A we the baddies?

Not everyone, but you're definitely letting the baddies in to fester and it seems to be all talk when it comes to anyone giving a shit.

I understood that reference

Ah yes, Linsey Graham. A jellyfish in a trenchcoat pretending to be a spine.

Lindsey Graham is a wet bag of ham

The man's just barking. Israel won't do that because they have to develop the strip for luxury condos.

Or maybe it's because King Bibi was puppeting Hamas from the start.

Name something more American.

I'm sure that would have no negative side effects for the rest of Israel /s 🙄

the rest of Israel

Sheesh let's at least wait until they finish the genocide before we say Gaza is part of Israel lol

My bad, for some reason I had it in my mind it was similar situation to reservations in the US. Technically independent, but technically kind of not.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Israel isn't a real country. It's too tiny. It's also right next to the Gaza strip. Nuking Gaza would make Gaza a part of no country and would irradiate most of Israel.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

Surely that will quicken the genocide

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Sure they'll pass laws making it illegal to criticize Israel, but not pass laws making it illegal to call for the use of nukes on millions of innocent people. Both Democrats and Republicans should be ashamed. I can't see any difference between Lindsay Graham and what he alleges Hamas is doing.

Is this what he's like when none of male prostitutes around Washington will go near him anymore?
