The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum Right doing the work of the left

I think we can take a nuanced perspective on this topic. If you include the power and propaganda aspects of the debate then the powers that control Israel - not Israel itself - but the security and communication apparatus - may be having a much greater influence on our politics. Radical Islam will deservingly receive all of the negative press they have earned and then some. I’m more concerned with the collateral damage and dehumanization of the citizens of any given nation who are often underrepresented - this includes Russians, Ukrainians, Israelis-Jewish or otherwise, Palestinians, etc, etc. As long as we take the agendas of any given nation at a moral face value, I’m ok with the reasonable reporting of more reliable outlets. Hopefully, the people of these nations are being respected and well represented by their leaders(hopefully ethically & legitimately appointed). I don’t expect a more conspiratorial perspective to rightfully gain traction as there would be too much guess work involved. I do think neo-cons have cozied up with dangerous elements of Islam (lesser evils) in the past - but I have nothing too specific in mind when I say that. But I think the power dynamic favors Israel and sometimes to our own detriment, but I’m not looking to engage in specific examples or possible hypotheticals.

I do believe Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, etc, have gone way off the rails. I would ignore them.
