  • You keep insisting that you’re not on their side, but you do insist we more or less are morally obligated to let them try to kill us without responding.

    Furthermore, you demonstrate a clear double standard in your argument. If the only logical response to being bombed by the West is to attack Westerners, then doesn’t it stand to reason that the logical response to being attacked by the Houthis is to attack the Houthis? It’s the same as the arguments defending Hamas. You treat the Arabs as if they’re too stupid to try diplomacy while arguing we are morally obligated to endure being attacked by them.


  • Well you did just say you support the Houthis attacking Israelis, so you are rather proving my point.

    They haven’t fired any rockets since the last bombing.

    The Houthis are murderous terrorist slavers. I do not trust them. I do not care what they want. I want them dead. I may not support Israel’s war effort, but that does not justify the Houthis attacking us. They have chosen to make themselves the enemies of America and I expect them to be treated as such.













  • Israel didn’t purposefully attack Americans because they are Americans. It’s not much, but it’s a difference.

    All of those descriptors except for the slavery one apply to israel and half of Americans give them unequivocal support. And? That doesn’t dispute anything I said.

    First of all, the UN would gladly vote Israel out of existence. Second of all, I do not necessarily oppose a ceasefire. My point was that letting the Houthis get away with attacking us is stupid and, more importantly, politically indefensible.





  • First of all, that comparison is bullshit and you know it. The Houthis are purposefully attacking American citizens abroad.

    Second of all, I disagree that destroying their capabilities to attack would accomplish nothing and I have no sympathy for genocidal, rape happy slaver terrorists, so you aren’t tugging on my heartstrings by talking about carpet bombings.

    Thirdly, as I mentioned, they’re genocidal slaver terrorists. So I do not trust them.

    Fourth, this is why any politician supported by Lemmy is obviously going to fail. You have no conception of what normal people think is acceptable. For example: the average American does not hear about Americans being attacked abroad by terrorists who commit rape en mass, support genocide and have reintroduced slavery and think, “We should give these people what they want.”
