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.

This community likes John Mearsheimer, Stephen Walt, Alison Weir, Edward Said, Rashid Khalidi, Ilan Pape, Norm Finkelstein, Noam Chomsky, Grant Smith, Chris Hedges, Robert Scheer, Ray McGovern, Larry Johnson, Col.

Nah she's just racist.

Like anyone else with a heart, I want Israel to leave Gaza the fuck alone, but she has zero empathy and doesn't care about that. She just fears and hates Jews.

Sure, but it's surprising she isn't zionist as an expression of her racism. Most American christian zionists don't give a shit about the well-being of Jews, they (a) want them gone from here, and (b) want to kick-start Armageddon (for which Jews returning to Israel is a precondition) because they think they're gonna get "raptured." Support for Israel is not only entirely compatible with racism, in a lot of cases it's motivated by it.

MTG seems like just the kind of holier-than-thou dipshit who would buy into delusions like that, so it's surprising she's not.

Marjorie Taylor Greene should be put in chains and forced to labor until she dies.

In another timeline, a US politician saying Israel has nuclear weapons would be a major headline, a BIG fucking deal.

Stupid question: why? I thought it was well known they have them?

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 6 points 5 days ago

It fucks up non-proliferation.

Why would the rules bind Iran for example, if they don't bind Israel?

The US loses negotiating positions if it can't keep pretending that the rules matter.

The West has pretended for decades that Israel wasn't armed with nuclear weapons. Kind of a wink and nod, know what I mean?

Fucking Jewish space lasers.

Extremely critical support

$500mil will surely solve the national debt. I mean not giving Isreal more weapons is good but she just voted to add nearly $4 trillion to the national debt so $500mil ain't gonna do much.
