Someone please correct me if I get this wrong
Israel bombs the west Bank for decades. The PLO are terrorists, agree with us or you are antisemitic
Israel bombs Gaza for decades. Hamas are terrorists, agree with us or you are antisemitic. Hamas retaliate again but Hamas are terrorists and all Palestinians are Hamas oh, we will kill thousands in Gaza too and you can't do anything
Israel bomb the Iranian embassy, Iran retaliate but it's Iran fault
Something is very wrong here
@RosePuckey generally speaking, the simplistic view the media sticks to is “good and evil” the US/western Europe and their allies are good, anyone opposing them is evil, Israel is a US ally, if they do anything bad, no, it was actually done for good reason
The houthis are bad, if they do something for a good reason (like opposing genocide) then they actually did it for bad reasons.
If Iran does something justified by international law, it’s bad because they’re evil therefore they did it for bad reasons.
If the US (the ultimate force for good and freedom in the world) does something horrid like their warcrimes and massacres in Vietnam then that’s justified because they did it for good reasons (freedom democracy etc) (though this filter tends to go away somewhat in liberal circles after decades pass and it becomes historical and not a current issue)
