is not manifesting itself today

Are you blind? US sending billions of dollars to Israeli military so they can colonize Palestine and kill and displace hundreds of thousands of natives isn't enough for you? Does Joe Biden himself have to spell it out for you?

what's your verdict on West-Berlin's situation between 1961 and 1989 then?

What the fuck does a 30 year period where 140 people died in Berlin in confrontations between the US and GDR have to do with this?

US involvement? If that's your point, you could bring up the Vietnam or Iraq wars where US invasions left 60k and 300k civilians dead respectively. The Berlin situation isn't even comparable to the rest of the shit the US and Europe are responsible for.

But sure, the GDR should've just let the US and FRG keep using West Berlin as a base of operations for spying on and sabotaging the Eastern Bloc. Even knowing how that ends.

yeah, the screenreader is fine.

as a user of ad-blockers i can't check your source. but i doubt that he proposes any of your allegations.

btw, what fate do you have in mind for "native" jews and all those who had only one place to seek refuge when they were persecuted in Europe, Northern Africa, the Arab countries and Iran?

What the fuck does a 30 year period where 140 people died in Berlin in confrontations between the US and GDR have to do with this?

my idea was to point out the fact that an exclave is anything but a prison. but any allegory, be it as stupid as this one, is thankfully repeated by the couch fighters for the Palestinian cause.

Even knowing how that ends.

nah, we'd have kicked them asses to then burn in the eternal flames of the last war.
