  • The country that has armed settlers go take land all the time already in the West Bank? Nah. /s

    I’m the kid who stood in line and watched everyone in the Pepsi Challenge pick the cup on the left. It was always on the left. It’s how (this one anyway) was set up. So 50 people ahead of me choose Left like good consumers and get their prize (I think you got a Pepsi if you picked right - again maybe just how this one got run) and jack shit or a button if you picked Coke. I pick Right. Because I’ve always done stupid shit like that thinking this was the one that’s different.

    The idea of Israel not intending to gain territory to me is not a bet even the kid who failed the Pepsi Challenge would take.













  • “Raises concern”.

    The media and our their leaders have disastrously misjudged the public’s acceptance of Israel’s actions, imho. I speak as a Canadian who is wholly disgusted in his government and media reaction to this. I feel like I’m part of an abandoned majority sold out for votes and money because my government seems to think I’m OK with this based on their response. I expect a response equal to our disgust of Russia’s invasion and genocide. Greater, actually, for both. Not abstaining at the UN. Not just cutting off arms. I think we should be a vocal and active part of absolute international outrage at Russia, Israel, and everyone else party to this power play of worldwide history worship.

    “We” had some moral ground in disgust of Russia. I feel my government and others have passively or actively accepted and now promoted it in service of the billionaire class.
