“I will be telling Bibi [Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu] to finish the job once and for all with these butchers Hamas. They’re terrorists. They’re massacring innocent people. They would wipe every Jew off the globe if they could,” Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor, said. Haley, a former ambassador to the United Nations, was equally forthright. “The first thing I said to him when it happened was, ‘finish them’.

I really don’t like Joe but he seems to be the lesser of two evils in the upcoming election.

It’s upsetting that he’s yet again the obvious choice among a field of only terrible choices. The only other option to even have a chance of avoiding several calamities is revolution, and that’s also a roll of the dice because who knows who what will emerge from that chaos.

Dude get your q conspiracy theorist self outta here. The most annoying group on lemmy is the one that’s convinced the democratic party and the republican party work together to suppress progressives. The group that holds literally no evidence other than simply vibes.

So… Are you unironically trying to tell me that every Palestinian is a Hamas terrorist? That’s a pretty extreme position to take, my guy, and it’s also the only way to reconcile what was quoted in the article with your editorialized headline.

You’re train of thought is the reason 420 children are getting blown up indiscriminately everyday. I don’t know how your conscious let’s you justify murdering hundreds of children everyday just to “fight Hamas” but you are the problem my friend.

Whoosh. They are pointing out an implication you made editorializing and now you’re getting indignant over your own implied position.
