I would agree based on current stability but number of enemies really isn't logical.

They did it because a nation should have their own control. If they want to build nukes they should be able to. For their own defense. If a civil war took place and the nukes fell into the wrong hands how would you know? You can't know until certain behavior is expressed. Can a nation just out of the blue just launch a nuclear attack? Yes but it is that probable? No but this can happen now so it's not anything that isn't a current threat now

So what's the biggest issue the people have with the current regime? I'm glad religion keeps them from certain evils but what evils are they doing that seems to evade Islam or that they remain blinded to and refuse to apply Islam to?

This is the kind of fear mongering that led to our going into Iraq and removing Hussein. So be careful with that. Could end up a mistake.

Correct that's why I said it's not fair to tell him to fix his country. What via coup? Come on.

That's really not fair because it is a very limited democracy there with strong authoritarian qualities. It really is a dictatorship masked as a democracy. So to say to the civilians fix their country is laughable when you have a rigged system.

Are you kidding they love him heheh. But seriously I think that's a long way away. Israel didn't attack Iran, Iran attacked Israel so let's not jump the gun. If it became a wider struggle i think the move of removing the current regime would be more of an endgame than an up front strategy like it was with Iraq.

Yes. It doesn't matter how awakening happens.

l There will be pros and cons to weigh. Iraq is it's own situation. And there you have the false intelligence of WMD tainting the US' decision. But what if that intelligence had been correct. Also you end, in that case, a brutal dicatorship responsible for human rights abuses and a force in the region that caused destabilization. Yes it could give rise to groups like ISIS and internal turmoil leading to loss of life. At the end of the day did removing him from power make things better? Well, what would you do about Trump if he got in power? Your views on Trump are no different than @Atb210201 are only he's living it.

Its him trying to play Nostradamus. Funny thing about Nostradamus is he predicted WWIIi would start by an emboldened leader in the Middle East. Ironic if it ended up being Netanyahu Everyone thought it was going to be Hussein.

When you awaken one of the realizations will be that you are completely and utterly alone as a God. This is more shocking to God than it is terrifying. But it is both. God isn't lonely - it just terrifies God in finite form to realize that God is alone imagining all beings. And that all Beings are itself. It terrifies God because it is a massive recontextualizaton of everything it has ever known and now it has to live in that same reality that has been recontextualized by awakening. So it has no other choice but to go back to sleep for the sake of the dream. There is a lucidity there but it's not the same as knowing it Absolutely and directly.

@AlienGeometry are you just wanting drama? Leo's views are changing on the regular. And hopefully we all are evolving the same way. Plus he hasn't done psychedelics in a while 😉 In the Absolute sense @Someone here is correct. When you awaken for yourself you won't be able to prove this to anyone. That's probably the hardest part but it also makes the most sense. If everyone is you then there isn't anyone to convince.

@Heaven You are buying way too much into right wing propaganda my friend. If you believe that there wouldn't be war had Republicans stayed in office. It was just how time unfolded. You could just as easily say that Trump's presidency had no wars because of the previous administration.

Well stand by because WWIII is a lot closer than it was even a few months ago. But alas, this attack from Iran was foiled by the Israeli's defenses with the help of it's allies....it's allies...so the US is supporting Israel but does not support further proactive aggression. They do not support a counter strike on Iran now. However I think the chips are already on the table - the sides have been chosen and for good reason. This is so obvious i can't believe i have to say this but the US is not simply going to drop Israel as an ally. If it did that it would be perceived as supporting Iran and it doesn’t for reasons it has already expressed. So ultimately it will come down to Iran backing down or a more wider struggle. So as far as criticizing the US i think you can't because they are Israel's ally - they can't force Israel's hand in this even Vance said that in the debate for you right wingers. And there are allies on both sides so I'm sure Iran would do whatever if it had a superpower behind them. God knows what. So why don't they? Don't hate the player hate the game.

Well thats the question, can they?

Here we go.....

Agreed. Israel has stated it simply wants to change the balance of power. We will see if this turns into a wider war but overall i think it was a good move on their part. Now it puts the pressure back on Iran.

Well - they would also have to be or become anti-semitic...what's interesting about Hitler is that i don't believe he was anti-semitic from the beginning. I think something changed in him possibly while in Vienna before his time in politics or when he first got into politics- influenced by the political parties of that time. He then began to formulate his ideas of a master race. And the eradication of the Jews. Which he put into his auto-biography. But there was a lot of anti-semitism towards Jews from certain groups in the early 1900's in Vienna and i think he was influenced by that. But even then Jews didn't have it bad and he even associated with some Jews as a young man. So this anti-semitic conponent along with the strong, hypnotizing rhetoric and public speaking not only fired his followers up, but also himself,and he fell further and further into this deluded mindset. So while there isn't something special about him, we aren't likely to see something like Nazi Germany for a long, long time, hopefully never.

Fuck you guys

Did you read Mein Kampf? I am not debating who is a better person. I think the better question is who is more deluded. Hitler would have the upper hand here, it remains to be seen about Netanyahu. But I doubt he would reach that level of delusion.

No just a guy who sits at the Passover seder each year to talk about how Egypt enslaved us and we got out. So for once we are on the offensive. Why not?

Silly. I get your point about some of things happening in Gaza and there is corruption - but you will find that on all sides. But to compare this to Hitler is silly IMO.

@Raze dude- we are talking about Hitler ordering the extinction of the entire jewish people - leaving to the death of six million Jews. How can you compare this to one family being killed here?

Degrees. Exactly. And Israel's leadership is no where near that degree. At least not yet. When Israel tells their occupied countries' women and children that they are going for a train ride only to line thém up for a firing squad then I think you can start to talk about this. But Israel right now is simply trying to subdue it's foes and declare dominance in the region because it's tired of the constant threat of attack on their homeland and civilians. It's a far cry from Nazi Germany. Ethnic cleansing isn't even on the table yet.

Jesus are you guys really comparing this guy to Hitler? Fuck it. All bets are off I guess. I think its nuts that you guys would even entertain that .
