“We want peace” while simultaneously launching the deadliest strike on Lebanon ever and committing acts of terror on a daily basis and committing genocide. Ugh your eyes bleed reading about US and Israeli lies

War and a Scary Enemy are needed for two reasons:

1. To justify why we can't have nice things. Healthcare? Infrastructure? Education? We don't have time for that now, don't you know we gotta fight Saddam/Milosevic/Bin Laden/Saddam again/Ghadaffi/Assad/ISIS/Putin/Hamas/Houthis/ad nauseam.

2. To justify crackdowns on civil liberties. You and your namby-pamby Bill of Rights, you hate our freedom! What, are you on the side of the fascists/communists/Islamicists/Russians/ ad nauseam?
