You're being a dick. Not all Americans support American policy, yet you're wishing evil to befall them no matter.
Dumbfucks like you make me regret the American lives spent rescuing Australia in 1942.
How the fuck am I "being a dick"? I just want what the US military does to other governments and civilians done to the US government and US civilians.
You don't seem to understand the concept of what I'm trying to get across to you. The Israeli occupation in the Levant is no different to if an invading force decided to occupy the United States and then force all the pre-existing North Americans out into tiny reserves, and enslave those who want to live alongside the white invaders. And while you're at it, pass legislation that makes them non-citizens, or citizens with fewer rights.
Oh wait, that already happened, didn't it? A similar thing happened in Australia (although we never enslaved the Indigenous people); and that was because at the time we were following the conventional 18th/19th century wisdom of colonialism and assimilation. Under that world-view the rights of the indigenous populations didn't matter. We now know that such policies are very harmful for people.
Now, if you compare countries by how they treat their indigenous peoples, you find something very interesting. In the vast majority of the world they refuse to recognise the indigenous occupants of the land; so we actually don't know a lot about many indigenous cultures that continue to be oppressed. Almost every country (if not every) in the world has indigenous people - the Māori in New Zealand are probably among the best treated indigenous people anywhere in the world. You have other countries like Canada, Australia, China, India, the USA, and Japan that recognise their indigenous populations and give them some rights, but on a scale of who treats their indigenous populations better - you have places like Canada and Australia, you have the USA that kind of looks at them as a "problem", but gives them some support, and you have places like Japan that unapologetically treat their indigenous people like utter shit.
And then you have Israel. They believe they are the rightful owners of the land because they are Jewish; but the Palestinians believe they are the rightful owners because they have been indigenous to the land for 12 centuries. This whole conflict was started by the UK invading Palestine in 1917. If not for that colonial invasion Palestine would today be a united State.
Anyway, my point is by continuing to support Israel, the United States is supporting them to oppress the indigenous Arab population of the land. And that is exactly what Israel has been doing from the start - they are displacing the indigenous population so they can possess the land for themselves. The way they did this was by purchasing the land from Arabs, putting it into a fund (Jewish National Fund) with the proviso that the land can never be sold back or even leased to the Palestinian people. It's a policy of deliberate oppression, expansion, and conquest. The problem the Palestinian people have is that they were not supported by other Arab States.
So you can't fucking tell me with a straight face that America doesn't deserve to feel the same oppression that they have bestowed upon others. I'll be very happy when someone invades America (again) and displaces the present inhabitants and confines them to tiny camps and settlements, and maybe that will stop them from instigating wars everywhere else.
