edit before you point out that it's not ordering americans to take to the streets to celebrate:

yes, you are correct. the point here is that biden released a statement referring to the carpet bombing of a lebanese suburb that killed hundreds of people in order to target nasrallah as bringing "a measure of justice for his many victims."

similar to the scenes witnessed throughout the United States after President Obama ordered the raid to kill Osama Bin Laden in 2011.

Brandon was trying to subliminally implant the idea in the idiot American public brainpan that there was an equivalence between the murder of Sinwar by an occupying invader force and that special moment in 2011 that we all shared and remember so fondly when the US let our largest adult sons fly around the world, crash a multi-million dollar helicopter into a wall, giving up its engineering capabilities to china, and then beat up a sick old man living in an ISI detention center. Literally a joke country.

Edit: and got a bunch of kids sick with polio. Very cool.

Oh no worries i was just curious to the event being referred to. I figured it related to gaza/israel somehow. The issue was which particular event you meant we have a bevy of options.

Hilariously the justification of 100s of Americans by these groups over 4 decades is overshadowed by how many aid workers Israel has killed in this conflict in a matter of months.
