Of course, I'm just a "mediocre" non-Jew and, therefore, inferior, so you can disregard what I say entirely because "jew" = superior. You may as well leave it at that. That said...
You'll have to accept that the villains in your story will never admit they are villains, or just stay malding about the Jews being the winners and saying what they want to justify their actions.
This will be what it is; I personally have no power to prevent it, but this is a
discussion forum and we're discussing the unprovoked attack the State of Israel launched on the [Islamic] Republic of Iran. Questions of morality in such circumstances will always be - and should be - asked.
You could reconcile yourself to the world and history a bit more fully, and abandon moral categories for evaluating what was basically always ethically justified to the actor.
Given that quote from
@Catch The Rainbow that I broke down a few posts ago, I'm not sure "ethics" truly enters into it.
The Arabs aren't leaving Egypt either, those settler colonist bastards.
Is there a particular reason they should? They've been there continuously for something like several-hundred years or so, yes?
Is there a time threshold where you won't be mad at hypocrisy in politics?
The issue is quite a bit more complex than "hypocrisy in politics", friend.
Are you mad about those awful Prussians conquering the rest of Germany and then inventing the welfare state? Talk about some hypocrites.
You'll have to come to the realization that events of antiquity - or even of a brief hundred or so years prior - have little, if any, bearing on things literally happening as we speak.
Americans are not different. Americans were and many remain quite convinced God gave us this land, and the Indians were a bunch of mouthbreathers whose ineffectuality at warfare is proof of America's manifest destiny.
These United States certainly have their fair share of innocent blood on their hands, it's true. It's also true that despite it's failings, these United States have been a tremendous force for good in the world. I'm not sure you can make that case for the modern State of Israel.
And yes, there are American religious fanatics [mostly ardent supporters of the State of Israel] who also believe in what was once known as Manifest Destiny. How often are the deci
America should never fight for what is good, but for what is strategically wise. It is always a bad idea to break an alliance with a group of people who are strong, generally united, smart, rich, and good at fighting, and friendly to you, for a group of people who are weak, generally disunited, stupid, nigger rich, and bad at fighting.
Being an ally doesn't mean rubber-stamping any and all activities of said ally.
You would gain a lot of advantage in your life if you stop thinking about politics and history in terms of moral categories which are never sufficiently descriptive of human behavior or human nature. You should think about benefits, costs, and assessing the real potentials of what will happen.
Real potential you say? Remind me again how many weeks away from a nuclear weapon Iran has been for the past thirty years? Over that same time-frame, how many acts of aggression has the State of Israel initiated in the name of Jewish supremacy and what has been the result of these collective actions? How much "peace" has the State of Israel won for itself in those decades? What has happened, what
is happening and what will
continue to happen is that people will continue to object to and "resist" - for lack of a better term - the punitive and racist acts of the ME's worst neighbor, to all our collective detriment.
There's no good future for the Islamic Republic of Iran, and there's no case for abandoning Israel to deal with those crazies when they threaten everything the US built in the Cold War and were the engine of the awful costs of our wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
I'm not sure where I called for an outright end to the pragmatic Israel-US relationship, so I'm not sure why you're even suggesting it.
I'm not even going to bother addressing this twaddlespeak about Iraq and Afghanistan.
You are expressing a child's moralizing view of politics. "THE BAD GUYS SHOULD SAY THEY ARE BAD BECAUSE THEY ARE SO BAD AND AWFUL SO I AM NOT MAD AT THEIR HYPOCRISY BUT THEY ARE JUST SO EVIL," is what I took from this...
You're entitled to your opinion.
...and you sound extremely angry at a group of people you have decided without a lot of clear or inarguable evidence is evil...
...because they settled in a place...
Let's be very clear; the modern State of Israel, as in the land that generally conforms to that within the boundary of the 1922 partition plan which separated "Jewish Palestine" and "Arab Palestine" is, in significant part [not entirely], land stolen from its rightful inhabitants.
The actual area either inhabited by Jews continuously from antiquity [and
extremely small area] or legitimately purchased from the mid-1800s onward for "Jewish" cultivation and settlement is a rather small part of the whole.
While I put little stock in the United Nations partition plan of the late 1940s, it more accurately laid out the dimensions of a country based on population centers than the 1922 partition plan.
They didn't just "settle" there, they came in, terrorized the inhabitants in an attempt to expand "Jewish" territory and when the rightful landowners resisted they murdered them. Because the land was "theirs" by "right", and they weren't going to share it with anyone that wasn't willing to put themselves under the political control of a "jewish" state.
...made war to secure it, made war to defend it...
Yes, in fact the people who refused to leave their land or subject themselves to an alien authority didn't particularly like being ethnically cleansed from land they legitimately owned, any more than you would if a squatter one day made camp in your back yard and subsequently engaged in violent acts in an attempt to force you out. So those people attempted to form an alliance to take back what was taken by force. And, to a degree, they did. And now they live under a military occupation, treated as less than human - certainly not equals - because to this day they continue to be angry that what was theirs was stolen from them and they haven't just happily accepted the situation.
...and continue to make war against the nations that are developing capabilities to destroy them...
There are consequences to stealing someone else's land and, subsequently, being a bad neighbor.
The falsely-called "palestinians" may be among the shit of humanity, but you'd react no different where you in their shoes.
...while other groups are intransigently attacking/counterattacking them for decades.
Again, actions have consequences, as does a misbegotten belief in your own "superiority".
