I feel so bad for the people being deployed and their families. These people are being positioned to be triggers for a war against Iran. They believe it will be easier to manufacture consent for that war if the administration (whichever one we have) can point to dead Americans. Sick shit.
They should point to the Americans killed by Israel
They don’t care about kids dying in their own backyards. They definitely don’t give a shit about Americans abroad.
Manufacture consent? That’s gotta be the phrase for what’s been happening with media coverage about anything China related. The media really seems to be playing up the idea of a war with China so that the population would accept and support said war. We should not. I don’t really like China and they’ve even ruined my favorite videogame, but war is good for noone.
US President Joe Biden has said he is “absolutely, positively” urging Israel to stop firing at UN peacekeepers during its conflict with Hezbollah in Lebanon, following two incidents in 48 hours. Source
Some hours later: Biden absolutely, positively sends troops to help Israel out. WTF…
To support UN peacekeepers, right?
… right?
“absolutely, positively”
Imagine dying not to protect US people or not even their interest.
Now why exactly are we doing that?
One day closer to World War 3, I guess.
As an aside, “THAAD battery” sounds like someone harnessed exasperation towards a rich kid and converted it into electricity 😁
Oh shit. Either he’s trolling Harris’s campaign or they really are a cult. Very popular decision joe, sure people will forget till november.
I got to believe Bibi has him by the balls somehow. It’s the only thing that makes sense.
Can we article 25 this fool? Harris might have a better chance if she’s already been president for a bit anyway.
But Harris will most likely just send more troops. She did confirm she „supports” israel.
You think it’s just Biden that has hands in this? Israel would never have been so bold if the USA didn’t move it’s embassy to Jerusalem and that choice was not Bidens.
Governments and rulers had every peasant below them by the balls for centuries. What are you going to do about troops being deployed to aid israel?
cult
I have only heard this used in referring to Republicans. How did you come up with that description, especially in this context?
Probably from the talking points that were sent over by their handlers this morning.
Seems it could be a good guess

Don’t even try that both sides are the same shit.
They’re pretty damn close on middle east policy
Is anyone really alarmed, this was inevitable.
to stop Netanyahu right… right ??? padme shook face*
The people are fools and leaders are cunts.
In an alternative timeline, Biden finally grows a pair, cancels this and other weapon shipments and the election ends with a landslide.
It’s right there Joe, it would be a bigger power move than him stepping down.
He needed 2 or 3 years to explore student loans. Maybe this is more complicated, so it will take infinitely longer.
They got lithium? Or oil? Or Jesus Christ! They got jeebus?
Sounds like someone is trying to immanentize the eschaton.
