>b-but it's based when Israel does it

There is no moral difference between Israel and Russia, or Israel and North Korea. People with sub-80 IQs will look at their magnificent cities and military and think that it's a sign of civilization, not realizing that it came out of their pocket. The only truly impressive thing about Israel is their ability to manipulate people through weaponized holocaust guilt. At first it was just propaganda, but in the last few months the mask has slipped and it's increasingly apparent that criticizing Israel is a an actual criminal offense in so-called Western democracies, and that fealty to Israel is more important to politicians than their own people.
