Why worry about Israel attacking a US ship while pretending they are Egyptian in order to draw the US in a wider war? It’s not like they’ve been shown to be spying on the US, or have any recent evidence that Netanyahu’s government funds enemies of Israel in order to bolster political support.

This is all a big nothing-burger of millions of lives at stake. 😬

NocturnalMorning,

Do we really need to use the world nothing burger? It makes you sound incredibly inept.

Viking_Hippie,

Moistcritical? Is that when you roll a nat 20 with sweaty hands?

Thanks for that! I watched his pinned video and I don’t think that " but hey, it’s Hollywood! It’s a dog eat ass world and I gave it a shot!" is gonna leave my brain for a long time 🤣

CreateProblems,

Gatekeeping the evolution of language: the type of internet comment everyone loves the most.

(This comment is sarcasm. Your gatekeeping adds nothing of value to the conversation.)

Speculater,

I liked it.

I agree, it attenuates the poignancy of the subject through facetiousness

Come on, nothing burger is one of the better ones the kids these days have come up with. I give Nothing Burger the Gen X seal of who gives a fuck what you think. Let people like things.

Vode_An,

A quote from Dean Rusk, former US Secretary of State:

I was never satisfied with the Israeli explanation. Their sustained attack to disable and sink Liberty precluded an assault by accident or some trigger-happy local commander. Through diplomatic channels we refused to accept their explanations. I didn’t believe them then, and I don’t believe them to this day. The attack was outrageous.

TWeaK,

They also tried to say that they asked the US to keep their ships away or at least tell them where the ships were. However, they didn’t ask this until after the boat was sunk.

they also confirmed it was American and attacked anyway.

what a great ally.

blindbunny,
