Imperial japan would have kept conquesting until they got beaten back. Even if Germany were the only superpower that rival them, they would have expanded until their claims rivalled Germany's and war would have broken out.

the guy being a Muslim wasn't the concern. he's an unironic socialist with terrible policy ideas.

New York has a significant Jewish population, a Jewish person becoming mayor would make sense.

pundits

there's your issue. just like all the American pundits, the Israeli pundits are bought and paid for. the actual people of Israel are not so supportive of their own government.

I posted this in a different comment, but it's relevant here too https://www.timesofisrael.com/poll-70-of-israelis-dont-trust-government-including-almost-half-of-coalition-voters/

I'm curious if it's data security concerns, or if it's really too much data security. if whatsapp's encryption works like advertised, then the feds can't track their employees conversations.

According to Israeli press

https://www.timesofisrael.com/poll-70-of-israelis-dont-trust-government-including-almost-half-of-coalition-voters/

The Vatican represents Catholicism.

which is a denomination of christianity. like most other denominations, they claim to be the "real" Christians. it's no different with Israel

by this logic, the Vatican represents all Christians (they don't).

the Israeli government is run by people who are unpopular amongst a large population of Israelis, let alone jews. It would be disingenuous to assert that their actions are representative of even half of the jewish population.

a slight but important nitpick: the ruling declares the state enforcing safety of a populist trumps the commercial anonymity of the populace.

based on what I'm reading, the ruling is all about the ability to view and speak anonymously, as opposed to the ability to view and speak at all. the supreme Court is basically saying you have the right to say in view whatever you like, but you don't have the right to do it anonymously.

no shit. Israel is just the Middle Eastern dipshit warmonger that the United States backs, so they're the ones we pick on.

What I'm worried about is all the stormfags taking Israel's actions and applying them to jews everywhere, including stateside. the problem is not da joos, the problem is Israel and their supremacist government.

it amazes me that people could even think funding any private institution is required by law.

something tells me he knows striking Iran was extremely unpopular with his base.

whether or not he's playing optics, that f-bomb was deserved. fuck Israel, fuck Iran.

if memory serves, Israel sent their missiles to Iran while Trump was telling them not to. he was urging Israel to make a deal with iran, and it looks very much like Israel forced Trump's hand.

Israel started it. the conflict was gunning to go much longer, and it didn't. it's a small win, but it is a win
