I think it’s finally time to restore the Mandate of Palestine:
- Israelis get to live there but not their own special state
- Palestinians get to live there but not their own special state
- Everybody gets to hate the British, as is tradition
- Brits finally get a colony back, it’ll lift their mood after the brexit disaster
Unironically would be a better option if it was on the table.
That’s how bad this has gotten, guys. I’m pro-British Empire vis-a-vis the Middle East.
One-state solution time. Bring back the Roman Empire.
Can you imagine the Italians running everything? Sure there’d be plenty of good pasta and wine worldwide but I doubt we’d stay productive with three-hour wine lubricated lunch breaks every day
I say the USA needs to have a proper go at an empire. People could serve in the legion (navy) for citizenship and everything
I say the USA needs to have a proper go at an empire.
Please no. As Teddy Roosevelt once noted, we lack the interest in it. Let’s just not.
Hard to argue we don’t have the appetite after spending our first 150 years conquering territory roughly double the size of the Roman Empire at its peak
That was more ethnic cleansing than traditional imperialism. Not that I disagree that describing it as imperialism is valid, but it’s not what TR was talking about. The point was that Americans lack serious interest in foreign affairs or a desire for distant prestige projects. Our every overseas acquisition, temporary or permanent, has been marked by a noted uncertainty of what to actually do with any of it. Not that that makes any of the folk getting crushed happier, but it does reflect a lack of interest in the whole topic.
Perhaps we just need to generate a little excitement.
Gladiators worked nicely for the Romans, maybe we could generate similar hype with a reality show to choose the governor of each new province. I think “Love Island, Argentinian Governor Edition” would be a real hit.

But what about muh prophecy?
Is Hezbollah holding hostages? Or just in a coalition government with the christian democracy party?
you’re mixing up hamas and hezbollah, and if you want to go into rabbit hole shitshow that is lebanese politics start with Taif agreement
I am referring to the meme which has the flag of hezbollah holding the flag of lebanon hostage.
well it’s gotta be more about how every lebanese govt since 2006 refused to implement UNSC resolution 1701 (that one about disarming hezbollah) and how it turned out for them
I know this is a serious topic but I stared at “UNSC” for way too long thinking “It’s not United Nations Space Command from Halo… so what is it?”
United Nations Security Council, got it
Good luck disarming a group with (supposedly) more weapons and fighters than your actual army.
If they had done it, I suspect Israel would have rolled over the border long ago.
Israel did control a part of Lebanon for a bit.
They only left because they were taking a lot of losses.
Awww, the Enterprises model number and then its a dud
Pretty much. There are tons of zionists mascarading as Lebanese who claim that Israel is being precise and having minimal civilian casualties…
Very little shitposting going on in this thread.
It was my mistake, I made the comic too credible. 😞
Hey it’s my man pug jesus! Who’s the flag with the Christmas tree star on it Pug Jesus? Must be super into Christmas and jesus!
I dunno that they’re into it, but oh boy, are Christians into them!
