He can make both those statements. He should absolutely not be comparing them.
The decision to nuke japan was based on factors entirely different than any possible factor to nuke gaza.
In any sane world, senators suggesting dropping war crimes all over another country would be immediately removed
“So when we were faced with destruction as a nation after Pearl Harbor...."
The US was never faced with destruction during World War II.
Obviously you haven't seen that fine documentary The Man in the High Castle.
Or the one about a post-Trump presidency, The Handmaiden’s Tale
Hey now. The threat of destruction was just as bad as the actual destruction across Europe and Asia.
Americans and clutching at pearls name a better duo lol
Americans and shooting people, both at home and abroad
Americans and clutching at Pearl Harbor
Let's drop Lindsey Graham on Gaza instead of a nuke.
Haven't Palestinians been through enough? You'd make them clean up Lyndsey Graham, too?
Cannabalism is against Islam, otherwise I’d say that at least they’d finally get some food in Gaza.
Imagine how much better the world would be if there was just a simple process of psychological screening for would-be politicians, and psychopaths were barred from holding office.
Casually arguing for breaking the taboo on using nuclear weapons.
Forget Gaza, this is how human civilization ends.
We have been saying that Israel is a moral and legal hazard to the entire world as it rallied its allies to throw out all resemblance of a rule based international order recognizing such basic human rights like not being slaughtered and having access to basic food, water and medicine.
This should disqualify him from ever holding office again. I know it won't, but it should.
You mean it should lock him behind bars for life.
Ya know, if post Civil War reconstruction had actually happened and we'd de-confederated the South like we de-nazi'd Germany and Japan the GOP wouldnt exist today.
Well, kinda, since the parties swapped roles in the Southern Strategy as a response to the civil rights movements, back then the democrats were the overtly racist ones. So we could assume the GOP would still exist but it would look nothing like the "modern" (hah) version.
Yes, the nuance of the party swap in the 60s is lost on most people.
Thats how my ultra-maga relatives get to prpudly post on FB how theyre the party of Lincoln and in the very next post proclaim their hatred anything farther left than the taliban.
"We're the party of Lincoln, that's why everything needs to be named after a Confederate general. State's rights."
And we’d probably have actual human rights laws in America, instead of means-tested, drug-tested government aid.
Ahh yes, dropping nuclear weapons right next door, risking fallout in your own territory and pissing off every country around you, as well as all your allies. Why not?
How dare you question the blinding brilliance that is Lindsey? I'm sure his masterplan accounts for things like inciting a global nuclear war with some clever solution that isn't just waiting it out in a congressional bunker with all his cowardly friends while we all die horribly, right?
Israel wouldn’t do that. They want to give the beachfront property to American politicians as a “gift that’s totally not a bribe”
Would be such a shame if a stray rocket hit Ted Cruz's beachfront house while he's on vacation 🙈
“I want you to use my words against me. If there’s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said let’s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination."
Only thing this guy deserves to hear for the rest of his life.
Indifference to human life totally on brand for the gop
This is not indifference. This is a call for genocide. And a genocide at Ausschwitz proportions.
I'm from in Belgium, and have colleagues from countries from both sides of the second world war. The carpet bombing of cities is still talked about every now and then. It's still remembered as one of the worst tragedies during that war (apart from the obvious), and the scars it left in many family trees still pain the people to this day.
Hearing stories from Gaza and the Donbas always remind me of the stories I used to hear from my grandfather, and I believed we left those war tactics behind in the last century. It's absolutely insane hearing an allied country to ours debating using those tactics again.
How is it even legal to call for the murder of so many people using one of the most atrocious weapons humanity has invented....but if one were to suggest to apply a guillotine to this person for doing so, they would be in severe legal trouble?
So did we ever find out if Biden can use seal team six to kill political opponents?
I’m shocked! Who could have guessed this slimy invertebrate would have zero regard for anyone but himself!?
It’s wild that if anyone were to suggest killing Lindsey Graham they would probably be arrested and called a terrorist. But he can just casually advocate for nuking a densely populated area that is inhabited mostly by civilians and a bunch of brain dead morons will still vote for him.
The only thing Lindsey likes more then male prostitutes is killing POC. 🐞🐞🐞
Where did they find this absolute muppet? Does he not even know what fallout is?
Nuking anything is never the right decision unless you're heating up some leftovers. There is no such thing as a justified mass destruction weapon.
Senator Graham has always been a pro war, pro bombing, neo conservative.
Republicans are ghouls.
What a brilliant fucking suggestion, he obviously thought it through and is a very smart man.
Great, now ChatGPT thinks he’s smart.
