    The clones where already phased out by the time of the alliance to restore the republic, it was the empire that had wiped them out (always pull up the ladder behind you).

    On a more serious note: the ‘both sides bad’ point is a bit moot when many western nations (including the USA and UK, where most english speaking twit-lords come from) are actively providing financial and military support to one of those sides. If it were discovered MI6 had been smuggling missiles then we could talk about what how to put a stop to it.

      And few mention the long term support both financially and military aid provided to Hamas by Iran to attack Israel. Much like they support the Houthis in firing missiles at shipping.

      There is a shadow war happening right now. I find it interesting that Hamas launched their attack on Israel and then the Houthi followed up by attacking global shipping vessels with missiles in the Straights of Hormuz. Both factions receive money and weapons from Iran.

      Who is right and who is wrong mostly depends on who you want to see do the genocide. But a genocide will happen in that region one way or another.

        Just like how preventing the genocide of poles/jews/gypsies in europe required the counter-genocide of the German people?

        Confict between Iran and the west does not need to be settled in Gazan hospitals. Why I ought I support the actual in-progress genocide because of the hypothetical genocide that would be carried out in absence of western support, espacily given that Isreali military spending alone is already twice Iranian? Withdrawing support from Isreal would not wipe the nation out, just cause it to place greater weight on international support (and thereby international law) when conducting their war.
