I don’t think I’ve seen anyone on Lemmy make the distinction between Netanyahu and the people of Israel, so im not gonna name the distinction between you and Trump.
And that’s just the more recent example. You guys treated all my people like the enemy when it was time to use us as the excuse for war. I got to suffer because of your country, and which of you supported it is irrelevant if that’s how we’re gonna look at it

What? People talk about the nation of Israel and its government as the ones doing this. They blame the IDF for carrying out the orders. I have never seen blanket blaming of the larger Israeli population - aside from actual anti-semmites.

In fact I’ve seen many people talk about how the Zionists control the government but do not represent the nation.

I have also seen that infographic and they are very generous with a lot of their timetables. For instance, they count the entire Cold War. If you want to include covert military operations and funding of rebel groups, well then an awful lot of nations have been engaged in war for 80%+ of their existence lol

It is true that the US is a war mongering nation. But the 17 years thing is bordering on the intellectually dishonest.
