Probably keeps them up at night that there's no military establishment they can bribe into starting a counter-revolution in Syria.

would be hilarious if israel ends up an authoritarian sectarian theocratic dictatorship after 70 years of being told arabs need authoritarian dictatorships to keep the religious conservatives at bay tbf

Washington not even trying to restrain their rabid dog isn't terribly surprising but the fact Turkey's assaulting Kobani, the capital of an ostensible American ally, without a response is a lot more perplexing. Has Biden gone completely MIA over there?

Netanyahu is fundamentally popular and representative of who Israel is. No point in thinking otherwise.

Oops thought you meant Germany's neighbors 😅

(And Obama fatefully gave the green light to the coup that ended Egyptian democracy and gave us another benighted dictator)

Cue Egypt electing the Muslim Brotherhood that was staunchly anti-Israel and that was enough to make the West decide that the savage Arabs should never get a democracy ever again.

Fascinating insight into the Western liberal mind in that they can't quite understand the fact that the worst dictators they claim to despise is what Israel depends on for its security cordon. It's a very specific cognitive block.

vgh, based

I mostly remember it for its uncanny precision in predicting the date of Kim Jong Il's death.

You know, I know a certain paramilitary organization in West Asia that could use some NVGs

wasn't this the plot of a weird fps back in the day

lmfao yeah it was more a joke about how even if it did, the West has so punctured the ICC as to make it completely worthless.
