    Had that worked for them them, we wouldn’t be here today discussing current day genocides. So yes, “slowly”.

      “Why did the Nazis invade Russia when they already conquered Poland?”

      Because (drum roll please)

      They are Nazis.

        Yeah, I don’t get it. Nazis were set on European domination so of course they would have attacked Russia. Russia would have invaded them as well had the situation been reversed because they shared those ambitions, so I’m not seeing the point you’re trying to make.

            I’m not seeing anything that changes my initial points.

            Almost every country that has egomaniacs in power strives for conquest.

                I watched some of the video and am quite confused by your comments. It seems to me that it’s you who didn’t care to read mine.

                Summed up, i said Israel has right to self-defense, but not aggression.

                Then you went off-road with those comments i still don’t get what they’re supposed to mean.

                  Before Oct 7th 2023 was the deadliest year on record for Palestinians in the West Bank. What does that tell you?

                  Israel is the aggressor and it always has been.

                    It tells me that either they suck at it or they lacked support. Which means that either Israel was really bad at being the aggressor for all these years or that those people living there aren’t an amalgamous Boogeyman hell-bent on destroying everything in their way.

                    Israel is a nation. In any nation there are many different people. If you ask why none of them do anything about their government, then you are working with a mistaken premise.

                    Look in the mirror. Your efforts are the same as theirs, Small, unseen and ignored. You can’t ask more of them than you ask of yourself and if it doesn’t seem enough, then that should be an answer in itself.
