    I don’t think people are cheering on Iran, I think they’re cheering for Israel to be on the receiving side of violence for once.

      So… all the other times Israel has been on the receiving end of violence are what exactly? Not worth it? Why, pray tell, those times do not count specifically?

      Is there a particular characteristic of the Israeli population that makes those times not count for your metrics?

        Ah yes, the wild Crybully in it’s natural environment, you can tell by the way it proudly displays it’s plumage of bright, garish accusations of anti-semitism every time it feels even slightly threatened.

          forget being threatened, they use antisemitism whenever they are criticised for their unprovoked murdering of kids or shooting people trying to get food for their starving families. at this point israel is threat to entire humanity not just middle-east.

          this same framework of shameless brutality + propaganda of right to defend is now used by rabid oligarchy against the working class across us.
