Why No Israel Flags?

Where was the republican outrage when this flag was flying in the Capitol?
That's a democrat flag. Strange that republicans are so fond of it.
Only critique I have here, is again with the point about electing Hamas. Yes, Hamas won ONE election…nearly 20 years ago. They also haven’t allowed any elections since.
I get the overall point with that, just annoyed the way it’s mentioned because it implies Palestinians have been voting for Hamas on a regular basis.
The average age of Palestinians is 19. 40% of Gaza is 14 years or younger.
maybe some folks don’t want to make themselves targets of anti Jewish nut jobs. From either side of the political spectrum. There are morons with some really passionate feelings. With the Ukraine situation not so much.

Valid point,.. But I would have to ask, where are all the Palestinians that should now be joining Israel in the fight against Hamas?,.. Hamas should be running for their phucking lives right now...
Why tho would they join the side that’s killing them?
Rationally, that seems obvious. But it’s hard to be rational when bombs and bullets are killing your friends and families.
Another issue is Israel has poor PR management. The World Kitchen fiasco aftermath. Was a master class in what not to do.
"PR management" is a decidedly more difficult endeavor when the bulk of the media holds a bias.
Well you’re not wrong. Guess the Jews who own all the media need to give them their marching orders
Ukraine is actively defending themselves. Israel is exacting retribution with impunity.
Seriously? I thought everyone knew this. It's kind of sad you don't. No, they're not currently part of NATO. That said, if Ukraine falls to Russia, NATO will be shaken to its core. As will the trust NATO had in the U.S. Russia would gain MASSIVE natural resources and more embolden to march on other NATO countries.
This. The Ukraine flag flyers wouldn't be flying their Ukraine flags next to their pride signs and BLM signs in their yards if Trump was president. It's a political statement.
Does your neighbor ever fly a U.S. flag on occasion? I think the prerequisite to flying any flag, should be to at least fly the American flag from time to time.
I do know that they aren't part of NATO. Which made me wonder if you knew that after you said "Destabilization of NATO counties means increased defense spending in the long run. " in regards to Ukraine being attacked.
Mine flies 1) Because I already have one from doing a lot of teaching about Ukraine and 2) I have a lot of friends there.
i fly my flags on my big ass pickup when im passing on the shoulder to break check someone 200 feet in front of me.
It's pretty awesome that we live in a free country and don't have to fly the flag that you think we should, isn't it?
@Jimmy McGill let us know when you put up your pole and if you put an Israel flag, please and thank you.
Palestinians should join with Israelis to purge Hamas from Gaza and create a free society for themselves,.. That's why.
That makes perfect, logical sense.
Now go tell Palestinians they should join the side that’s been bombing and shooting them for months.
Israel needs to make a gesture here at least if you’re serious.
Israel hasn't been intentionally bombing and shooting Palestinians, Palestinians are simply getting caught in the crossfire,... When you find yourself trapped between your enemy and someone who is trying to eliminate your enemy, you either get out of the way or you join in the fight,... I'm not entirely convinced that the average Palestinian is the innocent Hamas hater that they are so frequently portrayed to be...
Yes. I believe if Ukraine falls to Russia, NATO countries will be less stable at more at risk of attack.
Do you disagree?
No more susceptible if Ukraine falls. You have to remember that the Obama Administration played a role in fomenting a coup of a duly elected president in Ukraine.
I think Ukraine was attacked specifically due tot he fact they are not in NATO. Attacking a NATO country comes with much steeper consequences and Russia knows this.
i mean...why doesn't every country suffering under a repressive govenermnt simply stop being repressed and free themselves?
Can't speak for that poster, but I disagree. Putin is a bully. He seeks to overcome weakness. Putin won't attack a NATO country, and if he takes Ukraine he will be surrounded by 4 additional NATO countries. Putin fears NATO.
It's naïve to think that any money we give Ukraine can do anything but delay the inevitable. That being that Russia could do anything it wanted to Ukraine if it it desired to do so.
Or at least join in the fight when someone else shows up to free your ass maybe?...
Didn’t say they had been.
Seriously, you can’t at least understand why people in Gaza would side with Israel, who has been bombing and killing them (not on purpose, but the end result is the same)?
Agree to disagree. I agree that Putin is a bully who picks on the weakest link. But after he gets Ukraine and all of its resources, I believe he'd pick on the next weakest link, be it a NATO country or not.
We won the cold war by outspending the Russians. Why would this be any different?
