The US, in fact most of the world, came out of WW2 with an understanding that a country deciding that land another country has is rightly theirs was WRONG.

Further wars have been fought defending the sovereignty of countries since then. Several in fact.

The democratic world has rarely stood by and simply allowed these actions to stand.

At least 22 people were killed and 124 others injured by Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese Health Ministry said, as residents of villages near the border defied orders by Israel’s military not to return to their homes.

The deaths come as a deadline expired Sunday for Israel to withdraw forces from the area, as part of a ceasefire agreement that ended months of conflict with Hezbollah.

Israel did not start this war to take over land. They retaliated against a terrorist attack. What you and I and many others have issues with is that they have turned this retaliatory "opportunity" into an attempt to wipe the Palestinians off the map. As Overlander said, that is wrong.

In my opinion, the actions taken by Israel since then have frequently been no different than those of the terrorist group that attacked them in the first place.

"Benjamin Netanyahu has become the fourth world leader to be issued with an arrest warrant for crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court (ICC). It puts him alongside Vladimir Putin of Russia, Omar al-Bashir of Sudan, and Muammar Gaddafi of Libya."

That is not the group of world leaders that you should try to emulate.

whoa.

Trolling for attention tonight i see.

First the usual DH and KJ troll...now heading over to your favorite spot.

Oh.

It sounds almost like a transactional relationship rather than an alliance against evil.

Where have I heard this before?

oh yeah...

wasn't Trump already impeached for this shit?!

Fuck Merrick Garland.

A man too civil, too principled, for his time.

Yea.

Trump’s return to power is due as much as anything to a complete systematic failure at every level and institution that was otherwise supposed to protect us from this sort of thing.

Unfortunately, our forefathers never imagined that someone as unprincipled as Trump would ascend to the presidency, or that the American electorate would be complicit in helping anyone with his lack of character do so.

The founding fathers didn't.

But that oversight was corrected by our forebears who served on the Joint Committee on Reconstruction. Which of course was necessitated by the country being split in two over...checks notes...notthepriceofeggs.

lemme just articulate:

as we watch Evil Rich People drawn to Trump like Gollum drawn to The Ring, the one thing they really hope we'll continue to do, is for one class of man to continue to be divided from another on cultural and partisan differences.

If we are gonna have any sort of future, we're gonna need some class unity.

unity?

who’d you vote for again?
