Netanyahu can stop without it being a coup. It would be policy turnaround, but not a coup.
Hell, all he'd have to do is call off the attack, and call an election, then step down. That's like, what, a 30 minute press conference?

Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue

All I can say is, better late than never. Are you fucking serious? You support more money & arms for Israel so it can better carry out its genocide of the Palestinians? I don't even know what to say to you, that is how fucked up you are. I actually find myself agreeing with Aerius on this one. ...

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 2024 thread

Thank fuck for that, only a day late. Hopefully not a dollar short. Very simple question: How will the $60 billion in aid help the Ukrainians achieve a more favourable result in the conflict? Result isn't really the right word. The question should be as follows: How will the $60 billion in aid help...

It's either that, or their brains have been heavily modified, if not damaged, by years of narcotics.
Remember their "peak oil" obsession? This kind of stuff is not new for them.
Brain damage then?

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 2024 thread

Personally I'd like to hear aerius elaborate on what he thinks Lenin's mistakes that need correcting were. Because it sounds an awful lot like he means not committing more genocide against the Ukrainians sooner. I'm willing to give Aerius the benefit of the doubt and assume he was speaking of Putin...

Probably.

Nothing beefs up a regime like a war against a hated enemy.

Also, let's face facts, the US has shown it's not getting involved in regional wars right now, so if there was ever a time to try to take out Israel, this is it.

Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue

Another way to look at it is this; Iran just gave Israel a warning. Iran has the capacity to strike back at them. It showed that it could. (the drones reaches Israel, and despite warning, causes damage). However, Iran also showed they don't want to be (directly) involved in the current fighting. (Th...

Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue

Why the fuck does Netanyahu's government think they can attack Iran and NOT have consequences? Oh, right - Israel has a right to defend its interests but no one else does. Motherfuckers. I think this is more 'Iran, don't attack based on rumor'. Until Israel actually attacks Iran, Iran has no direct...

Trumps actions remind me of an increasingly desperate man.

They found two scapegoats. "Hooray". What bullshit. It doesn't solve the problem(s) that led to this. Poland called the Israeli Ambassador in, so I guess they needed to finger someone quick to take the blame. Probably not going to help much, because I doubt they'll release the scapegoats ...

Rather harsh, but hard to refute. What does Haiti produce besides cane sugar and rum? A completely unacceptable amount of telling white slavers to get fucked. Backed up with violence.

Maybe the D.R should start shoring up their border defenses and patrols 'just in case' then.
