    Imperialist and colonizer nations are truly sick.

    You see when US imperialists scream about China being a threat in our supply chains it’s because THEY have put hardware implants targeting others in supply chains they control and as they are good and China is evil China must be willing to do the same to them even more-so. Same with this kind of shit. They look at this and don’t think “my goodness are we the baddies?”, they instead have a freakout of “what if our enemies do this to us? omg, China is gonna use their products to do terrorism” despite zero evidence the Chinese or Russians, etc would ever sink to their level or have ever done so.

    Again and again throughout history westerners do the most reprehensible, terroristic, war-criminal shit to others and despite their enemies having no history of doing that assume they’re just waiting to do the same to them the second they get the chance. Projection.


    I’ve heard the axis of resistance is getting fed up with waiting but I’m not sure they’ll act even on this.

    Oh sure they’ll lob some missiles but they’re stuck in a situation where there is an unhinged and unstable apartheid colony whose leader faces possible prison, certainly loss of power the moment this “crisis” is over so must keep escalating to keep it going along-with the widespread condemnation of them for carrying out a genocide meaning they want to play the victim, they want a war against them to break out so they can cry for pity and the censorship dial in the west can be turned up even further with ever more hysterical cries of anti-semitism for any criticism of “israel” while “they’re fighting for their lives and existence against jew haters who attack them for no reason”. So it wants to draw the US into a war, wants a regional war, wants a chance to crush and put down at least one element arrayed against it permanently.

    Many feel however if they don’t get this war they look increasingly unhinged and become increasingly isolated and the bad PR just keeps on building beyond the ability of the west to tamp down. However there’s a real question what the end-game of that waiting play is. The west isn’t going to get ashamed soon enough to save the Palestinian people or Gaza, they’re really all in on defending the zionist regime and screaming down any criticism as anti-semitism while downplaying it even existing outside of a small group of “extremists” via their media. The US clearly isn’t willing to reign in the zionist regime. Trump or Harris neither is going to change things. And the fact is the zionist regime can keep escalating, they can bomb daycares and children’s hospitals and just keep upping the ante all the way to using a nuclear weapon if they really want to in order to attempt to provoke a response.

    So if they do nothing they invite more attacks and attempts to goad them to draw the US in. If they respond they risk more escalation and war with the US involved. “israel” is doing salami-slicing tactics, they do something that demands a response, perhaps several things and claim they were for self-defense then sit back and wait, let things cool just a little then go back in for more, never letting the heat really drop.

    The negotiations are a smokescreen for the zionist regime to carry out their genocide under yet it also gives cover for these actors to do nothing, to not escalate to war, to claim they need to wait and do it this way.

    I will say one thing going for the “wait” camp is that unrest in the settler-colony is rising. Mass protests are occurring right now and if that can continue and be magnified it may be possible to collapse it or bring it to its knees and force it to stop the genocide and all other hostilities but that’s a big if.
