    Israel is also an aggressive, dishonest, genocidal ethnostate, supplied by the most overgrown military apparatus in human history.

    Citizens in Israel and the U.S. have an obligation to change our governments and societies for the sake of the entire world. Until then, pearl-clutching over justified blowback deserves no sympathy.

      We’ve had quite a recent history of nations thinking they will have a quick, easy offensive and be done with it.

    Americans are running low on jobs, food, money, health care, education, legal due process, civil rights, and now self respect. A lot of which is due to zionists effing everything up. I hope they have zero interceptors and have to pursue peace instead.

    This seems like the thing you check before you attack a world power so you can bully your neighbors and steal their homes, but what do I know?

      Palestinians have amazing gastronomy. learn to cook some of their stuff. I make about 20kg of pittas and hummus every week for a mutual aid and costs me about 8$ per week. their food is amazing and cheap as fuck.

          not gatekeeping, just advice, get the best olive oil you can, ideally from a shop you can taste it. And good zaatar is hard to find, avoid any from Walmart spice rack, chances are they replaced the actual zaatar herb (Hyssop in English) with oregano. Most of their food are cheap ingredients so those two key ingredients are important.

          if you try Palestinian cooking with low quality oil and oregano instead of zaatar you’ll get something that tastes nothing like it’s meant to taste that.

            Good advice. :)

            Luckily its easy for me to avoid Walmart, I think the closest one is several thousand kilometers away. :D And I’m already a snob about olive oil so I got that one covered as well :) IIRC, theres a middle-east specialized spice/food shop fairly near me, I’ll go check their selection.

    Wow, they didn’t stop to check that before starting a war? That seems ill advised.

    So, basically attacking a country that has been preparing for this war for 20 years might turn out to bite them in the ass?

      don’t think so, the real damage is that their economy is nearly at halt, given they spent most of the day in shelters, schools are closed.
