@Cow_Revenge@iamashrimp91@thedebralea It’s not a dumb argument. The US gave money to the Islamic fundamentalist muhajadeen in order to counterweight to the USSR’s presence in Afghanistan. The US, along with their client states Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, funded global jihad to stop communism. Then it backfired.
@mdnicke2@thedebralea Israel knew about the planned attack for about a year, and chose not listen to internal warnings and warnings from the US and Egypt. This is 50% the fault of Hamas and 50% the fault of Israeli leadership’s hubris
@iamashrimp91@Cow_Revenge@thedebralea Also Israel’s top brass knew of the planned attack for about a year and choose not to listen to repeated internal warnings. If you feel disgust at the massacre that took place on October 7th, you shouldnt brush off the complacency from Israel’s leadership.
@iamashrimp91@KomradeKarl10 @Lavendesic @chitowngirl1982@liberal_yankee@academic_la @ccmsax84 Well hate for Collin Powell is steeped in racism as old as time. The same way hate of Bush is sheer anti-Texanism, and hate of Cheney is just anti-white hate. Collin Powell was doing his job when he lied to the world. He protected america like no one could. He liberated Iraq
