To me, the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the West Bank reminds me of the Nazi occupation of the USSR and Yugoslavia, mass murders and everyday war crimes. The IDF are on the same level as the Nazi SS brigades, war criminals and child murderers.

The moment when craziest person is giving you most sane advice …

The title suggest that Israel’s bombing in the first place was New Hope?

I am sorry that you didn’t understand me that “I don’t judge an entire people of a country as one”.

I do not condemn the whole country, nation, religion, race, … football fans, … whatever, based on some small (or large) group of people from that community.

FYI, I live in a country that is problematic, a lot of corruption, untouchable and dishonest politicians, slow changes in society, divisions of all kinds, mostly on national, religious and political grounds. In every country there are normal people and those who have some kind of problem in their heads and the ability to project that problem, transfer it to others.

Somehow the USA was a “beacon” of democracy, where only during elections it matters who you vote for. It turns out that the USA is a shithole country like the others, only it has a much better economy (for some) and better propaganda.

I keep reading about some stupid American saying this, that. ELI5, are there any normal people in America and if there are, why do they elect the stupid ones?

Nothing new here, the US has always supported the genocidal state of Israel. The US is complicit in the massacre, genocide and war crimes committed by Israel.

In just two days I got my answer.

You just described every authoritarian state that has existed since the beginning of humanity. Unfortunately, I must conclude that the United States is no longer a democratic country. I do not see how the citizens of the United States will free themselves from the clutches of the tyranny that will occur in the coming weeks/months.

Authoritarian states are created overnight, but disappear after a long agony. Corporations turn into clients of the dictator because that is the only way to survive, decent people will become mute passive supporters of the tyranny with the thought “I am not like <them> and I have nothing to fear”.

Perhaps the only bright spot is that the dictator is old and has no chance of ruling for the next 10, 20, 30 years. Unless the system they are setting up is super efficient and will allow the formation of an Autocracy, a dynasty created by dictatorship. Knowing the efficiency of the American system, that is a real possibility and the next elections will be a farce.

The IDF is actually a military formation specialized in attacking civilians, killing children, committing genocide and other war crimes. Israel is a state that carries out terrorist acts, and the United States is a state that sponsors terrorist formations. This is the harsh truth.

ELI5, If Republicans in general don’t want federal control, they want de-regulation, then why they are supporting federal control of California?

Next: California will not pay Federal taxes?

No

Nationalization is so communist thing to do.

I hope that some agency in the US will start organizing educational visits to North Korea, where this tradition of writing essays about the supreme leader has been practiced for decades and the people there have a vast amount of experience that they would selflessly pass on to the citizens of the former Land of the Free.

Bill Maher is the biggest hypocrite.

You can find stupid people in every part of the world. Allowing every idiot to have a firearm is only possible in a country that is run by gun dealers.

Israeli academics have condemned the genocide in Gaza, but progressive liberals in the US like Bill Maher don’t even dare mention it.

They must have been. The problem is that after the fall of great empire, there is a “dark age” untill things settle down. The question is how long after the fall of USA world will be in “transition”.

Trump was needed. It is time USA influence to be reduced to acceptable level. Most likely USA will be devided to 2-3 parts and that is the best scanario for the world.
