True, but one would think that with all the knowledge we have at this point in history that we would start to realize that there are better ways.

We can actually all live and not fight, if we could get out leaders and governments to work together.

Agree with your sentiment but you are thinking rationally. Try reasoning with someone who thinks totally irrationally. You can’t comprehend the way they think.

Where’s the outrage about Israel using human shields?

Hahahahahahaha. What an idiot. The human shield only applies if those attacking pause out of fear of collateral damage. Nobody attacking Israel would give two shits about collateral damage. In fact that would get them bonus points. You and Rashida Tlaib make a great duo.

The US economy fell into a recession, we had gas shortages and rationing, and a President basically lost an election because of oil supply issues in the Middle East in the 1970s. It's naive to think "we can purchase oil from the Middle East without meddling politically" when the supply of oil is so critically important to our economy.

It’s everything to our economy. Don’t believe me. Watch Landman. Tommy Norris will educate you

Pretty much "day-in-the-life" stuff for Israelis. 300 missles were shot from Gaza at Israel last year

Im pretty sure 300 missiles were launched during that video. Its sort of like getting a year's worth of rain in a day and shrugging it off as no big deal.

A third rate cable tv drama is a legitimate source for historical economic analysis?

That brings a lot of your opinions into sharp focus.

Not 3rd rate
Your sarcasm meter is broken
Oil is the single most critical resource to our economy. Not even close.
 
I’d be curious to know Iran’s thought process on their counter attacks. Their aerial assault seems like just a big waste of money.

It is a good question. It's all they got I guess...We shall see

It’s not all they got. We shall see all right. We shall see in NYC. London. Paris. Their followers and sympathizers will hold everyone in the West accountable and they’ll strike in any ways they can.

I’m afraid you may be correct. If history tells us anything, sometime in the future we may see car bombs at roadside cafe’s, subway bombings, airplanes going down… all kinds of calamity happening in those same cities you’ve cited (and other cities). These things may not happen straight away and they could be well over a year or two from now. And if/when they happen, everybody will be like: WTF? Why now? Why here? Who did this? What was that for? Damn “towel heads!” We’ll get you for this!
 
This might be it for Iran. They are making threats against US bases. If they act, Trump will have no choice but to finish them.

I bet they don’t see the irony of this post.

Just to reiterate, targeting of any civilian of any side is wrong and should be condemned

"targeting of any civilian of any side is wrong and should be condemned"

Agree. Civilian collateral damage isn't the same as targeting them, however.

Israel's target is enemy combatants and terrorist leaders. While targeting members of those two groups, civilians are inadvertently killed....as is common in war and is exacerbated by the fact that Hamas wants civilians to be killed.

How difficult it must be to bend and twist the way you do to distort the facts. You must be very limber.

When you attack any location with a civilian populace, you are targeting civilians. Period.
