On Thursday, Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) appeared to suggest that Gaza should be “nuked” like Japan was during World War II in response to the shooting in Washington DC that killed two Israeli embassy staffers.
The congressman was asked [in an interview on Fox News if the shooting should change the course of Israel’s onslaught on Gaza. “Well, I think it speaks to the importance of the only end of the conflict is the complete and total surrender by those who support Muslim terror,” Fine replied.
“In World War II, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese. We nuked the Japanese twice in order to get unconditional surrender, that needs to be the same here,” Fine added.
Wouldnt nuking Gaza be really really bad for Israel too? Its not like the fallout gonna stay in Gaza.
This shit isnt just malicious, its maliciously stupid.
Collective punishment is a war crime.
Indiscriminate use of force is a war crime.
Disproportionate use of force is a war crime.He’s openly calling for war crimes. Send him to The Hague.
Dude wasn’t even gazan wtf
Fine is a former gambling industry executive who drove loyalty programs to prey on gambling addicts. And before that he worked at McKinsey and Lehman Brothers.
As of we needed any more evidence that this guy was a piece of shit.
So he gets to call for nuking Gaza, and that gets him a major news story and top of Lemmy. Whereas I call for nuking Israel and my comment is deleted and I get a Lemmy ban. This is fucked!
Plead tell us your full name and we’ll also make a story out of you
…and then report you to the police as we do him.
Ok loser fucktard
Well said… So you can see how nasty are things right now in USA and in Israel. Thanks to lobbism and Trumps Admin “Israel First” and his total an “absolute commitment” to Israel genocidal policies.
“In World War II, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese. We nuked the Japanese twice in order to get unconditional surrender, that needs to be the same here,” Fine added.
Never trust anyone who traffics in rhetoric like this, full stop.
All wars have negotiated ends because they are called genocides when they don’t.
In World War II, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese.
We did both of these
Yes, and why was it not mentioned immediately after his quote in this article, let alone challenged immediately after he said it? Historical illiteracy is so common in news reporting. It’s embarrassing.
and why does he care so much, hes not even israeli!
Because they pay him to.
I think he wants to cheer for the genocidal team this time to balance it out.
Killing all of Gaza for the actions of one person? If that isn’t absolutely insane I don’t know what could be.
Maybe he should be nuked? Oh noes did I advocate violence?
can we get a stop electing such horrible fucking assholes
We dont. There is no democracy in that country.
You want to fix it? Establish a democracy
we’ve constructed a system that almost exclusively rewards people like this.
We? I mean, I don’t recall being consulted on this
As long as horrible fucking assholes stop breeding, sure. The problem is that they’re also the biggest fucking dumbasses so they just keep on poppin’ ‘em out.
Fucking dumbasses having kids who grow up to be decent people and disown them has definitely been known to happen though
Not often enough to rely on, that’s for sure.
