Umm, Micheal has a problem with history doesn’t he. Japan attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor and America responded. Subsequent attacks, 9/11 comes to mind.. got a knee jerk response, but attacked the wrong country that made a mess we /you are still recovering from. Joe is wise to try and not make the same mistakes.
If a US diplomatic compound was attacked, killing senior US personnel, how do you think we would react? It seems to me that Me. Netanyahu is letting the tail wag the dog.
Imagine that…mortal combatants engaging in obfuscation to render their adversaries moot…kinda like what the Deep State Swamp Uniparty has been doing for the past 50 years and now has decidedly unleashed the Kracken of Biden…
Biden’s policy toward a foreign Nation that is an ally should be quite different than his policy if the U.S. was attacked. The president of the U.S. does not govern Israel.
and to think…. mikie must believe it’s ok for Israel to kill over 10,000 Palestinian children and raze entire cities displacing a million people and then make sure they don’t have any food or water…. that must not be a good enough response for mikie…. but your right… it must be President Biden’s fault.. oh wait… hamas didn’t attack the U.S. … did they……???
FLASH NEWS FROM THE PRESS TENT ON THE WHITE HOUSE LAWN: The President related to the press corps how he almost won the war.
Joe: “In a box of secret documents stored in the trunk of my Corvette I found this telegram.”: “
FROM: PFC Joseph R Biden
TO: Pres. Truman
SUBJECT: Enola Gay
MESSAGE:: Don’t
When asked if he could show us the telegram Mr Biden replied: “Sorry, boys. It somehow disappeared after those FBI guys to took a bunch of boxes of stuff cluttering up my garage.”
So, Mikey, after the US assassinated an Iranian general, and the Iranians launched a missile attack on a US base in Iraq, what did Republican President Trump do next?
And by the way, what happened after nearly 300 US Marines were killed in Lebanon during the Ronnie Raygun regime?
And uhh, Ramirez … what US facilities or personnel were harmed by the Iran attack on Israel?
Ramirez is comparing the death and destruction at Pearl Harbor to the effectively blocked effort of Iran? Not to mention that Iran said they were done when everyone knew the Japanese were just getting started. How disingenuous (or stupid).
Nonsensical cartoon. The FDR administration worked wonders in transforming a weak economy and political isolationism into a remarkably strong, unified America within a few weeks of the attack. Within two years we became the strongest country on the planet, and have remained so (despite political mistakes and hubris) ever since.
Why did Isreal bomb the Iranian consulate in syria?
Did it serve any strategic purpose?
To claim that Isreal was attacked without provocation in the same way the us was attacked at pearl harbor is disingenuous at best and more appropriately is simply propaganda
Israel took Palestine with foreign help. Before that the British. Before that the Ottomans. Why oh why aren’t Palestinians content? Heck, the average American would simply accept such foreigners actions if it happened here, wouldn’t they???

That was the result that the Japanese expected, based on American behavior and capabilities at the time.
Did the Iranians attack the United States? No. They attacked Israel, in response to an Israeli attack, which was in response to….
We are STUPID if we follow Israel into war.

Hiroshima may not have been a good idea, and Nagasaki certainly wasn’t, because it wasn’t necessary and destroyed a whole city and the people in it.
No, I don’t approve of targeting civilian populations. I guess I’m old-fashioned that way.

The whole point of the cartoon is that when a country is attacked the proper response is to respond vigorously, not role over and take it.

So, Israel responded. It was not the equivalent of a PH response. They took no credit and Iran has not even acknowledged the strike.
Does that make the “eye-for-an-eye” crowd sad that they don’t (so far) get their desired carnage?

We’re the Seabees of the Navy
We can build and we can fight
We’ll pave the way to victory
And guard it day and night
And we promise that we remember

We’re the Seabees of the Navy

Sorry for your loss Mr. President, but get the story right. Thank you for your service Uncle Bosie.

So Ramirez realized he was behind on “stupid toons” and produced one.
Yep, the guy who wants to send billions to Israel and has sent them weapons and advocated for more weapons is against Israel.

Interesting cartoon.
Is he talking about Israel’s bombing of the Embassy or of Iran’s response.
I blame Hamas for the beginning of this middle east war and Israel for expanding it to include Iran.
