Posts don't get deleted on HN, except on rare occasions when the author asks us to delete something (and usually then only if they didn't get replies).

Posts do get flagged and/or killed, whether by user flags, software, or mods, but you can always see all of those if you turn 'showdead' on in your profile. This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.

If you notice a post getting flagged and/or killed that shouldn't have been, you can let us know and we'll take a look. You can also use the 'vouch' feature, also described in https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.

I'm a realpolitik American that wants America's best interest, which is why I 100% oppose Israel's war. Israel has spent decades playing us for fools, disregarding all our concerns and making the world hate us while taking billions of our money. Here is how Netanyahu talks about us: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW8TxOwYte0

In another post, my comment about Act.IL and Hasbara Fellowships were not only mass downvoted, but after being killed the commenter indicated this was their intention and wished me a nice day. Felt creepy. Dang brought it back up, to his great credit.

Im curious, if you’re realpolitik american.

Can you explain why would the USA support one country instead of appeasing 300 million in the area?

What are the benefits out of being so pro israel?
