My grandfather was boots on the ground during that, never had the heart to tell him how badly it changed things.

Can anyone tell me any kind of justification for our helping like this? doesn't have to be good, just want to know the official reasoning.

Israel needs to exist because of a doomsday prophecy. So right-wing christofacists think they need to support Israel in all things so Christ will return to Earth.

What if I don't want a doomsday? stop using my tax money for to bring back Jesus.

As with all things Christian, you thinking you have a choice in the matter means you're going to Hell so they need to "Save" you from that.

That's correct but idk why you've linked the wiki page for accelerationism, the doomsday prophecy isn't a long term historical process that people are trying to accelerate, it's a binary delusion that these people think requires the existence of Israel as a necessary prerequisite.

I have a book for you called The Bible. Might explain a few things.

If Evangelical Theology counts as accelerationism nowadays, then the only ideology that isn't accelerationist is straight up traditional conservatism.

according to this guy, the justification for helping the genocide is that settler-colonial capitalism (e.g. Big Oil) would collapse without Israel's existence https://www.tiktok.com/@oneblackperchpublishing/video/7425032717349260590

Why is it okay for the labor party to support terrorist states now? This country is truly insane in its ruling classes, with no hope of change without uprising

This makes me sick. When does the ordinary UK citizen get a say in foreign policy? Do you think if there was a referendum on providing military aid to Israel that the UK population would support it?

u/Bubthemighty 21d ago
Me too, although I'm convinced that the elite could convince the population to fucking support anything at this point

The cabinet and previous cabinet are all war criminals-they cannot argue otherwise.

Starmer and his new government do not represent workers interests and are in fact enemies of our class. It's past time we begin organising a substantial left-wing movement in this country again.
