The US hasn't been in a formal war, yes. We've been in constant actual war for as long as any of us have been alive. We've just always had the world's biggest moat between home base and the enemy, so we haven't felt the effects at home.
People wouldn't be nearly on the "clean war" idea as much if "war" in the modern era wasn't built as an emotional sob fest.
If Israel or Ukraine, or really any country, wants to play the "uwu I'm just a soft little baby trying to live and they are bullying me!" they can't be on camera killing children, laughing about how awesome their weapons are, and showing themselves to be aggressors that heavily.
War isn't clean, but the way many western countries wage war is far nicer than what other countries usually go with. I don't consider Israel to be a western country, but their self-restrictions seem to be more typical of the west, contrasted to any of their opponents.
You're awfully mad about a bunch of goat raping terrorists being targeted.
The collateral damage sucks, but that's what happens in wars. Unfortunately, we don't have stand up combat anymore, terrorists hide among civilians constantly.
I'm more mad about the surviving goat rapists being brought into our nations as "refugees" and given our tax dollars. Hope you like Palestinians, because the hebrew immigrant aid society will be bringing them to your neighborhood soon.
I think the George Bush Sr. Administration probably gave more of Israel what they wanted more than any other administration. Not that that's a good thing. The Iron Dome actually originates from the old Patriot Missile system that was deployed to try and stop Iraqi missiles trying to provoke Israel to enter into the war.
Biden and the Israeli right have not been on good terms. Frankly, he's probably attempting to put Netanyahu out of power. I would bet money that the State Department is actively working with the Israeli Left against him.
Trump probably helped the Israeli people more than most presidents, in that he actually kept Iran in check without starting a new war, and got arab states to look into tourism rather than war profiteering.
Considering its under the Biden admin that has lead to the Left literally starting to schism as their own base starts to side with Palestine over Israel because "brown is victim," I think he might be stuck holding the bag for the literal worst any president in the modern era has done for them.
I think he literally is one of the worst presidents of the modern era, and is actually towards the top with the worst in American history.
I still think it's something like:
Abraham Lincoln
Woodrow Wilson
James Buchanan
Franklin Roosevelt
Joe Biden
I think the only good news is that he's so fucking unpopular that he probably won't have the lasting catastrophic legacy of the others, and he didn't lead to the greatest human tragedies in our history.
The problem with him is that his "legacy" will be carried on by everyone. Not by name, but the policies and beliefs are foundational to his Party and we haven't even begun to get them to change their mind on it. Instead they will simply see him as not going far enough to being a secret Right-winger and double down. We are past the point of policy being tied to specific politicians and well into the Left-wing parties just being figureheads for TPTB.
In fact, their greatest legacy might be how hard they bungle those ideologies.
To be fair, it wasn't his legacy in the first place. We are living in the archetypal example of a beuracracy run wild. The agencies are running themselves, and as such no one is suffering any accountability, ever.
Contrast this with the Obama administration. When people fucked up, they fell on their sword to protect Obama's "legacy". No one is falling on their sword to protect Biden, because he's not in charge, they are, and they don't think they did anything wrong.
This means we have a systemic failure on our hands, and gradual reform is simply not possible. I am not invoking violent change, but it has to be aggressive reform. We can't fire 45,000 government employees, we have to fire 450,000, at least. Government has to be reduced to less than 10% of the GDP, at least. You have to economically decimate DC and it's surrounding federal colonies. Then on top of that, you have to have a full-scale changing of the elite. The entire neo-liberal order must be destroyed, and all of it's minions must be scattered to the winds. There is no head of this snake, we have to push so hard it gives us a cascade collapse. Then, like the Soviet Union and the Napoleonic Confederations before it, all at once, the entire Neo-Liberal order fucking Thanos Snaps out of existence.
I think very much that if Biden was still half as sharp as he was a decade ago, we'd see a lot of Obama repeats. People feel comfortable betraying him because they know he is feeble and cannot even remember things well enough to get revenge.
Its more of a show of how little loyalty they all have to anyone, rather than a demonstration of his power.
True and its a whitepilling reminder that no amount of money or power is enough yet to protect these people from God (or nature if you prefer). They will always be trapped in a rotting shell forced to watch themselves deteriorate. Biden seems to have gotten the worst possible end of that stick compared to others like Soros, but that may only be because he is forced to be seen regularly while they can just slink in the background.
Huh? Do they mean that she made him look good in comparison to herself? Because I don't think she has had that much of a say in how the mainstream media denied or hid things and others in the administration have lied to protect Biden.
Correction, no administration has helped Israel KILL as many as they have.
War, I'm sorry there hasn't been a war since 1944. I don't remember Congress voting to declare a war.

Comment Reported for: Rule 12 - Disinformation
This all reads as opinion.

I'm fine with closing our borders and defending it against all invaders.
Cool it with antisemitic remarks
I'm just stating objective facts, can remember a nice 4 years where we DIDN'T have civilian collateral damage to kill one guy.
It was more 'fuck that guy in particular' during that time which was nice.
Comment Reported for: Platform misuse
This is closer to Rule 2 or Rule 16 than it is platform misuse, and it still isn't crossing those lines.
You cannot shame someone who has none.
this is the most cognizant Biden has sounded in months.
The old fart is riding last days in the White House. Who fucking knows what’s going on there.
The whole thing is a circus.
I mean... isn't it just business as usual? American politicians are locked in a perpetual contest to prove who is sucking Israel's dick the most.
I think the George Bush Sr. Administration probably gave more of Israel what they wanted more than any other administration. Not that that's a good thing.

How many Americans has this sick old fuck and his trained whore helped?
Huh? Do they mean that she made him look good in comparison to herself? Because I don't think she has had that much of a say in how the mainstream media denied or hid things and others in the administration have lied to protect Biden.
He misspoke. He meant iran.
Biden: Deploys the US military to the region to deter Iran, assists Israel in defending against Iran's attacks, send Israel tons of weapons
Hasbara: Is this an Iranian puppet?
Biden: Gives money to iran to kill jews
Stormfag shortbus brigade: Why is biden supporting israel?
Biden appointed a leader of Students for Justice in Palestine as the White House Coordinator for Intelligence and Defense Policy at the U.S. National Security Council
