My reality on this site since February 2022.
It’s cute how Israel apologists think accusing someone of being a terrorist supporter will work on anyone over 30. We saw this exact same schtick after 9/11, kids. The exact same vitriol, the exact same shrieking emotional hysteria. You were wrong then. You’re wrong now.
Talking about the causes of attacks always gets you accused of supporting the attackers. Talking about the well-documented western provocations which led to the invasion of Ukraine gets you accused of loving Putin and being a Russian troll. Talking about the well-documented apartheid abuses which led to the Hamas attack gets you called a terrorist supporter, which is also exactly what happened after 9/11 if you talked about the well-documented provocations which led to the rise of Al Qaeda.
You’re not allowed to talk about the actual reasons why bad things happened, you’re only allowed to talk about the bad things and call them bad. If you ascribe any causation at all to the bad things which happened, the causation must solely and exclusively be that Bad Guys did them because the Bad Guys are Bad.
You are required to turn yourself into an unthinking mental infant who can only relate to world events by pointing at them and yelling “GOOD!” or “BAD!”, with “good” and “bad” always perfectly aligning with the information interests of the US-centralized empire.
If the answers go against the information interests of the US-centralized empire, then you’re not allowed to ask the questions. You can only believe what the talking heads tell you to believe and clap along to the beat of the imperial drum, like a child clapping along to a song on a cartoon show.
When empire simps berate you and accuse you of treasonous malfeasance for talking about the causes of terrible world events, what they are really saying is, “Stop asking questions. Stop thinking. Believe only what you are told. Become stupid. Become a drooling moron with American flags in your eyes. Stop using that tongue to question authority and affix it firmly to the imperial boot forever.”
Israel Is Just A Nonstop Bombing Campaign With A Flag
Normalize the phrase “the nonstop bombing campaign known as the nation of Israel”.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.To me today all wars are political, and all politics is based on the establishment of wealth, trade, business and power.
Wars are never fought for the reasons claimed, wars are politically and economically expediences.
The one thing that is certain is that the civilian population who suffer are never the ones to blame, governments and industrial military organization, start and run run wars for their own long term aims and profits.
People are known in war as collateral, and deaths are reported and recorded as collateral damage. Statistics that can be wheeled out and and used as incitement for the justification of future conflict.
Trying to make sense of war using reason is a futile exercise. Trying to determine guilt and innocence is equally futile. There are no guilty or innocent nations, just unethical business practices that trade in ruin and death, to try and divert from dealing with actual problems.
80 years of relative peace in the west has only been allowed to ensure that new wars can be fought from comfortable offices, directed by technology and cause the maximum demand at the lowest cost, with the maximum of waste. All while ensuring population control, redirection of resources and the centralization of wealth.
Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Hamas, Lebanon, Syria, the various African and South American conflicts, and the China/Tiawan potential horror show are just the beginning. When the dust finally settles and the bodies are all burned or buried, a new world will emerge with people satisfied with less, a ruling class still not satisfied with all and a new society that will be unrecognizable to anyone less than a latter day Orwell, and a new dark age will have begun that will last at least a century, gradually crawling up from the ashes until another purging war is necessitated, by to much free thought and a demand for human rights and dignity again.
Circle of life, replaced by the carousel of corruption and capitulation.

It is great to find someone that can reason and evaluate situations critically and speak his mind.
From my own research, I have come to a near identical point of view in this matter.
Perhaps Len you should write a fiction where for altruistic love of humanity, people the world over start murdering the billionnaires and promulgators of such war & destruction. Your palette of people having such urge & abilities to undertake such tasks would be hugely varied but for example if 9\11 could destroy the committee investigating it & the documents relating the US fraud, or one missile destroy a large part of a Gaza hospital murdering hundreds of people then surely a well crafted story can result in the elimination of the Clintons, Obama, Soros, the Rothschilds, the British monarchy & its Prime Minister. . .
If like Harry Potter it became an international wildfire could it be possible that like the millions believing the propaganda that leads nations to war, it will become a meme that becomes reality just as suicide bombers may be a reality believing many virgins await them on conclusion of their task?
