It's not about "taking the assholes out". It's about showing the Israeli government officials, and the constituents who are actually able to pressure those officials and exert collective power, that you can't just indiscriminately murder people without inciting the exact same violence onto your own people. As long as bombs are falling, why should they be contained to the side that is completely powerless to stop them?

This is the first legit response I've received thus far, so I want to thank you for that.

You make a good point - one I can kind of get behind. My initial comment, however, was in response to the idea of using nuclear weapons on them - that's far too indiscriminate a weapon to be using, and one that will have lasting effects that spread beyond Israel. Nuclear fallout won't stop at Palestinian borders, for example.

Civilians are dying either way. Fuck it, launch the nukes!

For the same reason America bombed Japan: less casualties that way, and maybe we will get more femboys and anime out of them.

I've no idea how strong North Korean nukes are, but I'd be surprised if they weren't significantly more powerful than those used on Japan.

Besides, as repressed as the truly Orthodox Jews come off to me... there's probably plenty of what you're after already. Nuking them might make glow-in-the-dark femboys, tho, so there's that...
