Jews under attack in Jaffa

About time the US stopped propping up this regime.
You are mistaken. Israel could push all the Palestinians into the sea tomorrow, if they wanted to do so. If any neighboring country tried to invade Israel, they would lose and lose big. The US's role has shifted from protecting Israel under its military umbrella to a diplomatic partner on the world stage.

When Iran lobs rockets at a military base -- not a civilian neighborhood, a military base -- we pick some iranian targets and destroy them. What would be our response, if they did the same thing to a suburb of a city in Florida? It would be magnified 10 fold. And democrats and republicans would be hugging each other and singing the national anthem together.

And no developed nation in the world could honestly claim otherwise for themselves. Yet here we are, so far down the rabbit hole in the murk of iron age myths and dysfunctional race discussion, that we are debating whether or not Israel should bomb targets in Palestine. What a stupid race we can be sometimes. What we should be discussing is why we are all seemingly complicit with the state of affairs of two peoples warring over iron age religious belief.

This is how reformation happens. We need to reform our global view of ancient religion and stop giving it automatic deference it does mot deserve. When viewed through this lens, the conflict is simplified and more.clear. if the first world started having discussions starting eith, "Religion is nice and all, but it is no excuse for this. This will not stand. Israel should cease to be a Jewish nation and should become a secular nation that abides by international standards of human rights (or substitute Palestine or any of Israel's muslim neighbors). It's time to separate the fanatics from the enlightened.
 
I've no time for Zionists or Hamas.
We should build a beautiful wall along the Greek border and keep them both out.
Things were fine when Ghadaffi, Saddam and Assad were keeping the Salafist Islamists in their place.

Seems a bit unfair. The ME is filled with Muslim nations, yet you pick on the only nation there that is Jewish and would like to demand of them to renounce their beliefs. Why not ask the Palestinians to become secular instead of Israel??? Better yet, why don't you go to the West Bank, go door to door with this great idea handing out pamphlets and see how long it takes someone to grab a meat cleaver?
Your odds of surviving would be much greater in Israel, guaranteed, if you tried the same stunt, so probably that does explain your choice.
The thing you are overlooking is that a lot of those ME countries are not good places to live but one of the ways their leaders retain their power is by having a target like Israel to point to, and let them bear the brunt of everyones unhappiness. If Israel was to dissapear tomorrow then the radicals within those Nations would simply switch their focus to to the next one that they say is disrespecting Allah. Right now Israel is simply the canary in the coal mine so to speak.
 
Trump speaks out.
Where is Sleepy Joe?

All paid for by the US.

Why, sleeping, I'm sure.
He'll wake up soon and blame Trump for the missile duel
