It is amazing how Israel buckles under any amount of pressure after over a year of being told that Israel could continue on their own and the president couldn't do anything to change it.
Very informative to know that hundreds of thousands are dead because the democrats simply refused to do anything to stop it other than briefing the press about how sad they are about it.
26th article of the week about how Biden is super duper mad this time guys, he's totally gonna think about doing something.
Ofc they buckle under pressure, they send tanks ahead of infantry and airstrike civilians who can't fight back. Their entire modus operandi is "pls don't hurt me I am a smol bean" but also "mega badass who can do anything" but also "don't criticize us we're the most moral army" but also "eat shit and die, we're going to build a hotel on the beach over your childrens' corpses" but also "campus protestors on the other side of the planet are doing psychic damage to our troops >:" but also "our troops are so competent they reach the rank of 5 star general by the age of 28 and also invented the cherry tomato"
I believe the kids call it "being tsundere"
Traditional fascist "our enemies are laughably weak" and "our enemies are so strong we have to brutalise everyone around us", and being unable to tell true believers (who actually believe their spoken words) and cynics (who are just signalling loyalty to one another) means that they wind up just being pretty unable to assess the world around them.
