| > Don’t forget: our insane support for genocide and an out-of-control genocidal regime that’s clearly trying to trigger WW3. Look, I think the people involved should be waiting trial in the Hague as much as the next man, but let's be real. They could kill another 5.2 million people, and nobody would start WW3 over it. Some people's lives are simply worth more than others to world powers, and in this case, the Thanksgiving Turkey getting a stay of execution would get more people to tune in to the telly. |

| They have begun sending drones and military jets over a hundred kilometers into NATO nation borders. Sorry, 350 km. They're testing waters. |

| ▲ | Tadpole9181 2 days ago | parent [-] | | I neither support Israel's genocide or appreciate the whataboutism. The US has many crosses to bear for our geopolitical endeavors in the last 80 years. That does not change Russia's current geopolitical endeavors. I won't even entertain your insinuation that loaning weapons for an allied nations to defend itself with is remotely equivalent to invading a sovereign, western nation to attempt to annex land. | | |
| ▲ | vkou 2 days ago | parent [-] | | What? That's not the point I was making. My point was that the US currently supports Ukraine resisting an invasion (which international observers believe qualifies as a genocide by Russia), and while Trump has spent a lot of time shilling for Russia, the US is on the net, not supporting Russia. |

| Why should anyone trigger ww3 even if there are mass murders somewhere? Do you want to fight in ww3? You can go enlist in Ukraine to fight evil regime right now. Also interesting that even Arab states don't want to do anything to help people of Gaza, to accept refuges. Why there is no blame on Egipt for keeping borders closed? |

Driving civilian populations out at gunpoint into neighboring countries is called a genocide. (If I remember my history, there used to be a German word for that sort of thing, I think it started with an L...) | | |
| ▲ | ekianjo 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Funny, why did we accept millions of Ukrainians refugees while most of the Ukrainian territory was not at war? | | |

Does russia also doing genocide in Ukraine (again, as many times in history)? | | |

| ▲ | vkou 3 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | > Does russia also doing genocide in Ukraine Since the goal is annexation and erasure of Ukranian identity and culture, the international community believes it to be one. Some, but not all Soviet policies were genocidal. > So that's ok, Egipt should not open border... What Egypt is failing to do has no bearing on whether Israel is engaging in genocide in the territory it is invading. Israel is a sovereign state, it is responsible for its own actions. |
