@mott-the-hoople saidLook to your Trumpist faction who have paralysed your government on his orders if you want a causal link for the timing of the attack there it is.

Meanwhile biden is sending a fleet into the med to keep hezbollah in their box.
@sonhouse saidsurely you can find a way to blame Trump, did Trump give Iran 6 billion!
@Mott-The-Hoople
Yep, all the troubles of the world were caused directly by Biden.
@mott-the-hoople saidHaha halfwit I lost you didn’t I son
Gibberish…did you mean to say something?
Explain which part of my post is gibberish did the ‘freedom caucus’ not oust Mcarthy or are you saying that a US fleet is not heading to the med?
Idiot!
@kevcvs57 saidyou are trying to blame this on republicans and mccarthy is the most idiotic thing I have heard.

Idiot!
A fleet going to the area...is this the same regime that gave these terrorist $80 billion in weapons, abandoned our allies, abandoned American citizens in afghanistan?
WTF is the fleet going to do? help hamas?
@mott-the-hoople saidNo, you're a hopeless partisan hack. It is equally dumb to blame the freedom caucus as it is to blame Biden. Kevs post doesn't present a partisan alternative, it highlights the stupidity of your argument.

It was trump that arranged the date of withdrawal then did diddly to facilitate the retreat and evacuation of the military in good order
No one has given Hamas 89billion in arms stop talking like an idiot
The fleet is a deterrent to hezbollah and its backer Iran from starting a second invasion or barrage from the north
@wildgrass saidoh, giving terrorists arms and money doesnt count? you dumb fuk

A lie, no need to go further
@mott-the-hoople saidA "lie"? Trump admitted as much:
"It was trump that arranged the date of withdrawal'

"Former President Donald Trump has praised President Joe Biden's plan to withdraw all remaining US troops from Afghanistan as a "wonderful and positive thing to do," drawing criticism from some Republicans.
Biden on Wednesday formally announced that he planned to withdraw all troops stationed in Afghanistan by September 11, bringing an end to what he called "America's longest war."
Trump praised the decision, but urged the president to pull troops out before the symbolic September 11 deadline, which marks the 20th anniversary of the deadly terrorist attacks that prompted the start of US involvement in a decades-long conflict in Afghanistan.
"Getting out of Afghanistan is a wonderful and positive thing to do. I planned to withdraw on May 1st, and we should keep as close to that schedule as possible," Trump said in a statement Sunday."

You can read his whole statement of April 18, 2021 on his 45.0ffice.com website:
"I wish Joe Biden wouldn’t use September 11th as the date to withdraw our troops from Afghanistan, for two reasons. First, we can and should get out earlier. Nineteen years is enough, in fact, far too much and way too long. I made early withdraw possible by already pulling much of our billions of dollars of equipment out and, more importantly, reducing our military presence to less than 2,000 troops from the 16,000 level that was there (likewise in Iraq, and zero troops in Syria except for the area where we KEPT THE OIL). Secondly, September 11th represents a very sad event and period for our Country and should remain a day of reflection and remembrance honoring those great souls we lost. Getting out of Afghanistan is a wonderful and positive thing to do. I planned to withdraw on May 1st, and we should keep as close to that schedule as possible."

There is no need for a US fleet to back Israel up and we should stay out of it; Israel has been in illegal occupation of Palestinian land for more than half a century with Gaza being a virtual prison and it and Hamas have been in constant violations of the rules of war by deliberately targeting civilians. A pox on both their houses.

I would like to add to your summary three things:
- Israel does target civilians (bombing anywhere where civilians live is targetting them in reality)
- Israel does face a multitude of enemies who would love to see it wiped off the face of the planet.
- Both the Israelis and the Palestinian leaderships are religiously fanatic and full of misguided vile.
And, so, I totally agree with Mercutio and Solzhenitsyn’s summary you so elegantly appropriated on this one.
