I’m not disagreeing with you: both wars are/were unjustified. I’m speaking more to the difference in intent that’s on display. Nobody in the US ever intended to drive all the Iraqi people out, move white Americans in and make it the 51st state. That kind of ethnic cleansing is clearly Israel’s intent with Gaza, and seemingly with Lebanon.
Cue republicans immediately trying to shift the discussion to how inappropriate it is to do literally anything at all relating to Donald Trump’s many indictments while the election is this close at hand, because as the republican candidate for president he should be above the law. You know, in the name of fairness.
