Topic	Should Biden go to jail for his handling of Israel one day?
LightSnake 10/21/25 2:41:47 PM #187:	reincarnator07 posted... Honestly the Soviet declaration of war had more impact than the nukes. Not to downplay them, but destroying a city was hardly a novel concept at this point. More people already died in Tokyo than Hiroshima or Nagasaki and they didn't really blink. Japan wanted an out to the war that was to their benefit and was hoping to broker that through the Soviets as a third party. When they declared war (on the same day as Nagasaki fwiw) that obviously closed that option. I have to question if this logic also holds true for the fighting between Israel and Palestine. Israel is not equivalent to Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan. Not even close. I said earlier here I would favor treating them more like Serbia in the 1990s, tbh --- Ring the bells that still can ring/Forget your perfect offering/There is a crack in everything/That's how the light gets in."- RIP, Leonard Cohen <cite>LightSnake posted [p:986795456] in Should Bid...
