But you won't. Nobody's accountable. Nobody was accountable for iraq. Nobody was accountable for lybia. Your country lies and lies and you're too cowardy to face the criminals unless they are poor ghettos black people. They can create war out of lies and destroy countless lives, not only are they free but they get media attention to endorse whichever warcrimers gonna suck dicks next.

You make me sick.

So you're saying Americans should those up against the two party system. So, a revolution. Overthrow the system. Which means killing each other. And oddly, every violent revolution ever has ended up with a more authoritarian result.

So your plan to reduce the killing in Palestine is... More killing in the US followed by a US regime that would help Israel finish the job faster?

Historically, revolution has resulted in more democratization and less "authoritarianism." From the brutal Tsarist Regime in Russia, to the fascist slaver Batista regime in Cuba, to the nationalist Kuomintang regime in China, revolution reduced inequality and gave more power to the people compared to their absolute squalor before.
