    Sure, because you can destroy an ideology by killing everyone in the group. That will never backfire.

    This is some bullshit. I don’t care what side of this you’re on, if you think killing an organization will stop people from acting in anger and fear against the country that does the killing, all you need to do is look at history to know your thought is wrong.

        You mean ISIS, the group that’s an offshoot of Al-Qaeda? It’s a perfect example of this strategy not being effective…

        Hahaha dude, do you think that might have something to do with how the media covers things?

        This mother fucker right here thinks ISIS doesn’t exist anymore.

    I’d bet a lot of money he didn’t say that, or it’s taken out of context.

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/washington-examiner/

    But I’m sure as shit not giving them a click, there’s an almost zero chance the article is better than the headline.

    And I have no idea why anyone would read that website let alone promote it on social media

        You saw a Washington Examiner article on TV and that made you want to spread it on social media?

        That still doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me

          Saw it on CNN.

          Had a news alert on computer

          Shared it

          Happy?

            Nope, still pretty confused why you’re posting unreliable rightwing websites, and I don’t think you’re gonna explain it either.

            Feel free to keep doing it, but people are still gonna keep commenting on why nothing these websites say matters.

            So you might as well get used to it.

        Why would Fetterman agree to an I review with them? It’s almost like you didn’t read the article

    If he did say it, he’s right. Nothing the bots and keyboard warriors say here is going to change the fact that Hamas needs to disappear. Israel isn’t faultless, in fact they are horrible, but taking a side is stupid at this point. You, the internet troll, or whatever, has zero chance to change the outcome.

    The best you can hope for is that Hamas dies off without taking innocent people with them.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
