TIL Each missile fired by Israel cost $15k to build and the US taxpayer paid 40-50k for them to line the pockets of a few billionaires
Sorted that title for you
Meanwhile they’re not even supplying Gaza with Iron Dome to protect civilians from the ongoing genocide…smh
If you don’t mind me ask what does smh mean?
Shake/Shaking my head
I always thought it was ‘so much hate’. Have I been wrong this whole time?
Nah. I’ve been thinking the same all the while on reddit. Trust Lemmy to be a place where I learn things.
Hope it bankrupts them.
So you hope that Hamas and Hezbollah continue firing rockets at civilians?
How about ending the colonization? That’s the only way to peace.
Alright, so what land do Israelis get and what land do Palestinians get? No matter your answer, one side is going to be pissed which leads to more conflict.
Israelis can return to their countries of origin.
Sure bud. Just like all of the Americans can…
why is it that everyone who defends Israels right to genocide always ends up calling for an ethnostate?
Probably has something to do with the fact that when the Jewish people try to live in other states, they almost always end up persecuted.
IDK man, I’m not seeing a genocidal Romani ethnostate, being a people universally discriminated against isn’t something special, and the others aren’t founding genocidal ethnostates
TBH, I think the Israel iron dome system is justified. Bombing Palestinians is not.
One is defensive and one is a genocide over land. Not really a hard choice for sane people.
The iron dome enables the genocide.
Not really a hard choice for sane people.
Iron enables the genocide.
Not really a hard choice for sane people.
Nice alt account bro
No idea what that means 😂
It could be argued that Israel is free to unleash their campaign of genocide because the people in Israel do not experience the horrors themselves. There is no pressure to reach an agreement. Bringing the hostages back has been the only rallying cry by Israelis, but other than that, actually ending the genocide doesn’t have much support.
It’s similar to how so many consumer goods are produced through the use of slavery. That distance and lack of visibility mean there is little pressure from consumers to stop those practices.
