This community is a mirror of the AltMedia subreddit at https://old.reddit.com/r/AltMedia.

Until January 2nd, 2025 the 'WorldNews` subreddit, with 40 million users automatically subscribed, had an 'Israel at War' livethread constantly at the top.

This community was founded to dissent from this forced perspective, and present the Palestinian and anti-establishment position in general.

This community is 'AltMedia' in the Mearsheimer and Walt sense. Not the Richard Spencer sense.

Democrats and bombing the Middle East

This is one issue that is definitely not one-sided. Hell, Obama loved bombing the Middle East so much he actually used drones to assassinate American citizens.

Have subsequent presidents done this or was it just Obama?

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

That's a really good question, I honestly do not know, at least as American citizens are concerned.

They've certainly all had kill lists and supported unilateral drone bombing. Obama, though, was a bit infamous as having a kill list seemed to diverge in a very meaningful way from the charismatic, affable and progressive public persona he'd crafted for himself.

America and bombing the mind east

Who was the other Republican that Kamala was praising during her campaign while touring around with Liz & praising her father Dick Cheney? He'd sing a song that went something like, "Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran."
