so a lot of stupidity).

Welcome to Israel, the only democracy fascist state in the Middle East. Also note that the only reason it’s that low is that the rest want to prioritize the safety of the hostages, not that they’re anti-genocide. Opposition to the genocide itself is very much a minority position in Israel.

This is what the anti-immigration right wanrs to do to you, folks!

They are basing their article on this Instagram source,

I mean, the Instagram source is the primary source; it’s a post by NOAA speaking out against these things, and The Verge and other outlets are writing their articles based on that primary source.

The irony of censoring a First Nations writer for having an opinion about genocide is fucking palpable.

Does anyone know what kind of role these people had at the embassy?

Is there a term similar used?

Zionist. I’m not kidding; at least where I come from the word “Zionist” is used with varying degrees of seriousness to refer to someone who’s dishonest and untrustworthy or excessively cruel.

It’ll judge you too, but if you stop supporting them now you get a participation prize.

As a Canadian watching the Israeli government and state devolve into reveal their true colors as a fascist genocidal regime

I mean we don’t call them fascists because the concept doesn’t really exist here, but Arabs have known everything the West is now “discovering” about Israel for more than 80 years. None of this is new.

And the world lost nothing of value.

Oh shit you’re right. Please no.

If this investigation will derail his campaign I say go get him.

I knew this guy didn’t know shit about geography, but dude it’s not even the same continent.

You can’t do anything in the short term, but if you want to make sure this ends as soon as possible/doesn’t happen again, you have many options. Look up BDS and see what Palestine activists near you are doing.

I mean, democracies can commit all manners of atrocities too. Russia was a democracy when they invaded Chechnya if you remember that, and then you have all of Britain and France’s wonderful escapades in Africa and the Middle East and America’s wars over the past 70 years. Also I want to note that Israel has been like this since the very beginning.

I am increasingly finding it difficult to see how the Israeli colonial regime is any better than the russians (putin is a mere symptom of the broad support for genocidal imperialism in russian society)

It’s not. The only reason Ukraine isn’t like Gaza is that Ukraine has an army to protect it, and if Ukraine didn’t have an army to protect it it’d be like Gaza. Russia and Israel are similar to a frankly kind of ridiculous degree.

The strat here is to simply not provide services to the israeli military. It’s that simple; I mean it’s literally the IDF nothing good could come out of helping them with anything.

What everyone with half a brain cell was saying would happen happened. Who woulda thunk?
