    This narrative is so transparently disingenuous. The USA is fighting Iran on its own behalf and its been using Israel to prosecute it, escalate it, and create the pretext for direct involvement.

    Thinking back to that time the Reddit Brigade went to Ukraine to be mercenaries and Russia immediately destroyed their barracks. Wouldn't want to be that Joy Reich soldier sitting in some Israeli barracks right now knowing that my victims can accurately land hypersonic missiles anywhere in Israel. Wouldn't want to be the sole survivor who comes home and is rightfully seen as a feral animal by the majority of their country. Certainly wouldn't want to be the German on trial at the age of 90 after thinking I dodged consequences for committing genocide, my family rightfully labeled as Nazis and forced to defend or denounce me.

        Critical support for that one honestly; Putin is most certainly not an ally but honestly turning a fuckton of know-nothing nazi-loving redditors to chunky salsa is fucking hilarious

    Iran is only involved because Israel attacked them unprovoked

    But yeah let's kick off a giant war in the Mid East on behalf of a genocidal ethnostate

      US foreign policy since the 70s, the ethnostate just isn't usually nearby.

    if Trump gets elected, is there any chance the rest of international-community-1international-community-2 uses his uncouthness to duck out of ww3?

    because they're definitely gonna join on behalf of the first black woman president

      One can only hope. Maybe US libs will comfortably come out against genocide then.

      I'm still hoping he'll deescalate in Ukraine with Russia.

      I don't have any real expectations of deescalating with China or in Palestine though.

      Last time he was in office we saw real movements to create a centralised european army. I don't know if they'll use the uncouthness as an excuse, I think the EU honestly doesn't follow because of it. Like it's not that they don't want right now, they do, but when it's the cheeto it's just so unsophisticated.
