Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Their reasoning has changed repeatedly.
I think Holy War is a made up excuse to try and curry favor with religious conservatives in America and Israel, and convince that 30% base (not sure what the number is in Israel but I would guess it's similar to America) to keep supporting anything the dear leader does, even if it's definitely not in their interest. They won't ever change their opinions no matter what happens. It's not because they're necessarily stupid and refuse to acknowledge reality or because they're all bad people. In America, even if they were willing to listen, there's a very good chance they will never actually know reality. Their opinions are conditioned and shaped by false narratives (like any of this being God's will), and every piece of information they receive is tightly controlled.
I honestly believe the real reason, is Trump is hoping to destabilize America enough to provoke more attacks on the U.S. (or at least make any future false flag attacks more believable). That gives him an excuse to further destroy civil rights/liberties, and cancel the midterm elections to avoid any potential accountability for a very long list of things.
Not sure if Netenyahu has dirt in the Epstein files he's worried about, but he definitely also needs to avoid the possibility of accountability and justice.
Also, keep in mind this "holy war" was never just the U.S. and Israel. It was also Saudi Arabia before they started trying to spin this. Again, I don't know all the details/dirt on Saudi Arabia, but I do know MbS also wants to avoid accountability for several things including his own name being in the Epstein files and for killing Kashoggi.
An article written yesterday said Epstein actually might have known about Kashoggi, and it included a picture of a fake Saudi passport for Epstein the DOJ apparently found when they raided his home.
Basically, the whole world is probably about to be destroyed because a few piece of shit oligarchs think they're too important for the world to keep spinning without them holding power, doing evil shit, and getting away with it, while contributing absolutely nothing positive to humanity.
You're right. I agree, but also have to believe that we can make a way out of it.
I initially wrote a long rant but regretted, because I think the two of us could spend all night long writing back and forth and I need to sleep more than arguing in agreement online.
Remind me: I'll buy you a drink if we're still alive in 5 years.
