Current Events > CNN says 2000 US troops prepping for Israel.

(+) Yeah! (+)

The reporting makes it pretty clear that additional forces are being sent to deter further aggression and escalation of hostilities beyond Palestine and Israel, and to help with humanitarian efforts and civilian evacuation.

About 2,000 such troops were chosen this weekend to be ready to assist with advising and medical support, The Wall Street Journal first reported.

If you are American or European you have zero room to talk

A nuclear-armed country is in Ukraine. There are no nuclear countries in Israel/Gaza.

Yes there is; Israel is nuclear-armed.

Not only that, they have pledged to nuke a lot of places besides their immediate surroundings should Israel go under.

No, they haven't.

honestly its surprising this board is still so bad at reading US military movement after all these years

i thought isreal was in NATO but just looked at they're a "non-Nato ally." so how is that ranked higher than ukraine that's been in the process to join NATO?

this really doesn't make sense.

Never mind that Israel spent the last 70 years stealing Palestinian land; right?

In defensive wars started by others.

Thats an unusual definition of apartheid.

So the US and other NATO countries putting boots on the ground in Ukraine would have been starting WW3 by sticking our nose where it doesn't belong.

But helping an extremist apartheid state in the Middle East commit genocide under the guise of defeating terrorism is good guys helping out a friend in need.

How did they end up with the West Bank again? Magic pixies?

Fortunately I'm not either, so what if i said that?

Isreal can't nuke Palestine unless they are ok with fucking up their own territory too. Its the same problem Russia has with nuking Ukraine. Radiation would go over the border into their own land

Okay regular user

Hmm so what are you then?

A South East Asian.

The question is why are you focusing on people's origin, not the content of their post?

Trying to get you off your high horse before you get a nosebleed

In defensive wars started by others. Typically if an aggressor loses territory, they don't get it back.

Or should Japan have retained Korea and Manchuria after WWII?

Or maybe western Poland, Prussia, and Alsace should have stayed German?

To be honest - a peace keeping force in between Israel and the Palestinians is a pretty good idea. Israel would be forced to show restraint, and the Palestinians would get much needed relief.

You don't have the chance, I'm on a higher ground.

Those low oxygen levels must be really messing with your mind to come up with such shit takes.

Come again?

Your head is at the same height as my fart, so don't talk about low oxygen level.

How very 5th grade of you.

The Irgun has been viewed as a terrorist organization or organization which carried out terrorist acts. Two of the operations for which the Irgun is best known are the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem on 22 July 1946 and the Deir Yassin massacre that killed at least 107 Palestinian Arab villagers, including women and children, carried out together with Lehi on 9 April 1948. The organization committed acts of terrorism against the British, whom it regarded as illegal occupiers, and against Arabs. In particular the Irgun was described as a terrorist organization by the United Nations, British, and United States governments.

Back on topic, every country has conquered or been conquered at some point. And Asia is no stranger to atrocities,

If you are American or European you have zero room to talk

go and give hamas hell

Perfect fit for replying a juvenile post like yours, no?

Yes, we Asians has been conquered by the Europeans for centuries, and yet we're not that arrogant enough to say shit like this:

Now lets talk about what Asians have done to other Asians...
