    Id say that if you support this terrorism you inherently understand that US foreign policy is bipartisan and that it doesn’t matter who is president.

    I wouldn’t call them ‘Trump’ supporters necessarily, but they are shamelessly supportive of US imperialism.

    i celebrate it as a potential feather that might break the horse’s back for the man on the right (including everything that he represents), and i regret the loss of lives and needless violence just to keep a hundred or so cannibalistic, pedophilic, psychopathic oligarchs in control of the world.

      Unfortunately imperialist actions like this don’t really “Wake people up” Most people are completely unaffected and the only ones who care are related to the issue or are already involved in anti imperialist messaging and organizing. If you ask anybody they prob have a very middle position of not wanting a war but also hating iran and thinking its justified. very “whats to be done” kinda ppl

      The deaths are needless, to truly speak to the masses we ourselves have to go out and speak to the masses and organize.

        Russia goes out of its way to avoid civilian casualties, US goes out of its way to kill as many civilians as possible, and Israel’s raison d’être is to kill civilians - all of them.

        And to preemptively respond to the dronies planning to bleat about how Russia is pure evil incarnate orcs and how anyone on the internet who would deny that all Russians are child murdering demons must be a Kremlin bot: You don’t have to approve of Russia to recognize that it has valid material reasons for trying to minimize civilian casualties especially in the areas where the fighting is taking place. It is not a claim that Russia is doing it out of the kindness of their hearts but because it has a vested interest in a population it intends to govern.

        The US on the other hand doesn’t intend to govern Iran. It intends to either install a puppet government that does whatever the US wants including that the puppet be responsible for the suppression of the Iranian people. Or just as good if not preferable, the US intends to completely balkanize Iran and transform it into an ungoverned failed state.

        Israel does not intend to govern the Gazan people, it intends to wipe them out completely and replace them entirely with Western Jewish settlers.
