It’s called deescalation through escalation.
America supports it when Israel does it, that means it’s okay.
Iran, go right ahead. Lebanon, go right ahead. Hamas, go right ahead.
Israel and America have already stated this is a perfectly valid reasoning. The rules of war go both ways.
Again: If America is the world ethics, these actions are perfectly valid. This is what America does.
Except it isn't. USA does not preemptively attack countries which plan to attack USA, since nobody is doing that. USA wrecks and coups countries because they are either trying to leave the US hegemonic control or the ones that are simply appealing targets for imperialism.
Yes i know what you meant and that's why i corrected you so you don't accidentally whitewash US imperialism by suggesting they are even in the slightest bit justified. US does not attack people because they hate US. People hate US because it attack them, motive being imperialism, always and everywhere. And you just went like "fuck off". Sad and disappointing.
