In reply to the discussion: Gaza must be eliminated': Israel's airwaves are filled with pro-genocide propaganda [View all]W_HAMILTON
(9,373 posts)34. No, it's not. Israel is a sovereign nation. Only so much can be done to rein them in.
Or are you advocating for American military involvement to prevent Israel from doing what it's been doing? Because that's what it would have ultimately taken to stop a sovereign Israel from doing whatever it wanted to.
The guardrails are completely off and those that claimed they were supporting Palestinians the most are every bit as responsible for what is happening there now.

No one asked for military intervention. It's absurd to claim there were no other options.

There were other options -- several of which WERE tried -- but in the end, Israel did not need anyone's permission...

A poll taken earlier this year found nearly half of Israelis supported its army killing all Palestinians in Gaza.

Israel's territorial ambitions and the methods employed to accomplish it need to be "eliminated".

Of course Israel is not the poor defenseless innocent victim. And that bothers the hell out of a lot of Jew haters.
