Yes, and even within a country there are often various factions taking action at the same time but with different aims, like when American president JFK wouldn't send reinforcements for the Bay of Pigs invasion and the coup was foiled.

And that's so weird when people say "Hamas-run Gaza" but it's Israel that cuts power, water, controls the border, has a blockade on the territory (an act of war), controls the population database and ID cards, and even sells rights to extract natural gas from Gaza.

Holy shit it's unreal how similar Israel is to Nazis. I'd never heard of lebensraum.

It stipulated that Germany required a Lebensraum necessary for its survival and that most of the populations of Central and Eastern Europe would have to be removed permanently (either through mass deportation to Siberia, extermination, or enslavement), including Polish, Ukrainian, Russian, Czech, and other Slavic nations considered non-Aryan. The Nazi government aimed at repopulating these lands with Germanic colonists in the name of Lebensraum during and following World War II.[6][7][8][9] Entire populations were ravaged by starvation; any agricultural surplus was used to feed Germany.[6] The Jewish population was exterminated outright.

The narrative is literally all they have.

Israel spent something like $7 million on google ads as of November 2023. Considering that Palestine doesn't have a PR campaign (or even electricity, or even drinking water...) we can see that the truth does shine through, and hopefully justice will be realized before too many more people die.

Israel: bombs and invades Palestine

Palestine fighting back is wrong.

Yemen: bombs ships serving Israel

America fighting back is... right?

I feel bad for American voters. The last time military action was taken without congressional approval it led to a 20 year war resulting in a million dead Iraqis and the Taliban government back in power in Afghanistan (among other completely preventable atrocities, like this).

The hypnotism of American exceptionalism is requiring an almost lethal dose of ignorance to continue to work.

Edit: Wrong. Congress approved military action against Afghanistan and Iraq. They were lied to by the Bush administration but they did in fact approve both.

these actions are supported by the internationally recognized government in Yemen.

Do you mean the US attacks are supported by tye Yemen government? Do you have a source for that handy?

And great investigation into the interviewee, that kind of critical thinking is extremely important.

Are we still pretending this all started Oct 7, and that Gaza has been a normal place to live for the last 50 years? With all the modern luxuries like, you know, drinking water? Electricity?

The same procedure was used to ban Russia and Belarus from competition two years ago.

a “dangerous decision that stinks of antisemitism..."

Ok bub

a large number of small sticks rather than a central authority with one big stick.

This is a great insight, thanks.
