      Sovereignty of a nation and an ethnic group’s right not to be genocided by their neighbor isn’t something worth spending money on?

        genocided

        Liberals really have successfully robbed the word genocide of any and all meaning through over use.

        An act that has actively made it easier for Israel to commit an actual genocide, incidentally.

          @brain_in_a_box @Rakonat

          I cannot agree with this statement.

          Consider how many genocides have occurred since the 1948 convention and its ratification in 1951. Now consider that three have been legally recognised – and led to trials – under the convention:

          Rwanda in 1994, Bosnia (and the 1995 Srebrenica massacre), and Cambodia under the 1975-9 Pol Pot regime.

          Israel will have its day to atone for its behavior. They have become what they despise.

            Israel will have its day to atone for its behavior.

            They’ve been doing it for decades. The day of atonement will only come when the liberal ghouls currently protecting them - who believe that genocide simply means “when our enemies do something bad” - are categorically forced out of power.

      If someone invaded your country, would you still have the same opinion? If Trump invaded your country(assuming you are not an american), would you still say “why are we spending billions to fight Trump, when we could have spent them on education and housing?”.

        If my country was a Nazi shithole then I’d have the same opinion yes. If my country was one of the most corrupt states in the world and run by a puppet fascist government of the USA, then yes, I’d have the same opinion. if my country’s puppet rulers did everything they could to provoke an invasion and then cry about it then I wouldn’t have any sympathy.

        USA has active military bases with nukes pretty much all over europe, technically they already invaded my country. There’s hundreds of USA military planes alone flying over europe daily. If russia, china or anyone else would give 100 billions to any corrupted fascist government in europe that would still be a bad thing because ultimately it wouldn’t change anything for people.
