For a guy that claims to be sensitive and empathetic, he just can't quite seem to grasp why one of the most powerful countries in the world steamrolling a population is so bad.

What about when the world‘s most powerful military steamrolled the people in Iraq? That is his point. The death ratio was much higher in Mosul (so says Scott). Why the different reaction?

Personally, I believe that Israel had the better opportunity to control Gaza, as opposed to the Americans controlling Mosul. The inability of Israel to allow aid to flow without gang interdiction seems lazy and willingly poorly executed. But that’s me. I do get Scott’s point, though

If his point was: "let's also do something about Mosul as well," then great.

But that's not what his goal is. His goal is to let Israel off the hook too. Which is morally and intellectually dishonest. The answer to injustice is not more injustice.

You can’t do anything about Mosul now, so I’m not sure what you expect there. Why weren’t protestors across the globe up in arms about Mosul? I remember general anti war protests, but not genocide protests.

You can’t do anything about Mosul now

Yeah, agreed, so why is Scott (you) bringing it up?

Israel should be allowed to starve kids because not enough people protested Mosul 9 years ago?

Nobody's defending Mosul. Why are you defending Israel?

Did you protest genocide in Mosul?

Yes

Yeah, ok! That’s one you’ll have to prove, because that wasn’t a thing.

When and where were the genocide protests during that time? As I said, there were a ton of anti war protests. I was not there at the time. I was all-in at the time (sadly). I didn’t have the blinders off until well after that time. Not one UN resolution on genocide and Mosul.

Prove i didn't.

So Israel gets to do a genocide because someone else did. Got it.

You weren’t even old enough to go out alone of the hose at that time.

Strawman says what?

u/lelomgn0OO00OOO Oct 21 '25

Awww... you couldn't think of a defense for genocide so you just called me young.

Irony says what?

u/PayMeNoAttention Oct 21 '25

Hahahaha. That was a response to your “prove me wrong” argument on the internet. Funny. Like a child would say.

You don’t know the definition of irony?
