    lol are you kidding me?

    Don’t get me wrong, I support their war (minus the fucking genocide, fucking hell) against Hamas.

    But come the fuck on, you’re literally bombing kids. Cut that shit out, go to The Hague, get fucking hanged for it. In the mean time, get some people in the tunnels, kill Hamas. Then bomb some military sites in Iran and some Hezbollah shit in Lebanon, then fucking go home.

    Gives them at least 3 months until Hamas 2.0, rinse, repeat, boost domestic military industry.

        No it isn’t

        Mutually assured destruction doesn’t go away because of conventional warfare. Nuclear powers have attacked each other directly and indirectly since the 70s and we haven’t had ww3 yet. The most recent example is US troops killing Russians in Yemen, or the US killing suleimani via drone strike. For previous conflicts, see India vs Pakistan and also China.

        The risk of global war is at an all time low because of globalization. Nobody can afford it anymore due to multinationals. We have escaped the Pax Americana and now we are in the Pax Corporata.

        There’s a military solution to every disagreement.

        They’re seldom good ideas though.

            I agree with that, it’s also not practical even if it was a solution.

            Subjugation, however, has proved historically to be a great solution (even if temporary) to geopolitical disagreements. See: literally every war where the winners got what they wanted. WwIi, us civil war, the entirety of Mongolian history, Chinese history, wars against American Indians, Spanish conquest of South America, Ireland(sorry), etc. doesn’t always work, see Afghanistan, lots of Africa, the Incan empire’s pre-Colombian collapse, same for the Romans (well, after it worked for both), etc. but it CAN work.
