    I don’t think boots on the ground would be necessary if we actually sanctioned Israel, stopped providing arms, made them a pariah. But if it came to it and that was the only way to prevent more bloodshed, then we should do it.

    Again, not going to happen man. They are America’s strongest ally in the region, *AND one of our strongest allies in the entire world. We’ll never do this. You’re living in a fantasy land. So we should just stop here. You can keep wishing but you aren’t looking at the facts and reality. Goodbye

      You ignore everything else so you can pretend you’re being “realistic” and everyone with morals is “living in a fantasy land.” Ronald fucking Reagan suspended weapons delivery to them so let’s not pretend it’s so impossible.

      Reagan not only supported UNSC Resolution 487, which condemned the attack, but he also criticized the raid publicly and suspended the delivery of advanced F-16 fighter jets to Israel. 

      And since you’re just ignoring anything inconvenient to you, I’ll just leave this question here again…

      Again WHY do you think everyone should bend over backwards to do what Israel wants “for peace” but not make any concessions for Hamas? Don’t you understand that peace requires both sides to actually agree?
