When is the admin going to run out of excuses?
The American reaction in the second frame should've been: cool, here's more weapons.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
We sure are supporting Israel a lot for it to not be a proxy war though...
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.
It's not a proxy war; it's a proxy "police action."
PMCs: We firebombed an orphanage. Any government every: Boys will be boys
Everyone! Dont you see! Isreal is trying to divert Russian troops from Ukraine. This is a win!!!
/s
If this pulls Russia out of Ukraine to attack israel that would make me so happy
I hope that's just a joke, it's not like Israel needs more enemies
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...
netanyahu needs Israel to have more enemies so that he can maintain a stranglehold on power indefinitely. basic fascism
🔥
Whaaaaat
Is Israel bombing Russian airbases now?
Is this a permission versus forgiveness example?
Of course, now that Ukraine asked for permission and NATO (not just the US) said "no," if they deliberately attack that's extremely bad.
The first restrictions would be more a 'wink and nod' restriction. If the US came out and said go ahead and have fun then Russia get's a green light to say it's now a war with NATO at large.
Israel, now that's a more 'WTF are you doing' situation. Israel for all practical purposes is a direct surrogate of the US and not already entangled with Russia, and better off keeping it that way. Be even better off if they would stop trying to expand their borders by removing neighbors too, but you can pretty well guarantee that expanding their war won't help anything for anyone.
