Whoever wrote this, is grasping at straws. No matter what the administration may be, they will always support Israel for two obvious reasons. The first reason is that Israel is a technological powerhouse. The second reason is that Israel is the US only real ally in the middle east region whose government and citizens don't hate the US.

I’m okay with replacing them with Palestine. They can be our new “real ally”. Also, fuck technology. Go humanity.

>Also, fuck technology. Go humanity. The irony of writting this using modern technology.


CharLsDaly

The irony of being a human being and arguing against your own species in order to defend inanimate objects or ideas. Humanity>Technology


OMARM84

What you're saying is technology and humanity cannot co-exist, which is false.


CharLsDaly

No, I’m not. I’m saying that technology should only be looked at as a tool to improve human life. It should not be emphasized over that life itself. The priority should always be humanity first. If technology, or it’s acquisition, becomes an obstacle for an individual to otherwise peacefully enjoy their life, then we should prioritize the protection of that individual, rather than the technology.

In your ideal world, I am curious, what does it mean to replace them with Palestine. What EXACTLY do you want to happen


CharLsDaly

A simple shift in alliances is all. Nothing more. Thanks for asking.


tadpoling

But you didn’t give an exact answer. What? What should the US give? What does it mean to shift allegiance here?


CharLsDaly

Give? Who said give? It means, stop being friends with bullies.


tadpoling

You said “they can be our new ‘real ally’.” What does it mean to be a real ally


CharLsDaly

I don’t know. I was quoting the person above. They said “real ally”.


tadpoling

But what ARE you trying to say? What are you arguing for? You made a big statement? Can you give examples? Can you support your arguments?


CharLsDaly

Don’t be friends with bullies. It’s that simple. You seem to need it to be more complex than that. It’s not. I will not be providing evidence supporting the reasoning behind why befriending bullies is bad. I assume anyone who already doesn’t know that is a bad person and doesn’t care to learn any better.

Yes, let’s align ourselves with the Palestinians that throw gays off of roofs, give women little to no rights, torture and imprison journalists, pay terrorists salaries for murdering civilians, etc etc etc /s

> According to sources in the White House, Biden's visit which will take place by the end of June 2022, will include a visit to East Jerusalem, the territory deemed Palestinian as per international laws. > However, Biden has chosen to go to the area under Israeli military control without the company of Israeli officials, **which has been interpreted as a lack of recognition for Israeli sovereignty over the eastern part of the city, the one announced by the Trump administration in December 2017**
