Hey!

Not very cool to drag dogs into genocide and genocide enablers!

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 29 points 1 year ago

I'd have picked Borzois for Russia. Look at these weirdos

[-] ganryuu@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you for that, I love how weird they are!

America has the UK

By evidence of my other comments to this post I enjoy mocking Israel. That being said; Israel is an extension of US interests. We often confuse the interest of the working class of the US as being "the US".

The "dogs" of the US for Israel are not the the capitalist class of the US. Their interests very much align with those of the Zionist state.

The material interests of the citizens of the imperial core are of no interest to an Imperialist state with no working class movement to resist it.

My point being. Israel is not the cause of the degrading conditions of the US. It is a result of the strong bourgeois dictatorship we live under.

It's important to understand the material reasons for why our country keeps supporting a genocidal project. Especially, as we see a shift in the "scapegoat" move from immigrants and Muslims to include other groups as well. It's important to know that there is no "scapegoat" (duh that's the meaning of the term but I digress). The US is doing exactly what it's ruling class sees as the best for its material interests.

So, do not fool yourself into thinking the empire of the US is making a good or moral decision even if it does distance itself from Israel in its words. Israel IS the US. They are not different from one another. There is no puppet master controlling US policians. The material interest of the ruling class align with supporting the Zionist project that is an extension of US imperialism.

ADL or APAIC. These are just methods for US capitalist to fund their interests. These organizations aren't "controlling" the US. They are their to ensure the interest of this colonial project are met.

There are literally 2 groups of people with aligned interests declaring them one is simple confusion. APAIC is literally a largish part of the alignment because whilst the government budget runs into trillions single digit millions are dispositive in the continuation of a lawmakers career which is why they spend half their time fundraising.

Pretending that they aren't effected by who pays for their life effectively is insane

It's not confusing. It's looking at the world through a lense of class struggle and Imperialist interest.

I literally never said individual politicians aren't effected. But calling the US the "dog" of Israel is backwards. American capitalist interest are literally being enacted by our attack dog in the middle east.

If it helps you. Thinking of Israel as America's 51st state and APAIC as it's largest industries lobbying group would be closer to what the material relationship is. It's largest industry is just Americas settler colonialist project in the middle east.

Personally I think Israel is just the US bulldog in the region. The weapons Israel buys is for its own interests, the weapons they get for free is for the dirty work they do for the US : Yemen, Syria, Iran,...

[-] MTK@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Cool meme, but also apparently Israel does have it's own dog! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canaan_Dog

(I like dogs, not Israel)

[-] Genius@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 year ago

Just like Israel to take credit for a dog breed 9000 years older than the country itself.

[-] wheezy@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 year ago

The breed was promised to them over 9000 years ago by the prophet Vegeta. You're really letting your antisemitism show.

[-] Genius@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 year ago

Sorry, I didn't know. How many Arab babies do I have to shoot to make up for my mistake?

[-] wheezy@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The prophet Vegeta is disappointed that you even have to ask.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

WHAT 9000?!

[-] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

It sounds like it was bred from that earlier dog

>The Canaan Dog (Hebrew: כלב כנעני, romanized: Kelev kna'ani, Arabic: كلب كنعاني, romanized: kalb kanʿāni) is a dog breed developed in the early 20th century from semiwild pariah dogs that were the descendants of animals present in the region since biblical times.

[-] Crazycookie@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 year ago

You mean Palestine have its own dog

[-] McDropout@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It’s named after the natives, the canintes (and therefore, Canaan dog). While there are some terrorists in the terror state that are of caninite origin, most of them come from eastern europe. Hope this helps!

Also, all Israelis are terrorists. (Except minors and those who refuse to join the IOF)

[-] kadup@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Little typo on your meme, but that last one with the blueish flag isn't a country

[-] wheezy@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Some may say it isn't real.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, yes. Accurately observed.

[-] tatterdemalion@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Funnier without the text/caption.

[-] Crazycookie@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 year ago

The opposite of last one is true

[-] buttnugget@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I came here to say this, so I’m glad someone else said it first. Anyone who thinks Israel calls the shots has no understanding of international relations and global politics.

[-] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's an insult to the newest British colony and the colonizers or in this case a vassal state and it's owners.

does the dog wag the tail or does the tail wag the dog?

[-] Mammal@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Increasingly I'm starting to suspect that the US is a client-state of Israel. It's the only way US domestic & foreign policy around the genocide makes sense.
