Israel -Mid East Spiraling Regional Conflict | Discussions

[Torch]

one could make the case that the Russian public is not accustomed to (or capable of) expressing war weariness the same way people are in Western democracies.

Outstanding!

I had not considered that. Damn, I love learning new stuff. Thank you sir.

Drone hits Netanyahu’s home as Hezbollah rockets target northern Israel​

Bibis not going to like that!

 

[DEFCON Warning System]

They leaked to a pro-Iran operation Israel’s potential attack plans against Iran!

How do we know it was deliberately leaked and not just stolen by someone with sympathies to anti-Semites?

They keep writing Trump’s campaign for him.

In some aspects, it doesn’t matter how it was leaked, this looks terrible for the Harris administration no matter how you skin it.

While I agree it could have been a deliberate leak to see how Iran would react, or to throw Iran off, I can’t help but recognize how leaky the plumbing has been in this White House with regards to Israel combat ops.

Harris administration

Sorry you mean to say Biden Administration. Last I checked we didn't have a election and elected Kamala as president... yet.

 

[Spyglass]

Sorry you mean to say Biden Administration. Last I checked we didn't have an election and elected Kamala as president... yet.

I forgot. She’s not Joe Biden.

I swear though, I once heard she was always the last person in the room with Joe, and she was instrumental in executing the duties of the office.

Bah! Semantics. Makes things so confusing, doesn’t it?

Harris doesn't seem to need elections considering how she was anointed the Democrat party candidate.

Well, we didn't call the Trump administration the Trump-Pence administration, then again Trump isn't the kind of person to put his vice president in the spotlight.

Yeah very transparent attempts by many of the MAGA crowd here hopelessly & baselessly saying whatever Bidens executive decisions being made is somehow (VP) Kamalas actions. As if.

It's like being transported in a alternate reality (where most MAGA radicals live) as suddenly the VP has say over policy or legislation that is beyond their tie breaking vote in Congress that always votes by party lines anyways.

We all see through the poor attempts.

Then why is Harris taking credit for things Biden did if she had precious little to do with it?

Because it's a election and both candidates are going to say whatever to get whatever if any remainder undecided voters. Which I still think don't exist anymore.

So if you are complaining that the Republicans are criticizing Harris for things she isn't responsible for, are you complaining that Harris is taking credit for things she isn't responsible for?

Or is this another one-way street you're on?

Why should I when the other side doesn't? Talk about crying for a one way street. Sorry, but no.

Or is this another one-way street you're on?

Defer this comment to my comment above in this post.

I was going to move my off topic convo.. but the thread I was gonna move it to has been locked and the topic has been locked (election thread). So I'll just stop the conversation here unless you decide otherwise @DEFCON Warning System.

 

[DEFCON Warning System]

Why should I when the other side doesn't?

Whatboutism, huh? Again, double standards. You complain when others do it, but have no problem when you do it.

 

[NuclearID]

Whatboutism, huh?

No, didn't change the subject. I answered your question. Why should I if the other side doesn't. But it's fine if you don't want to answer I understand. Think we all know the answer.

"Whataboutism". Could say the same thing to you over your responses of my statement that spurred all this. It's a weak card and why I have stopped using it if you have noticed. Been awhile since I used "Whataboutism" against someone.

Now this is Whataboutism, since we need examples of it:
I thought this was a Israel war discussion thread.

 

[Cilvilt_beredskap]

Last thing about this, I think it's logical (political strategy-wise) that Harris is being included as an influential person in the administration whether she is or not because she's one of the candidates for the election. If Biden somehow was still going to be the candidate, obviously Republicans or republican-symphatetic voices would fully put the blame on Biden in this without really caring that much about Harris.

 

[DEFCON Warning System]

No, didn't change the subject.

What are you talking about? I wasn't saying you changed the subject. I am saying you have double standards.

I answered your question.

I didn't ask you a question. I made a statement disguised as a question.

Why should I if the other side doesn't.

Because you complain that the other side does it. You're Iran or Hamas. Complaining about the other side when you do the exact same thing.

But it's fine if you don't want to answer I understand. Think we all know the answer.

I have no idea what you are referring to here.

You provide enough examples of whataboutism without needing to list others.

I thought this was a Israel war discussion thread.

Just responding to a post you made, which was in response to a post that someone else made, which was in response...

If you want to stop threads from going off topic, you need to stop feeding the beast. Don't worry about what someone else does.

 

[NuclearID]

Ok bravo on that. Gotta give respect where respect due. That was devilishly good.
