ZSIS - Zionist State in Iraq and Syria

Seeing this move should've immediately sent Hezbollah to break the ceasefire, at least if they're interested in not letting Israeli forces flank their metaphorical Maginot line by going through a neutral-but-defenseless country.

Hezbollah accepting a ceasefire without Gaza meant they have been completely defeated.

[–] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

Pretty much.

So who are the judges, you ask? Who are they all! How to call those people, countries that invade foreign and countries, which have their own way of life, traditions, way of thinking, a different understanding of life... I want to ask

Why do you always say: dictator, murderer, enslaver, etc. What can you theorists know about this? Do you even know how people lived under Saddam Hussein, the most developed medicine, complete tolerance of religion, there were no Islamic states, Houthis, etc., one of the highest standards of living and its quality in the region, the same thing happened in Libya during the time of Gaddafi, Muammar's state flourished and what is happening now in both states? Islamist's, states torn to shreds, complete lawlessness... Should I continue... China?! How is this not a dictatorship? And that your computers are made in China, iPhones, cars... nothing?!

Were you in Syria in 1995? Of course not and you don't know or wouldn't want to know how they lived, and they lived very well, better than now, for example, the Baltic countries, etc. Dictator, dictator... You have to think sometimes!

Tell me more about how great rule under those genociders was.

If anyone wants to know how to spot when someone has a clear and extreme bias, one can spot it very clearly in the comment above.

When someone lists a group's (religion, race, ethnicity) existence as a negative along with things like "lawlessness, state torn to shreds", you now have a firm understanding of who they're willing to dehumanize to make their points.

Before Gadaffi, the largest portion of the Libyan economy came from scrapping abandoned WWII era tanks. It was absolutely miserably poor and underdeveloped.

[–] pescetarian@lemmy.ml 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Was there? Have you seen all this yourself?! Don't talk nonsense. Еverything was fine with them, they lived as they could and as they wanted... What now? You are the judge who gave you the right to judge.

[–] Bartsbigbugbag@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah Gadaffi did a lot for the nation, he was genuinely a revolutionary change in Libyan conditions.
