It’s indiscriminate bombing in response to indiscriminate bombing. No one benefits from this.
Perhaps the one nation that is inextricably linked to the west could stop escalating it then aye.
Like we can’t control Iran, but we should be able to reign in Israel’s bloodlust. Alas, if we couldn’t control them in Gaza then I’m afraid that rabid dog is out of control.
You and I will agree that Israel is escalating this near century old conflict and the US needs to stop sending weapons to them, but nothing good will come from more bombs being dropped in the region.
I think this conflict only started when Israel were given someone else land and decided to take more and more.
But no one back then is still alive.
The planet does.
Fewer humans is always a win for the planet long term, the only entity we are basically united as a species in generational war against. The only entity we by actions hate more than ourselves and each other. We're the worst biological catastrophe to evolve since the trees of the Carboniferous period that captured too much carbon before the bacteria that could decompose them had evolved, but unlike those trees that lacked agency, we do the vodoo that we do by choice.
I dislike my species a little more each day, based on our actions of said day. It's quite cathartic in the face of such madness to remember that our mother will win that war she didn't instigate against her ungrateful little brat mistake of evolution, and she will recover from that mistake in no time to the Earth, just a couple million years in its 3.8 billion year history of almost entirely homeostatic life. It will be as if all the world's religions and cultures of manipulative avarice never existed at all.
Thats a happy ending. The world will have peace once more. Anyway, how bout this October heat?
