    By that logic, since Trump supports Israel and says that Israel should finish the job, should Israel now also be proud?

        Absolutely! Just not agreeing with the logic that there’s any meaning behind some dipshit supporting the same thing you do. Although I admit that I chose a bad example.

      Do you feel like there are only two choices? I support Israel striking back when Hamas started a war they had no chance of winning. Doesn’t mean I support how they’re doing it and I don’t think the crimes they’re committing currently are any good.

      So yes, they should feel “proud” a scumbag like Trump endorses them.

      In an ideal world both the students and Israel would say “wait, that piece of shit says we’re doing good, maybe we should take 5 to rethink what we’re doing”. But we don’t live in an ideal world.

      As a side note, I truly envy people who can view things so clearly so easily, like unequivocally supporting Palestine or Israel without seeing the very shitty things both are (or were recently) doing. While I envy such people, I definitely don’t want to be around them - people who have easy answers to complex issues are rarely correct.
