    Nice work ignoring the decades of conflict. It’s not like Israel has been stealing all the land they agreed to “allow” Palestinians have for the last 50+ years or anything, right?

      So you’re saying they’ve been giving food, water, and energy to people they have been enemies with for “decades”?

      That’s awful nice of them, but it doesn’t change the fact that declaring war is going to get those things taken away.

        … you really want to use that argument? “Giving them food, water and energy”? Like they’re prisoners?

          I guess Africa is the largest “open air prison”, then, since America has been giving them food, water, and energy?

          Did you even think before writing this zinger?

            I mean, if you want to go down that rabbit hole, you certainly can dig into centuries of imperialism and oppression in Africa by outside colonial powers.

            Ah, I see. You don’t understand nuance and context.
