I don't think ppl care too much about whether or not they're best pals. It's the fact Biden is selling them weapons and trying to get congress to give them 14 billion in aid

Nothing more American than bombing the same place and expecting a different result

Still a good way to persecute the undesirables. Plus you're underestimating the impact of propaganda

What kind of shit is this?!? They should be studying!! /s

In all seriousness this was a bygone conclusion. Korean (honestly most Asian countries) society places WAY to much emphasis on education to an obsessive degree. Your middle school entrance exams shouldn't dictate your entire life. For an 11 year old to experience that kind of pressure im surprised theres not cases of adolescent PTSD from scoring low on exams.

Well they're negotiating over it right now so clearly it's has limited the IDF in that way

Bystander just means they don't subscribe to either side. You can both be a bystander and victim.....

They're the bystanders

The people on here pretending that continuing the war in any way helps the situation are sickening.

No they're saying that giving up your only leverage is a stupid idea. This is about the politics of war and negotiation. The only thing keep Palestinian and Hamas from being paved over into a parking lot are the hostages. But it's not like the IDF gives a fuck about the hostages anyway

Hamas started this war for propaganda. They'll never let those poor female hostages tell of their horrors - that will look bad.

Everyone knows Hamas is bad. How many ppl do you see saying, "I stand with hamas". The ongoing opinion is there is no good guy in this. Only civilian (mostly Palestinian civilians) victims

but I'm still a bit surprised to hear that so many kids do that.

If you know anything about Korean society I don't see how you can be surprised.

None of this should be new. Just like America Europe was ripe for right-wing radicalization. Islamophobia, homophobia, racism (ESPECIALLY against Romani) has always been a thing. All that was needed is some kindling to be added to the embers.

Western Europe will blame the East (rightfully so because they are racist and homophobic as FUCK) but go to a Football match in Spain, Germany, Italy, or France and you'll hear some vile shit that is completely normalized.

We're Americans. We don't quit just because we're wrong. We just keep doing the wrong thing until it turns out right!
