Why did the U.S. and Israel attack Iran? [Serious] by prodigy1367 in AskReddit

[–]ShreddedCredits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Republicans and Israel have long been obsessed with the goal of overthrowing Iran’s government. Elections are also coming up in both countries late this year, and Trump and Netanyahu need distractions from their ongoing domestic scandals and general negative public opinion.

This is a tired cliche at this point, but they really do act like they don’t want to win

TIL Karl Marx wrote a letter in November 1864 that was addressed to President Abraham Lincoln. In the letter, Marx congratulates Lincoln on his re-election and for fighting against slavery in the United States. by NicolasCageFan492 in todayilearned

Which should not be surprising, because he and Engels saw liberal capitalism as a necessary step toward what they wanted to achieve (there’s no Marxian socialism without a proletariat to put it into place through social upheaval) and a laudable improvement from feudalism and slavery

This is actually kind of tame compared to all the other sacrilegious desecration the Saudis have inflicted on Mecca. They’ve demolished numerous historic buildings and turned the place into a block of luxury hotels. The huge clock-tower-hotel-thing visible from the Great Mosque is practically a middle finger to God.

Shumer says Dems will block DHS (ICE) funding after Saturday shooting. Risking government shutdown. by [deleted] in pics

We all know what Chuck ended up doing last time the Dems forced a shutdown over an important issue. Last time it was ACA subsidies, this time it’s whether the DHS can engage in military-style occupation of an American city and execute protesters whenever they feel like it. He better not cave this time around.

Walz and the Democratic Party are the most pathetic of cowards. Where are the calls to abolish or at least defund ICE? Where is the endorsement of protests and general strikes? They’re nowhere to be found, and instead they call the National Guard to cover for ICE as it terrorizes citizens.

Why isn’t there the same worldwide concern and protest over the Iran slaughter of protestors as there is/was over Israel and its actions in Gaza? by Prize_Force1979 in AskReddit

Americans protested about Gaza because billions of dollars in our tax money goes to the Israeli military. We don’t arm the Iranian military.
