There are 6,000 Americans trying to leave. We've evacuated 100.

Responded to the wrong comment- pre coffee. Not braining today, deleted it with an apology for off-topic’ing your discussion.
It's neoliberalism protecting capitalism
Nah, there's nothing about capitalism to protect here. I would agree that's part of their support for Israel, but not getting our own people out of the way doesn't make sense with that.
Caring more about war profits than human lives is pretty capitalism
Or just plain racist.
You misspelled "nazism". Israel is a Nazi state, starting from racial laws, imperialism and occupation and ending on the genocide.
You may have acute amnesia
Paying taxes to fund the bombs that kill you:
Well, that's because they are.
At first I really wanted to say "good, now they are treated the same as the Lebanese people living alongside them" but no, that definitely isn't "good" by any real measure of this word. I hope this whole tragedy will stop soon.
It won't stop until either Israel is disarmed or there is a complete change of people in charge of Israel and criminals like Netanyahu, his entire government and IDF commanders are sent to prison.
That latter option won't cause much change. Israel is, as a state and as a people, ideologically poisoned. They need something on the level of the denazification of Germany before you can hope for any change.
