I don’t like it, but it seems like Israel is increasingly telegraphing their willingness to use nuclear weapons, and everyone’s scared and throwing the Palestinians under the bus.

Yemen was shooting missiles at Ben Gurion airport and blocking the entire red sea. Iran barraged Tel Aviv.

China not being able to sign a UN resolution out of 'fear of nukes' is just cope.

Such childish naivety of the threat of nuclear annihilation is a threat to the continued existence of our species. You need to grow up.

Oh great argument I now fully support sending 5 gajillion dollars to AIPAC or else they will nuke me.

This is truly a great moment to weed out the true anti Imperialists to people who will do any level of mental gymnastics for China.

I really feel like they used to hire a better caliber of astroturfers. You think you can pull off pretending to be anti-imperialist, while pushing imperialist narratives about China and downplaying the threat of nuclear war?

No wonder you’re banned from leftist instances.
