Everyone! Dont you see! Isreal is trying to divert Russian troops from Ukraine. This is a win!!!
/s
Making fun of the IDF on Reddit? That’s a paddlin’.
How is this making fun of the IDF? Seems to me the topic is the Biden administration’s arbitrary restrictions on Ukraine.
The trick to a good proxy war is that everyone involved has to participate via proxy. Russia broke the rules and now we all have to walk on eggshells.
to be clear, ukraine went ahead and did this anyway. And then the US lifted restrictions on this kind of stuff (idk if it was completely, but they did do it)
It’s not really arbitrary, it’s just geopolitics being geopolitics, ukraine and the rest of europe showed that russia would bluff, and we’re supporting them more now.
I guess it should make sense coming from a partially republican legislature that doesn’t even believe in the ukraine war to begin with.
It’s about atacms strikes deep (+100km) inside russia, what according to you did they do “anyways”?
They attacked with long range drones rather than American weapons
I know, and that has always “been allowed”.
It’s not up to Biden bud.
You’re wrong. Such decisions are made by the Executive branch.

Look can’t I just be happy a Russian airbase was attacked?
Hahaha
FUCK YOU RUSSIA
Lmao fuck these wars are complicated but there is one simple fact we can agree on
I like the cut of your jib
Ah yes Ukraine and Israel are both American proxy wars and not totally different conflicts with different politics run by independent countries
I mean…. They’re two totally different conflicts with different politics run by independent countries…. That are also proxy wars being funded by the US and China.
I wonder how Russia feels as the proxy in the fight rather than the supplier of a proxy in the fight
Right? Probably a new position for them.
They’re being supplied and bank rolled by China now
We sure are supporting Israel a lot for it to not be a proxy war though…
it’s not a proxy war they’re just using American money and weapons and some American citizen soldiers
And America is using that to exert their influence on that region in the world. Sure sounds like a proxy. Just because Israel has more power in American politics compared to Ukraine doesn’t mean they aren’t a proxy.
Then what is a proxy war?

I mean, the difference being that the US has a say in how one in conducted, and a very justified interest in it’s outcome, while the other is in the Middle East.
Why they are running a proxy war that’s out of control and doesn’t help anything is a good question, and one that can only have stupid answers.

PMCs: We firebombed an orphanage. Any government every: Boys will be boys
For real though, Biden + his foreign policy and military advisors are gonna win a mental gymnastics competition with this shit
Biden be like: “Come here, anything for you haBiBi”
Biden is a simp to Netanyahu.
Drag hears that Biden even does Netanyahu’s laundry
The American reaction in the second frame should’ve been: cool, here’s more weapons.
I hope that’s just a joke, it’s not like Israel needs more enemies
netanyahu needs Israel to have more enemies so that he can maintain a stranglehold on power indefinitely. basic fascism
Russia supports Iran while the US supports the paragons of Israel and Saudi Arabia. Kind of like the US was leaning Pakistan while Russia leans India. Now China finds more value with Pakistan than we do though (which will eventually make us do something stupid to “support our interests”).
Yeah, I still don’t understand the Pakistan thing. Pakistan:
- harbored Osama bin Laden
- has pretty uninteresting economic output
- has serious beef with their much larger neighbor India, and are somewhat friendly with Iran and China
Whereas India:
- has a ton of people
- already has pretty extensive economic ties to the US, which could be strengthened, and is a ripe alternative to China for production
- has tensions w/ China, so we have mutual enemies
- is highly unlikely to harbor any of our enemies
Yet we keep them at arm’s length.
I could say the same for Israel and Saudi Arabia. Why are we so intent on picking the worst possible countries in a given region? The only explanation is that we want war…
Sunk-cost fallacy stemming from Cold War-era choices.
Yeah, my guess is that since they have nukes, we feel obligated to keep them close so those nukes don’t end up in the wrong hands.
More like India remembers our position in the cold war and doesn’t have any desire to be beholden to us. Doesn’t matter if it’s the Hindutva or INC, neither are friendly to US hegemony. I’d hold the same position if I was them of course. I mean we still embargo Cuba for fucks sake.
This the same India that’s been spending the past 20 years cozying up to us? And vice-versa, of course, we’ve been very interested in India as well.
Pakistan is the major stumbling block remaining, not the policy of half a century ago.
religion and oil are the basic reasons, aren’t they?
Pakistan doesn’t export any oil, and while they have discovered oil reserves, western companies aren’t interested due to security concerns. So it’s not oil.
I just don’t see it.
I think Pakistan had important oil pipelines, but am not at all sure
I think you mean pariahs not paragons. Paragon means perfect.
I was being quite sarcastic.
Wow very juicy. In Syria, but still.
“There are no russians in Syria!”
Well, not any more
They did what?
Also, the auto fill results when you type in “Israel bombs” are interesting.
I got “orphanage” as my second result.

That’s just the comedian Isreal, he’s not very good.
Oh I hear they’re quite funny, but anyone who disagrees with their humor is anti-Semitic.
